Very consistent. They make a great white cake with strawberries. It's classic great for birthdays weddings anniversaries whatever. They're able to whip it up for 30 people in 2 to 3 hours. That's pretty darn amazing. Obviously you need to call and make sure they're not overwhelmed with business, but the last two times I got cakes for them. It was the best got plenty of positive compliments on how good the cake was from so many friends and family who tasted it. What else can you ask for? People who work there are very nice, accommodating, and really just down to good people. Support them.

2/3/22 From the outside, with its metal curtain/gate facade, it certainly looks unwelcoming & unappealing. This store has been a community fixture for so many years & it is well known in the neighborhood to boast many yummy delights. Been patronizing this bakery many times over the years, passed by it many times before back when my mom worked at the old LAC-USC county hospital-yes, that huge monstrosity of a building that stands over all of Boyle Heights! Never disappointed in my purchases & has fed the crew, both dayshift & nightshift, with many wonderful & aesthetically pleasing cakes. As I entered the premises (wondering how many years it has been since I've gone in), the kindly lady behind the counter asks what she help me with. I told her that everything looks so good & it might some time to decide which to purchase for the crew. I've been meaning to drop off a special piece for the ortho department at Keck Med. Center of USC (nursing unit, 6 North) for the wonderful job taking great care of me. I have to make sure to bring something for each shift (knowing fully well that nightshift doesn't get much, usually only leftovers from the day). Everyone MUST know, the nightshift has a special place in my heart, don't ever think that all patients are asleep at night-in fact, a lot of unspeakable things happen at night that makes the crew even more stellar. NOTE: bring a separate piece for nightshift** Many of my fellow/co-workers buy from Maria's for our unit's special occasions: birthdays, baby showers or for just enjoying sweets. You can call ahead to order or try your luck & get one that's already made from their fridge. The staff there has been very patient & accommodating. As I mentioned before, it could definitely use a makeover (from maybe 29 years ago LOL). It looks very rundown, otherwise it could've earned an extra star. Overall for the taste & aesthetics of their cakes: 5 stars for sure! Can't emphasize enough--CASH ONLY.

I love this little bakery! I have been coming here for years and was first introduced to this bakery by my mom who used to work at LA County. The cakes are tasty and fresh. They fill the cakes with a lot of fruit if you choose a fruit cake. We love to get the mango since they fill it with mango in and out. I also love that the cakes are not sickeningly sweet. Just remember, this place is cash only so don't forget to hit up the ATM before coming!
