Proper Bakery + Cafe operates as a hybrid counter-and-cafe format on Jefferson Avenue in Murrieta — part retail bakery case with grab-and-go pastries and treats, part sit-down seating where customers linger with coffee and a plate. The operation centers on what moves through a morning or weekend rush: breakfast pastries, bread, and smaller cakes rather than custom multi-tier wedding commissions or elaborate decorated-cake specialty work. The format suits regular weekday customers stopping in for a coffee and something to eat, families grabbing birthday cakes for small gatherings, and Saturday mornings when locals want pastries and a table instead of driving to Old Town or further into the valley. For elaborate custom cakes with months-advance ordering and consultation, the specialized custom-cake shops are the match. For the everyday "I need something for the office tomorrow" or "grab a pastry while you're parked," Proper fills that straightforward slot with both counter service and the option to sit.

On Falcon Way in Murrieta, Shweets by SheShe operates as a custom cake and dessert shop built around decorated cakes for events rather than a walk-in pastry counter or everyday bakery lineup. The focus is custom orders — birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and celebration cakes designed to specification — handled through advance consultation and pickup rather than a sit-down cafe format or impulse-grab case. The model suits planners who know a celebration date weeks ahead and want a custom design conversation, not a preordered sheet cake from a grocery bakery. For last-minute birthday runs, grabbing a donut before work, or weekend coffee with a croissant, the cafe-format bakeries elsewhere in Murrieta fill that slot. For someone with a specific vision — custom flavor, specific theme, dietary need — who's willing to book ahead and pick up on a set date, this is the right fit. Lead times shift with season; major gift-giving periods and summer party season compress availability faster than winter months.

TK's Donuts operates as a counter-service donut shop on Kalmia Street in Murrieta, built around a straightforward formula: fresh donuts made daily, a rotating case of glazed and filled varieties, and coffee to go with them. The operation is geared toward volume and turnover rather than custom decoration or event orders — this is a grab-and-go bakery, not a special-occasion cake business or sit-down cafe. The clientele runs to weekday morning commuters, parents on school-run duty, anyone craving a quick pastry before work or after a weekend breakfast run. For a child's birthday cake or a tiered wedding dessert, the custom cake decorators elsewhere in the valley are the right fit. For the Tuesday morning dozen or the Friday box-of-six habit, TK's fills that routine, no-fuss slot — order at the counter, pay, walk out with a white box.
First of all, these are great doughnuts. But, the doughnuts are getting much smaller. I first noticed it in the Boston Cremes, but now on their twists. The other problem is that their prices are rising. This is bad business. I have no problem paying more for the same size, but shrinking donuts ...
So good I almost forgot to take a picture before finishing the first donut. Has very nice doughy softness to it and had a great taste to it as well. The actual donut place seemed a bit run down. But the lady there was quick and attentive while serving us I would recommend anyone here looking for a q...
I love this place! They have a great variety of donuts and they all taste super good! Everything is very consistent! Would love if they could try and make a traditional bear claw with the almond filling 🫶🏻 Will keep coming back!
