Jo Mama’s Bakery

Yum.

Sam helped me in a pinch. I read her reviews on Unilocal and saw that she would accommodate last minute requests. She was great! Everything was wonderful.
We ordered cookies and cream cup cakes, chocolate chip cookies and snicker doodle cookies.
All delicious!
Next time I will plan better to give enough time to order one of her beautiful cakes.
Meanwhile, I’m craving one of her snicker doodle cookies while I write this…

Jo Mama’s Bakery made our cake for our wedding. Samantha was so helpful from the very beginning. We gave her some ideas about what type of flavors we liked in cakes and she gave us several options, but ALL WERE DELICIOUS!!!
We ended up getting a two tier cake; an 8 inch chocolate tier cake with cookies and cream filling and a 6 inch hybrid cake. We ordered sheet cake for our guests that was the same flavor as our wedding cake. I emailed her a bunch of pictures of how I would like for our cake to look like and she made it happen.
We had about 320 guests at our wedding and they were all very pleased with the cake. The chocolate cake was so moist and the cookies and cream filling was so yummy!!! It was exactly what we wanted in our cake. We couldn’t stop eating it that we asked for more as we were going around for table toast.
Samantha also helped us save money. We originally orders a lot more sheet cake, but with her expertise, she advised us to get less sheet cake so that we would not have so much left over.
Our wedding party is getting together again for dinner and we’re looking forward to her cake for our dinner party. She response email and messages at a timely matter and her cake is reasonably priced. If you’re looking for a dependable baker who makes delicious cake for a wedding or any big event, I suggest using Jo Mama’s Bakery.

I’m a little late on the review. Anyways, I had a great experience ordering from Samantha. My party was very last minute, therefore, I had to find someone very last minute. Good thing I’ve found her through Unilocal,and amazingly she was able to take my order with only less than a week’s notice. The price was very reasonable! And the cake tasted amazing! I had chocolate with cream cheese filling. Also, the cake décor turned out just like I pictured; it was a dinosaur theme layout. My son loved it. I will definitely order from Sam again!

Very well priced, and on short notice! Thank you!

What can I say about Jo Mama’s Bakery and Sam! Definitely worth the 5 stars.
I researched for days trying to find a baker that was local and would not kill my budget. I was throwing a baby shower with an attendance of 9 people, which means I need a small cake. Everyone said they had a minimum of $ 250 for fondant. I came upon Jo Mama’s thinking this was too good to be true. Sam was flexible and accommodating and stayed within my budget.
We had constant communication and she produced what I wanted to the tee. Cake was extremely delicious, I got the Chocolate cake with nutella filling. Couldn’t really taste the nutella flavor but it was perfect sweetness. Referred all my friends and will continue to promote Jo Mamas Bakery.

First time I ordered with Samantha and the experience was non stressful! Communicated the design through text and coversations over the phone.
ordered a 2 tiered cake and 50 cupcakes for my grandparent’s 50^th anniversary celebration. (Salted caramel and vanilla with berry frosting) I must say the berry frosting was so DAMN good.
When it comes to trying to plan which flavors to order For the cake and the cupcakes her professionality and her experiences are totally helpful. (Ex. If there are too many choices of flavors guests will become picky) Will def continue to order pastries from her for the special occasions.
Prices are awesome. Designs will exceed expectations. Highly recommend her.

I ordered a cake from Sam for my daughters American Girl Theme party, the cake was so yummy! The colors/​decorations were pretty and the taste was amazing!!! I’m not a cake eater (myself) but I do like to have a nice cake for all my occasions. I feel if you have a great looking cake, the party looks even better ! Only thing I would be more specific on the next time I order from her is the height. I’m not really good with bakery terms so I just ask for a «tall pretty cake»…either way the cake looked great and tasted even better!
I would definitely recommend her to my friends in the Bay Area!

Sam-​Jo made an awesome cake for my husband’s 50^th birthday party. She was very easy to work with and flexible. Cake was beautiful and delicious. Also ordered cupcakes and those were great, too. I highly recommend Sam-​Jo. I called several other places and did not get a response or response came two weeks after I called to inquire. Sam-​Jo was prompt and professional, and price was terrific!

I placed an order for cupcakes for my daughter’s 30^th birthday long distance. I was traveling to Alameda for the celebration which would actually be held the next day in Guerneville. I wanted a fresh and delicious dessert and that is exactly what I got. I was able to mail a check the week prior (almost unheard of these days) and we picked up the order on our way out of town. Outstanding, delicious little pieces of heaven… pumpkin spice and salted caramel cupcakes. I can easily recommend Sam as easy to work with as well as an excellent artisan in her craft of baking!

Her pumpkin spice cupcakes was perfect with the morning cup of coffee, that I need two cups to enjoy the savory taste

Sam did a wonderful job on my baby’s Frozen theme cake! The design was very detailed from Sven to Olaf. She is a very talented baker. My baby loved the Olaf and the cake. It was her first cake to eat and the best ever! The cake is so delicious! Not too sweet that you would want some more! Thank you Sam for making my baby’s first birthday special with such a beautiful cake! We will order from you again in the future and recommend you to friends and relatives! :)

Sam definitely came through for me. Having a family birthday party today, the cake was ready on time and it was very beautiful and I got many compliments. I will definitely be referring people. She is awesome! This was my first time but looking at her work and the cake for the party was great! So I will be needing another cake pretty soon! She’s also very kind and very open to suggestions.

I bought 3 cakes from Sam recently — one to celebrate my girlfriend’s graduation (USC colors, with roses; Lemon flavored), one for her brother’s birthday (Golden State Warriors logo; Vanilla Strawberry flavored), and one for her Dad’s birthday (Medicare logo; Chocolate flavored). The cakes were served to a party of about 50 people, and everyone, including me, loved it! It was the perfect combination of light/​fluffy and not-​too-​sweet.
One of the other great parts about Sam is she is a great designer — she can take your idea (regarding what kind of look/​theme you want) and make it POP on whatever pastries you want. Whenever I want to get something that looks and tastes special for someone in my life, I always turn to Sam!

Sam is a true gem! I was planning a bridal shower for one of my girlfriends. I needed a cake made and decorated sugar cookies to use as favors for the guests. Sam was prompt in getting back to me about what I had wanted, pricing, options, and flavors that would be best. Sam arrived on time when she delivered the cake and cookies. The cake and cookies tasted amazing. The guests at the bridal shower raved about the cake. Sam’s prices are very reasonable and she is very accomodating. I definitely plan on using Sam again!

Sam is the best! She did my daughter’s wedding for desert including the wedding cake made of cup cakes — everyone loved it! Very intuitive — she made a separate round cake for the cake cutting photo shoot. Wedding cup cake was an awesome idea — easy to distro and just right for kids.
Price was very reasonable
Delivery was prompt
Very creative — elegant presentation
Everyone ate it and loved it!

She is so amazing! I was referred to Sam by a friend. I was so impressed by what she can do and her ability to work with me on the drop of a dime. We had our wedding cakes made by her. Her cakes were delicious! It was buttery and not too sweet. She even helped make the best choice for us!

I love Sam’s cakes! I’ve been going to her for the past couple of years and every time I make some crazy cake request she comes through and never disappoints! Her pricing is great, the quality of work is amazing and of course her cakes taste bomb! Love, love, love her chocolate cakes!
