"Cousins Noe Sandy Portobanco and chef Rudy Cuadra opened Tres Leches Nicaragua Food in late September. The two Nicaraguans, who originally hail from Granada, are serving a robust menu chock-full of traditional dishes, including tostones with cheese, boho, nacatamal (Nicaraguan tamales), vigorous, and more. Dessert options include the namesake tres leches cake, along with rice pudding, atolillo, and Nicaraguan Christmas cake." - Cathy Chaplin

By far, the most delicious cakes. Tres leches is amazing. Not too sweet, not too runny. Cakes are always made to my specifications and with utmost care. I keep coming back and back and will continue to do so. Prices are very reasonable as well. Everyone always compliments me the taste and wants to know where I go. This place is too good to keep a secret.

I've bought 3 or 4 cakes already from this place, I never had any issues with them. I've always ordered in advance to have it ready by a specific time and they're always ready, the customer service is fast and they have a very big selection of pastries. I was reading some of the 1-star reviews and couldn't stop laughing at how ridiculous they sound. I did call one day to get a custom cake and was told it would take a week, so I replaced with something else that was quicker, but now I know for next time. Thanks!

I bought two cake for mothers day, one was moca and the other tiramisu. Both cakes were beautifully decorated and the icying cream they make is precfection but the sponge cakes were a bit to dry for my liking.

I’ve been coming here for years to get my son’s birthday cakes. this year was so disappointing. The cake was horrible I paid $384 for deformed minions and just an overall ugly cake. The worst part is the cashier and the staff thought it was funny. Not to mention they messed up the number they had a five when I specifically had said it was a 7 . They gave me a deformed tiny number 7. NEVER COMING BACK TO THIS PLACE AGAIN.

My sister in law bought this cake for my Husband's birthday and we were let down. First of all, they spelled his name wrong. How embarrassing. Also, she literally paid for a bunch of well made icing. There was barely any cake. It was supposed to be red velvet cake and it was Icing with a hint of red velvet. I really hope she didn't pay too much for this. We ended up tossing it out.

I ordered a red velvet cake for delivery through an app since I couldn't pick it up. Simply called and they sold me the candles and were able to write a message on the cake. Was able to zelle over the phone. Everything was perfect, easy and most of all delicious!!! Our favorite cake for anytime

Good cakes! I was able to order a last minute custom cake on the same day I needed it and it came out just as how I asked for it. The inside of the cake was a basic white cake with strawberry filling. The cake was soft and with flavor. The guy who helped me was also nice.

I called on Tuesday 2/11/25 to ask for a chocolate raspberry mousse cake, the guy that answered informed me that yes they still make them so I told him that I wanted to order one in a half sheet, so I picked it up on Friday evening for Saturday for my twins birthday party, when we cut the cake it turned out to be a vanilla cake not a chocolate cake like I ordered, I immediately called the bakery to inform them of that the cake was made wrong, the guy I spoke to turned out being the same guy that took my order so he informed me that it was his mistake but he couldn't do anything about it, my twins were so disappointed and their day was ruined because of this mistake.

Super talented bakery that shines in my neighborhood! My family and I have been loyal customers for a few years now, can't believe I didnt write this review sooner. Their cookies are amazing, delicious, so addicting! Prices are reasonable as well. Their cakes are the most popular here as you can tell by other reviews, they really are crafty and can bring out your idea in real life form- cake of course! We always get the "tres leche" with any fruit toppings of our choice. The consistency of their "tres leches" moist cake is just right, I wouldn't like my cake to be soggy or dripping, and so I appreciate the balance of this in my cakes. I've had it with peaches, strawberries, pineapples, and bananas. All were so good, not over powering with sugar, it is just the right amount of sweetness. Trust me, these cakes do not last long at home, that's how good they are! Parking lot is big and offers free parking so that's a plus. The staff is friendly and approachable in person as well as over the phone. If lucky, you can sometimes place a same day order, just give them a call ahead. I definitely recommend this bakery for any special occasions were you need a cake for celebration! You won't be disappointed.

The family bakery cafe is a true gem. They are walking distance from me and I appreciate that I can come grab a last minute cake here. I recently bought a cake for my sisters birthday. It was a small red velvet cake and it was so delicious. Super moist and super filling. They have also made other cakes for my family and loved them. Service here is always great and the people in the front are super helpful.

They made my custom baby shower cake last year, and I only have nice words for them. The cake was great. It looked very similar to the photo I sent them and tasted good. The bakery employees I've dealt with were all very nice and helpful. Highly recommended!

I was referred to this bakery by a friend who is close to the bakers here. I went in to receive a quote and place an order for my wedding last September, i showed them a reference of what i wanted which was something simple. The flowers on the cake were looking lifeless and there were so many cracks on the cake/: For the price i paid i wish they put more time and effort into it, my friend who originally recommended me here said the same.

Monster Jam cake was exactly what we imagined! I placed the order through the phone, making it convenient. The taste of the cake is delicious!

I ordered some custom-made sugar cookies from the family, bakery, and café. The ordering was fairly easy. I love that I could provide the bakers with photos that I found online and the final product came out looking amazing. I would definitely use their bakery again in the future.

So glad I was referred to this bakery and so glad I ordered all the cakes for my daughter's 2nd birthday from them! Not only were they adorable, created the aesthetic I wanted, and tasted amazing, but they were reasonably priced as well. I ordered a two-tier cake, 6 inch cake, and 4 mini cakes and they got it done with a week's notice. Thank you family bakery.

