I've tried going to bake sum on like three different occasions, but always gave up because I couldn't find parking lol well we finally made it in a few weeks ago and it def lived up to the hype! I loveeee flaky savory pastries so the okonomiyaki danish and the croissubi were right up my alley. My fave was hands down the okonomiyaki danish. The flavors blended together sooo well and the puff pastry on the outside complemented it so well. I reheated it in the air fryer when I got home, and it was perfection. The croissubi was also good but I think I just don't like the flavor of seaweed and spam together that much lol I get that that's exactly what a spam musubi is, so that's a me issue. Maybe it would have been better if there was more spam. Then we also got a jasmine and honeydew milk bun because I also love cream filled pastries. Surprisingly, I actually liked the honeydew more than the jasmine, even though I'm normally more into tea flavors and don't particularly enjoy the flavor of honeydew. But this one was fragrant and not too overpowering or artificial tasting. Overall rlly nice. I also love that the shop sells art from local creators and small batch goods! I was able to pick up some hey doh silky soy sauce, which was really nice and better than I expected! read more

After drooling after these fun, creative ideas online for a while, I was happy I finally got to try Bake Sum! They switch up the menu every month, so it's fun to see what creative ideas with Asian flair they come up with next! ** Strawberry kinako croissant (4/5): cute croissant muffin shape with a soybean powder cream filling topped with a few strawberry slices. It was a very straightforward soy flavor without any discernible strawberry flavor. I'm a fan of that soy flavor, so it paired well with the sugary croissant bread (which was nicely laminated and textured)! Wonder if it would taste better with more strawberry flavor? :) ** Croissubi (4.5/5): this one is one of their signature pastries. I didn't try this one but MT really enjoy this and gobbled it all down! He said it wasn't as salty as a traditional spam masubi and really enjoyed it. ** chocolate banana croissant (3.5/5): I'm biased as I'm not a huge banana fan and this one was stronnnnng on the banana flavor. The topping/filling is also on the runny side so it's a messy treat! The croissant bread portion wasn't very light and airy but the heartier texture probably worked better with the liquidy filling. I can see banana lovers really enjoying this one though! ** mochi bites (2/5): tried the brown butter and the black sesame-- the first one didn't taste like anything and the black sesame was fragrant but not sweet enough for me. They might have tasted better warmed up though? ** black sesame snickerdoodle cookie (3.5/5): crunchy crispy edges with a softer, chewier but still slightly cakey interior. It had the fragrance of black sesame but mostly tasted like a sugar cookie instead of a snickerdoodle (I'm a cinnamon lover so really missed the cinnamon on this!). ** cocobae cookie (4/5): coconut and ube! Definitely fragrant and flavorful with both the coconut and ube flavors. The texture was also crunchy/crispy on the edges and softer/slightly chewy/slightly cakey in the middle. Not my favorite texture but this had a better flavor profile than the black sesame cookie in my opinion. Service was pleasant and straightforward. There are some cute stationery, pins, cookbooks, etc. to browse too. No inside seating, but there are a few tables outside to enjoy your treats. I'm happy that I checked out this super cute shop, and although I probably won't be back in a while (I'm from out of town), it's worth checking out if you're in the area! read more

First, I want to give special recognition to the okonomiyaki danish. The creativity of this pastry truly surpassed my expectations. I was especially impressed by the distinct layers of flaky, buttery dough. The flavors were spot on, highlighting the signature cabbage along with a rich brown glaze and mayo that perfectly captured the essence of okonomiyaki. Another standout was the milk conchas. My favorite was the strawberry--it was exceptional. The concha shape and texture were beautifully executed, and the addition of luscious cream made it even more indulgent. I'm still thinking about how delicious that strawberry one was. read more

Good luck finding parking. Nice interior but small, outdoor seating, interesting flavors, aesthetic vibe, asian-owned, affordable pastries.

