Cannot praise this bakery enough ! They made my wedding cake ( in Rochester NY) many years ago . We bought cake and pastries there for every occasion over the years. In 2004 my son got married in London- and he had to have the Gruttadauria cookies he grew up with for a wedding cookie cake - Linda took the order , and shipped them overseas. They arrived within the week. Not 1 cookie was broken in transit , they were packaged so well. We made the the tray up with a few hints Linda had given me . It was delicious & beautiful. I moved down South in 2011 . Missed this bakery so much we had items shipped a few times . Then this summer , another family wedding & again , had to have Gruttadauria cookies - Found they had moved to Temecula and ordered from Linda again , to ship cookies for the wedding in Atlanta ( wish we could have had a tier cake too ) . There is nothing that compares anywhere to Gruttadauria quality and taste. So thank you to Linda , Michael and your wonderful bakery for many years of enjoyment . ( We’ll be ordering again very soon ! Sincerely,...

I am planning a wedding in Temecula and had a disappointing experience at another area bakery, so when I found 1914 online, Linda immediately squeezed my fiance and I in for an appointment since we had a tight timeline. She was very responsive leading up to the appointment. When we got there, she was kind, friendly, and welcoming, and she had a beautiful presentation that included photos, binders of options, and easy to read sheets/pictures of all the pastries. Save your appetite if you schedule a tasting! All of the desserts were delicious and Linda really works with you to understand what you want and give it to you within your budget. We ended up getting a small 2-tier cake and a dessert bar. I can't say enough good things about our experience. It's a family-owned bakery and they really delivered a personalized experience. Highly recommend them for your next...
Read moreThis bakery came with our venue package & I am so so glad it did because WOW. First, the cakes are so so good. We did a tasting a couple months before our wedding and everything was so good. Second, the owners are amazing and so nice! I spoke to Linda a couple times regarding our cake and what we wanted. It was very simple. We got a white cake w/ their raspberry filling & buttercream and we got it Naked style with no design, decor or florals. We were having a very rustic country style wedding so everything for the most part was a little more simple. My husband and I bought a cake topper for the cake and it was PERFECT! (The bakery put our topper on for us at the venue). We told Linda what we wanted just a few weeks before the wedding and she was on it & so sweet. All of our guests loved the cake! I would definitely recommend this bakery to anyone needing a cake for any event or...
