AMAZING!!! I reached out to Two Chicks In the Mix and spoke with Malaka in search of a wedding cake baker for my wedding this past June. She was responsive and timely with her communication. We procrastinated and decided on a one-tier cake a little over 1 month out from our wedding originally with a different local baker. However they left us waiting for responses for days and as long as a week. With 3 weeks to go and anxiety riding high, I thought to contact Malaka again and inquire about a cake, noting how crunched we were for time. Malaka was swift with her response (that same evening) and offered us a price for a decorated 8 inch one-tier naked cake (to serve 35) with florals plus delivery to Sunol for a very reasonable price!! We immediately cancelled with the first cake baker and finally relaxed knowing we were in good hands. Their business locally sources and decorates all their own cakes with florals which I love and support. Our flower vendor gave us a bit of resistance about this because they were afraid outside florals would be lower in quality and negatively affect their branding if the incorrect business was credited for the cake flowers on social media. We reassured them that Two Chicks would be tagged for the cake flowers. We then gave Two Chicks the same color scheme and flower/greenery type that our florist would use and trusted them to take care of the rest. Well lo and behold, the flowers looked absolutely GORGEOUS and seamlessly blended in with the rest of our wedding decor. The cake was absolutely delicious and retained its quality even after sitting out for 4 hours on a relatively warm spring day. We received tons of compliments about how delicious the cake was (we went with the Lavender and Earl Grey). We loved our cake so much that we ordered cake for Father’s Day which my father loved and was incredibly delicious. I would highly highly recommend Two Chicks not only for wedding cakes but for any occasion. They are true professionals and bring consistency, quality, creativity, uniqueness, and passion into what they do. Support this black-owned business! We will continue to do so. Thank you so much!!

Like everyone else says... "I NEVER write reviews" but Two Chicks in the Mix has gone above and beyond for our COVID disaster of a wedding. Original wedding was in Northern CA and we ended up moving our micro-wedding to Southern CA and TCITM didn't even bat an eye at moving our order down to their LA bakery. I have also had a million and one changes regarding what desserts we are allowed to bring to the venue, and they have been so accommodating.

These tough times truly show business owners true colors, and Malaka and Erica have been nothing short of incredible (and that cannot be said for all my vendors!) Thank you ladies for being fantastic to work with but of course, having the BEST desserts I have ever tried. We appreciate you!!

We ordered a dessert bar for our wedding from Two Chicks in the Mix. We first met Malaka at the University Club’s wedding vendor showcase. The samples tasted great, and we set up a time to do a tasting in Oakland. We ended up ordering red velvet brownies, s'mores cupcakes, rhubarb parfaits, ginger molasses cookies, and a small cutting cake. Malaka was great at helping us think through flavor profiles which combo of desserts to serve. She was also accommodating when we wanted to add some gluten-free desserts to our order.

On the day of the wedding, the desserts were delivered on time and laid out beautifully, and they were a big hit with our guests. Plus, we could get a deposit back when we returned the cake stands for our display, so we didn’t end up having to pay extra for the beautiful arrangement! (This isn’t the case with a lot of other vendors.)
