"This little cafe and bakery is the best! A true hidden gem and I’m so happy to have found and tried it. The drinks are delicious and the baked goods are phenomenal! I personally am a sweets person and the cookie butter latte is the best I have ever tried! So flavorful and made to perfection each time. Anyone who is nearby should try this place! Thank you Kristen for spreading your talent, dedication and joy of Vanilla Oasis!"

"Found this hidden gem tucked inside a business plaza/ industrial complex look closely for the coffee sign. I ordered the large cookie butter latte with breve, and it was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, with a smooth espresso flavor and subtle Biscoff notes. I paired it with a Biscoff cookie butter scone, which was soft, flavorful, and not dry at all. Customer service was friendly and welcoming, prices were very reasonable, and they offer a wide variety of pastries to choose from. Plenty of parking available. No indoor or outdoor seating, so it’s more of a grab-and-go. Must try, you won’t be disappointed."

"Great service and fresh pastries. Great place for a quick pick up as no sitting inside. A cute shop inside to purchase goodies. Lemonades were good- barbie is a fav as it's more sweet than sour. Great place overall, highly recommend!"

"This is a little pop-up in a French caramel factory. It's nestled in an auto industrial area of El cajon, walking distance from my oil changing guy💖. Standing room only, sadly nowhere to sit or else would have stuck around. Obviously had to get the caramel latte and SO GLAD I did 🤩 Great price for an extra large (24oz 3 shot) oat milk & a cake pop w/tip was $12!! Kristen was great!"

"This place is definitely a little hidden gem located inside of "Le Caramel" in El Cajon, CA. They are on the corner of Pioneer Way and Vernon Way for reference. I picked up and iced Americano with whole milk and a homemade pumpkin loaf topped with pumpkin seeds, both for under $5. The pumpkin loaf was exceptional in flavor and texture. It was not overly sweet and offered a great natural pumpkin flavor. It was super soft and moist. The americano was very well made. It was super smooth and delicious. I had with a touch of cinnamon with took it over the top for me. They offer a variety of terrific baked goods, including scones, sliced loaves, cookies, and rolls. The service is very friendly and welcoming. If you are a coffee and wholesome baked goods fan like me, definitely check this place out!"
