Don't get mistaken by the pharmacy sign. This hidden gem is inside of the pharmacy in one building. And it offers a lot of desserts for vegan gluten-free people and regular people too, because they are delicious and various, so everyone can choose their favorite. I really enjoyed the most fluffy coffee cake brownie, then the chocolate chip cookie sandwich and the lemon-hibiscus frosted donut. And I almost forgot the brownie I gave to my husband with big pieces of chocolate and rich texture. He loved it. The lady was very nice. It's definitely a great spot for local vegans in the area.

What a hidden gem. Tucked inside a pharmacy, it’s easy to miss but absolutely worth the hunt. Everything is completely vegan and gluten free, and you would never even guess. I can't begin to describe how delicious everything is here. The hibiscus donut, the churro donut, the brownie, the cream filled donut hut—every single item is incredible. This is a woman owned small business and truly something special. The prices are more than fair. Do yourself a favor and check it out. You’ll want to keep going back.

amazing hidden jem. the cupcakes are not only delicious, perfect texture, and perfect amount of sweetness, but the shop is super cute (even being inside a pharmacy!!!). the staff was incredibly friendly and sweet. overall the cupcakes 🧁 are impressive (i got the strawberry 🍓 churro)!!!

It's been hard finding a good vegan bakery that tastes savory, healthy, and soft all at the same time. Thank you for the pastries. I'm not gonna lie. I hate the prices, but it's totally worth every dollar. I feel like they make it fresh and with love. Yummmmm

Gluten free, vegan and absolutely delicious! 4/28/25 update: Cake Girl did an amazing job with my donut order for my event. It meant so much to have a delicious dessert that was safe for any one of my guest with allergies and for my vegan friends as well. Thank you!

All I can say is WOW WOW WOW!!!! I have tried a few other gluten free/dairy free spots and this place is the best!!! I will definitely be back. It is by far the best tasting gluten free donuts/cupcakes I have tried. My girls loved them too. && the service is perfect, very friendly. Makes you want to come back!

My 11 year old soul niece and I designed her cake and provided Amy a sketch. Amy and her team made this little girl’s birthday so special! She absolutely loved it! The flavor and how they were able to match her design! Thank you Cake Girl team!!!

We ordered our wedding cake from here. We can’t be upset by ordering around 10 days before our wedding, but we definitely regret not trying out the cake before depending on the reviews. Upside is that this store is gluten free, Vegan and other dietary restrictions. Downside? The quality of the design and expectation of the cake was disappointing. We gave her a reference photo of the design we wanted but didn’t want the florals, just the words that we believe didn’t seem too difficult, but we were sorely mistaken. We didn’t see our cake until we actually had to cut into it and upon seeing it, our mouths were open…and it wasn’t because of how pretty it was, it was out of disappointment. As you can see on our photo, she just printed out the wording, attached it to tooth picks, and thought that was the best version of the cake that we wanted…It was our wedding day. The fact that she looked at that cake, knowing the occasion (we paid $70) and thought this was the best recreation of a cake…we even told her that if she had any suggestions to include it, but she didn’t comment on it so we were confident that the inspo cake would be the one we would get. Hoping the taste would compensate for the way it looked, we were also disappointed. The red velvet was dry (I’ve had plenty of gluten free and vegan cakes before) and the frosting didn’t even taste like anything… Maybe we were an outlier, but we should have done our research and tasted prior to ordering, but I would not recommend this place for their cakes.

this place is tucked away in a corner in a very empty pharmacy but there's signs where to go in. walked in and there were so many options i didn't know what to get but i got the pizza roll, lemon blueberry donut, and chocolate donut. can never go wrong with a chocolate donut so no notes considering it's gluten free vegan and all that. i also thoroughly enjoyed the pizza roll, they even warmed it up for me :) it was cheesy and i could eat three in a row tbh the lemon one was very strong like borderline tasted extremely fragrant, like a lemon candle so wasn't a fan at first but tried it the next day and i ate it up lol omw back to try everything else!

Came here to pick up desserts for an event I was going to. It was such a hit! I came here via car on a Saturday afternoon and parked on the street around the corner next to a church. The bakery was inside a convenience store in the last aisle - follow the signs. Service was great. So thankful this place exists because my partner is allergic to milk protein so it was nice to find a vegan dessert place that actually makes appetizing desserts! We tried the churro cake, magpie cookie, and hibiscus donut. We loved all of them except the hibiscus donut because we weren't a fan of desserts that weren't sweet. All of my friends like them meaning there weren't too sweet. We definitely come here again.

