I like their services, they make very nice cakes, I ordered cakes 4 times in last 1 year and we like their products each time. On one occasion they also gave me complimentary pastry as well, I love you guys! They only thing which disappointed me was long waiting period each time, you would have to wait there for almost 30 minutes, so whenever you go there to pick up your ordered just be prepared for long waiting time.

I popped in here quite honestly by accident. It was next door to the produce place I was at and I thought I would check it out. Boy am I ever glad I did. I hadn’t had breakfast that morning and I tried one of their vegetable pies and WOW they were yummy. Just the right amount of spicy and filling. They even warmed it up for me while I waited. And, bonus, less than $ 2. I just wish I had a coffee to go with. Then, while I was waiting for it to be heated up I noticed they had sweet buns for sale. Now, I’m a chatty person. So, I mentioned to the fellow that while in the US recently I had some sweet buns there that I LOVED and he was willing to let me try one without purchasing the pack. That is the great thing about small businesses. They are friendly and allow you to try things when you ask. Now, I liked it enough to buy the rest of the pack but there was no expectation that I would have to do that when he opened it up for me! They sell cakes for all occasions with REAL buttercream icing and fresh fruit on top. My daughter is not a fan of the sugary icing so we will be back to get a cake for her birthday for sure! There were not very many decorated cake photos to choice from but she’s older so it’s not as big an issue now. So we actually did order the cake, and it was DELICIOUS. The mango buttercream icing was to die for. It was still a little sweet but not as bad as icing sugar cakes and the cake was amazing. The only bad part was I forgot to pick it up on Saturday and they are closed on Sunday. I was quite unimpressed that they didn’t call to tell me they were closing as they did have my number… so order the cake but don’t forget to go get it!

Damn you esm, I was trying to loose baby weight but was foolish enough to think«oh ill just have one cheat day and try some treats ». Needless to say I’m a fatty at heart. So hooked that I cried after finding out that they were close on Sunday and I couldn’t get my fix

After a quick search on Unilocal for last minute birthday cakei found ESM cakes ! So i took my chance with it, and their cakes taste amazing. Nothing like i’ve had before, there is he perfect amount of sugar in their cakes and not too much like other places, they also use buttercream as a base for all their cakes which is freshly made ! ESM Cakes is worth every penny, their service is completely fast(i called last minute the day before my brothers birthday) ! Im a happy customer and will definately be ordering more from them !

One word to describe: priceless. 31st of October 2013 After having read the positive reviews on Urbanspoon I made a call hours before my birthday man’s birthday dinner in hope of getting a cake. Quite a last minute plan to be quite honest. The owner told me they were in fact closed till the 3rd of September but could accommodate my request. I was thrilled. I was due to pick up the cake from the bakery around 1700 but could not do so until 2100. Amazingly, Shamas(the owner) went far and beyond in delivering the birthday cake to me by leaving his event a little earlier and opened up the bakery shop just so I could finally pick up the cake. The quality of the cake was delicious and the experience was invaluable to the fact it made our night. :)

I’ve seen ESM Bakery a few times when shopping in this strip mall. I stopped in to get some treats and was not disappointed. The owner(?) said they specialized in fancy decorated cakes, but can do custom orders of all kinds. I bought: brownies — possibly the best I’ve ever had, lighter than usual and with a chocolate dipped sides & top meat pies — good, but typical filo spinach spiral — delicious and very generous with the spinach. I’ll be back!
