Simple Delights

High-Quality Ice Cream Cake, Better Than Chains. This review is for the 6-inch chocolate ice cream cake, purchased for a birthday party. * Quality: Excellent. The cake was moist, and the ice cream was well-balanced. It's a clear step up in quality from large chains like Baskin-Robbins. * Value: Good. At $60, it serves 6-8 people, making the price point competitive with chain stores but for a superior product. * Logistics: The location is a little isolated. It is highly recommended to call in advance to check their inventory before you make the trip. * Service: The staff were friendly and efficient. A solid choice for anyone looking for a high-quality ice cream cake. The taste justifies the price and the minor inconvenience of the location. Just be sure to call first.

Great customer service and absolutely amazing ice cream cake! I was trying to order a 4in custom ice cream cake a little less than a week before my boyfriend's birthday but the online ordering system said that the cake wouldn't be ready until a day after. I called and Jessica was super helpful. She was able to accommodate my requested pick up time and confirmed my online order over the phone. On the day of, the cake was ready early which worked out for my schedule and I was able to pick up the cake with no trouble. And what a cake! Everything from the cake and ice cream to the frosting and toppings were absolutely delicious! We were so impressed and delighted that I'm sure we'll be ordering with Jessica again sometime in the future!

We loved our wedding cakes from Simple Delights! We had two wedding events that were very different, so we ordered two cakes of different flavors and styles. Jessica is super talented - she ran with our visions and totally exceeded our expectations. The cakes were both so beautiful and tasted amazing. It was awesome working with Simple Delights, would highly recommend!

We have indulged in this delightful little shops sweet dishes several times and it has never disappointed. Usually it’s cupcakes for my children and they love the fluffy and sprinkled cream and moist and tasty base. Besides cupcakes, they also have larger cakes (some custom made), yummy parfaits, gelatos, frozen yogurts and unique flavors of ice cream. There is a nice, clean and well lit sitting area to enjoy your sweets and lots of parking to conveniently park your car.

Such an adorable dessert place! Shared a banana split and the portion was gigantic. You’re allowed to choose your ice cream flavours for the banana split which was a nice surprise!

Ordered a custom cake for my baby’s first birthday, and they did a great job! It was quite true to the design inspiration photo I sent and they were kind enough to throw in some extra sugar cookies on top of it! The smash cake was also pretty and matched the overall design of the main cake. Very happy with how it turned out and would go back for other special occasions. They were also very responsive over email as we coordinated the details and design!

Simple Delights worked with me to make my wedding cake. It turned out beautifully. I sent over a combination of pictures and asked to get the icing from one cake, the strawberries from another, and flowers like X, and they really delivered. They were also quick to respond and easy to work with. I also appreciated that they offered delivery service options. On the day of the wedding, I didn't have to worry about the cake at all. They delivered to the venue and it was just setup and ready to go for me. I also really wanted to do cake testing, and we were able to buy some extra little cup cakes and try them out ahead in different varieties and it was so much fun! (FB and IG: @photobyvee)

So disappointed!! What looked good turned out to be massively disappointing. The Ube crinkle cookie was a sad, soft, unsweet experience, and the Ube mochi was absolutely inedible. Nothing like I’ve come to delight in at other places, such as Café 86. The coconut ice cream was good but crazy expensive ($6.35 for the kiddie scoop)! I had hoped to find another nice dessert place, but this is not it.

The people are sweet, and the place is inviting. The food is, of course, excellent! I especially love love love their Butter Mochi Bars and their Ube Mochi Bars. They're just the right sweetness and moist, with just the right 'moch' in it. ;) Their cakes are delicious too. Whenever I serve their tiramisu at home, friends always ask where I got it, and then have ordered for their events like dinner parties, birthday parties, and book club meetings. I hope to try out their ice-cream cakes one of these days.

Really great spot!! Their tiramisu and cakes are outstanding, and their asian inspired ube mochi bar is also to die for. Such a solid spot!!

This is a nice little shop with desserts, and the service is decent. We got the Ube Cheesecake, Matcha Panna Cotta, Ube Butter Mochi, and Matcha Green Tea Ice Cream. The Ube Cheesecake tasted weird as hell and didn't taste at all like Ube. I definitely wouldn't get this awful tasting Cheesecake again. The Matcha Panna Cotta was okay. I could taste a little Matcha, but not a lot. It was nothing special and I have tasted better Panna Cotta. The Ube Butter Mochi was okay. It thankfully tasted better than the Cheesecake and had the right texture. This also tasted fine, but didn't taste like Ube at all. The best thing I tried there was the Matcha Green Tea Ice Cream. It had good flavor and actually tasted like Matcha Green Tea. Overall, most of the desserts were meh. If I am going to pay for the flavoring of these desserts, then I want them to actually taste like the flavor they say. So, I wouldn't recommend this place or come here again.

