We are a family owned business, managed and operated by two sisters, Jennifer and Caroline. We opened this location in 2006, but have been in business since the 1980's.
The original Minia's Bake Shop was opened in 1989 by our parents, Ben and Minia Ayala. It was also located in Newark. Before opening in 1989, our mom started the business out of her home taking orders from family and friends. She continued building relationships with her customers and the community and had a successful business for many years. The land was eventually sold for housing in 1998. Many remember us as the two little girls behind the counter. While managing the storefront we also learned the art of cake baking and decorating.
After we both graduated business school majoring in Accounting and Marketing we decided to continue the business and to make it our own. With the years growing up at the bake shop and knowledge from our business background we have managed to sustain a successful cake shop.
We specialize only in custom, pre-ordered cakes with advance notice. We do not offer ready to go cakes at our storefront. All orders are carefully made and packaged at our facility. They will be carefully boxed and ready for pick up.
We are accepting orders only via email, and through all social media platforms. We can be reached through Facebook, Instagram, Yelp, Google messenger and text. We understand your concerns amid the pandemic, please rest assure we take all measures and are up to date with changing health protocols established by the Alameda Health Department. We continue to wear masks while preparing your order and when you come to pick up. All pick ups are by scheduled appointments.