We came for the Asian fusion croissants, which were indeed delicious, but actually I really liked the black sesame cookie, and the hojicha cookie (hojicha is roasted matcha). Do check their website for store hours, we timed our visit to be right after lunch since they were scheduled to close from noon to 1 pm for their lunch as well. On Sundays there are free street parking, and if you wanted to dig into your treats right away, they had a few little tables with stools outside as well. read more

Matt continues his excellent East Bay Bakeries tour. In 2024, the New York Times said that the Croissubi at Bake Sum was one of 26 best dishes across the US. I had to try it. The Crosissubi is essentially a croissant. "Topped with Parmesan and togarashi, a blend of dried red chile, sesame seeds and seaweed, the flaky, laminated layers form the perfected honeycomb cavern of a traditional croissant -- with Spam suspended in the middle." The addition of seaweed is not a favorite food palate of mine, but definitely worth a try I also purchased the Almond Cake which pairs nicely with a hot coffee or tea, it's moist and not too sweet. I'd go back daily for this simple treat. And the Chocolate Chunk Cookie with Maldon Salt. So many interesting cookie options to choose from, but how could I say no to a Chocolate Chunk Cookie. Baked goods seem to be on a rotation, so each time you visit you may find something different to try. Matt says if you are in the Grand Avenue area for the Farmers Market or taking in a movie at the Grand Lake theater, it's a short walk to Bake Sum. read more

Bake Sum opened where Fog City Bakehouse once was. Small display counter where sales are also placed. Choose bakes & drinks of choice. Both will arrive within minutes. Seen long lines before. Not today. Arrived just before the lunch break. No seating inside. 4 tables outside. Parking easier to find one block over near Starbucks... Bake Sum is known for their innovative bakes which fuses Asian American food flavas with American & European bakes. Offerings are ever changing. Drinks the usual: matcha, teas, lattes, cold brew.. Most bakes should be eaten asap. Dryness changes flava profile. Cookie lasts the longest. Bites: black sesame snickerdoodle cookie(4.50) -the usual buttery, sugared, vanilla extract tinged thick moist cookie infused with black sesames & roasted black sesame essence. Exquisite! Gochujang pull apart(5.50) -mini bread cubes aka pull a parts with familiar flava with strong glaze of spicy, slightly hot gochujang sauce, green onions, veggie shreds.. Okonomiyaki Danish (5.75) -usual flaky danish & flava with toppings of green onions, veggie shreds, bonito flakes, kewpie mayo, okonomiyaki sauce. A symphony of yumminess. Passion fruit lime cruffin(8) -looks like a mini beehive. Whipped cream & dried thin lime section on top. Typical cruffin breading. Inside filled with passion fruit purée, lime zest. -nice clash of tart and semi sweet notes. 5 stars worthy. Quality: excellent Quantity: reasonable. read more

What a fun bakery! Love all the options and flavors. Loved everything that I tried and want to return asap! Love the savory options too. Okonomiyaki danish - this was the most unique item and was truly delicious. Crisp pastry and excellent savory filling. Mochi bites - I was surprised by how much the lychee flavor came through. The Thai tea one however had very little tea flavor. I love the texture of these though very crisp on the outside and nice chew on the inside. Milk bun - nice, soft bread, crisp topping and most importantly, a good bread to cream ratio. Nice tea flavor I haven't seen a milk bun with this flavor before! Black sesame cookie - crisp edge, chewy middle, black sesame flavor just there, not very heavy. Coffee is very light and quite sour. Hojicha latte was delicious but surprisingly sweet. read more

Great bakery. We used to find their pastries at Asha Tea House in Oakland. It is a Small space in Grand Lake area in Oakland and within vicinity of Lake Merritt. There is no seating inside but there is some chairs and tables set up outside. Favorites would be their broad interpretation of pastries that combine croissants and buns with a worldy taste. Their Japanese okonomiyaki croissant is such a surprise. The croissant remains crisp and the vision and taste of okonomiyaki remains without making the entire pastry mushy. That's pretty amazing. It comes complete with the bonito flakes that you'd find with okonomiyaki and the flakes have not fully shriveled, meaning the pastry has been made fresh. I am a lavender earl grey fanatic. There is a milk bun there that resembles a Mexican concha and it is creme filled with lavender earl grey. Pastries here are not too sweet and greatly balanced. Parking is tricky but there's a lot across the street and diagonal parking. Pay your meters. read more

