VG Donut & Bakery

s. I have been going to VG's for over 30 years and they have the best everything!

are CIA agents or something. We needed some extra information of the drivers so they could give go through security for our venue which they refused to give so we had to escort them. Not a big deal except it's one more thing I have to coordinate on an extremely hectic day and every other vendor I used was so understanding and forthcoming with their information. The reason I removed a star is mainly because they wouldn't even give out the driver's phone number so I couldn't call to check on the status of the cake the day of which made getting through security 10X more complicated. To be fair they did warn me that they wouldn't give out any personal information when we booked them. I just didn't realized that meant that I would be stressing about the cake the entire morning of my wedding. Could you get a business cell phone or something to help us out please?

our dessert table. Everything was delicious and several people mentioned this! We were able to take leftovers home! Yummy!!! Thank you and would definitely recommend them for any event!

rt table with donuts, it was great!!

y delivered everything to our venue and tasted amazing. We got so many compliments on how good they were.

! We would highly recommend them for your next event!

to go with a small cake and several different flavors of donut bites. Our guests raved about the cake and donuts and unfortunately for us, there was not much to take home afterwards because they were all eaten! Thank you Janette for making everything seamless and a breeze!

pick up more! They were also so so so much cheaper than any other cake or doughnut place we looked at, AND tastier! It was perfect, thank you for making our wedding so yummy! It's a month later and friends are STILL asking where they can get more doughnuts lol.

our dessert bar too. We ended out getting multiple different kinds of desserts and they were all a hit. Also, everything was so reasonably priced! VG Donuts and Janette were so organized, easy, and wonderful to work with we wouldn’t hesitate for a second to go with them again!

s able to figure out how many cookies, brownies, and donuts we needed. A huge hit!!!

gh some were worried if they would be elegant enough I think they looked very classy! Especially since with different flavors came different colors! They also have gluten free cookie selection (the lemon was amazing) if you need them! everything was great! no complaints, super happy we picked them!

ly recommend to future brides and grooms!

titive prices. I definitely recommend using them for weddings!

vered the donuts to our wedding venue on time, it was all reasonably priced, and their communication was awesome. Thank you to the VG donut team for helping make our wedding day so special!

a slice. Our wedding cake was such a hit! The best part was that it was far from dry , it was moist and full of flavor. They have the BEST donuts and pastries too ... just saying.

rip with peanut butter cups on top (my husband's favorite)! It looked and tasted great! As a busy bride, I only wish I would've gotten to eat more at the wedding!

ous, and beautiful cakes.

nt party.vote for the flavors of the wedding cake. Janette was very responsive and everything tasted amazing. The edible flowers on the cake were a great touch that made it that made it that much more special. Thank you VGs!!

e that everything was taken care of. Our guests loved our cake! Thank you VGs!

esserts and cake we chose were delicious and the guests LOVED them. Janette was so helpful in suggesting how many desserts and how much cake to order so that we had the right amount for our guests. I am so glad I live close by and use VG for other events.

ve a donut! Janette is the events manager and she was so incredibly sweet and helpful. We got to sample entire cakes to take home and plenty of donuts and other baked treats. I still can't believe we spent so little for quality baked goods. Thank you, VG!!!

e what cake and donuts we wanted. During our tasting we were given 2 full cakes to take home, which we did not expect. We had so much left over that we froze the cake and ate some of it later… and it still tasted just as good! In the end we chose to do a smaller cake and a donut bar, which worked perfectly. The delivery of our cake was so seamless that I didn’t even see the delivery person…. The cake just showed up and was beautiful. All of our wedding guests loved our cake and donut bar. We received so many compliments. We even had a full sheet cake left over after the wedding that we enjoyed. I can’t say enough good things about VG Donuts- I can’t wait to have another event to buy a cake and/or donuts from them. If you are not having an event, it is worth the drive up to Cardiff just for the donuts!

t my choices for everything so that I wouldn't need to stress over it! So glad that I was able to experience such an amazing gem!! Thank you VG Donuts!! I will definitely recommend you!!

ttled on the banana cake with chocolate bavarian cream and a tier with dulce de leche cream. We also threw in doughnut bites and cookies. I am drooling just thinking about it. The staff at VG's was extremely helpful and the design was exactly what we wanted. You can't go wrong with anything you order!

er cake along with a dessert bar with donuts, of course. Everything tasted SO good. We had a very simple cake design so I can't really speak to their ability to do more intricate cake decorating. The dessert bar ended up being one of the most affordable parts of our wedding. We are so happy with the way everything turned out, and we highly recommend VG Donut!

o delicious. I highly recommend!

o :-) They even delivered all the bake goods to our venue so we did not have to worry about a thing. The entire process of working with VG's was an easy and enjoyable one. Whenever we are in Encinitas, we always stop in for something sweet.

s and easy to work with and their prices cannot be beat. Not only that, the donuts and cake were INCREDIBLE and people haven't stopped telling me how great they were. My only regret is that i didn't have time to eat more donuts at the wedding!

