The wait at opening is not bad. 20 mins or so. Staff is friendly. Drinks were very expensive $9 and $10.50 for small. Cinnamon roll latte was extremely sweet but good enough 8/10. Was not a fan of the cinnamon roll. I am truly surprised majority of people like it. (: The highlight was the oatmeal raisin cookie 10/10! Delicious! Macadamia was ok..5/10 , s'more was good 8.5/10. They have prepackaged cookies from day before at a discount price $2.50 vs $4 original price. I loved the 'yesterday' cookies. I gave them out for Mother's Day! So this made read more

The main thing I wanted to get, I froze and forgot about... the cinnamon roll. I ended up getting the cinnamon roll latte though and it was very tasty. I did get the cookies but didn't eat them until like three days later so they may have been a bit stale. That's on me. I also got the brownie and I ate that the next day, but it was quite decadent. I split it with my mom and cousin. I got my mom the banana bread and she said it was very tasty. She said it was moist as it had huge pieces of bananas. Atmosphere is very busy but friendly at the same time. There was a line to get in but they move at a decent pace. Keep in mind, it's small in there and while there are spots to chill, I wouldn't recommend as it would give me claustrophobia. It's small in there so not the spot to set up with a laptop to get work done. read more

I went here with my friends to try this place because of a friend's recommendation. As soon as we got to the door, there was a long line and lots of people waiting for their food but our order came out pretty quickly. We ordered the: Red Velvet Cookie: cookie was ok, I couldn't taste any chocolate. Toffee Chocolate Chip: this was pretty good once I ate the center where the toffee was. Matcha Cinnamon roll: was loaded with matcha, wanted to order the original cinnamon roll but wait was 20 mins so we ordered the matcha one. Banana pudding: this was my favorite and it was not too sweet. My friend ordered a cinnamon roll latte that was pretty tasty. I would def come back for the banana pudding. read more

Came here for a matcha latte because I needed a quick pick me up. I browsed their selection of baked goods and picked up a matcha cinnamon roll. The matcha latte was solid, but a bit pricey for how much they give. The matcha cinnamon roll was pretty good and not too sweet. I would get it again. The space is pretty small and kept clean. The servers were friendly and my coffee came out fast. The next time I'm in the neighborhood I want to stop by and try their other baked goods like their cookies. read more

If you come here you have to get their cookies. The smores and toffee chocolate chip cookies are some of the best cookies I've ever had. They're perfectly chewy and have crispy edges. The size is great as well. I think one cookie is a perfect serving. It is the best sweet treat to have in the Pasadena area. The only thing I didn't like from my time there was the strawberry banana matcha. The price for the size of the cup threw me off and it was also just super sweet. I think their coffees are better though. read more

My boyfriend and I love coming and trying new pastries, we tried the red velvet cake and it was so good! The iced vanilla latte is so yummy as well. We tried the s'mores brownie today and it was probably our second favorite, first being the s'mores cookie. We've tried about half the menu now, probably our favorite bakery close by. Until next time! We also usually go in the morning during the week, weekends tend to get busy. Service is always great, you can also order online. read more

Look, this place is amazing!!! I would love to come here everyday if I could afford it. I get that they are very busy especially when they come out with special cinnamon rolls which is why I went today (2/28) for the pecan and red velvet since red velvet is my favorite. I waited in line before they opened to get the special rolls but when I got home they gave me the wrong one which sucks....so now I won't get to have the red velvet one since they only had it for vday and this one special weekend. The cashier was also a bit short with me when I made my order but she smiled and laughed with everyone else. Edit: I just realized I was charged more for the red velvet and the matcha one costs less..... read more

Badash Bakes - I paid for a pecan and red velvet but got a pecan and matcha - Bakeries Near Me - Pasadena, California

I love Bad Ash Bakes. The aesthetics are sooo cute and trendy, everything feels super intentional and the whole space is really clean and organized, which I appreciate. Yes, the line can get long, but it moves fast and it's honestly worth it. I come as often as I can and will happily make the 45-minute drive for their pastries. I've actually been supporting Ashley's baking for years (just as a customer - she definitely doesn't know me). I first bought cookies from her about six years ago when she was baking out of her house, then from her ghost kitchen, and now her full bakery. Watching her grow through her pastries and social media has been so fun. She truly seems like such a gem, and I'll absolutely keep supporting her. If you go, my must try item is absolutely the s'mores cookie and pair it with a strawberry iced matcha latte! read more