I was excited to give this bakery a try since it's all over social media and the high reviews on Yelp. Not sure when they opened, but I guess this spot is still trending. We decided to stop by for a few pastries since we were in the area. There were a few people already in line when we arrived but it moved fairly quickly. The interior is small but very cute. There are seats available outside. Brown butter and Thai Tea mochi bite were just ok - a bit dry and wasn't chewy. We also got a Okonomiyaki Danish (savory pastry) and it was very filling but was also just ok. I did enjoy the almond croissant but wish it was warmed up. It was light and airy. Overall, the pastries were just ok. I would probably stick to the croissants if I do end up coming back. read more

I have a bad habit of going to BakeSum too late in the day even though I know they always sell out pretty quick! Get there bright and early or pre-order if you're looking to get a good amount of pastries. We went this past Saturday in hopes of our favorite, the Okonomiyaki Danish. It has a buttery layered pastry with a soft boiled egg in the middle-- heaven! But we were too late. Thankfully, they were making a fresh batch of their Black Sesame and Coconut Ube cookies. Of course we had to get a cookie! I also go for the Coconut Ube, it's not too sweet & coconut pairs so well with Ube. The cookie itself is also slightly crispy on the edges and has a lovely chewy middle. We also grabbed a Matchamisu! It was our first time trying it and it won't be our last. The perfect amount of matcha is infused into the cream layers while the coffee soaked layers don't overpower the matcha. And, best of all, it's not too sweet! This past visit was the first time I noticed their day-olds basket. Sadly, it was also empty, but I love businesses that offer this! Rather than toss everything at the end of the day, they package items that are slightly more shelf stable and sell them at a discounted cost. I always enjoy being greeted by the staffs chorus of "welcome in!" & pink cafe aesthetic, it really just sets such a great tone for my day! Next time, I'll be sure to get there early so I can finally get my hands on that danish again! (Also they're dog friendly! They have a jar of dog treats by the window for your furry friends) read more

Went there to provide a few samples of their desserts to my coworkers who were curious about this place. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and had great recommendations. They took the guess work out of ordering by asking me a number of questions to help them tailor an order to my situation. The inside of the place was very inviting and they even offer dog treats in a jar that is nowhere near the human food. There are lots of cute little trinkets and different menus options to choose from. The desserts are unique and unlike any I've ever seen. The flavors boast a successful collaboration of Asian fusion into desserts. The favorite among staff was the croissant that somehow has spam worked into it, the banana chocolate croissant, and the coconut one cookie. Our staff will now be regulars there! read more

I'm really glad I was able to try this place however im sad that it was short of my expectations. We had to wait over 30+ mins in line, and there was a lack of efficient operations aka the cashier stops taking orders to make drinks which backed up the line even further. by the time we got to the front, all pastry items were sold out and there was not any communication to the people waiting in line. This was not ideal so we weren't able to get any pastries and had to opt for drinks. The hojicha was good though, but unfortunately I don't think I would come back here. read more

My friend and I tried the halo halo bun($10), green onion croissant($6), and okonomiyaki danish ($6) and really loved them. The halo halo bun was a mutual favorite and nothing I've found and other bakeries. It's filled with so many things like coconut and some red bean reminiscent of a halo halo. The green onion croissant reminded us of a green onion Jian bing. The Okonomiyaki danish tasted like Okonomiyaki but with the butteriness of the danish. This is a locally owned business in the Bay Area that we should definitely support. Definitely check it out if you're in the oakland area. read more

