Batch Baking

Emily and her cakes are amazing!
On a last minute decision, my brother and I flew up from Orange County to San Francisco to surprise my dad for his birthday and I needed a delicious cake within a few days to complete the surprise.
Emily promptly communicated via email and was able to deliver a cake within the short time frame needed. She even included birthday candles in the box. Fantastic customer service!
The cake was an apple bundt cake that was so moist and delicious! Everyone raved about how tasty it was; nothing like the typical vanilla or chocolate cakes found at most bakeries.
Thanks again Emily! I will have to try your other goodies next time I’m in Bernal Heights :)

Emily Guzzardi is AMAZING! Her baking skills are beyond incredible! She was with Munchery for a long time, where we ordered her baking goods several times a week. We have been greatly saddened that Emily is no longer with Munchery. We contacted both Emily and Munchery to express our dismay that her cookies, desserts and blueberry bran muffins are no longer available. Emily was kind enough to share her recipes with us, but our baking skills cannot match her baking expertise and talent. Don’t miss out on any of Batch Baking special treats!

Emily is the best! Her delectables are delicious and she is very easy and pleasant to work with. Prices very reasonable as well. Buy her stuff NOW!

Nom. Nom. Nom. Nom. And last but not least, NOM!
Batch cakes are what causes my wife and I to fight over the last bite. Now its become where we both have to get separate pieces and keep it hidden from each other. Such distrust can only be caused by something so delicious.
I love all her cakes, but my favorite is the Chocolate Guinness Stout Cake.
Why?
Perfect amount of moistness, density, right type of chocolate used. Not over sweet, not looks good but tastes terrible.
My wife and I love chocolate cake, and this has to be the best one we have ever had. There I said it, now I dread saying it because it would increase its demand and mean less opportunities for me to find a slice of it!
My second favorite is Sour Cream Coffee Café.
Its like cake after cake of perfection. This is what I had first had that made me fall in love with Batch Bakery, not only did it do that, it went so well with coffee that it made me an overnight coffee addict. Had to have coffee to get to eat cake, leading to addiction to coffee. Go figure!
Oh yea, everything else that Emily bakes is AWESOME too!

Emily (and Batch Baking) is (are) *AMAZING*!
After searching high and low for a special birthday surprise (and being rejected by a few places due to order size, delivery times, etc), I came to a conclusion: birthday cookie delivery to my boyfriend’s office could not be topped. So, what’s a girl to do?
Hit up Batch! I sent Emily a note, including the date and time of my request, and she was beyond prompt to respond. I provided further details and hinted that I wanted to do something birthday-​esque — and low and behold, the cookie ordered was delivered with birthday candles and a special birthday note. Best part? Emily sent me a delivery confirmation immediately after drop-​off. How do I know? The telling «sent from my iPhone» at the bottom of the email.
While I didn’t get to sample any of the goods (the bf’s coworkers gobbled them up), I heard rave reviews (mostly for the oatmeal & beadie options).
I would wholeheartedly recommend Batch — and will definitely be placing orders in the future.

What an amazing bakery! Delicious cookies (Chai ones were awesome, as were oatmeal/​chocolate/​dried cherry with sea salt) and great customer service. I highly recommend BATCH!

We ordered a variety of cookies today for our sons Birthday. Emily delivered them for us to our sons office. The cookies had a bow and gift card included. He shared with others in the office and all loved the cookies. We lived out of the are and are so happy we have found a bakery in San Francisco as wonderful as this. We will use Batch Baking. Thank You for your awesome cookies. Only wish I could have tried one too!

This is the best baking I’ve ever experienced!
Chai cookies? So delicious!
Olive oil cake? To die for!
The caramels taste similar to those See’s candy lollies, but way better. They are also chewy instead of hard.
Very delicious treats, and I don’t even have a sweet tooth.