and sprinkles. Loved VG so much!

y filling options as well so it's easy to customize the taste. They also were very easy to work and very affordable. I would highly recommend them!

and your spouse-to-be, with family, whoever you want! I loved being able to take my sample flavors home to our in-law's and taste testing together... and also taking to our catering tasting to see what complemented our meals. They offer two complimentary 7" sample cakes, and each one after is $5. We decided to go with the Chocolate and Raspberry bavarian cream combo and it was DELICIOUS. We still have guests telling us about how yummy the cake was. What's special for us is that VG's was one of the first places my husband and I visited when he first showed me around San Diego, his home town. It became our go-to bakery for coffee and donuts (usually after a trip to Pipes for breakfast burritos). So it was a no brainer we'd choose it for our wedding cake. The decoration of our cake turned out so beautiful. We worked with Janette for all of our cake needs/questions and she was pretty good at getting back with answers and suggestions. Now we did go with a design we had found ourselves across different Pinterest/Image search sites and tried to make our own, and we ended up working out a compromise for the design ideas because some ideas may have been a bit too complex to work out. I ended up loving the cake design we got from the bakery and so many loved and took pics of it also. Thank you to the VG's team for the great work and delicious cake!

you're in the area!

commend.

cake we needed and didn't try to up-sell us. The design options they have are gorgeous and amazing!

e!! I only wish they would offer a service to set up the table as well.

and everything was so good. They displayed them beautifully at the venue and everyone loved them. Also, their price point is great! We were so happy to have a local bakery bake our wedding desserts.

t home without any leftovers! The venue staff had to stash some desserts in our room just to make sure we got some! Janette was extremely helpful from the start, always responsive to our emails. My husband and I both grew up eating VG donuts so it was extra special to have them at our wedding. The delivery fee all the way to Temecula was very reasonable and everything arrived in perfect condition. And two extra perks of using VG's - at the tasting, they literally give you cakes to take home and share with friends and family, which is amazing, AND you don't have to worry about saving the top tier of your cake because they'll give you a free cake on your anniversary! No freezer burn cake!

t affordable cake option!! Great value and the cake looked and tasted amazing. We did cookies and donut bites and everyone loved the dessert! If you're looking for a wedding cake vendor look no further!! They also give you a free cake on your anniversary so you don't need to freeze the top!

eet cake for guests, in two flavors: chocolate cake with chocolate Bavarian cream and white cake with Bavarian cream with fresh strawberries. For our donut bar, we had cake & raised donuts in a 4 flavors, donut bites, doissant bites and cookies. Janette predicted the donut & doissant bites would be the most popular, and she was right - we should have ordered more of them! We did taste with two other bakeries, and one had slightly tastier cakes, but we chose VGs since they were about as good, but for a much less price, and had friendlier service to boot. We highly recommend VGs!

ream. Jeanette was our contact and she was a pleasure to work with. She was very friendly and creative. Another perk is when you go for your tasting, you don't just get a sliver of cake, they give you a 7" cake to take home in the flavors you request. This was nice because we were able to taste it for days and share it with family members to see what everyone liked.

avor. The only “trouble” with so many flavors is that it is hard to taste them all! Their tasting is kind of cool because you get to take home two whole 7 inch cakes for free! If you want to try more you just pay a small fee and get to take home whatever you want. Don’t be fooled by the “small” amount of frosting…day of the cakes are beautiful and have a great amount of frosting (buttercream), cake and filling! They were prompt on delivery which was great. And best of all you get great cake at a very reasonable price for wedding cakes. VG Donuts are incredibly busy though so there is a lot of “call backs” rather than talking to the right person right away. One other bonus is that they give you a full 7 inch cake for your 1 year so you don’t need to keep the top of your cake if you don’t want to.

l feast-like dessert table with the most wonderful tasting pies, small cakes, donuts, cookies, brownies, and donut bites. AND we even had plenty that everyone was able to take some home in little to-go boxes we had set out – making our guests very happy :). We worked with Janette, who is incredibly easy to work with and made the whole process no big deal. She didn’t even need our final order until up to about a week or so before the wedding. And MOST importantly, when you go for a tasting, then give you TWO full cakes!!! Yummmmmyyyy :).

ur life. We loved being able to have our cake cutting "moment" but also chow down on donuts afterwards. Janette at the bakery is such a pleasure to work with as well. Very sweet, very responsive, and very on top of everything. Can't say enough good things about this place!

keries do, they send you home with 2 full 7" cakes to try with all your friends! Want more? It's just $10 a cake after that. They also provide a free mini cake for your anniversary, so you don't have to save and freeze the top layer. Janine was our point of contact and she was a joy to work with. She answered all questions quickly and made sure we got the best bang for our buck within our allotted budget. the desserts were so good the whole bar was empty before we even cut the cake! I will definitely remember and use VGs for future dessert needs, and have already recommended to friends and family!

bakeries, you do not have to pay to taste the cake AND you take a two whole cakes home for free. The service was impeccable and the quality of the cake was beyond any other. I highly recommend booking VG Donut & Bakery for your next event.