Yelp
Great Bakery! I was able to order two cakes for Father's Day last min and for a great price! You're able to order online and they have a good amount of selection to choose from. There's good amount of parking in the little plaza, I believe there's a designated parking for the bakery. There's a couple of displays inside and lots of pastries and cakes to buy if you show up as well. Looks very professional and have several fridges inside for pickup! I recommend coming.

I want to extend a huge thank you to Vanessa and the entire team at The Family Bakery & Cafe for once again delivering an outstanding creation for my family. They made a beautiful and delicious Baby Shark cake for my nephew's fourth birthday. The cake was chocolate flavored with bananas, and they paid special attention to ensure the baby had the same eye color as my nephew. I truly appreciated this attention to detail. The cake was perfect--everyone was in awe and couldn't wait to dig in. This bakery has become my go-to for family events due to its reliability in customer service, delivery, creativity, taste, and meticulous attention to detail. Thank you so much!

My favorite bakery for birthday cakes. I got a 3 leches, so huge for $45.00, so tasty, not soggy and not too sweet just perfect and affordable! The cashier so attentive, the bakers all wear hair nets, plenty of parking space, the place is super clean too, this place is just great!

This is the 5th cake they have made for me. They always look like my inspo pictures and are ALWAYS delicious ! This cake not only was identical to the picture but it was the most delicious cake we have ever had! Even the restaurant staff was asking where we got ! Thank you the family bakery & cafe for yet another gorgeous delicious cake. I can't wait for the next one

Very disappointed, I paid 45 dollars for this gelatina just for it not to not come out from the container and just fall apart. The bottom part completely separated from the top part and the flower broke and some of it even stayed on the lid.

Great customer service and the Tres Leches cake was outstanding. It's nice to buy from a family owned business in the nearby community. Juan and his family always treat me with a warm smile. A very professional business.

Let me start off with MY favorite item from there! They have the BEST rosca de reyes in the valley! My family and I start buying them as soon as we see that they have made them! And yes, we get a few because we love it that much! Their cakes are also delicious, moist and spongy! The variety of their cookies is great and all are delicious! We still remember the first time we stopped by, it was the first week they opened, and they had cookies & cupcakes! We purchased their red velvet cupcakes and they were delicious! To see them grow as a business makes us happy and also proud! Keep supporting this amazing bakery! And do not sleep on their rosca de reyes! You will never have it from any other bakery!

It was very easy to order what I wanted. Juan was so nice and attentive to my concerns. There were some bakeries near me but had closed so I went on Yelp and found The Family Bakery. I read their reviews and gave them a shot. Let me tell you I will definitely be going back. Thanks Juan and staff

I ordered a solid white cake with green and yellow borders on a red stand. They did exactly that! I put all of the decorations on the cake and cupcakes myself because fondant was over my budget, but I was very happy with the quality and taste of the cake and cupcakes. They are my favorite from this place! I asked for multicolored cupcakes for the theme of first fiesta and they executed it perfectly. I was happy with the way they came out! Their customer service was great as well! She gave me recommendations and helped me decide on the best option for my budget and the flavors I wanted for the cake and cupcakes! I spent less than $200 for both the delicious solid white cake (remember it was not decorated) and the 24 cupcakes. Definitely recommend ordering from them!

Our original cake person messed up and we rushed here and they were able to make an amazing and delicious cake last minute! They were amazing.

They did a great job with the planet cake they made for my son. We used the same design as one of their other customers. We added the astronauts and little decor on it from Amazon. My family liked how it was moist. I especially like that they used cream instead of fondant. Beware that the planets are made of foam, our kids almost ate it lol. The cake looked great and it tasted good too. We got mocha and coffee for the top layer for the adults. It was a subtle taste but because we are Asian, we don't really like it when cakes are too sweet. The bottom cake was marble cake with fudge. The fudge made it very sweet but that was for the kids and they enjoyed it. Goes great with coffee the next day. It stayed moist!

A+ The cake was BEAUTIFUL, STUNNING, moist, delicious, and too pretty to cut into, the attention to detail was perfect. I have used this bakery for more than 10+ years to order birthday cakes but this time they outdid themselves. I originally ordered two cakes, a sheet cake for my daughter's school and an 8" for 15 people. The day before the delivery date I called to make changes to increase the cake from 15 ppl to 35ppl. Without skipping a beat they made the changes to the design and also added another tier. Everyone raved about how moist the cake was and delicious- will return every year for more yummy goodness. The entire cake was butter cream-One tier was a marble cake with chocolate moose and the second tier was vanilla cake with whip cream, bananas, and strawberry mix. AMAZING! Thank you The Family Bakery for being awesome!!

Very happy with my experience and the cake I received. It was a last minute request so i wasn't expecting much i just wanted a simple cake but they let me know they can do a Spiderman theme for my son so I was really grateful for that. Everyone loved the cake, it not only looked great but it tasted great. It had great flavor and i love that it moist and fluffy. I will definitely order from them again. Thank you!!

My niece's custom cake came out beautiful and actually tasted really really good. I would definitely recommend and come by for any other events.

Rosie B.

Yelp
The cake was beautiful.... but the buttercream was not sweet and didn't taste like anything. The cake itself was not dry, but didn't taste like anything either. The fruit inside did not taste good. This was very expensive cake and should have been delicious. A lot of work went into making the cake beautiful, but it was supposed to taste good also. Extremely disappointing.

They made a beautiful cake for my daughters 2 years birthday! We loved it. It was exactly as I wanted it and the cake was delicious.

Cakes, cookies, cupcakes and chocolate covered strawberries are so delicious and delightful! This is my go to for a birthday cake or just craving a slice of cake. My fav is their tres leches.... Flan is a close 2nd, sometimes I can't decide, so I get both. Always recommending this tuck away gem of a bakery.
