    the label of the cookie
    Carol C.

    I found Cici's Italian Butterhorns at Rocky's Market Brooklyn Basin. I had purchased the vanilla sprinkled cookies about three months ago. Because being diabetic, I could only eat them in moderation. The cookies were delicious, especially with coffee. They added a little sweetness to the coffee. Yesterday, I was at Rocky's Market and noticed the chocolate butterhorns. I checked the nutrition facts on the back of the package. Five grams of sugar for one butterhorn. Okay, that's what I am talking about! I bought them. I had one with my morning tea. Ooh, I like these better than the vanilla sprinkled cookies. I love ginger molasses cookies, too. I will return to Rocky's Market to purchase a few packs for Christmas gifts for family. I haven't seen the lemon cookies yet, but I am eager to taste them.

    a variety of cookies

    So excited that Zanotto's Family Market in San Jose has a whole section with CiCi's Italian cookies! We picked up the two kinds of butterhorn cookies since we haven't tried those yet, and the Spring-themed vanilla sprinkle cookies. We got a package of the lemon glazed ones last week from Molinari's and they were divine! Can't get enough!!!

    3 bags of chocolate Butterhorns, 2 bags of chocolate orange walnut biscotti, & a bag of the lemon cookies!!!

I think it might've been a bit undercooked... I don't think I would try another one unfortunately. I think I would also stick with the sweet bakery items moving forward. I also ordered a lychee strawberry matcha milk tea (with the oat milk option) and I was pretty happy with that purchase. Overall, I wouldn't dock them more than a star for the underwhelming pastry because most of the others are excellent. It might just be that savory isn't their thing...

We decided to order 6 different pastries. We first tried their Seasonal Strawberry Almond Frangipane, Seasonal Strawberry Kouign Amann, Cardamon Pistachio Kouign Amann, Chocolate Pistachio Kouign Amann, Chocolate Babka, and Twice Baked Mocha Pecan Croissant. I liked all of their Kouign Amanns a lot, especially the strawberry one which added a nice fruit element! Their kouign amanns have very crispy layers and very flaky. I'd honestly recommend all 6 of the pastries we tried, especially since the prices for this place are lower (~$6) than some other high quality bakeries around the Oakland and SF area. The decor inside the bakery is really cute and there are quite a few small tables you can sit at to enjoy the baked goods. Service was nice and fast. Overall: solid pastry spot I'd recommend anyone to check out!

    Visit date: 4/19/2026…read more We came about an hour before closing on a Sunday, so unfortunately many of the items I wanted to try based on other people's recommendations were already sold out. We ended up getting three things: * The cheese twist was soooo good! The cheese was flavorful and the pastry itself was perfectly done. * The apple pastry was interesting. Unlike many places where the pastry is either bland or overly sweet, Acme's pastry had a slight saltiness to it, which I actually think is genius. I almost always prefer a hint of savory flavor to balance out the sweetness from the filling or topping. My only issue with this one was that the apple topping was not sweet at all and leaned more tart, so paired with the salty pastry, it was not quite the flavor combination I was hoping for. * The mini raspberry pastry had the same issue for me. The raspberry topping was just a bit too tart and sour for my taste. Even though not everything was a hit for me, I would definitely come back and give this bakery another chance, especially since we arrived so late and missed out on many of their most popular items.

Not really a great place to sit and eat -- there are two tiny tables…read moreoutside that are usually taken, none inside, and no other benches or tables nearby -- but an excellent place to buy pastries to take home. The good: Their cookies have the perfect texture and the cocobae is superb. The milk buns are pillowy and filled with delicious cream plus crunchy craquelin. Their swirly sweet laminated bun that changes flavor every month is a delight and the bottom is deliciously caramelized. The merengue tarts are perfection. Pound cakes have great flavor altho the texture is not traditional and doesn't hit me right. Can't miss with a mochi bite tho. The bad: The savory treats have been underwhelming (tried 4 different ones iirc). Drinks include matcha from Asha tea house (very nice choice) but are very overpriced (like $7 for matcha? what?) so I skip them. Sweet treats still so excellent and unique that this spot gets 5 stars.