Amazing bakery! The matcha cinnamon roll is everything it's hyped up to be -- soft, chewy, and absolutely delicious. I also tried the sweet potato latte, which was surprisingly good, and my friend loved her strawberry matcha drink. The s'mores brownie was a bit dense for my taste, but the matcha brownie was perfect -- more like a blondie and so flavorful. I'd definitely come back to try the original cinnamon roll and all the cookies. Come support this POC WOMEN RUN BUSINESS!! read more

Flavor packed and unforgettable! The brown butter and toffee cookies? Pure bliss. The s'mores cookie and brownie? Next level delicious. And that cinnamon roll latte? A warm hug in a cup.

August 23, 2025 Badash Bakery Pasadena @badashbakes_ This is one of the birthday surprises to me! Apparently I shared a reel of it before, but I forgot. We had the banana pudding. Soooo good! As well as the matcha-flavored cinnamon bun. The prices are a bit high, but it was definitely good! The line is out the door, so during peak summer it was hot. The inside seating was also packed so we had to eat outside. But the banana pudding is definitely worth the visit here. It's elevated compared to the banana pudding we tend to have at home. read more

You can find street parking if lucky or garage parking but you'll have to pay. Came on a Saturday morning and it wasn't too busy. You order first at the counter and they pack your order after. The options are nice with unique and traditional flavors. The cookies are good but not mind blowing, pretty sweet. My favorite item was definitely the banana pudding though. The pumpkin loaf was also good because it wasn't overtly sweet, but not as moist. It was worth a try just not sure if I'd come back again. read more

Badash had been recommended to me by a friend who recently moved in the area, and needless to say - it was a very good recommendation. There were a lot of options, and I was lured in by the Cinnamon Roll Latte and the Cinnamon Roll itself. Both, very good! All of the staff was extremely nice and welcoming in answering questions and helping to customize the best order for what we were looking for. It is a smaller space, so it did get crowded almost 10 mins after we arrived and sat down. However the overall feel of the shop is positive, but would love to see them deservedly update to a larger shop to allow for more seating space. Definitely intend to go back again. read more

Wanted some sweets after lunch from ramen and cookies and tiramisu were calling us. So we head next door and got a dozen of varieties $44 (red velvet, white chocolate macadamia, oatmeal raisin & chocolates) and a tiramisu loaf!

My best friend and I finally stopped by, and it was so good. I ordered the banana pudding--10/10. It was the perfect combo of banana, cookies, and filling. I was supposed to share it with my boyfriend, but I ate it all (not all at once ). I also got the Tiramisu cinnamon rolls because of TikTok. It was tasty, not too sweet. I ordered the cinnamon Bon Latte, and it was really sweet. Wouldn't recommended if that is not your vibe. It was a hot day, so I think the staff was just trying to get through it. There is seating, but it's limited. read more

Due to limited hours and schedule conflicts I finally gotto try Badash Bakes. I saw this business and its owner on the news if I recall. I was drawn to the business loving bakeries and loving many things matcha. If you love matcha and don't mind the occasional splurge on premium baked goods I think you will like this place. I came at a point where a feel the business has got past the initial starting phase and offers consistent quality and customer service. I didn't get to try the drinks as my main draw for me was the baked goods. What always draws me to a bakery are unique baked goods. I would say the signature items all things matcha. They have matcha cinnamon roles which is something I recommend getting, brownies, cookies and of course matcha lattes . I really loved the matcha blonde which was a stand out item for sure. All the baked goods were soft, chewy and sweet. I had a red velvet cookie which was good also. I spent around 17 dollars for, cinnamon role, cookie and blonde. I would say is reasonable for a price for that offers high quality baked goods. I would say this bakery is up there with other great pastry places in Pasadena I got to eat at like side car donuts and Artisanal Goods by Car. read more

