The Pastry Swan Bakery

Thank you for such a lovely and gorgeous birthday cake, you guys are wonderful.

One year later, on their first anniversary, our daughter & son in law defrosted the top layer of their cake which was tightly sealed in the freezer for the year.
They expected to take one bite of dry tasteless cake but to their surprise the cake was STILL delicious so they each had a slice, SIL had a 2^nd slice!
We are so fortunate to have had this wonderful bakery make our daughter’s wedding cake.

I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! I saw previous Unilocal reviews and decided this was the place to buy a cake! I called them up and they were so nice. I told them I wanted a small batman cake that would feed two people. I looked on their website previous to the phone call so I knew they had fruit fillings which my boyfriend like. They also have a variety of different cake flavors and frostings. I ordered strawberry and blueberry filling for a vanilla cake. They said they had edible batman pictures so I said sure lol anyways the cake turned out so well! Everything!!! It was so moist and you can for sure tell they put a lot of love into it unlike the grocery stores or generics cakes. This was one of the best cakes I ever had!

Worst cake ever, got the Black Forest cake which was terrible, stale, and had wax paper in it. Very disappointing. Expensive, $ 34 for a cake that bad, would of been worth it if it tasted better.

Wow! I flew in from Chicago to Palm Springs for my brother’s surprise birthday party. I was tasked with finding a cake, and through Unilocal,found the Pastry Swan. I ordered a coconut cake with dulce de leche and raspberry filling and a coconut Italian buttercream frosting with coconut flakes. O.M.G — it was AMAZING!!! Ordering from and scheduling a delivery from Chicago was a breeze, the delivery person was great, the cake looked beautiful, and the taste was incredible. I don’t regret getting it big enough so that we could ensure seconds for everyone.

Pastry Swan employees and owner Deborah are always so helpful. I have ordered many special occasion cakes and have always been very happy. The decorations are always fantastic and my guests rave about the taste, even the taste of the sugar free cakes. Also try Fix, their adorable restaurant on El paseo. Soo good!

I live out of town and we where planning a 50^th Wedding Anniversary. I had no idea at all who to use but went on line and they made it so easy and the cake was amazing! Even the people who did not like cake loved it! Thank-​You so much.

I found Pastry Swan on Unilocal and ordered my daughter’s cake last minute through Brittney who was fabulous by the way. It was a Drake theme cake and everything was done by email and phone. I sent two photos, one of the picture I wanted on the cake and one of the font style and let me just say the cake far exceeded my expectations. Everyone raved about the cake and about how delicious it was. Thank you Pastry Swan. I can’t wait for our next event.

They did a cake for my sister-​in-​laws baby shower and it turned out more than amazing! It was the most beautiful cake I have ever seen at a baby shower! Everyone loved it and were blown away by it! Pastry Swan always makes amazing cakes and I highly recommend them.

Thank you! Our wedding cake was perfection! The lemon poppy seed was a huge hit! I will recommend your beautiful and tasty cakes to all!

I called and ask them to recreate son’s 5^th birthday cake for his 18^th birthday 2 days prior and they said no problem. I love their cakes they’re not only beautiful but delicious. Happy 30^th Anniversary to The Pastry Swan Bakery!!! Adriana Gonzalez

This place is incredible. They always are willing to take on unusual requests for a cake. And the end product is always quality and very tasty. Would recommend.

The Pastry Swan is the very best in my book! From tasting the wedding cake of our dreams to the AMAZING customer service, to all the compliments on the simplicity of our cake’s looks and the delicious taste! Pasrty Swan takes the cake, no pun intended! My husband and i couldnt be more pleased. Thank you, to all who worked so very hard on our wedding cake, thank you Pastry Swan

My husband and I ordered our wedding cake from the Pastry Swan and it was beautiful! All 4 flavors were raved about (my 2 faves being «opera» and «piña colada»). All the staff was very helpful and easy to work with. I even called 2 days before the wedding to add a dozen gluten free cupcakes and it was easily accommodated and added to our order (and per my gf friends and fam were delicious)! We didn’t save our top tier, but I plan to be back on our anniversary to order another top tier for next year! Will also be recommending to anyone who may want to hear it! Thanks pastry swan!

I had called at 11am on a Thursday about making a specialty cake for a same day party. My request was quite lewd and they accommodated. My cake was ready within a few hours and blew my socks off. They knocked my order out of the park. I couldn’t believe how awesome it was. Loved it!

Love love love their cake! Called a couple days before a baby shower to order a 2 tier cake. Sent a photo through email, and the cake came out fantastic! Exactly the way the photo was. Got red velvet for the first layer, and German chocolate for the second. Wow do they work their magic! Will be returning for many more other cakes!

What a cake! WOW! They created this masterpiece for «granny’s 50^th birthday» and it was EPIC! Well executed per my exact design and oh so delicious… and they even delivered it! Sorry my review is so late (celebration was on June 29, 2013). HIGHLY recommend Pastry Swan — hands down, the best place here in the desert! BRAVO!

I ordered a cake well in advance for a birthday. Pretty simple yellow cake with cream cheese frosting, and I verified the ticket with my own eyes. The cake appeared correct when I picked it up but it turned out to be chocolate when we cut into it – the recipient doesn’t like chocolate cake. No cake on your birthday is pretty sad.
I called the bakery the next day. I was told that I have to talk to the owner who was out of town until the next week but they would call me back. I’ll spare you the litany of my phone calls and visits to the shop in an attempt to speak with the owner about the issue I experienced but no call was ever returned.
Poor delivery of goods and excessively irresponsible customer service. Eek! Methinks not.

I needed a cake for my baby shower in Rancho Mirage — and Pastry Swan was the only way to go!
I brought in my shower invitation and met with a baker, described the event, theme and selected the cake and filling flavors. We paid our deposit and didn’t worry about it!
The cake was delicious, I was much happier with the flavor the of the cake than the ‘décor’ of the cake. All the elements were there — everything we asked for — just when my sister and I both saw the cake we both said — «hmmm — I was expecting a bit more».
Some reactions can’t be explained! Our guests loved it and as I said — it was a delicious cake and I would order from the bakery again — I would just be VERY specific on my décor request. :)

I love this place!!!
I had tried a slice of cake from their café location a couple years ago and thought it was the best almond cake Ive ever had. So when I was having my birthday out in Palm Springs I thought I would commission them to make my big 2 tier 30^th birthday cake.
I choose 2 different flavors of my 2 tier cake and sent them a picture of how I wanted the design to be and holy cow, I loved my cake! It was so beautiful but even more important, it tasted phenomenal! I still love their almond flavor cake the most and its still the best Ive ever had.
When I needed a last minute 2 tier birthday cake for my mom they were able to do it with less than a week notice!
Their cakes are some of the best Ive eaten and I like that its not loaded with frosting. Their cake designs are very pretty, but the taste and flavor of the cake is still the star!
