The Cakery

Did you know that the original owner of Schubert's on Clement is the same person who, after selling Schubert's, opened the Cakery in Burlingame? Had a nice chat with Sales Associate Rosa at the Cakery who enlightened me to this interesting tidbit. ... If you've been Following my reviews you will know... I am absolutely in love with Schubert's princess cake. This may explain why the princess cake at the Cakery has often been hailed as very similar to the one from Schubert's.Even though the Cakery has changed hands. They still offer memorably delicious cakes. I couldn't resist a slice of strawberry cream cake for lunch which was moist and light and ohh sooo good. Picked up a princess cake to enjoy with family and friends tonight.The verdict, while similar, I still prefer the Schubert's princess cake for its lightness and less sweet finish. Schubert's princess cake also has a more predominant almond flavor. Both memorably delicious. In fact, the consensus over the dinner table amongst friends and family was deeeelicious! And my cousin, who's the most important critique says I can bring the princess cake from either place over anytime!Would definitely return for either cake or to try the double chocolate cake which is Rosa's recommendation or coffee crunch cake that Mike C. recommended for next time. Suspect there will be many more times visiting the Cakery on Burlingame Avenue!

This place is nestled between popular cafe/bakeries, but in terms of food, I liked this place better! And there's no line. SMOKED SALMON ON CROISSANT - so good!! Their croissant is buttery and soft, and with a generous amount of salmon neatly packed in together. I kind of wish there was a sauce on the side to go with it. Bestie had the turkey wrap. He liked it but my salmon croissant was superior. Also the CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT CAKE (not the official name aha) this was so good! Dense and nutty with rich hazelnut and chocolate flavor. Best eaten the day of, as it dried out in my fridge aha.The interior feels quite empty, with some tables by the window, it might be cuter and more functional!

Really nice pastries and cakes! I ordered a few mini cakes for my birthday and they all were delicious and very creamy!Cute little bakery nestled in the heart of Burlingame. They've got everything! Cakes, cupcakes, custom made or by the slice. They have a website you can engage with them about orders or custom builds. They do cakes for all occasions. In ordered the Double Chocolate Mousse cake which was amazing! Very creamy and airy! This dessert will not weigh you down. The Swedish Princess slice is good, too, and creamy with berry jam layer inside. The Mango Mousse cake is vegan and surprisingly creamy and very good. Two little cake bars with lots of mango bursting on top of a graham cracker moist crust.I definitely recommend this bakery for all your sweets needs!

March is a busy month of friends and family members' birthdays. Appreciate a bakery dedicated to cakes. The Cakery is a small cake shop on Burlingame Ave in Burlingame. Parking is on the street. No dining areas but of course, there are benches along Burlingame Ave. Sometimes it's just nice to get a sample of cake slices versus a whole cake to celebrate a birthday. We enjoyed the vegan mango tarts, marjolaine cake, and dark chocolate mouse cake. The vegan mango treats came as two pieces and were so good if you prefer a fruity sweet treat. The marjolaine cake seemed dry to our taste. While the dark chocolate mouse cake was heavenly to taste as it was so light in sponge but gave you a good sample of dark chocolate that wasn't rich but just right in texture and smoothness. Will likely return for either a whole cake to order or just get a sample of goodies.

Five stars for their princess cake. I've gone only to get slices of their princess cake. Two stars for the service. The last time I went (Sunday after the farmer's market), the girl acted like I was bothering her...despite the place being absolutely empty. I asked her for a slice of the princess cake, which she proceeded to box up and shove across the counter before walking back to me at the register and ringing me up after a curt "Anything else?" I mean...I know it's not a big deal to walk a few steps to grab the box, but I just felt really uncomfortable with her entire demeanor -- all that was missing was an eyeroll. Every other bakery I've gone to would actually bring it over to the counter where I was standing (the register, in this case). Plus, she was back on her laptop even before I retrieved the box. Honestly, I'd happily go back every week for a slice of the cake, but that girl's attitude was really off-putting and made me feel unwelcome. Guess my money isn't good enough here. I'll find another bakery.

Very sweet staff and a super cute bakery in a busy shopping area of Burlingame. They were very accommodating when I needed to change the pickup time for my cake, and they even provided a candle and a happy birthday sign. The coffee crunch cake was delicious, but it's a cake you have to special order at least two days in advance! It's huge and heavy so be careful when transporting it! The cookies here also look delicious, so I can't wait to come back!

I ordered these lovely cupcakes to go! I loved the taste of the cake and how soft and decadent it is. The decoration of the cupcakes are beautiful! My coworkers and I enjoyed eating them!

Tried their chocolate cake and unfortunately it was disappointing :( it was dry and very spongey.

Door dashed a mango mousse cake, Oreo cupcake, salted caramel cupcake, and princess cake. The princess cake wasn't available so we sadly didn't get to try that, but the mousse cake was amazing flavor! The Oreo cupcake frosting was very delicious but both cupcakes were just okay. The salted caramel frosting didn't really taste like salted Carmel's and the chocolate cupcake could be richer. Overall, I think it was still good and would def order again to try the princes cake!

- A M B I A N C E - The interior was clean and the place had seating area both on the inside and outside. The place is usually empty inside so when you walk in, the employee is ready to help you or answer any questions that you have. They have some really nicely decorated cakes on display that you can see from the outside (I didn't take a photo).- S E R V I C E -The employee is friendly. The Swedish Princess looked very interesting to me and the employee was able to explain to me what the layers in the cake are.- F O O D -*Swedish Princess Slice*This airy sponge cake has layers of pastry cream, raspberry jam (i think), and whipped cream with it. It is covered by a layer of marzipan so the almond flavor was pretty noticeable when I first took a bite. I thought this cake is pretty unique.- P R I C E - A slice of Swedish Princess cake was $7.45, which is I think is decent for something like this. I also shared it with a friend and half a slice was more than enough for me after getting brunch nearby.
