Oakland celebrations deserve extraordinary cakes. Whether you're hosting a birthday party near Lake Merritt, a wedding at a local venue, or an event at Jack London Square, our custom cakes become the centerpiece. We've been creating sculpted 3D cakes, ultra-realistic designs, and hand-decorated cookies for Oakland's culturally rich community where every neighborhood celebrates with its own flavor since 2012.
Delivery to Oakland takes approximately 25 minutes from our Wildwood Avenue bakery in Daly City. We also serve Downtown Oakland businesses and the growing Uptown district with branded cookies and corporate celebration cakes. Order by 2:00 PM for same-day delivery, or book your custom cake 2–3 weeks in advance for the perfect design.
Popular Oakland Celebrations We Cater
Oakland's vibrant event scene keeps us busy year-round. We deliver custom cakes and dessert tables to celebrations at the Oakland Museum of California, the Fox Theater, and Preservation Park's historic Victorian venues. Lake Merritt is a favorite spot for birthday picnics and engagement parties — our cake pops and boxed cookie sets travel perfectly for lakeside gatherings. We've catered corporate events at Kaiser Center, tech launch parties in the Uptown district, and graduation celebrations for Oakland Tech, Bishop O'Dowd, and Holy Names University. The Art Murmur First Friday celebrations along Telegraph Avenue, Oaktoberfest in Dimond, and the Chinatown StreetFest are community highlights where our themed cookies and custom treats make an appearance. Jack London Square waterfront events, from rehearsal dinners at Bocanova to private parties at Scott's Seafood, are a regular delivery stop for us.
