I had the sweet potato cake from Ray's Fish and Chicken in Sacramento and it was good. I wish it had more of a sweet potato flavor but that didn't stop me from eating the whole thing. It took me three days to eat it but it was still good after three days. I kept it in the fridge so I suggest warming the cake up for 10-15 seconds, the frosting melts but it's still very very good.

Ma'am, this cake is so delicious how can I buy a whole cake so I'm not buying just a slice every time thank you for your services in the community. Your cake is the bomb.

Bought a small peach cobbler, carrot cake cupcake and a German chocolate cake cupcake. My father passed away 4 months ago and I don't know what is sadder.... Him passing or me never trying this delicious bakery. The carrot cake tasted like something out of heaven. Made by a grandma from the Midwest or something. The German chocolate cake had me feeling like I was in Obersrdorf again. Enjoying a delicious desert near a warm fire after a long day of skiing. The peach cobbler reminded me of a long lost life once lived in the state of Georgia. It was like when Ego, the food critic from Ratatouille, tastes the ratatouille and a wave of nostalgia, love and comfort washes over him. The man behind the counter was very welcoming and friendly. The store it self is tucked away in a strip mall but is quiet and clean. Very mellow place. A must try for any desert lover. 9 thumbs up!

Parking can be a bit tricky, sometimes you have to circle around the lot. Once inside, the store is kept rather dark and non- descript. The menu is well placed and the dessert display makes your saliva glands go into overdrive! We got 7up pound cake. Lemon Bundt cake, sweet potato cake and sweet potato pie. All were freshly baked and super delicious. Not too sweet, very moist and rich. The staff was very helpful in ordering. Each cake was big enough to serve 12 generous slices. Next time I want to try the caramel cake! You can buy whole cakes, or by the slice. With or without the cream cheese frosting, each was delicious! Congratulations on satisfying our sweet tooth!

This place is a hidden gem. Don't be fooled by the icing being too much and sweet. I like to eat mine a little cold. They have cakes and different varieties of large cupcakes, sliced cakes, and whole cakes. The owners are friendly. the red velvet with pecans is my to go-to. Must try if you're in the city of San Lorenzo.
