Ruby King Bakery Café is an Oakland Chinatown bakery serving traditional Cantonese pastries and cakes, open since 2002. Known for Hong Kong-style egg tarts, flaky pastries such as curry beef puffs and baked chicken pie, Lotus Seed with Thousand Years Old Duck Egg (皮疍酥), and custom birthday cakes with a soft sponge base, all made from original recipes rooted in Guangzhou and Hong Kong flavors. The founder began baking in Guangzhou, first worked in Oakland's food scene in 1972, joined a local bakery in 1987, and opened Ruby King in 2002; the bakery is now transitioning to Ah-Hua, a longtime apprentice trained under the founder. Based in Oakland Chinatown. Reviewers consistently highlight the affordable prices, flaky pastries, not-too-sweet birthday cakes ordered by phone in advance, and the bakery's status as a longtime Oakland Chinatown institution.

This vendor hasn’t completed verification

Verified vendors have uploaded credentials such as a business license or proof of insurance, and our team reviewed each document by hand. Verification is a trust signal, not a requirement: you can still reach out, and payments run through Stripe either way.

Ruby King Bakery Café hasn't claimed their United Vows profile yet, but you can still reach them.

We don't have an email address on file for Ruby King Bakery Café, so we can't forward an inquiry to them. The way to reach them today is to call (510) 835-2366. You can still send one here — we'll keep it on your inquiries list, and it will be waiting for them the moment they claim this profile.

Two things worth knowing before you transact:

If your booking happens on United Vows: A $100 United Vows welcome or favor credit, if you hold one — this credit comes off one booking here, in full, funded from our commission on it, once that booking is a booking of $2,900 or more, paid to them in a single payment of at least $1,500 — you get messaging, quotes and contracts in one place, your payment runs securely through Stripe against a signed contract, and if the vendor no-shows, cancels close to your date or delivers nothing you can file a claim from the booking, which they have seven days to answer.
If the booking happens off-platform: none of the above. Your credits don't redeem. We can't help if anything goes sideways.

The simplest move: when you reach out, ask Ruby King Bakery Café to claim their profile. It's free and takes a few minutes. It keeps your booking on the platform where everything we built for you actually works.