Amazing shop! We love all their cakes, especially the cheesecakes and the tiramisu. They have fun Asian flavors like ube, matcha etc. Great quality and not too sweet. I haven't tried any of their made to order cakes yet but they look beautiful and delicious.

I came here today after to have a desert.I got the mini terimisu and let me tell you,it was delicious! I ate the dessert inside the dessert shop.I also got a diet coke . Service was good and simple delights is in a shopping center so there is plenty of parking

Jessica was great and easy to work with. We had several cakes at our tasting and decided on a two-tier cake for our wedding, the bottom tier being chocolate buttercream chocolate cake and chocolate ganache with the top-tier cream cheese icing vanilla cake and strawberry filling. We loved the cake and so did our guests. We thought we may not have any left over for our first anniversary! Simple Delights also delivered the cake to HMB which made our wedding day much easier! Highly recommend!

Some of the best cakes and desserts I have ever had! Light. Fluffy and just the right sweetness! You have to stop by and try these culinary delights!

The service was exceptional, and the attention to detail was remarkable. I had ordered a custom vegan cake in advance. Jessica followed up regarding the cake quote submission, and we continued to communicate and confirm the details via email. The cake was easily picked up, and it was a resounding success at the party. I highly recommend cakes by Simple Delights to all for events.

Beautiful cake for my 40th birthday! Just incase anyone wants something similar, this is exactly what I ordered: Size: 8-inch (15 to 20 servings) + Ube Cake + Vanilla Buttercream Frosting Filling: Oreo Buttercream Custom Decoration/ Additional Color: Pink/ purple marble, gold painted look

My go-to cake shop! Ordering cakes is super easy on their online form and they call to confirm your order. They have all the desserts you could ever need, from cookies, ice cream, soft serve, to coffee and mochi cakes. Very friendly staff and a gem in the local community!

I ordered a premade chocolate mousse cake for a birthday as well as some chocolate chip cookies. Both were a hit and not overly sweet. The staff was very friendly and answered questions with the out hesitation. It's a cute shop that I need to return to so I can try out the I retesting ice cream flavors

My son's 4th birthday party was less than a week away when I finally got myself together to order a cake. I worked with Jessica and her team on a construction-themed birthday cake, and we were so excited to see what they came up with. I had seen other Yelp reviews with construction cakes so had a really good starting point. We wanted to have the cake share colors with the Pupstruction show so I shared the Pupstruction logo. Email communication plus a phone call was all Jessica and team needed for the cake. Jessica's team even purchased construction vehicles from Amazon - and within the relatively short timeline. We were really happy with how the cake turned out and (most importantly) so was our son. Success! We'll be back.

They have a great atmosphere and friendly staff. I can imagine this place can create any cake you desire. You can smell the greatness of the cakes sweet smell as you enter the place .

Simple Delights helped us make our wedding cake and we couldn't be happier! Jessica was a pleasure to work with. She helped with all our questions and gave us good guidance on size of cake, which flavors for a tiered cake, etc. We went with a chocolate ganache w/ chocolate and marble cake (top tier), espresso buttercream w/ chocolate cake (bottom tier), and a red velvet w/ cream cheese frosting (sheet cake). Each flavor wasn't too sweet and the cake was super moist! It was a hit with our guests! Thank you Simple Delights for our beautiful and delicious cake!

What a delightful bakery! (Hehe) I ordered a simple cake for a small wedding party of 20 in Santa Clara & everyone loved it - including bride & groom (it was my gift). Then dropped by another time & had a cupcake for a snack. Can't go wrong with anything here as even custom orders are a perfect blend & balance of lite sweetness and texture. It was totally worth the drive from SF.

I ordered an ube cake with cream cheese frosting to thank a group of volunteers, and couldn't be happier with the result. The cascading flowers were piped beautifully. They looked like actual flowers, maybe even better. The cake came packaged securely in a box that was 2" larger on each side. I had no problems driving home with it going over a few speed bumps. Above all, the taste was amazing! Everyone commented on how light and airy the cake and frosting were...and a few of them normally didn't even like cake. I would highly recommend Simply Delight for customized cakes.

My whole family loved the cakes we got! Very friendly staff and I will 100% be back for more! My favorite was the pistachio red velvet but we also got the strawberry matcha. Both ice cream cakes and they were so good!! Great for short notice as they have ready made cakes available

Ordered a cake for my niece with her celebrity crush on it and was so amazing that I ordered another cake 3 weeks later for my mother as well! Jessica is so helpful and quick to respond! She's helped me with design ideas as well and the cake looked amazing and tasted so good!

