    I stumbled across Azteca Bakery while getting tacos in a plaza with four Mexican food businesses. It's a very cool plaza (Bakery, Meat Shop, Taqueria and Paleteria) and I highly recommend going. I don't have much experience with Mexican bakeries so I can't say it how it stacks up against other Mexican bakeries or Mexican baking styles. I was impressed with the appearance of the baked goods. Items were big, colorful and well displayed. Donuts. Muffins. Pan Dulce. Cookies. Pastries. Terrific eye candy. I only bought three things, but I didn't connect with any of them. I bought a large sprinkle cookie. It had a mildly sweet flavor and a harder texture. I also bought a chocolate chip muffin. It was pretty good, but a couple steps down from my favorite muffin places. I also bought a croissant shaped slightly sweet bread. It may have been a type of pan dulce, but I'm not sure if it technically was. It was fine. I wouldn't get it again, but I kind of feel that way about pan dulce in general. I'm torn between 3 and 4 Stars. Even though I didn't connect with what I ordered, I'm going with 3.5 Stars and rounding up to 4 Stars because I'm not aware of many similar bakeries, the items look great and I'm not the most qualified person to judge Mexican baked goods. In general, the items seem to have an understated flavor profile as a matter of style. If I was in the plaza, I would try Azteca again. Otherwise, I'll stick with my current fav bakeries.

    This perfect little bakery is one of the luckiest finds in Wallingford. It is truly an experience. It is sandwiched between two other amazing food establishments. Truly the trifecta. When you go in, you grab a tray and tongs and start picking out your delicious items. From breads to layers pastries, you can't miss. I personally draw to anything with their guava filling. The breads are done well and their colors will draw you in. After you pick all of your pastries you head to the counter where your choices are not done yet. The case is full of cakes and refrigerated desserts such as tres leche, flan, cheesecake, etc. My husband can confirm that they are worth every dairy filled bite. They also had a freezer with ice cream cakes. Definitely a good spot for a quick cake! This affordable little gem is a must stop.

    I absolutely love bakeries, and there's nothing better than finding a top-notch Mexican bakery! I got a bag filled with delicious baked goods, and not only was everything super tasty, it was also very inexpensive. The bakery is not very large in size but there is a great big parking lot. However, it is packed to the brim with tasty treats, and I mean wall to wall. It has a generous selection that would have something for everyone. Very clean, and all the food looked very fresh. I'd recommend coming here hungry because this little plaza seems like a gem.

    I really enjoyed my experience at this bakery. I just happened upon it on my quest for tacos one day. When you walk in you are greeted with friendly customer service and shelves of fresh, shiny egg-washed pastries. Classics with a twist on flavors. There was so much to choose from and I enjoyed a strawberry and cheese danish-like pasty and an almost cinnamon roll like pastry minus the frosting. They had ice cream cakes and jello like creations in a fridge up front. I would definitely stop again if in the area.

    A cute little place with friendly, helpful people. I was there at 930 and most of their product,…read moreparticularly the cakes and cookies were already sold. I found their offerings interesting and inventive but I wasn't blown away. I like that the pastries are properly baked so they are darker and more crisp than most places. The guava one was good, but very messy as there were square, white chunks of filling mixed with the guava preserves so they were loose and fell out when I bit into it. The Cinnabon style bun was completely cooked through, which I appreciate since the actual Cinnabons tend to be doughy inside. These ones are glazed with a bit of icing instead of cream cheese frosting; I enjoyed it, but I would have liked a little more. The chocolate croissant was generously filled with a good, dark chocolate, just the right amount, just loose enough to coat the inside. I didn't taste any orange in the orange poppy muffin and I'm not a fan of strusel topping on a muffin, as I like muffin tops. All in all not bad, I will give it another try if next time I have a weekend day off.

Once again I had difficulty choosing a breakfast pastry because all looked so mouth watering. This time I settled on a pair of blueberry buns that proved to be larger than expected so on returning home my wife and I decided to share one and save the other for the following day. Unfortunately the outside of the bun was too dense and flavor lite though the much smaller, interior part, was as delicious as expected. I will no doubt be returning in the not too distant future to sample more of their delicious pastries as should you.

    Placed an order for a 6" cake on a Wednesday to pick up on a Friday. The person that took the order…read morewas super nice and asked me to email her a picture of the cake off their website that I liked. Picked it up at the time they told me I could and I was in and out in under a minute. The cake was ADORABLE but horribly dry and crumbly. The buttercream frosting was ok but not super buttery. It was cute but no one finished their slice and we ended up throwing almost the whole cake out. Maybe it was an off day but didn't feel like it was worth the $60.00 we paid.

Snapshot: Food: 5/5 Drink: NA Vibe: NA Service: 5/5 Value: 5/5 ‍‍ Family-Friendly: NA Highlights: Perfect For: Beautiful, custom cakes for special occasions All The Details: Overdue review! My first experience with Alyssa's Cakery in Wallingford was for my baby shower cake, and it was fantastic. Searching for cake options in the greater Hamden area, Alyssa's not only emerged as one of the most affordable but also the best in terms of customer service. They were incredibly easy to work with and completely captured my vision for a naked cake. The cake was not only beautiful but also delicious, and it was ready right on time. It's hard to ask for more when it comes to preparing for a special event. Alyssa's Cakery's combination of quality, value, and customer service makes it a top choice for anyone in need of a special occasion cake. I will definitely be returning next time I'm in the area!

    What a cute place! Cozy and inviting! We were lucky enough to come at a time when Chan was there…read more What a lovely & talented woman! We ended up with a box of goodies that were all amazing! There were red velvet/ cream cheese little cakes, chocolate with graham and marshmallow, cheese danish, jalapeño cookies, fruit tarts, and one that had cheese and meatballs. Amazing. They also serve coffee, lattes, espresso...go give Chan some love.

    #40 in my NEW ENGLAND & NY COFFEE SHOP SERIES…read more This is an Asian-owned, female-owned bakery and coffee shop with delicious Asian-inspired pastries and fun drinks! We came on a Sunday around 10:30am and they were almost out of some of their pastries. Definitely go there earlier. But that just shows how fresh everything is! Firstly, all of the pastries looked delicious! It was so hard to just pick one so we needed up picking 3. Cheesy hotdog bread, kbbq short rib bread, and a cranberry cream cheese pastry. They were all SOOO GOOD! The bread is so soft and the flavors were delicious. They have lots of fun seasonal drinks, caffeinated and non-caffeinated. They also have boba! I got an ube banana latte and my friend got their seasonal Coquito latte which was recommended. Both were delicious (and very strong). The service was immaculate. I didn't catch the cashier's name but she was younger with brown hair. The sweetest person ever! Definitely made the experience more enjoyable. The owner, Chan also gifted us a piece of delicious oreo cake for fun! It was so yummy and not too sweet. I cannot recommend this place enough!
