We ordered a gluten-free cake from Julie for our wedding and it was delicious! We chose lemon cake with vanilla frosting and had it topped with mint leaves and fresh berries. It was absolutely gorgeous and tasted amazing! Fresh ingredients, real lemon peel, very tasty. Everyone remarked how great it was and they were amazed that it was gluten free. We also ordered some gluten-free chocolate cupcakes with raspberry frosting, and they were equally delicious. Highly recommend!

If I could give this no star I would, I was called a “annoying brat” on her Facebook page. Very unprofessional. Don’t waste your time. Here I am editing this post, you won’t find it on her page because she deleted it. (It’s not letting me attach a image) but I have the screenshot if any one wants to see it feel free to contact me. I’d ask for that free cake she mentioned but the first cake I ordered didn’t get made right (NO WHERE NEAR IT) so I’ll pass. As you see from her response you can see what I am talking about. As a FIRST and LAST time customer this was my experience please read reviews before ordering that way you aren’t wasting your time. I got a beautiful cake from Honey Bee Cakes in El Paso HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Julie is a wonderful person who has a passion for her work!! Most of all BIG THANKS for making an egg-less (vegan) cake for us. She made one of the cutest cake for our daughters first birthday. It was a vanilla and strawberry cake with vanilla icing on the top. As yummy as it looked :) We have relished it till the last bite.

BEST VEGAN CAKES IN EL PASO! Hands down! The chef is incredible and I am forever grateful to her for making our baby shower so special with our cake! The only one who was able to make what we envisioned and it came out beautifully and sooo delicious! The hit of the baby shower! Highly recommend this place!

We ordered a wedding cake from Julie all the way from Houston. When we arrived at El Paso and met with her she was so friendly and willing to do anything to make her day special. On a short notice she was also able to deliver the cake, So that we would have time to do other things. When I arrived at the restaurant and saw the cake it was amazing. She did such a phenomenal job and it was very moist and the perfect amount of icing for the couple. Not to mention that the icing wasn’t an overkill of being too sweet. I couldn’t of asked for a better baker for this day. Several people asked us where we got the cake they thought it was absolutely beautiful and loved the way it tasted.

Communication with Julie was a breeze. Sent a picture of the cake I wanted and she did it flawlessly. The cake was just as delicious as everything is made fresh. Absolutely would and will use her services again 5 stars!

If a Baker who equal parts brilliant, inventive and easy to work with, then Orange Peel is for YOU. From her tiny treats to her pies and cakes EVERYTHING show the care in the details that one expects in a special bakery. One her best qualities is in her custom work, especially in sugar-free requests. Because her baking is so complex, her spices and other quality ingredients make her sugar free products seem miraculous.All things considered, Orange Peel is El Pasos finest bakery!

Just spoke with the owner. The shop is moving locations, but they are currently taking orders and need 3 to 4 days advanced notice. Google has not updated their status despite the owners having tried.

DISAPPOINTINGI decided to give this place a try due to the great reviews but what I got made me feel like I got ripped off. I have gotten better looking cakes at Walmart/Sams and for a fraction of the price. Regarding the taste is was cake, nothing different. When I placed the order I expected something nicer and expressed how I expected great tasting, specially knowing that it will get done by a pastry chef. I support local business, and she gave me good customer service but I cant say I would recommend this place.

The place is hard to fine. Their display is inside a grocery store who sells the pastries for the company. I also felt that the product is overpriced. I realize its gluten free but that shouldnt be the reason for raising the price so much.

The Baker was wonderful! She gave me free samples of her cookies so I could choose, and they were all gluten free! Shes moving her bakery to the international food store in the same shopping center.

Orange Peel made some awesome cookies for my moms retirement party! They were sugar cookies with a little bit of peanut butter flavor. Very unique and they tasted fantastic.

The cheese cake here is so off the charts delicious. Do they use a little extra lemon juice as a secret weapon in it? I dont know but I like it.

I went in for a sweet fix, new kinda what i wanted. I told the owner who is such a beautiful and sweet woman what i was thinking. She went to the back and had made me a customized pumpkin bread made from her own pumpkins she grows. And a sweet vanilla cream drizzled over the top that made my mouth water. Come to find out, shes a wonder at her craft. It was delicious. Ima go back for sure!!:) yuuum #happycustomer

If you want a vegan wedding cake, go here! Shes lovely and knows what shes doing. When I wanted input, she was glad to provide suggestions for smaller desserts too. We had a small vanilla bean cake, which was super moist and not overbearingly sweet, zucchini bread, and bizcochos. Our families didnt even know it was vegan until we told them. My abuelita even approved of her bizcochos. That has never happened! I got the zucchini bread for a small gathering at my house and my friends were in love with it. I plan to keep stopping by her shop to give myself a treat every once in a while.