Two words: ube cake. Uh... sold? My cousin wanted a cake for her baby shower and I remember from doing a quick cake search for her gender reveal that Simple Delights was an option and well, I was put in charge of the cake so I did what I had to do. I stopped by Simple Delights to order a cake a week before I needed it and showed a photo of what I was expecting - green ombre. I received an invoice days later, paid, and just waited for the day to come. They open officially at 11am, but since my event was at 11am, they let me pick up the cake around 9am instead which helped a ton. The cake was a hit. It matched what I was thinking of for the cake and it received the highest praise possible from older Asian people - "it's not too sweet." Simple Delights nailed it and I need another excuse to order an ube cake.

Amazing place. We keep going back for more of the mochi cake, mango moose, frozen yogurt. The owner is very nice. Highly recommended!

I needed a cake and I needed it for a birthday party 2 days later. This bakery was my saving grace. The online ordering form was very easy to fill out and the pre made ice cream cakes were available pretty much day of or next day. They even call and ask you if you would like a message written on the cake! Pickup was very smooth. And then the cake itself was super good!! Matcha ice cream was very creamy and the ube cake added a nice texture. Definitely recommend for any occasion.

Simple Delights was so great for my Daughter's birthday! I ordered an assortment of individual cakes...Ultra Chocolate, Berry Cheesecake and Chocolate Crinkle Cookies! They were a huge hit at her work where they were delivered right on time. So good. Thank You Simple Delights!

YIKES. Getting a birthday cake a few days before the date? During the holiday season? Somehow it worked out perfectly with Simple Delights! This shop is sandwiched in the corner of Laurelwood Shopping Center (off of hwy 92 and Hillsdale Blvd), right next to Piazza's Fine Foods. It's a quiet, supremely clean shop. Surprisingly whenever we pass by it's fairly empty but it's been around for awhile, so we decided to try them out. Also for this birthday cake, we wanted to opt for ordering from a non chain location. We're super glad we decided to order from Simple Delights. First of all, it is rare to see an ube/matcha combination ice cream cake so we had to give that a try! Pick up was a piece of cake and the service was great. The cake itself was quite tall and ratio-wise it was heavier on the matcha ice cream and smaller on the ube cake surrounding it. The cake was topped with cream and a small sprinkle of sprinkles. Overall solid choice. If you haven't yet, give this place a try!

I wanted a special cake for my mother's 90th birthday, and Jessica hit it out of the park! A vanilla chiffon with whip cream and strawberries - light, fresh and not too sweet, the cake was perfect and gone quickly! I will definitely order another cake from Simple Delights, and I suggest you do too!

Everything is absolutely amazing...from their service to their cakes, ice cream to espresso! Prices are as expected for what you're getting. It's wonderfully clean with nice seating inside. It's a must visit!

Chef Jessica and Chang were so helpful in planning our wedding cake. We went with a two-tier (4in and 6in) cake and opted to drop off artificial florals to decorate on top a few days prior, though they also offered to source them for a fee. I sent them my inspo and they were open to all my questions via email, including redoing the invoice to include delivery when I realized pickup and cake storage was not feasible for my family on wedding day. Delivery was $15 to Avenida Restaurant in Downtown San Mateo. They also added a fondant circle on top so we could add our own cake topper. Thank you so much, we'll be back on our anniversary!

Just had mango mousse cake. Wow! Perfect light dessert for summer. And what my friends & I also appreciated was it was not too sweet! Id be there so often if I lived nearby... but Im 100 miles away. So glad my friend brought us this special treat!

UBE EVERYTHING! I got the ube cheesecake & ube crinkle cookie. Cheesecake was my favorite! Milky and smooth. It's petite and just the perfect size. I gave an ube crinkle cookie and ube mochi bar to a friend -- she loved the mochi bar! We both thought the cookies were okay, could be stronger in ubeness, but overall love this bakery of nailing the classics and ube-twists down. Also next to a Tesla supercharger btw.

Ordered a wedding cake for a vow renewal celebration and Jessica and her team were fabulous. Helping bring our inspo to real life and offered so many options of flavors. My family and I did a tasting with 5 mini cakes which then were discounted into the order of the cake. We went with a three tier cake. Two tiers were ube with vanilla butter cream and one tier was chocolate with salted caramel. The cake was beautiful and moist and the butter cream is the best one I have ever had. THANK YOU simple delights and Jessica.

I was able to place a same day cake order (all done online) and pick up around 5 PM. There are a few options but I chose the strawberry shortcake. It's a good blend of sweet which is cut by the tart fresh strawberries. The cream was a little thick for me but still a very good flavor. If you have time to pre order they have many combinations and even ice cream cake options! I'll definitely be coming back to check out their cookies, ice cream and other treats!

I'm super happy with how this turned out and will definitely be back to order more for future events! I wanted something small and simple for a birthday celebration where there would only be two of us. It wasn't too sweet (which made it perfect) and they were very communicative to make sure it turned out the way I wanted.

