Two Little Birds Bakery

Cupcake mastery ~ great service & very professional ~ affordable prices. Two little birds is a treat to work with for weddings!

The apple scone is lovely. Housed in the same building as di Raimondo’s cheeseshop. There are cakes, cupcakes and cookies as well.

Very cute. I wouldn’t call this a cupcake place, though. We stopped in on our way through town on a Sunday afternoon. The cupcakes were not appealing at all. My daughter and I both got scones instead and my husband got a brownie. It was fine, but not special. The cakes in the wedding cake photo album looked really cute, though.

4 Stars for the small wedding cake my husband and I ordered from here for our June 2011 wedding! It was chocolate cake with a raspberry cream cheese filling and buttercream icing with piped chocolate swirls… and was/​is delicious! It tasted absolutely amazing after cutting into on our wedding night, and almost a year later it still tastes amazing after thawing a bit from the freezer for a late night snack (we had a bit left over). When we went in for a scheduled tasting, Lauren prepared an entire spread of available cakes, fillings, and frostings so we could mix and match, and had a virtual photo album of their prior work so we could show her exactly what we wanted done.
Missing one star – On the day of our wedding, we sent a good friend to go pick up the cake (again, it was small), and when he walked in the shop Lauren was in the back and a much more incompetent girl was working the front… when our friend handed her our receipt she looked around and was convinced our cake hadn’t been made and wasn’t there, apologizing to our friend but offering no solution. When Lauren finally walked up she gave it a try and pulled the cake from the shelf sitting directly in front of the other girl’s face. My advice? If you’re walking in for any order other than what’s in the cases to-​go, immediately ask for Lauren and only deal with her!

I ordered cupcakes and my friend ordered the cake for my son birthday. I paid when I ordered the cupcakes, then when my husband went there to pick up the cupcakes, they asked my husband to pay again, the bad was my husband didn’t took the receipt with him. But this cake shop asked my husband to pay for the cake that my friend ordered. So be careful, they don’t have information system for ordering and payment, so better you pay when you pick up the cake.
Then my friend got mad, because the cake she ordered didn’t meet her order. She ordered for two layers, and they made it one layer. She asked fondit they made it just with butter cream, which was like a the little kid decorated the cake.

Not a fan, and here’s why:
Seems like more of a place for the owner and her friends to «chill» out at. Not a super professional environment. I was treated cheerfully enough, but the new location is… well, weird. And I am not impressed with the variety of baked goods, there are more than a few places to go in Paso Robles for the EXACT same stuff at a way better price.
Cookies are OK, especially snickerdoodle, when they make them. Love the frosting on the cupcakes, but not the cake itself.
Just didn’t stick with me as a place I’d go back to more than once or twice.

I received cupcakes from 2 Little Birds for my birthday from a co-​worker and had a hard time deciding which of the two to eat first! They not only looked so good, they were good! YUM! A must try for those wanting a sweet treat!

Great place. You an tell that the owner is passionate about her craft. Lots of love in a very small package. Didn’t look around but I’m guessing this is the best cupcake shop in town.

We used this bakery for our wedding cupcakes and they were AMAZING! We chose 4 different flavors (lemon poppy seed, pumpkin, chocolate w/​salted caramel, and carrot) and they were a total hit at the wedding.
Lauren was super easy to work with (she even helped us out with our awesome polka dot theme and made the top portion of the cake gluten free chocolate just for me)! I would definitely highly recommend Two Little Birds Bakery for a small snack or a huge event. Thanks Lauren :)

I am a Sprinkles cupcake girl but the cupcakes from here are equally delish! I have had their red velvet and the salted caramel which are my fave!
I even was able to order 20 of them for my husbands birthday and they came out great!
I love the small town, mom and pop feel of their shop. If you are ever downtown you’ve got to try them. But beware they are closed on Mondays

I hate to be the one to give this place a bad review but here goes.
Visited this place while my fiancé and I were tasting cupcakes from different bakeries in order to decide which we wanted for our wedding. I originally found Two Little Birds Bakery on WeddingWire and, because of the good reviews, decided to try it out.
The bakery is located inside a cheese shop. While the cheese shop had a line out the door, the bakery did not. They had about 20 cupcakes on display and none of them looked appetizing. I chose a chocolate one since it was the only flavor that didn’t look like it was made by a 5 year old.
The frosting was dark and thick, edible but I could definitely make something better in my kitchen.
The cupcake was dry, dry, dry and tasteless.
Also, the only girl working there was in the back when I came in and it took me asking for help for her to come out and serve me.
Maybe the day I was there was a total fluke — maybe they’re cupcakes are normally delicious and someone messed those 20 up. I guess I’ll never know, because I would never waste $ 3 on a cupcake there every again.