First found this place tucked into a local convenience store on the corner in Boyle Heights, many years ago. I loved her donuts & pastries and that everything is vegan, gluten-free, wheat-free, egg-free, dairy-free, soy-free, peanut-free, nut-free (except coconut). They actually taste great. After leaving LA a few years back, I was sad to see that so many Vegan Businesses had shut down post COVID; that was a very difficult time for these places to survive. Luckily, and with perseverance, this wonderful shop survived. We decided to visit and share the goodness with our toddler. They have more of a selection now, but overall, is the same place. Parking on the street is all paid, but I always find a spot. When I was selecting our number of goodies I recognized the owner, "Cake Girl", and apologize for not recalling her name. We picked out 6 donuts (Churro, Strawberry Sprinkle, Matcha, and Ube Coconut), and a couple of everything donuts (made with the leftovers rolled into a big ball). Each and every one was delicious! If you haven't been here, don't let the Vegan/Gluten Free aspect scare you...they're all delicious and not dry. Come visit this place in the back of the bodega, and tell all your friends. #SupportLA ...especially during these times.

Since my girlfriend is currently avoiding both gluten and dairy, I was looking for a delicious chocolate cake for her birthday that wouldn't resemble a rock or require more than a week's advance notice to order. Cake Girl to the rescue! Ordering by and paying over the phone was easy, pick-up in their charming 50's style pharmacy was a breeze (street parking right out front), and I grabbed some candles while I was there. They even provided me with a business card verifying the allergens they avoid using, which allowed me to store the cake in the kitchen of the gluten-free restaurant we were having her dinner at. Oh, and the cake was a hit!

In the heart of East LA/Boyle Heights is this hidden gem. I bought the day old goodies box for a birthday celebration at work and it was the best! The donuts and cupcakes were delicious and all staff loved them - vegan and GF for the win. This spot is located inside a store - so be on the lookout. It's a cute, small space....but when you walk in the entire place has a delicious sweet smell thanks to this bakery. PS...the vegan horchata WAAAAATT - I didnt know what I was missing all my life. Honestly I'd go back just for that. The staff were friendly and so professional. I'll be back.

Her take on the hostess cupcake in vegan and gluten free form is awesome!! Their donuts are good when they are freshly made, my fave flavor is the churro but my boys love the chocolate ones. My daughter loves the hibiscus lemon flavor. I know her name is Cake girl but that's not what we go here for. Her cakes a good but we go for the donuts. This is an epic find in East LA!

Cake girl is located inside a community pharmacy. The whole pharmacy smells so good from all the pastries. I bought the double chocolate cupcake, ube cupcake , and vanilla sprinkle donut. The chocolate cupcake was moist and delicious! The vanilla donut was also moist and delicious. The only downside of the 3 that I bought was the ube frosting, it was bitter from the food coloring. Otherwise all delicious. Heads up it is a bit pricey. I shall be going back for the coffee cake.

I'm so torn between telling everybody to grab at least 3 other people and please go buy stuff from Cake Girl, and telling nobody to ruin this marvelous lil gem. Listen, cut all the bs, the cakes, cookies, cupcakes, cookie sandwiches, and more are just plain bomb. They also have the added benefits of being way frickin healthier than anywhere else, aka eat more lol So you gotta go inside the pharmacy on the corner across from the biggest gang in la, then go left and you will see this cute lil diner counter and a whole vibe. My homie took me here once and I've been back on my own twice so some of the things I've gotten are: 1. Pizza roll (5/5) - gooey cheez yes, crisp crust yes, soft inside yes 2. Chocolate cupcake (5/5) - like a hostess cupcake which were my absolute favorite before I started eating better haha amaze 3. Chocolate chip cookiewich (4/5) - cookies were amaze wit the perfect crumble softness and the filling was mad smooth. For me personally, it was too sweet, especially after I just hoovered the chocolate cupcake lol if I slowed down, a glass of oatmilk or something prolly woulda been perfect 4. Cinnamon crunch coffee cake (5/5) - ok so we have all had coffee cake, and the magic with this so the top layer. I assumed it would be softer but it's actually firm so there's crunch and the icing with the streusel remain divine and provide a contrast to the soft fluffy coffee cake part As far as I could tell, it's street parking to get here. And worth it, just be careful of them folks across the street

If you're looking for vegan/gluten free options for your sweet tooth, Cake Girl is definitely your spot. Located inside the pharmacy, they have a cute set up with their donuts and other pastry and food items on display. We opted for the chocolate peppermint cupcake and the strawberry churro cupcake. Delicious! Having food allergies and dietary needs doesn't mean I don't want to satiate my sweet tooth, and this place didn't disappoint. They also do coffee so if you'd like to ass a coffee of late with your pastry definitely stop in and give them a try!

