Muffin Top Bakery

Their quality has declined over the years. My family have ordered all of our graduation cakes from here but every year they get worse.
We paid over $ 100 on a «custom» graduation cake that was nothing like we asked for. It was supposed to be of the Operation patient (the game). We asked if it was possible and they insisted it was. When we asked to speak to the owner to verify this, the owner replied «I’m busy icing a cake». Trusting the other employees we agreed to get our cake from here since 8x out of 10 we are satisfied with our cakes from here.
Instead, we got a horrid yellow cake with an extremely scaled down version of the Operation patient. The frosting had so much coloring that it made the frosting inedible. This layer of frosting was over an inch thick all around the cake. It was topped off with a trim of blue — Overall the cake looked tacky.
The filling was supposed to be crème with fresh strawberries. Instead, we had some sort of an artificial bubble gum flavored cream with dehydrated strawberries. A cheap taste matched the cheap look.
I highly recommend to look elsewhere.

Got my daughters birthday cake from here and it was AMAZING! It was a Once Upon a Time themed cake that came out just gorgeous! Red velvet with chocolate mousse and also 2 dozen cupcakes were a hit with everyone. Thank you so much!

A great place full of yummy goodness, the folks here are nice and helpfull they have the best bread around from raisin bread to apple bread, cookies and more. Me and my wife stop here when we can, and you should too.

I ordered a vegan birthday cake and it turned out to be the best cake I have ever had! Extremely delicious! The cake was spongy and strawberry filling was delicious! The person who took my order was really nice and made sure my order was exactly how I wanted it! I have no complaints. This was my first time ordering a cake here and will come back! Really happy they have vegan cake options! My guests were really surprised at how delicious this vegan cake was! :)

Found this place after my daughter became vegan. Their cakes are so so good. Never have to worry about a birthday cake again. Now everyone gets their birthday cake from Muffin Top. P. S. the red velvet is to die for!!!

Terrible business. I went in here with much anticipation to try their baked goods but highly regret wasting my money in this establishment. The baked goods were stale and it was evident that they were old, and the two women that «helped» me were rude and not courteous at all! They didn’t even make eye contact me with me and every time I asked a question regarding a pastry they would answer with an attitude as if it was an inconvenience. I do NOT recommend this place to anyone.

I have been getting my gluten free/​vegan dinner rolls and hoagie rolls here for about a year now. I can not have dairy, eggs or gluten and this is the only place that I have been able to find eatible bread.
I can say that the quality is hit or miss though. I went in yesterday about 11 am and the bread displayed had mold all over it. I have been getting this bread long enough to know how long it takes for this bread to mold. 4 days. They were trying to sell 4 day old (at least) for the same price as their «fresh bread». I put quotes over fresh because even that was hard. I’m sure it was at least a day old.
If I am going to pay $ 6.50 for bread I expect it to be fresh. I worked at a bakery for a year and we donated all day old bread. Or at least discount it! Please do not sell old bread!
I can say I am very thankful they brought in their gf/​vegan muffins. Worth the $ 3? Maybe not. But they are pretty good for an occasional treat.
Note to all celiac customers: I am not celiac, but I have a pretty strong sensitivity. There are times I get reactions to the cross-​contamination, and there are other times I am fine.
They do label their gf items because everything is baked on the 2 common counters.
I think I will have to take a break from getting this bread, and maybe then they will decide to stop selling old bread to their customers.

Stopped by there super quick because I found it on Unilocal whilst searching «vegan» in the area.
This place is friendly. A decent amount of vegan options. I got the cream-​filled horn and it was huge! I could barely finish it in one sitting! ($ 4)

I was in need of a last minute themed birthday cake, I contacted Muffin Top Bakery and they were able to complete my cake for a very reasonable price. We briefly discussed the theme and the baker was kind enough to do her own research on my theme. The cake was ready and the exact time that I needed it to be and it was better than I anticipated. The cake not only looked great, it tasted great too.
I will be order all my specialty cakes for Muffin Top.

New to the world of veganism I was totally excited to come across this bakery. The two employees working on the day of my visit were really sweet, very nice, and I totally enjoyed my visit. I brought baklava, three cupcakes, and a cream horn. I nearly lost it when I became aware of the fact that more than half of their pastry selection is vegan. Everything tasted great!

The cutest. Everyone was so nice and the customer service was amazing, the type of service you get from family owned places who care truly about their customers. I will be back many times over!

I have celiac disease, it is vitally important I avoid the slightest trace of wheat. They sell the only allegedly gluten free bread that has ever made me violently ill. I’m talking many hours of violent spasms at both ends of my digestive system. I am 100% certain their so-​called gluten free bread is not gluten free.
If you have celiac disease, run away immediately.

Still in love with the muffin top.
Dec 8 2015 we had chocolate cake with strawberry filling it was yummy and thank you muffin top for making my daughters cake when I ordered it last minute. (Same day order)
Dec 19^th my best friend was in town and she wanted to buy my daughter a cake as well we ordered marble I wasn’t a huge fan of it…, it’s ok I’ll just stick to chocolate or white just not marble.

Awesome customer service and vegan selections. They do sell animal based food but don’t fault them for that if you are too rigid to realize that not every person or establishment is vegan. This bakery does not claim to be a vegan establishment. I don’t know any other bakery in the area that sells this many vegan items. I’m really appreciative that I don’t have to drive to LA or Orange County to find vegan desserts. To you Muffin Top Bakery I say thank you and support your efforts.

Yummy. Great selection. Good gluten-​free items for those who dislike flavor. I’d come again but not at night. Very sketchy part of town.

Great vegan options (because most all the baked goods are vegan) and friendly owners. We come here at least once or twice a month for breakfast.
Not many vegan options for lunch though. The place also feels a bit run down, not somewhere to spend any time ogling over pretty pastries.

Best (and first!) bakery in Riverside that offers lots of vegan and gluten free baked goods! The woman working was so nice and helped me pick out a super yummy treat! I first found their vegan cinnamon rolls at the Clarks Health Store downtown and I loved it so much I had to go straight to the shop! Their vegan cream horns are so delish& lift and fluffy! the vegan lemon cupcake is perfect!
definitely coming back whenever I can

This is thee best Bakery! Their baked goods are soo delicious and the fact that they offer sugar free & vegan options is amazing. We ordered a Birthday Cake and it was hands down the BEST cake we’ve had! Every one at the birthday party loved it & wanted to know where it was from! The cake looked BEAUTIFUL! We ordered white cake with Bavarian cremé and fresh fruit. I will never go anywhere else but Muffin Top! Thank you for making our celebration perfect!

It is so hard to find decent low carb baked goods. I had all but given up hope until I stumbled across this lovely little bakery. I go to the Thai food place next door a lot, and one day noticed that Muffin Top advertised sugar free desserts, so I decided to check it out. Wow! The sugarless muffins, pound cakes and cookies are spectacular! You don’t even know the sugar is missing. The service makes it even better.
I have tried some of the regular baked goods too and they are just as divine.
For diabetics or others on a low carb diet, I urge you to try this place. My personal favorites are the low carb bread and the sugarless cream cheese muffins or pound cake.
They also have gluten free items as well. I am not gluten free, but I got some bread for my godmother who is and she loved it!

I love how many vegan options they have! Was so hard to make up my mind. The lady that helped me was awesome and super friendly. She recommended the cream horn and it was good, but not my favorite. The cinnamon roll on the other hand was sooooo good! I got a loaf of Apple bread with no added sugar too (as though that would make up for my fat kid moment) and it is good. I can’t wait to put some peanut butter on it. Ok, I have to go run now… Yum!
