Since the integration of Western culinary culture in the 19th century, the cake has gradually become a familiar dish that cannot be missed at birthday parties, weddings, longevity celebrations, or important holidays. Additionally, sweet cakes are also recommended by scientists to be consumed during times of stress or boredom, because the fat content can stimulate the brain to release more endorphins and serotonin hormones, effectively reducing stress.
Recognizing the importance and practical value of cakes, numerous industrial cake manufacturers have emerged to meet consumer demand. However, there are still some places in the market that use harmful chemicals to increase profits, which can have negative effects on the health of the community. This issue has influenced the thinking of Pham Quynh, a food science graduate with a passion for baking, who aims to contribute to promoting ‘clean cuisine’. She has shared her thoughts on current trends in the TVVN Press.
Why do consumers prefer handmade cakes?
The proliferation of dirty, untraceable cakes on social media has caused anxiety among consumers, especially picky eaters who cannot accept such products. In addition to the need to avoid products containing additives and preservatives, handmade cakes are also easy to choose the filling, customize the sweetness level, or decorate according to personal preferences to create a unique product. Therefore, the popular “homemade cake” trend is evidenced by appearing in more than 371.000.000 search results when typing in the keywords on Google.
This shows that the actual demand is still very high and “one of the common reasons that customers often buy cakes is to express their emotions, share, concerns, encourage the recipient” said Ms. Pham Quynh, owner of Quynh’s Cake Fanpage.”

Most customers always appreciate innovation, diversity in design, and creativity. Specifically, Quynh’s Cake uses high-quality fresh ingredients, including whipping cream, a type of food cream made from fresh milk, with a maximum fat content of 30% – 36% and absolutely no sugar, along with pure vegetable margarine to give the cake a delicious, natural sweetness.
At Quynh’s Cake, customers often order a variety of cakes, including sponge cake with cream, mousse, panna cotta, salted egg yolk sponge cake, cupcakes, tiramisu, New York cheesecake, and more. However, the most popular choices are the salted egg yolk sponge cake with cheese sauce, fresh milk cream cake, Phu Sy sponge cake, chocolate cream cake, cream puff cake, and also Healthy Mooncake for vegetarian customers.

Expiration date and commitment for exchange and return cases
Due to the absence of preservatives in our cakes, Quynh’s Cake recommends customers consume them on the day of purchase to ensure the nutritional value, freshness, and taste of the cake. Additionally, the price will depend on the size of the cake that the customer requests, which is ordered one day in advance, then it will deliver to the customer’s location.
When delivering cakes in Ho Chi Minh City, if the delivery staff accidentally drops or damages the cake, please immediately report to the customer service hotline at (+84) 905.465.214 or directly message Quynh’s Cake Fanpage to promptly receive assistance.
According to Ms. Nga, a customer in District 4 said that “Every time I order online, I feel very reassured because they offer exchanges and returns if any problems occur. However, what I am most satisfied with is still the cake and its price, along with the enthusiasm and customer-oriented attitude of the shop owner. Moreover, this place also has very delicious types of milk tea.”