were also recommended to us by so many people for our cake too. I have always heard that VG's cakes are amazing...and they did not disappoint. The cake was so good (even though I actually only got a few bites)! It was super moist, and they offered great flavors. There tasting process was really fun too...they made us two small cakes to take home and taste with our family! Our parents got to enjoy the tasting as well. My cake turned out so beautiful, and exactly how I wanted it. They do not use fondant, so I was a little worried when I brought them a picture of a fondant cake. But they used buttercream frosting (which is way better anyhow), and it turned out so smooth, it looked just like the fondant cake picture that I brought them. And you don't have to save the top of your cake; they give you a free one on your anniversary. I am looking forward to finally getting to eat some of our wedding cake next April:) One last thing to say...the price was unbeatable! I had a three tiered wedding cake for under $400. This was the best deal around, and the most delicious!

before the wedding and I am so happy that I trusted this business! There was more then enough cake left over. They are so generous with the size of the cakes and it is very very affordable! I would definitely use this company for any occasion!

hen it came to showing them pictures of what kinds of designs we wanted!

r options, and cake designs. She was very friendly and helpful. They even made me two sample cakes to take home and try. Needless to say I loved their cakes and ended up booking them for our wedding. They designed a beautiful three tiered cake just the way I asked. They delivered the cake on time the day of and we got so many compliments on it. Our venue was in Rancho Santa Fe, so the delivery price was relatively low. All in all this place is a gem. Quality product, friendly service, and fair prices. I would highly recommend them to make your wedding cake.

what I wanted but because I lived out of state I had to try to finalize everything over email. In the end I didn't get exactly what I wanted but overall I was still satisfied with the appearance quality and taste of my cake. I would have given this vendor 5 stars if all of the items I had requested for my cake were done the way I wanted. Specifically, I had requested seashells on the bottom edge and paid extra for them but when the cake was delivered there we no shells! However, they were great about refunding me the extra money back.

t delicious white cake with fresh strawberries, and Chocolate cake with dulce de leche cream inside. Who Knew VG's made amazing cakes too!! It was beautiful as well. Our Dessert bar was Perfect! Thanks VG's!!

ss replicated perfectly pictures I had sent her and was so sweet to help me keep it a secret. Moreover, VG’s has other amazing desserts (especially their doughnuts!) if you want to do a dessert bar. Lastly, they’re prices are definitely affordable. I’m not one to spend thousands of dollars on a wedding cake so VG’s is great because we got a picture-perfect cake without going over budget. VG’s is an amazing bakery and we recommend them for any wedding or event.

anner suggested them as well. They did not disappoint. They also did a gluten-free cake!! Great family business and did everything perfectly.

ey send you home with two 8inch round cakes to try at home and you can order additional cakes for $5 each. This seemed a little weird and restrictive since you can't taste all the flavors and fillings, you need to have a better idea of what you want already. We mixed the flavors and fillings around and had white cake with strawberry and cream filling and did the chocolate cake with mocha filling and have banana cake with cream for our topping. The cake was moist and very tasty. We ordered a cake for 150 people for 50 guests and though we would have a lot left, but people actually ate the cake because it was so good. We and our family and friends also kept eating the left-overs the few days after the wedding that everyone was still in town, so the cake didn't go to waste! Jess is busy so she can be difficult to get a hold of by phone, but everything worked out. Also the delivery was late but our wedding coordinator got them there on time. They gave us extra macaroons to make up for it which we certainly didn't mind! I would definitely recommend them!

ctacular!

ess was fantastic to work with. They have a book full of wedding cake designs that you can pick, and they are willing to work with you regarding colors, designs, etc. The best part is that you are allowed to take home the cakes to taste! The flavors are all so good it makes it hard to decide to pick just one...and you don't have to! VG's can make each tier of the cake a different flavor. On the day of the wedding, VG's dropped off the wedding cake and groom's cake right on schedule, and everything looked perfect. We received so many compliments on the cakes, and even more on how delicious they were. Thank you VG Donut & Bakery for making this truly a stress-free process. We loved working with you on making our day so memorable.

If we wanted to try something else, it would be $5. We grabbed 6 of our friends, had pizza and beer at Pizza Port, and the best cake any of us had ever tasted. We picked a design they already had in their book and made a few changes. VG's did a fantastic job. Our guests were so happy with the cake that some of them found a way to bring some home. Easily, the best deal of our wedding.

or perfectly when we left a swatch of the fabric from the bridesmaid dress. No fondant, just deliciousness! And the cake was just perfect. One note: they don't do traditional tastings here. You order two types of cake/filling that you want to try and they give you full (small) cakes to take home and taste with family and friends. We had a blast doing the taste test ahead of time with friends! There was some confusion about this process though, and they had to rush our cakes through. Be sure to put in your order when you make your appointment to avoid the confusion. Last little tidbit- they don't believe in eating frozen cake, so instead of saving your top tier they give you a free anniversary cake! Way more delicious and just as special, if you ask me.