I drove a mighty long way just to finally try the famous Badash Bakes, and let me tell you--it was worth every mile. First things first: parking is definitely a challenge. My advice is to bring a co-pilot--one person can circle for parking while the other goes inside to place the order. By the time I found a spot, the shop was literally about to close in two minutes. Even so, the owner warmly welcomed me inside, complimented my outfit (which I had only dressed up for this visit, of course!), and made me feel right at home. The staff was beyond kind--despite closing, they let me take my time and even offered that I could stay and enjoy my treats inside. Out of respect, I chose to sit outside in the fresh air while they finished closing up. And here's the kicker--while I was enjoying my desserts, another customer showed up late, and the owner graciously let her in, too. That spoke volumes about their customer service. As for the desserts? Absolutely worth the hype. Fresh, flavorful, and crafted with love--you can taste the passion in every bite. Badash Bakes is more than just a bakery; it's an experience. Excellent treats, excellent people, and excellent vibes. I'll definitely be back. read more

The cinnamon roll was very similar to Cinnabon. It had a hint of another flavor I couldn't figure out. I prefer Cinnabon (no shame in being 2nd to that at all) over this one ,because t it was still delicious.

I live on the east coast and had a friend bring me a the goods. The packaging and freshness of everything was on point so the items travel well, but the taste was different. Running a bakery is hard tedious work and I applaud the effort that chooses to do so.. I got a classic cinnamon roll, slice of red velvet cake, s'mores cookie, oatmeal raisin cookie and a toffee cookie. The cinnamon roll was pretty bland and not what I expected from a fresh made yeast raised dough. I think it could use more butter and cinnamon also. The red velvet cake was almost perfect. I make red velvet cakes and this cake is on point. Moist buttermilk based and solid. The frosting needs a cream cheese butter ratio adjustment Or a stabilizer as it is more butter than cream cheese and deconstructs easily. The cookies were all way too sugary and need more flavor depth. The best cookie was the s'mores as there was chocolate present that save that cookie. read more

Small bakery located in the busy area of Pasadena (across from the Paseo shopping area). My visit was in early August and like a lot of other people that came here (the place was busy and had a line out the door!), I saw this place mentioned or posted somewhere on social media. I think they are noted for the cinnamon rolls, but they have other baked and dessert-y items for sale like banana pudding, cookies, and different cakes. I ended up ordering a slice of carrot cake, a container of tres leches cake, banana pudding, and of course, a cinnamon roll. I also got a strawberry matcha latte that was tasty. I gave the carrot cake to a friend, but got to try all the other items. They were all delicious and the cinnamon roll went really well with my favorite coffee I had at home. The banana pudding was very tasty and had that as a dessert with some other southern style food. All in all, just a great bakery with delicious food and friendly folks. My only note would be if it were possible to get orders while in line. I think the current operating style is that you go through the line and see the items, make a mental note, and you let them know what you want when you get to the register. But again, I'm not there for hours so the place is pretty small and maybe it's not possible. Or maybe they didn't expect it to be so crazy busy. Either way, I'm sure they're doing what works best for them. read more

Believe the hype--these are some of the best cookies I've ever had. I've been eyeing Badash Bakes ever since I saw it blow up on Instagram, and I finally got to try it thanks to my brother-in-law who surprised us with a gift box of cookies. Let me just say--they lived up to every bit of the hype. We got to try a mix of flavors: Chocolate Chip S'mores Matcha White Chocolate Macadamia Peanut Butter Wow. Just wow. These are the kind of cookies I dream about--flat, moist, buttery, and rich. It's hard to pull off flat cookies without making them dry or crispy, but Badash nails the texture perfectly. Every bite was soft, gooey, and indulgent. I love that their cookies aren't overly sweet either--they strike a great balance, letting the butteriness and flavor shine through. If you like chewy, melt-in-your-mouth cookies, this is your place. I definitely plan to visit in person soon so I can try more of their other baked goods and drinks. Based on the cookies alone, I already know I'll be a repeat customer. read more

