    I saw this bakery, go a little bit viral on Instagram and was visiting family in the area so I decided to give it a try and support a small business and let me tell you I was not disappointed. They had so many things to choose from it took me a moment to decide, but I ended up getting their crinkle cookies Which seemed to be popular because a lady came in after and ordered the rest of the ones that they had on the display. I also ended up ordering an Ube cheesecake and a Tres leches cake slices and everything was so delicious but by far my favorite was the Ube cheesecake. It was so unique and delicious 10 out of 10 would recommend can't wait to go back and try some of their other creations.

    Fun seating area

    Found this place on Instagram, so we drove down from Pasadena...and it was well worth the drive. The store is super cute inside with a fun seating area. I wished we had arrived earlier to be able to enjoy more of the sold out offerings, but next time we'll arrive right when they open. We ordered a dozen crinkle cookies for a Mother's Day lunch - enjoying the sweet ube and the spiced thai tea versions. Both were great compliments to each other - more perfectly sweet and the other a bit more herbal. The chocolate chip cookie was perfect - nice crunchy edges and slightly gooey soft inside. The ube tres leches was a little disappointing as there wasn't any tres leches cake at the bottom, just crumbly graham crackers resting below exquisite ube mousse. It could have been mislabeled, but it was essentially just ube mousse with crumbly graham crackers for texture. The staff were friendly and the store is so fun!

    We visited Butter Lab for the first time on 05/10/2026 in the late morning hours. The person helping us out at the counter, on this somewhat busy morning, kept the flow running nice and smooth (and he was friendly) So, we tried a few things during this visit. Two items for immediate consumption and then some cookies for later. We purchased a dozen of the regular size cookies, including both Ube and Thai Tea. Both of them were excellent, and I felt they were priced appropriately at a dozen for $18. The Thai Tea seriously tasted like you were truly drinking a thai tea. We also shared one large classic chocolate chip cookies (so yummy!) The only thing we didn't understand is that we shared a Ube Tres Leches. I am not sure what was going on. Don't get me wrong, what we ate was very good; however, it was 100% not Tres Leches. It was an Ube Cream with some graham cracker crumble underneath. So, my assumption is that they must have just given us the wrong item. I would love to try the Tres Leches again in the future. Please support his lovely local business. It was a real treat!

    Devouring the oatmeal, cream cheese filled cookie sandwich
    Carlitos W.

    This is my happy place. I love coming here after work and unwinding with my favorite drink the lady black. I love the fun vibes and the staff. Everything is made from scratch my favorites are the molasses cookie, the oatmeal sandwich, cookie, and the Thai tea crinkle cookie. don't sleep on their pies, the chicken pot is my fave. A favorite at my house is the banana cream pie pudding. don't sleep on the coffee cake, I took it to work and not a crumb was left.

    The food looks great and the staff are f friendly. The issues are with the food and drinks... I ordered a Strawberry Matche Latte and got my father a brown sugar latte. My Matcha was not even bloomed. It had huge clumps of matcha in it. There was virtually no sugar, any flavor had was in the strawberry, which tasted like nesquik starberry milk. My father said his coffee had no sugar in it. The first thing we had was the banana pudding, at it in shop while they made the drink. Insanely fresh but again, all the flavor came from the actual bananas, not the custard. It was almost as bland as baby food, which sucks cause the banana pudding looked amazing and it was the perfect texture. The crumb topping was amazing. The crinkle cookies are perfect and if I go back, it's for those alone. The ube tries leches? Creamy but again, hardly any sugar. This one might be ok as itll come down to preference on it. They've cheese cake? A Basque cheesecake? A lot less impressive, flavor falls flat but I've never really had a decent one to compare it to. The ube blondies? Amazing. I wanted more until I ate the second one... I'm not sure if its floss or hair but it was disgusting. I honestly wanted to be nice about the review and wanted to keep it quiet but their phone number on yelp, google and ever their website for taking catering ( 323 487 2558 ) does not actually connect. Says out of service ). Attached a photo as proof I called once from google. Second time was when i called from their catering page. I was hoping they cared cause the staff said let us know how it is, were always open for feedback or suggestions. If you like low sugar foods, then great. I'm diabetic so I shouldnt be eating a lot of sugar but I'm an ube or matcha fanatic and I want good food for that fix when I break my diet.

    Basque Cheesecake, Banana Pudding, Bread pudding and apricot cookies
    Marcela O.

    Okay this place is dangerously good! I popped in after work the other day and on my way home to pick up something for my sweet tooth. I walked out with apricot linzer cookies, banana pudding, bread pudding, and the basque cheesecake. Heaven. All of it. I had previously tried the tiramisu and the bread pudding as well as the tres leches, and can say that every dessert item has been exceptionally good. Nothing is overly sweet and portions are good enough to share or devour alone like I did. Will continue to pop in to try more goodies and satisfy my sweet tooth!

    Chocolate Chip Cookies
    Christina P.