Picked up 3 cupcakes today- strawberry churro, hostess (chocolate with cream filled) and carrot cake. I really wanted to love these cupcakes given the good reviews and the $$$ per cupcake, but they honestly fell short. The cake was dry and not very flavorful. The frosting wasn't good either. All three were pretty bland. The cashier was very nice but not sure if I would come back again.

I've ordered multiple cakes from Cake Girl, including the one for my 25th wedding anniversary. The cakes are yummy, but my favorite has been the coconut with cookies and cream frosting. The custom wedding cakes are beautiful but far outside my budget, so I ordered a simple one. It was so tall that I was able to cut one piece of the two-layer cake as two pieces (between the layers), so it went far. My carnivorous friends didn't realize they were eating vegan cake until I told them. Like all vegan bakeries, it's a bit pricey, so I always buy my sweets from the discounted day-old stuff, and it's still delicious!

Amazing vegan cupcakes. Unreal! You MUST try! Will go out of my way to pick some of these cups. Other places just don't compare!

Amy was able to bake a delicious chocolate cake with coconut frosting for my friend's birthday with short notice. She went above and beyond to make an amazing galaxy looking cake with a Baby Yoda Cake topper. Definitely one of the BEST vegan bakeries around . I also got some chocolate chip cookies, which are my favorite item from the bakery! And tried the seasonal pumpkin spice donuts that were soft tasty .

I can only comment on the taste/quality of the cupcakes because my friend gifted them to me for my bday (so I didn't see the inside or interact with staff but I'm sure they're lovely.) The cupcakes were SO GOOD. -The Hostess cupcake cupcake - so fun. They nailed the imitation of a hostess cupcake. Body was moist and not overly crumbly. -Strawberry churro- so fun!! There was a little churro on top. Strawberry jam made the cake. Lots of textured and flavors -Apple Cinnamon - FAV BY FAR. the frosting takes like non vegan cream cheese frosting, and there were soft bits of apple baked into the cupcake's body. Delicious. Not overly cinnamon-y, which I appreciated it. -Classic chocolate- a good solid classic. Again, nice frosting and moist cake. I'd probably go with more adventurous flavors but that's just cuz I'm not a huge all-chocolate kinda gal. I was really impressed with this place. Reminded me of Sprinkles gluten free cupcakes, like really good quality and flavor without even being able to tell it's vegan. They also held their shape well when I cut them (for the most part), which is so hard to do in gluten free baking. Wish it was closer to where I live in LA but probably a good thing it's not cuz I'd be here all the time. Come here for any gluten free, vegan friends!!

Wowow!! Best everyday vegan (dairy free) small bakery for snacks!! My new fav! $4.50 cupcakes, $1-$3 donuts, $1.50 cookies and more. Gluten, wheat, egg, nut, soy and dairy free!! This place makes me realize I don't ever have to put up with the norm of crappy vegan desserts anymore. Located inside, left side of what looks like the local corner convenience store. Difficult to find street parking on a Sunday afternoon. I'm sure there are ppl who quickly run in to grab to-go items while emergency parking at the red street curbs right in front. - 1 cookie $1.50: I love soft textured cookies!! - Hostess Cupcake $4.50: Was like marshmallow melts. The hard chocolate cap was fun. - Hibiscus Lemon Donut $3.00: Really can taste the hibiscus and lemon flavor vs just coloring and sugar. Soft almost like a Twinkie, or cake Sponage. - $1 Day Old Donut $1.00: Wow! I really need to find out what day or time they start selling these to load up!! I got the strawberry and really felt like they used a lot of real strawberries in this top coat. I feel I have reasonably low expectations when it comes to trying new vegan dessert places due to years of the chase. Looking through the showcase, I just assumed everything could be hard, dry and probably just sugar on top of sugar taste or just tasteless. And assume the day old items to just be extremely stale. To my surprise, each item was full of flavor or had perfectly soft texture!!! It felt like I was a normal kid again, able to eat normal everyday tasty desserts like everyone else. Anyone who comes across a big lifestyle change like developing a severe allergy, would really appreciate this place. I've been investing too many stars and money in supporting the wrong bakers....fyi, dairy ingesting customers have options and don't have to compromise or support someone's growing skills in these ways. But because there is a lack of decent vegan desserts, many of us don't even realize what we've been compromising for so long....due to the insufficient supply of decent and affordable everyday vegan desserts. Skip whole foods, skip trader Joe's, skip sprouts and anymore commercialized vegan dessert options. This place is it! I only went toward the dark side of commercialized desserts due to lack of easy, affordable and even decently tasty options. If I'm near Boyle Heights, I don't ever have to compromise again!! Financially and in taste.

