Roscoe Bakery, Northridge

Roscoe Bakery's strip-mall locale and small display case belie the whimsical and sophisticated creations whipped up by the bakery’s team of bakers and pastry chefs. They specialize in the creation of wedding and children’s cakes topped with imaginative motifs that range from fondant flowers and frosted unicorns to well-researched scientific hypotheses. For smaller occasions, they bake five flavors of cupcakes, swirled in rich buttercream.
