How Family and Frosting Play A Critical Role
It’s still early in the day, but the scent of sweet frosting already floats through the small bakery on Brookhurst Street. Behind the counter, rows of intricately crafted cakes wait patiently in chilled displays, each one a quiet testament to years of practice, precision, and love. Someone walks in with a toddler pointing eagerly at a pink cake shaped like a unicorn. Someone else quietly picks up an anniversary cake, its edges adorned with buttercream roses.
This is Final Touch Bakery. Since 1995, it has been part of the rhythm of life in Westminster, California – the birthdays, the weddings, the graduation parties, the “just because” cakes that bring people together. It began as a dream between Sonny and Stephanie Nguyen, a husband-and-wife duo with two kids, another business, and an idea. Stephanie, balancing night classes at UCLA in French baking, fell in love with the balance of precision and artistry. That love turned into a storefront. That storefront turned into a community staple.

The Nguyen Family Touch
Walk into Final Touch Bakery and you will not just find cakes – you will find a family legacy in full bloom. Stephanie, who once juggled textbooks and toddlers, now leads a team that produces some of the most beloved custom cakes in the region. From delicate galaxy cakes inspired by Star Wars to tiered wedding towers filled with cookies and cream or passion fruit mousse, every order feels personal.
Customers like Anh and Lynh speak of years of loyalty. They remember childhood birthdays celebrated with Final Touch cakes and return for weddings and anniversaries. They speak of designs that are “beautiful and not overly sweet,” and fillings that “burst with flavor.” The artistry is apparent, but what makes this bakery unforgettable is how it makes people feel like part of the family.
Packaging That Keeps the Magic Intact
There is a quiet kind of stress in making cakes this beautiful. Hours of work go into balancing structure with softness, color with flavor, and every piped swirl of buttercream needs to arrive at its destination just as it left the shop. That is where W Packaging plays a crucial, behind-the-scenes role.
The bakery uses W Packaging’s sturdy cake boxes and clear-view containers – not because it is trendy, but because it works. These packages hold under pressure, seal in the freshness, and show off every hand-painted detail. A towering wedding cake or a dozen macarons should never gamble with flimsy packaging. Thanks to W Packaging, customers can open every box with the same excitement and awe that went into making it.
A Legacy Still Growing
Over the decades, Final Touch Bakery has become more than a business. It is a place where kids grow up picking out birthday cakes, where couples return for wedding anniversaries, where buttercream and memories are made with equal care.
And while Stephanie and Sonny built it from the ground up, they have not done it alone. From loyal customers to packaging partners like W Packaging, it has always been a community effort. Every design, every flavor, every box that carries their creations – it all adds up to something that lasts.
If you are building a bakery of your own, let Final Touch Bakery inspire you. When you are ready to protect the art you have created, W Packaging is here to help you carry it home.