BadAsh Bakes has been in my saved "Places to Visit" on Yelp for a while now. I finally went on Friday and it was a decent experience. Parking can be a drag but I was able to squeeze into a spot infront of the store. When we walked in it was cozy but aesthetically pleasing. The cookies and pastries are set up for you to view and when you get to the front of the line you place your order. My order was half a dozen cookies + 1: (2) oatmeal - taste: 6/10 chocolate chip - taste: 8/10 *toffee - taste: 10/10 white chocolate macadamia - smaller than the rest and taste was: 5/10 *matcha - taste: 10/10 double chocolate - taste:6/10 The *toffee cookie and *matcha cookie were really good and the best to me. The cookies were thin which I wasn't expecting and I wanted to get a matcha roll and cinnamon roll but they had gnats flying around those -- which was upsetting. This review is reflective of my visit on 9/26/25 - Time: 2:10 pm. read more

I came by near opening time on a Friday morning to have breakfast and stay and knit for a bit. I have seen Badash Bakes on social media so I decided to swing by. Parking in the area includes free parking by the city hall, metered street parking the same block and blocks nearby, as well as a paid parking structure across the street. Decor is cute and feels inviting, there is indoor and outdoor seating though there is not much so do not necessarily expect to find a place to sit. Baked goods are located in a glass display (with discounted $2 day old cookies on top!) but you have to order at the register in the back even if you just want pastries. Strawberry matcha (iced, 50% sweetness), 4/5, this was solid; definitely allows the matcha to shine, hints of strawberry in this. I opted for this vs the regular matcha latte per cashier recommendation that it would be less sweet. I will be back to try another one of their drinks! Matcha cinammon roll 4.5/5, soft and mushy like a cinnamon roll should be, definitely sweet like a cinnamon roll Very enjoyable though finding a definitive matcha flavor beyond green is challenging to discern Matcha cookie 3/5, a normal soft cookie, I did get the day old one but I couldn't tell that there was any aging in it whatsoever. matcha flavor is once again challenging to discern read more

I had heard a lot about this place. Saw it go viral. But it was one of the worst matchas I've ever had not just in LA. Very bitter and powdery. Not creamy or silky or smooth. It left a bad lingering after taste and I've had really good strong matcha before. Won't be coming back. Waste of money. Really pricey for the quantity and quality. read more

I finally had the chance to visit BadAsh Bakes, and it felt like a full-circle moment. I've been a fan since the owner was selling cookies through TikTok. I even ordered before the storefront existed so coming here in person was really special. When I stopped by around 3 p.m. on a Saturday, there was a line out the door, but it moved pretty quickly. I ordered the Double Matcha, which was a good, authentic matcha. I also ordered the Matcha Cinnamon Roll, honestly incredible. I'm still thinking about it! I also grabbed a Chocolate Chip Cookie that was just right, not overly sweet, but perfectly balanced. I wanted to try the Brown Sugar Cookie, but they were already sold out (a good sign, I guess!). The bakery itself is really cute, though it did feel a bit crowded inside. There was one piece of furniture that made traffic flow tricky. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend BadAsh Bakes! read more

Even my partner enjoys them, which makes me so happy because we can come here and enjoy them together! The service is always excellent, and the drinks are good as well.

Bakery with cinnamon rolls, cookies, brownies available in both traditional and "twist" styles (example matcha brownies). Ambiance: The line moves pretty quick. There is couch seating and window seating for about 8 people but since the line moves through the area it is not necessarily a relaxing or quiet area. There is also 2 small tables outside. Parking; be warned, street parking is hard to come by (also costs $), there are nearby parking lots but also cost $. read more

Overhyped unfortunately. Got the cinnamon roll, s'mores cookie, corn cookie, and brown sugar cookie. Cinnamon roll 7/10 - best item of the bunch. A bit undercooked. Frosting reminiscent of cupcake frosting! Cookies 5.5/10 - All the cookies tasted similar despite the different names. Kind of a fail there :/ I had high hopes but can't recommend the cookies. I will say the texture is great and consistent throughout all the cookies! But they shouldn't all be consistent in flavor. The corn flavor, brown sugar flavor, and s'mores flavor was so mild in all of them. It felt like the same cookie base with a hint of flavor. Kind of like flavored sparkling water. Service: 5/10 The woman taking my order was not rude per se but her demeanor immediately dropped when she was interacting with me. Just weird energy. Coming from the service industry, I personally feel like hospitality goes a long way for someone going out of their way to patronize your business. read more