I was looking for an online cookie delivery service in the city and wanted to order cookies from someone else but they had a prior engagement and recommended Emily of Batch Baking. She’s AWESOME!
I was out of town and wanted to surprise the bf with cookies on his birthday so ordered the following cookies:
Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
Mascarpone Brownie Bites with Chocolate Ganache
Beadies
Chai Cookies
Triple Ginger Cookie
Grammy’s Chocolate Brownie Cookies
Mexican Chocolate Cookies
Spritz Cookies
Unfortunately, when I got back there weren’t any for me to try since he had polished them all up! However, I will take his word for it that they were delicious!
I highly recommend Emily of Batch Baking. She was friendly to talk to and prompt in responding to my queries and emails. I would definitely order from her again or recommend anyone else to!

I went to an amazing wedding on Friday and saddled on up to the bar to get myself a cocktail. Much to my surprise, I looked down to see a beautiful bowl full of carefully wrapped caramels. Caramels? YUM! Who could resist?
I decided to try one of the lighter colored caramels. Creamy texture, melt-​in-​your-​mouth goodness, hmm. is that cinnamon I taste? What a nice surprise! Woah, now what’s going on in my mouth? A little kick? Oooh yes. The subtle twang of jalapeño. Just enough spice to take notice, not enough to send me running for that drink. What a divine little piece of candy! I’m not sure how she got that whole time-​release action to work so that I got three different flavors at three different moments, but it was magical.
Of course, I had to investigate the other type of caramel in the bowl, so I picked up one of the dark brown caramels. This one was completely different. It was like eating a decadent piece of flourless chocolate cake. It was so rich and delicious, smooth and creamy, and hard to believe that that much chocolately goodness could be packed into a little caramel.
Let’s just say that I probably ate more caramels than etiquette would dictate that I should (you know. it’s nice to save some for the other guests!). But I just couldn’t resist. I also asked for the chef’s business card so that I could get more more more! I didn’t realize that she also made cookies. I cannot WAIT to try more of her phenomenal creations.

Emily’s cookies will charm you almost as much as she does. I was lucky enough to see her at the Verdi Club where she presented the inspiration for her inaugural speciality treat: the Beadie. Delicious! And clearly baked with love. Each time I try a new Batch creation, it is her devotion to making something you will truly truly enjoy that makes her a cut above. Ever the gracious hostess, full of passion for what she does, and with a range of perfectly delectable treats: A triple threat. My hat’s off to you, Batch!

I liked absolutely everything about my first Batch baking experience. I organized a tennis tournament, and wanted people to have a sweet treat on the light side. The cookies were visually beautiful, and people LOVED them. The whole box was devoured by the end of the day. I heard someone getting teased when they were on their 5^th Beadie bookie, but he was too happy to notice! :) Emily was also super-​professional. I made a mistake with the order date, and she fixed it perfectly, the day before the tournament. I will not hesitate to order from Batch again for future events!

I just went to my second party where BATCH cookies were the dessert. So good. I mean, so good. There were 5 different kinds offered. I was eating one with coconut and said to the woman standing next to me «oh, this has got to be the best» to which she replied, «people say that about every one they taste.»
So there is the signature BEADIE, which is kind of the perfect cookie, with rainbow sprinkles and all. Not too rich, not too sweet, not too anything. Just good enough that if you find yourself in front of a plate of them, you might just eat them all.
And based on my encounters with these cookies, it seems that BATCH offers cookies for big parties (I had them at a big school fundraiser) and for smaller affairs (a large backyard picnic).
Wish I knew where to get them on a daily basis. Wish I could just sit in her kitchen and eat the cookies that don’t make the final cut.
Did I say SO GOOD?

full disclosure: i know the owner personally.
full disclosure: her cookies are freaking amazing.
full disclosure: try her Beadie cookie… so ridiculously good. think cookie/​cake/​lemon glaze/​fun sprinkles.
full disclosure: order her cookies for events, or if you just want to sit on the couch and gorge on cookies while you are watching a Love in the Wild marathon, not that i would ever do that.
