Kassey bakes them from scratch, to order, in small batches in Fullerton, CA. This post walks through when each size makes sense, so your order request is clear the first time.

Mini banana bread or a full loaf: which to order at a glance
The two sizes differ in price and in how you will use them. Here is the short version.
| Item | Price | Best thought of as |
|---|---|---|
| Mini Banana Bread | $5 each | An individual treat |
| Large Banana Bread Loaf | $25 | One whole loaf to share or give |
Both are made fresh for your date. Neither is mass-produced, and neither comes from a mix or the freezer. You can see both on the banana bread page.
What you get with a mini banana bread ($5 each)
A mini banana bread is $5 each. You choose how many you want, and you pay for each one. That makes the mini flexible. Request the quantity you would like, and ask Kassey to confirm.
The mini format may suit individual gifts. Ask Kassey about size and portions if those matter for your plans.
The price is simple to plan around. Because every mini banana bread is a separate item, you can adjust the count in your request without changing the format of the order.
What you get with the large banana bread loaf ($25)
The large banana bread loaf is $25. It is one whole loaf, baked fresh for your date. You get a centerpiece rather than a set of individual pieces.
A full loaf suits moments where food is shared at a table. Someone sets it out, cuts it, and people take what they like. It also works as a single gift to one household, because you are handing over one whole thing.
I will not tell you how many slices a loaf makes or how many people it feeds. Ask Kassey how the loaf size fits your serving plans. If portions matter for your event, say so in your request and ask her when she replies.
When a mini banana bread is the better order
Pick minis when you want to hand out individual pieces. Some situations where that makes sense:
- You are giving to several people. Each person gets their own, and nobody needs a knife or a plate.
- You want to adjust the count. Mini banana bread is $5 each, so you can add or remove one without changing your whole plan.
- You are ordering for one person. Mini Banana Bread is $5 each. Ask Kassey to confirm the quantity you would like for your date.
- You are building a mixed order of treats. A mini sits easily next to other items on the menu.
Minis also fit the way people move around at an event. If guests are standing and talking, a self-contained item is easier than a loaf that needs cutting. For event planning in general, the post on planning a dessert table for a graduation party covers how different treats work together.
When the full loaf is the better order
Pick the large loaf when you want one substantial item. Think about these cases:
- You are bringing food to a shared table. One loaf is easy to carry and set out.
- You want a single gift. One whole loaf for a host or a neighbor feels like a complete gift.
- You want to keep it at home. If you want banana bread around for the household to cut into, the loaf is the natural fit.
- You prefer one item to many. The large banana bread loaf at $25 is a single line in your request.
One practical note on price. The two items are different formats, and the choice should follow how you plan to serve them, not the dollar figure.
Ordering both sizes, or adding conchas and cookies
You can ask for both sizes in one request. One possible request is a large loaf for the table and a few minis for people who want to take something home. Write the quantities of each in your request, and Kassey will confirm the details and pricing when she replies.
You can also add other items from the menu. Here is how the prices line up:
- Chocolate conchas: $5 each. A Mexican bakery classic with a chocolate twist, soft sweet bread topped with a crispy chocolate shell.
- Brownie cookies or chocolate chip cookies: $5 for 2. The brownie cookie is fudgy with crisp edges and gooey centers. The chocolate chip cookie is thick and chewy.
- Mini cake loaves: $5 each. Ask about available mini cake loaf flavors.
If you add conchas, the post on keeping conchas fresh for the next day is a useful read. The full list is on the menu page.
If your plan is bigger than a few loaves, look at dessert catering. The Sweet Treat Table starts at $250 and is built for 20 to 40 guests. Full Dessert Catering is a custom quote for 50+ guests. Both are fully customizable starting points.
How far ahead to request your banana bread
Banana bread is made to order, so timing matters. For regular orders, send your request at least 3 to 5 days ahead. Weekends fill up fast, so give yourself more room if your date falls on one. Catering and large orders need at least 2 weeks.
Remember that a request is not a confirmed order. You send the form, then Kassey replies within 24 to 48 hours to confirm the details, pricing and date. Pickup details are confirmed with your order. Individual orders are pickup only. Delivery is available for catering orders for an additional fee, and the fee may depend on distance.
For catering, a deposit secures your date and full payment is due 3 days before the event. Kassey takes Venmo, Zelle, Apple Cash, Cash App, PayPal or cash. A deposit may also be required for custom orders.
If you are not sure what to ask before you commit, what to ask a home baker before ordering event desserts gives you a checklist.