We bought a mix of cupcakes for a dinner party. They were all fantastic and delish, but my favorite was the chocolate cupcake. My friends like the cinnamon cupcakes.

Small bakery inside Mexican dollar store?! However cute set up and cute cakes! Paid $70 for a 6 inch cake so not cheap.

Cake Girl provided us our wedding cake and sheet cake and it was absolutely delicious! Nothing was left behind and it felt amazing to be able to provide a vegan, nut-free option to our wedding guests. I also really enjoyed how she set up her wedding tasting box, we made it a fun activity with friends to find which sponge and which frosting flavor we felt paired together the best. Thank you to Cake Girl and I will be a regular customer!

HARD CHUNKY CAKE UNPLEASANT!!!! This review is in the vanilla cake and atmosphere update. I was so embarrassed during my mothers birthday dinner. I served all my guest this inedible cake. What was wrong? Well these pieces were really hard and chunky which caused not only me but my guest to spit out the cake. I thought maybe it was on one side of the cake but it was the whole cake, the batter was not mixed well. TASTE: This cake is not vanilla flavored so do not expect this cake to taste like vanilla it's more of a gingerbread taste. 5/10 0/10 for being able to eat it. Difficult not to speak on ambiance or customer service besides the fact that you have to be the one greeting them instead. They don't welcome you in it's very forced interaction. It also feels weird to go inside a pharmacy where people are sick picking up their medication and getting food centimeters from it.

HOLD A MINUTE. HOLD A GOD-DAMN-MINUTE. Alright I'm coming out of retirement of writing Yelp reviews to write this place a review because GOD-FUCKING-DAMN-THIS-PLACE-DESERVES-ONE. I'm gluten intolerant. Long story short if I eat anything with wheat, barley, or rye my immune system attacks itself and my rhumertoid arthiritis gets worse (lucky me). I got a few cupcakes, a cookie, and a few donuts. HONESTLY THIS PLACE SLAPS. These pastries are giving gluten energy without having any gluten in them. You could barley tell this place is gluten free. The cupcakes are moist, the flavors are unique and on point, and I want more. GO TO THIS PLACE. KEEP SUPPORTING THIS PLACE. I REFUSE TO LET THIS PLACE CLOSE SO THAT I CAN KEEP GETTING PASTRIES FROM HERE. FUCK THE USA FOR OVERLY PROCESSING WHEAT AND MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME TO EAT A GOD DAMN CUPCAKE. Cake Girl... you the one. If you are ever at risk of closing down you let me know and I will buy out your store.

Whenever our family is celebrating something, we call Cake Girl. My husband is allergic to dairy so it was not easy for me to find a good quality vegan cake / pastry shop around my neighborhood. Even if I did find some places, they are not affordable most of the time. I believe custom cake price starts around $50, and trust me, other places charge you a lot more for less quality. I've been ordering custom birthday cakes for my hubby from Cake Girl ever Since I found them. They mostly accommodated my design requests so far, and the quality is amazing. It's yummy as it looks :) Their other baked goods like doughnuts and stuff are also delicious. Highly recommended!

Everything here was delicious. I got there strawberry doughnut, strawberry Matcha cupcake, gansito cupcake, hostess cupcake, strawberry churro cupcake, coffee crumb cake, chocolate chip cookie, and their pizza like pastry! The strawberry sprinkle doughnut was in there day-old item case for just one dollar. Definitely worth the dollar but it had a bit more of the texture of a gluten-free pastry after a day I think. None of the other items had the same texture as much as the day old donut did! Still really yummy though. My favorite item was probably the pizza pastry, I'm not 100% sure exactly what it was called. My favorite from the sweets was definitely the coffee crumb cake! The parking is a little hard but you can park in the neighborhood area right behind for free! It's also a bit hard to find but I knew exactly where it was since I had looked at the Google maps pictures. Support this amazing asian woman owned establishment y'all!

Tasty Vegan pastries. Hard to believe everything is Vegan and Gluten free. I have had my fair share of V/GF items and the texture is often much more dry than a traditional pastry that was not the case here. Props to them for that! Would really recommend trying this place out if you have a sweet tooth. My favorite items were the "Gansito Cupcake" and the "Hibiscus Lemon" donut. Both great flavors and moist in texture. The cookies and cream cupcake was lacking in that chocolatey flavor so I would opt out of that one. *sadly* The Matcha Latte was tasty as well and I thought the straw was a cute touch never seen a heart shaped straw before (not sure if this is a seasonal thing or year round) I appreciate how they had a mix of Mexican flavors and more traditional options as well.

