Pasteleria Gama

After googling to try to find a good tres leches cake in the Twin Cities I noticed this one came up on several lists - I needed one for a birthday and was quoted $50 for this 6 inch cake. I was a bit nervous as $50 seemed a little high but after picking it up and seeing how gorgeous it was in person I was already happy with my decision.The best past was obviously cutting into and eating it! I bake frequently as a hobby and would pay $50 again for this cake in a HEARTBEAT. The texture, the flavor, the consistency in both the cake layer heights and how they were baked - it all was perfect. We got 8 generous slices out of this cake and everyone was able to enjoy the fresh fruit on top (although the dipped strawberries I think are the best!). It was perfectly soaked so that it wasn't dry whatsoever but also was able to stand up and not squish under the weight of the toppings. The cake also wasn't too sweet whatsoever (the boarder frosting on the bottom was a little sweet but there's so little of it it didn't make a difference). Overall definitely happy with this purchase and will be ordering from Pastelería Gama again in the future!

This was the best cake I've ever had! I found them on yelp and gave them a call to order a plain vanilla cake with frosting. It was moist and the buttercream frosting and filling were perfect. I had no idea how big of a cake or what I wanted and they were very very helpful and understanding. I bought this for my grandma's 80th birthday and she said it's the best cake she's ever had also. My whole family raves about it and they decorated it beautifully with fresh strawberries, strawberries, and a chocolate drip. Sadly I didn't get a picture but this will be my go to bakery now.

She's very friendly and the cake tastes amazing!!! She did exactly how I wanted it!!!

This is not your typical Mexican bakery. There are no pastries here. Pasteleria Gama makes cakes. And only cakes. "Pasteleria" means "cake shop" in Spanish.Entering the small shop one comes face-to-face with a huge display case filled with a variety of cakes in a rainbow of intense colors. A feast for the eyes (there is nothing subtle about the Mexican color palette).We pre-ordered a tres leches cake for a birthday celebration. The cake was ready when we arrived at the appointed time. While the counter person showed me the cake before packaging it, my eye kept wandering to the cake decorator in the rear of the shop. He was definately in his element, a "performance artist" carefully applying a layer of white frosting to a tall cake that slowly spun on a lazy susan. Had I not been in a hurry I would have stayed to watch him complete his work.Our 8" tres leches cake, which easily serves 12-15 people, was pricey at $30, but it was fabulous. Moist, but not soakingly wet. Flavorful frosting that was not too sweet. If you're in the mood for a very special cake for a special occassion, or just 'cause, give Paseleria Gama a try.

This cake was amazing wonderful cake, everyone commented had never tasted such a wonderful and moist cake! Thank you highly recommend!

Their cakes are amazing and so good that not even COVID 19 will make you not order from this guys. To me the experience was very pleasant, everything that I ordered, was ready on time and ready for deliciousness!!!Please open another store by Bloomington or Burnsville, please!

A friend picked up a lovely cake from Pasteleria Gama for my birthday last week -- it made my weekend. My housemates had never had tres leches cake and absolutely loved it. Not too moist or dry, delicious cream and such a beautiful presentation. We paired it with some fruit and it was just perfect. Thanks for making my birthday so great!!

We just enjoyed our second annual tres leches cake from Pasteleria Gama. Delicious! Special! Thank you!

After having a last-minute disaster making cupcakes for my son's wedding reception, I ran to Pasteleria Gama to see if I could get a cake. It was very last minute. The people there were so kind and accommodating. I got three beautiful tres-leches cakes. They were beautiful and a huge hit with the bride and groom, and all the guests. They saved me last minute! The cakes taste scratch-made, are moist and fresh. Just the right amount of sweetness, too. Very reasonably priced as well.

$$$140 for an 8 inch red velvet cake with cream cheese filling and buttercream frosting, decorated with lettering and some basic flowers. That's the price I was just quoted!!!! Hahaha!
