About this spot
Momentos is your go-to spot in Santa Ana for decadent cakes that look too good to be true but taste perfectly balanced. Locals flock here for the moist vanilla bean sponge and rich chocolate ganache, served alongside a cup of traditional coca tea to help with altitude sickness.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the vanilla bean cake early as it sells out quickly during peak tourist hours.
- Ask for extra whipped cream on your slice if you want a sweeter finish.
- Save room for their signature lemon tart which cuts through heavy chocolate desserts.