Omgggg what incredible flavors!! The lemon hibiscus donut was decadent. The strawberry jam churro cupcake was so sweet and delicious! And the coffee cake was just as great. The service was fast and they were nice enough to give me their recommendations and popular items. Now this location is super random and the two opposite vibes on either side of the store was very interesting. They share a space and their spot could be missed if you weren't looking for it! Get a bigger sign!!

At the last minute I ordered a dozen vegan cupcakes for my birthday and they were out of this world amazingly tasty! I highly recommend everyone try their strawberry churro cupcake and their green matcha tea cupcake with strawberry frosting was surprisingly good too. I lucked out that their "Cupcake of the Month" was carrot cake because that's my favorite and it had a delicious warm holiday spice flavor to it! The staff were very professional and kind. Highly recommended!

We are definitely going back.

disappointing experience :/ i was really excited to buy a cake for my birthday so i called before i visited the shop to ask if they had any cakes in stock. the guy on the phone said they had plenty so i asked if he could reserve a cake for me since i was making a 40 minutes to an hour drive to East LA. the guy on the phone said there was no need to do that so i thought alright! luckily found a parking spot out front and walked into the drug store? i did not realize this cake shop was located inside of a pharmacy, but upon walking in, i was not greeted nor welcomed. i walked up to the counter and the woman behind the counter let me know anything i could see was available and left to purchase for the day. all i saw were cupcakes. i asked about the "plenty" cakes that were available an hour before and she said they were all sold out so that's all. i was really confused because the guy on the phone straight up lied and now i was left without a birthday cake on my birthday. since i had already made my way out to LA, i figured what was another 20 minutes or so drive to Dear Bella Creamery. i bought a vegan ice cream cake instead and it made me happy knowing i could rely on a vegan establishment to make my birthday experience better than cake girl. overall, i do not recommend relying on this shop's varying selection. they should let people reserve cakes over the phone or online. i would have been more than happy to pay a reservation fee or something to know i would be picking up a cake for my birthday.

I ordered a chocolate birthday cake for my cousin, and it was absolutely delicious! Sometimes with Vegan desserts, you feel it's missing something, but Cake Girl got the texture, flavor, and presentation perfectly. We ate the whole thing and the birthday girl was very happy. Also, I found it to be very reasonably priced for a custom-decorated cake made to order. Thank you Cake Girl!

We ordered 1/4 sheet cake naked (meaning less frosting) to fit with our dinosaur themed party. Once again, Amy outdid herself on this cake. The cake was a hit at the party. It had great flavors all around. The lemon frosting with the vanilla cake was perfectly balanced with fresh strawberries. It was the perfect amount of frosting that complimented every part of the cake. There was a bit of cake left that went perfect with my coffee the next morning. Definitely will be ordering this cake combination again. Thank you again Amy!

So i would come here just for the cupcake lol because as soon as i opened up yelp trying to find vegan desserts i saw that churro one and i immediately said ok im going and thankfully it was good haha you know those moments when you see something, you get excited, and then you taste it and your expectations are just shot down? Well this wasn't one of them so im thankful haha. It wasnt too sweet but it wasnt too bland either. Right in the middle.

I am still in awe of how beautiful and delicious this cake turned out. This cake was my first pregnancy craving(I had gotten the same strawberry cake for my birthday) and I was so excited when I found out I was having a girl and could get the strawberry frosting lol. This was a 6" vanilla cake with strawberry frosting. Sooooo good omg

Purchase a vegan marble cake for my daughters baby shower and it was Amazing. Sent a picture of what I wanted, it was just what I asked for!! Very dense and very delicious!! Everyone one was asking we're I purchased it. Will use again!

was fantasizing about cupcakes. Love their day old deals at half off. I've tried their strawberry matcha (decent, but a little too dense for me), their lavender vanilla (hit the spot, still a bit dense but softer, and that fine fine frosting!!!!) ad their hostess cupcake look alike, also satisfying. Overall I like their stuff and it's vegan, gluten free which is fantastic.

We were recommended Cake Girl from our friend's wedding. We had Cake Girl make our wedding cake for ourselves and our guests, and both turned out excellent. We loved that their cakes are vegan and gluten-free, and they have lots of different flavors available. They were very easy to work with and their prices were reasonable. We'd absolutely recommend to anyone.