I would like to update this review because I feel people are human and can make an honest error when quoting a price over the phone. I thought about it and the cake we ended up ordering we really enjoyed just like the other UnilocalERS had reviewed here. Plus, I always appreciate it when a business makes a huge effort in taking care of making sure an accidental pricing error doesn’t happen again.
I LOVED THE STRAWBERRY CHAMPAGNE CAKE.

What a nice, quaint bakery/​café. Very relaxing, friendly staff and food to back it up. We had a huge muffin, a slice of quiche, vanilla latte and mocha. It was all really good an would definitely come back to try some more pastries.

Let me start with the sticky buns. They are crack!!! If I lived here I think I would need to go to sticky bun rehab. When ever I come in to buy one I buy three. I have no idea who I’m buying the other two for but they always end up being eaten by somebody.
The cakes are perfection. I’ve ordered several cakes for birthdays and various other celebrations. It’s the type of cake where you want to make sure you order more than enough so that you can leftovers for breakfast or a midnight snack.
I’ve tried some of the cupcakes and, unfortunately, I have to agree with some of the other reviewers, they are on the dry side. But that doesn’t matter to me because I’m more interested in the frosting anyway. The frostings are crazy good!
So of you’re ever in Paso find a reason to order a cake or at least get a sticky bun at Two Little Birds Bakery.

I really wish I could give Lauren and her awesome bakery 6 stars. I became a loyal (and regular) patron about a year ago… one red velvet cupcake was all it took for me to get hooked!
My husband Lewis and I got married in January, and when we started wedding planning months prior we knew immediately that we wanted Two Little Birds to do our cake for us. Like every time we visit her bakery we were NOT disappointed. The top tier in our 3-​tiered cake was red velvet, the middle tier was lemon with lemon curd, and the bottom tier was chocolate with chocolate ganache. We also got a supplementary cheet cake, which was a white cake with raspberry cream cheese icing. All of it was AMAZING! Our guests were constantly coming up to us and complimenting us on the yummy cake.
I couldn’t recommend Two Little Birds Bakery highly enough.

I put in a last minute order for a birthday cake the day before and Lauren was totally accommodating. I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted, so I went with her suggestions, and it turned out perfectly. The strawberry champagne cake was AMAZING! Great flavor and not too sweet. Everything in the display cases looked delicious too — can’t wait to go back and try all the other items!

Excellent Cake Tasting!
Lauren came out with a fresh array of cupcakes for us to sample. The quality and the taste was superb. She was super friendly and flexible. I can not wait to see how our wedding cake turns out to be.
We even got to take how our leftover cupcakes!

Their cakes look beautiful and the shop is adorable but their cupcakes, ew. If I’m going to pay ¾ dollars for a cupcake it better not taste as if I could have baked them myself. It was really dry and it didn’t taste gourmet.

This place hits it out of the park in all aspects. Their coffee is great (and reasonably priced), and the muffins (blueberry strudel in particular) are HUGE.
I have to admit that I’ve had several of their cupcakes also, all of which have been moist and delicious. And I just found out they make espresso here too — I will have to try it the next time I’m in (as well as one of those tempting red velvet cupcakes)!
The owner is really nice, and is always working her heart out, baking away! Really love this place, don’t forget that they’ve moved from the old location and are now located on 13^th St. right next to the cheese shop!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh…
…the buttery aroma beckons in the visitor from the street.
There was a nice selection of cupcakes, scones and other delicacies on the morning the aroma tugged us in, including one lone sticky bun that looked pretty alluring as it whispered our name. But we stuck with the wedding cookies. YUM. Buttery, round little, cookies with sliced amond enhanced dough and rolled in powdered sugar.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh…
…we’ll stop in again on our next visit to Paso Robles.