Cake looked great but I was deeply disappointed with the buttercream frosting. It tasted more like Crisco cream frosting. The whip cream filling was runny and didn't hold up the layers, even with keeping the cake in the refrigerator all the time.

Really delicious cakes and so easy to communicate and work with. Placing an order was so easy and they were accommodating with pick up times. The cake was exactly what I asked for: a simple funfetti cake with blue frosting. I bought the cake toppers to place on cake for decorations. The flavor was delicious and it did not stain teeth blue! Glad to have this place locally!

Used to be a great ice cream/frozen yogurt shop that me and family would go to constantly. He sold it, now it's this, and it is never open. An ice cream shop should not be closing at 6. Every time we go out to dinner we go here at like 6:15, and it's closed. Theres better ice cream around here anyway.

Dee-licious! I love this place and glad it is not near me. lol They have a little something for everyone. We bought - Crinkle cookies, Yogurt parafaits Ube cheesecake Chocolate cake Espresso This list has me cracking up... I was definitely a kid in a candy story and I wanted to try everything, but somehow only bought that. I wanted one of everything. The customer service was great. Nice family biz.

Hi Everyone, After searching for the right wedding cake designer we decided to go with Simple Delights. The reason being, we liked the aesthetic of their cake designs and also loved the fact that they offer Ube Cake and Ube Cheesecake options. Filipino We met with the cake designer and her name is Jessica. Jessica not only walked us through different options, she also helped us finalize the vision for our cake. We ended up choosing a 3 tier Ube Cake with the top layer being Ube Cheesecake. Buttermilk frosting, with succulents designs around the cake. We also ordered 2 dozen mini cakes and mini ube Cheesecakes as well. Jessica also created the cake topper for us on the house which was extremely nice of her. Jessica dropped the cake off exactly the time she promised and wow, everyone Loved everything. In fact, Jessica's desserts were such a hit that we didn't even get any! LOL! Thank god she saved a top layer for us at the shop just in case lol, otherwise, we wouldn't have had any for us lol. Thank you Jessica so much, you really made our wedding so special. Love Robbi & Victor

Jessica made an amazing cake for our special day. It was affordable for a small wedding and it tasted good! She was very good with communicating and was able to accommodate our funko pops. Their bakery already smells good, would wanna try their other flavors.

Simple Delights did an amazing job. I was in need of a wedding cake in short notice and they saved the day. The cake was simple and elegant just as I imagined it would be. I'll be back for future events

This is my second time having a cake made from here and I'm so glad we found this place. I ordered a white cake with fresh mango filling and buttercream which was so delicious! It was so easy to communicate with them and made sure that I'd have it done on time. I requested a quote online and then she reached out to me with more information. Every one enjoyed the cake and it was so beautiful too! Thank you

What a great place! Clean, friendly, comfortable and delicious. An extremely gracious woman made us a customized generous banana split. I shared it with my boyfriend and we felt like teenagers. Hahaha we're seniors!

Simple Delights is a hidden gem that is located in the Laurelwood Shopping Center. They offer such a great variety of amazing desserts and baked goods. They have the cutest mini cakes and cheesecakes that are perfect for when you can't decide on just one type. I enjoyed everything that I've tried so far and my favorites are the mini cakes, mochi bars, and ube crinkle cookies. Their cakes are delicious and very moist with frostings that are not too sweet. The crinkle cookies are soft and cakey inside with a slight crispiness on the outside from the powdered sugar. I've tried all 4 panna cotta flavors (vanilla, matcha, chocolate, coffee) and they were all good and very creamy. If I had to pick, I like the matcha one best. They also serve Double Rainbow ice cream and I definitely plan on getting some my next visit. Simple Delights offers curbside pickup, takeout, and delivery. I've placed a couple of same day orders on their website for pickup, but large or custom orders require you to order 3-5 days in advance.

Great view very clean interior Great attentive service Banana split and americano were both good

My carrot birthday cake was done on time, iced beautifully and tasted delicious. Give them 4 or 5 days to produce.

Just had the best chocolate and white chocolate layered mousse cake. The white chocolate is a lighter mouse. The chocolate mouse is traditional dense mouser and the chocolate cake bottom, sets the stage. Yummilicious.

Got a few little goodies to-go and these were all so delicious! The presentations of each of their items are a sight to see. We decided to get their mini cakes and cheesecakes which were perfect sample sizes to try. I really enjoyed the fresh fruit on top.

Even though its a last minute order Jennifer made it happen! Also she was kind enough to make adjustments on the design to make it more accurate. Such a beautiful cake! Ube cake with fresh mangoes as filling. Yummy & pretty!

The BEST ice cream!!! I'm so lucky I live up the street because it's better than any ice cream I've tried.