I got the spam musubi croissant, pandan milk bread, hojicha cookie and pumpkin spice cruffin. I think all the pastries are good but not amazing. My favorites were the hojicha cookie, perfect amount of chocolate and a decent hojicha flavor and a good amount of chew to crisp. The pumpkin spice cruffin had a really good texture but I'm personally not a fan of pumpkin spice so I would get it again if it was a different flavor. The spam musubi croissant was probably a big disappointment for me since I was expecting a lot from it and was really excited to try it. I think the slice of spam needs to be thicker, it almost tasted like a slice of ham instead, it didn't have the distinct spam taste. The seaweed was a little overpowering as well. The croissant texture was really good though. The pandan milk bread was ok, probably wouldn't get it again. I was in Alameda so I decided to stop by Bake Sum to grab some pastries so I was in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. If I was in the area, I'd definitely go back to try another cruffin flavor. The store is really cute though, there's a bunch of asian theme trinkets you can buy. read more

I was SO excited to try Bake Sum because of all of the unique Asian-inspired offerings they had! I think the items that I got just didn't meet the mark however. We came in on a Saturday morning and there was a good amount of street parking in the area. They had pretty much all of their offerings available though. We were able to try their pandan and jasmine tea milk bun, all of their cookies, okonomiyaki bun (?), and yuzu meringue bun. I looove cookies that are soft and chewy and I think this is where my initial disappointment came out, since the cookies were all hard. I think the only standout item that we had was the yuzu meringue bun, since the flavors were very unique. The only thing was that it was a little difficult to eat without getting everywhere lol. We tried the pandan and jasmine tea milk buns once we got home, and the flavors just didn't impress me very much either. I really wanted to love this place but I could've come in on an off-day. I did love how they also sold other items from local businesses in the area though! read more

I have never been to the store but I've had Bake Sum over 6x at this rate... My all time favorite is the Okonomiyaki Danish~ If you're ever going to order something here, you HAVE to get this. My friends all know I love this... and always brought it to me!!!! Recently, my friend even drove all the way from SFO after work, placed payment over the phone, went ALL the way to pick it up, and drove back down to Hayward to drop it off for me on my birthday. The next day, another friend got me a total of 5 Okonomiyaki danishes... I literally had 6 of them for my birthday and right before I moved to SoCal. I will miss this place so much even though I don't even know what the store looks like in person. read more

Will definitely want to come back to try these and other baked goods! read more

I had heard such good things about this bakery, but the truth is that I don't ever find myself in Oakland in the morning. However, here I was walking on Grand Avenue on Friday around noon. The door was open, and the sandwich sign was out. There was already a steely woman with two boxes of baked goods. I was just hoping she left something for the rest of us. I quite like the idea of a female-run bakery that serves goodies with a dim sum twist. There are no cafe tables in here, so I decided to get three things to go. The first was the $5.25 Lilikoi Milk Bun sprinkled with black sesame seeds and shaped like a concha (photo: https://yelp.to/Z05tT9fmFP). The passionfruit provided a nice tropical zing. The second was the $2 Thai Tea Mochi Bite (photo: https://yelp.to/TZ_f96CKSI). It was definitely a bite much like a mochi mini-muffin. Quite good but you probably need a half-dozen to be happily satisfied. I have to say the most satisfying item was the $4.50 Ube Cookie still soft and warm from the oven (photo: https://yelp.to/vnCitixzu9). I think it was really a combo ube-coconut cookie which frankly made it even better. There are other delectables to try next time like croissants and an okonomiyaki danish. Music to my palate. FOOD - 5 stars...nicely crafted and quite delicious dim sum-style baked goodies AMBIANCE - 4 stars...nice space, no tables SERVICE - 4 stars...polite, a bit minimal due to waiting customers TOTAL - 5 stars...unique enough to seek out, for sure RELATED - Exploring Oakland?

