The Daily Bakedown
The Daily Bakedown
"I started baking because therapy is expensive and cake tastes better."
Based in Orange County, CA, we specialize in custom cakes and cookies that look as good as they taste. Whether you're celebrating a milestone or just surviving a Tuesday.
Founded in 2023 by Claire who grew up in Taiwan and Hong Kong, the shop blends flavors from those cultures with American heritage for treats that feel both nostalgic and new.

The cake looked and tasted amazing. The art on the cake was exquisite. It was moist yet not heavy and exactly the perfect amount of sweetness. Honestly, I could have this cake for life!

Claire has made two gluten-free and dairy-free cakes for me, and both were absolutely amazing, delicious, beautiful, and perfectly executed. She is incredibly professional and always understands my vision.