    I was craving something sweet and figured since I live in Montebello, why not try a local bakery I haven't been to yet...The Yelp reviews were great, so I had to check it out for myself. I'm a big chocolate lover and originally came in for a chocolate brownie, but they were unfortunately out. They did have an ube brownie, and it seems like a lot of their desserts feature ube. I also noticed that they use organic and natural ingredients, which I really appreciated. The owner was incredibly kind and even let me sample the ube brownie. For me personally, it was a bit too sweet, but that really just comes down to preference. The chocolate chip cookies had just come out of the oven, so they were super fresh, maybe a little softer and more textured than I typically like, just a bit too raw for me, but still a good cookie overall. I'll admit, I can be a little picky when it comes to desserts. The standout for me was the café de olla latte, absolutely delicious because she made it with care, definitely something I would come back for. While the desserts didn't quite hit the mark for my taste, I still think this spot is worth trying. The owner is genuinely sweet, and the space itself is adorable, very warm, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated with a dessert-inspired theme. Overall, it just might be one of those places that others will love more than I did, but I'm glad I gave it a try...

    Ube crinkle cookies
    Claribel V.

    I had been craving ube crinkle cookies and was searching Yelp for a bakery that sells them when I stumbled upon Butter Lab. Since it was Super Bowl Sunday, I called first to make sure they were open. It took about seven calls before someone finally picked up. I placed a phone order for six mini ube crinkle cookies, one large ube crinkle cookie, and a bag of ube blondie edges. When I arrived, there was only one person working, who looked like the baker and possibly the owner, so I understood why it took a while to answer the phone. Although I had reserved one large ube crinkle cookie, it wasn't included in my order, which ended up being fine because the mini cookies were a good size and felt like a better value at $1.50 each compared to $3.00 for the large one. The crinkle cookies and blondie edges were good. I wish the cookies were a bit more chewy rather than cake-like and less sweet, but they were still delicious and reasonably priced. The blondie edges were a great deal at $3 per bag, especially if you enjoy the edge pieces of brownies. I would return here for the brownie edges.

    This review is longggg overdue! Annie is absolutely incredible. One of the kindest people I have ever met. She made the cake process so easy for us and worked with our budget. Forever grateful for you guys! Also.. the cake was delicious and SO pretty!

    Earn D.

    Came across this little gem today and I cannot stress how good these delights are. First the selections are right up my alley for cookies we had Vietnamese coffee, matcha, strawberry, chocolate brownie, pandan and oatmeal cranberry. We also had the ube brownie and ube cheesecake, with a cold brew. Turned around and grabbed a coffee cake along with everything else. Coffee cake was okay kind of underwhelming. Everything besides that was so good! Authentic look and flavors. Madds was super friendly and helpful in explaining all the flavors. Honestly hands down best cookies I've tasted.

    From outta town and google map'd for bakeries / sweet treats while in the area. I like ube tres leches, carrot cake cupcake and the Thai tea crinkle. Apricot jam cookie was good too. The corn and saffron crinkle had good flavor too but the sweetness level was quite high for me but I know friends that have that high of a sweet tooth that would love it. Would come back again to try again, thanks!

    Skzoo tres leches cake
    Wendy C.

    I've been coming to this bakery for a bit now. My kids love the tres leches cakes. So much so that my daughter wanter her birthday cake to be tres leches from butter lab. The owner is so sweet and the rest of the staff is always so nice. I have yet to try any of the drinks but i will definitely be ordering something soon.

    Driving along Beverly Blvd, I was craving cookies Lo and behold I found one Cute small business owned cookie shop While I haven't tried the chocolate chip Cookie, I did try the crinkles-definitely Asian inspired flavors like Pandan, durian, green tea...I would have liked to tried the Ube but they were all out I'll try to come back again!

    The cookies are delicious. But the place needs some TLC. Not sure why they'd have icing on the glass. Seems unsanitary.

I am so glad I did! Not only was the design exactly what I wanted, the taste was phenomenal and even tastier than my previous bakery. I got so many compliments on the cake (taste) and they use fresh fruit instead of preserves which I appreciate. We ordered the lemon cake with lemon & cream cheese lemon curd and fresh raspberries. Delish! For my daughter's smash cake we did white velvet cake with cream cheese and strawberries. Unfortunately, my daughter did not eat her smash cake with two attempts, but fortunately that left more cake for me & my family . By the way, I priced several bakeries and home bakers, and Blue Cake House along with the others were all roughly the same price. Some were more expensive by $40 and some were less by $20, so I would say their pricing is competitive. I paid $40 for a smash cake, where as Amy's Pastry charges $16 but they add fees for every little thing such as fruit, colored frosting, etc. Plus, they are limited on cake flavors & fillings. Blue Cake House is a small business and I like to support smaller businesses. Their cakes taste amazing and will not disappoint. I will definitely be using Blue Cake House for my future orders!