The name sounded familiar as I started window shopping when my friend mentioned ordering some foods from Neon. I was surprised to find my review from five months ago in writing this update. The featured item on Neon's posted menu was the crossubi (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=cvI_ShCenY3TL8lbp02c4A); here is their description on their website: Our take on the popular Hawaiian street snack - the Spam Musubi. Slices of spam marinated with umami sauce, togarashi, and finished with crispy parmesan cheese. It was an interesting mix with the buttery, flaky pastry with this filling (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=dzxOMpIFitAsizpm0T5POA), Spam and a sheet of nori. The parmesan flavor was light and, given the size of the filling ingredients, it wasn't overwhelming. Thank you, Bake Sum, for this 'crossover' pastry before I head to Oahu. I look forward to studying your offerings on Neon when I return. read more

A friend told me about this place. Something about a croissant wrapped musubi? I'm in. I preordered to be picked up like 4 days later because that's the way they do it. Picked up at my designated time, was handed my ordered. Easy. The shop was quiet, pretty cute. Has a lot of little nick knacks. I'd probably look around more if I didn't need to get back to work. Honestly. The musubi was okay. But the croissant Around it A+. I had also ordered a chocolate banana croissant. I don't even like chocolate that much. But omg.

I love that they create Asian inspired pastries. I think it's so unique and very uncommon to play around with the different Asian flavors that exist. I've been to Bake Sum a few times whenever I'm visiting from LA and there's really not too many bakeries in SoCal that experiment the way Bake Sum does. Before leaving the Bay, I made sure to get my pastries for the road trip back. I ordered the sesame green onion bun, the spam croissant and a yuzu mint pastry that they made that day. Everything is so flavorful - crispy on the outside but buttery and soft on the inside. If you go in the morning right when they open, expect to have a tiny line but it goes by pretty quick. Everything is baked fresh and never disappoints! read more

Loved the concept of pastries with Asian flavors so made the trek here. The place gives the impression of a coffee shop when walking in rather than a bakery. There were only a few of each pastry under the display cases. I got a couple of different pastries but most weren't too memorable. I felt the flavors were too strong and quite sweet. We had the lilikoi and jasmine mochi cake bites, ube coconut cookie, strawberry and cream croissant, and okonomiyaki pastry. They were on the pricey side as well. read more

Bake sum is one of my top favorites. I first tried them when my friend dropped off a box when I had just given birth. Usually I don't have an appetite but whatever it was I ate. I LOVED everything. So forever, I would dream about coming back. We don't usually go to Oakland so that was hard. Well we finally came back and it did not disappoint! I love savory pastries, so the okonomiyaki and spam one was yummmy. I surprisingly also loved their milk tea...and pandan pastries too.

Overrated and overpriced. Pastries are fine but nowhere close to worth the price. Operations behind the counter are not very efficient leading to a big backup inside the store. Fine to try once but wouldn't come back. read more

I love this bakery so much. Try as I might, I can't help but make a stop here to try some of their delicious creations if I'm in this part of town. I call it "French/Asian fusion", although I'm not sure they identify that way. The reason is because they have the French baking techniques down. For instance, their croissants are just as good as what I've had in Paris. Last month they had a pumpkin spice pastry that was layered flaky, croissant pastry shaped like a muffin and filled with delicious pumpkin cream. I really like tropical fruit in pastry, but it's not usually as exciting nor as mouth-watering as what they offer at Bake Sum. They use exotics like lilikoi (passion fruit) and ube, as well as Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee in some of their pastries, creating such delicate succulence that it's hard not to be smitten. They offer new seasonal flavors and special pastries throughout the year, which makes it even more fun to go see what they are up to. Their shop is very cute and they offer all kinds of goodies as well as pastry. It's woman owned and from personal experience, I will tell you that everyone working there seems to be enthusiastic and inspired by what they are doing, as well as offering very good service. It's mostly takeout, but there are a few tables and chairs out front on the street on Grand. They are almost always busy and bustling. If you have to wait a bit, it's totally worth it. read more
