Well, I was tasked with getting the birthday cake for my in laws for their joint birthday party. To switch things up, I decided to get this fruit tart cake from R & J. I remembered how good this tart was at facility pot lucks a few years back. Well, the fruit tart was a hit once again! A pastry is considered good by an Asian person if it is described as "not too sweet." Everyone enjoyed that it didn't induce toothaches from the first to the last bite. The bonus: since this cake featured lots of fruits, we didn't feel as guilty about enjoying a slice or two.
My family has been coming here for years, if not decades. We love that the moist cakes aren’t too sweet (which is a huge Asian compliment aha). I would recommend the regular yellow cake with chocolate frosting (the frosting is rich and not overly sweet like most bakeries) or the fruit cake. The cakes are decorated well and are reasonably priced.

Fruit Tart Cake
I ordered a cake on Sunday for my dad's birthday and I asked specifically for a coconut green cake with fresh fruit on top. I asked for it to be ready on Tuesday. The lady kept saying Wednesday and I kept correcting her. My dad use to buy my birthday cakes here for years. Hence I wanted to get him a cake here, a trip from memory lane... but no, the lady who took the order was rude and even though I even asked her to repeat my order back to me and she confirmed it was a coconut green cake with fresh fruit on top, that was not what I got.
I got a round vanilla cake with coconut filling and I told her that wasn't what we talked about on the phone and she said that only the big cakes were green and that I should've ordered a big cake not a small one. I told her what was not what we agreed on. I still paid for the cake but I will not be coming back, or at least I'll have my dad order cakes, they'll probably be nicer if the person speaks vietnamese 😑
Lady with the short hair was rude and still had the audacity to forget the pick up date (good thing I called to confirm in the morning), and to tell me I was wrong when she was the one who was wrong.

Durian Cake
I ordered my two year old cake here, I choose this place because of the reviews. I disregarded the ugly location because I was hoping the cakes here would be wonderful and worth all the trouble.
First off the lady who I ordered the cake with was not very friendly and seemed upset, I asked her if they used fresh fruit on the cakes and she said..." Yes, fresh fruit." I asked her to let me taste the frosting they use on the cakes because I wanted to make sure it wasn't too sweet... Frosting taste was good so I decided to go ahead and take a chance and ordered a half sheet cake filled with strawberry and pineapple $27.00.
She asked me for a cash $10. Deposit on the cake ( very odd but, what ever.) I picked up the cake a few days later.
Okay cake looked good externally, frosting was not too sweet but... Cake it's self was fluffy but kinda dry she used canned pineapple which had absolutely no flavor the strawberries where just a few!!! I was so disappointed and upset this cake was actually one of the worst tasting cakes I've had it tasted like fluffy dried cake and frosting that's it! Horrible cake! It had such little moisture that when cutting it it would separate! ...And just to think that I left her a tip too... Well, never going here again.
ordered a cake and she told me it would be ready by 3 , came to pick it up and she told me that she didn’t have my order and i never ordered it. This place sucks don’t come here