Well the lines have finally died down and I got to try Baker Ashley's baked goods. I walked away with the original cinnamon roll and matcha cinnamon roll, carrot cake, and several varieties of cookies, including toffee chocolate chip, s'mores, oatmeal raisin, and white chocolate macadamia. Of the two rolls, my family's preferred the original. Matcha over cinnamon filling isn't bad but I'm not a big enough matcha fan. The best part of the rolls is how soft and tender the bread is. They were moist and just probably the best cinnamon rolls I've ever tried. We also liked the cookies which were the thin, chewy variety. S'mores with a big melted blob of marshmallow was a hit but they were all good. The carrot cake was not my favorite mostly because I strongly missed having cream cheese frosting on it. Overall, a great addition to Pasadena. read more

With all the hype around this place, I expected a bit more. I've visited twice; first time I got a cookie (they are very thin yet crunchy and soft) and this time I got their new banana pudding. Pudding wins over cookies for sure, 7/10. I also tried their matcha cookie but there was no matcha flavor at all. It's a very small establishment so prepare for grab and go orders. They are very fast with orders. read more

In the immortal words of Public Enemy, "Don't believe the hype." Well, in this case...the hype is real! People have been lining up for Tick-Tok influencer Ashley Cunningham's signature cinnamon rolls (traditional & matcha) since the shop opened about a month ago. Ashley is a classically trained chef and a self-taught baker. Her sweet treats are made from scratch daily with love and high-quality ingredients. I arrived on a Saturday at 8:30 and was fortunate that there was no line - just two people ahead of me. The shop is cozy & welcoming with big fluffy couches to sit on while you wait for your order. The pastry case is filled with cookies, muffins, brownies, banana bread, cakes, and even banana pudding. Coffee & tea beverages are available too. The staff are friendly & courteous. I ordered a classic cinnamon roll and a slice of coffee cake. I sat on the fluffy couch while I waited for my order, which wasn't long. The cinnamon roll exceeded my expectations. It was pillowy soft, with a perfect amount of cinnamon filling, and the cream cheese icing was chef's kiss. It was by far the BEST cinnamon roll ever! The coffee cake was moist with a crunchy crumb topping. I saved half of each for the next day and they were still soft & fresh and tasted even better when warmed up. I can't wait to go back for a brownie, some cookies, and that banana pudding. Kudos to Chef Ashley. *Metered street parking. read more

I got to Badash Bakes right when they opened at 8am. Tip: street parking in Pasadena is free before 11am. I placed a big order to share with friends and family: cinnamon rolls, brownies, cookies, and coffee cake. Everyone agreed the cookies and cinnamon rolls were the standouts. You order and pay at the register first, then pick up on the bakery side where they'll call your name. I'm giving them 3.5 stars overall, mainly because of the steep prices and a disappointing matcha strawberry latte with oat milk. It was so watered down that I could barely taste the matcha. That said, it's still worth stopping by as an occasional treat. I'm glad I waited until the initial hype died down. There was no lines, no wait, and a smoother experience. read more

Was sad to see FrenchiFornia close up after 5+ years in Pasadena and wondered what would take over the retail space. After the signage went up for Badash Bakes, posts all over IG started popping up about their unique baked goods. I was definitely intrigued with their matcha cinnamon roll. Every time we walked or drove by, we'd see a line and finally decided to stop by on a Thursday at around 1130. Though they had patrons dining inside and out, there wasn't a line to place an order! As they clearly state that cinnamon rolls are served until 12 and cookies are served after 12, we were fortunate to be able to sample both items. Matcha cinnamon roll - this was then one item I was excited to try as it was very unique. After trying it, not sure I like the combination of matcha and cinnamon. The only difference between the matcha and regular is simply with the icing. Cinnamon roll - thought this was the best item we sampled. Though it wasn't hot, I thought it was perfectly baked with the perfect amount of cinnamon and icing. Would definitely come back for this in the morning. Cookies - we ended up ordering a dozen (doubled up on both the matcha and toffee chocolate chip). Had high hopes as all of videos on IG kept stating how good they were but wasn't impressed with them. The best in my opinion was the toffee chocolate chip and the s'mores due to the uniqueness. I think I'd rather have a Levain or b. patisserie cookie if craving one. As we took the items home for consumption, didn't try their drinks so may have to come back for that another day. Will also be interesting to compare their banana pudding against Magnolia's. read more

I have been having Badash Bakes on my list for awhile, just that it's tad far away. Knowing they had a collab this week serving Matcha Blondies, I just couldn't make any more excuse to push it down my to-go list. As expected, weekend and it's the last day of the collab, made it perfect reason to see long waiting line. Unfortunately they also didn't do online pre-order on the day (big frowned). The bakery took place at Pasadena's center of crowd, which was also the arrays of some other popular spots to dine. It's super cute from the outside, looking like classic elegant French cafe. Going inside at its peak hour was quite overwhelming though as it's packed with people trying to find spots to stand LOL. Order placement was swift enough considering how busy it was. It might not be a perfect sit down space with that condition and you could indeed see most people order for to-go. All the attendants were so cheerful and welcoming, delivering that positive vibes to shoo away any irritation from the long wait. Besides the Matcha Blondies which brought me there, I was trying to go for the house 'regulars' as well to make my drive worthy. Torn between the cinnamon roll and the cookie, I just asked for the attendant's reco and she told me to opt for the latter, also further convincing me as I picked the Toffee Chocolate Chip cookie saying it's her fave. Well, needless to say much, the picture of the Matcha Blondies could tell you how fudgy and rich it was, worth every single calorie I spent on it. The matcha flavor stood out as strong as the color could tell you, with impeccable balance between sweet and pleasing bitter hint. I would highly pitch for keeping it permanently (pretty please)! As for the cookie, if you're thin and chewy cookie gang, I could see you loving it. It's a matter of preference, but I'm still within the boat of thick gooey one. Taste wise it's pretty decent with generous mix-ins. They did offer much more flavors to try. Would come back for their cinnamon rolls or the matcha drinks another time! read more

Good but not great. Nothing special or memorable. The drinks were not good. They seemed pretty watery. The Dubai drink just tastes like chocolate milk so you're better off just getting a Yoo-hoo from the liquor store for a couple bucks instead honestly. They said the pistachio was in the cream but it didn't taste like pistachio whatsoever so they must have skipped a step, surely. The Strawberry milk lacked flavor and was also watery tasting. Cookies were good. We tried s'mores, toffee, white chocolate macadamia, matcha, cornbread, and chocolate chip (which had a single piece of chocolate in it like wtf?). They were all solid tasty cookies but not memorable. Red velvet cake was good. The cream cheese frosting tastes whipped so it's a much lighter tasting version of red velvet cake if you're into that kinda thing. Good but def would prefer it to be full fat haha Lemon loaf itself was pretty decent but the glaze was bitter as if they overzested and got too much of the pith in it. Matcha roll was decent. A lot of people were ordering the matcha drinks which we didn't try but also they're $9 each c'mon now. Service is good. Line is long but moves decently fast. Same goes for the time it takes to make your drink and or getting your sweet treats. Supposedly they were to have matcha blondies today and tomorrow but we didn't see any on display. Lively atmosphere but small space so definitely not for big groups. It is cozy though with generous seating options considering the size of the bakery. Glad we went but in no hurry to go back. read more

Badash Bakes is one of my favorite bakeries in Pasadena! From the ambience to the products themselves, it is truly a bakery for the girlies that doesn't compromise on quality. Ashley's labor of love is evident from the attention to details on the menu to the final products that we get to enjoy. I visited with my friend and we were excited to dive into everything and can't wait to go back and try more. The wait on a Friday afternoon wasn't too bad and even though there is limited seating, we were still able to find some space to enjoy our drinks and pastries indoors. I wish they had longer open hours but running a small business takes so much work, I absolutely respect the boundaries! read more
