i was looking around yelp for a while looking for flan to get my significant other for his birthday (it's his favorite) and it was kind of difficult finding a place who sold a whole flan! but luckily when i stopped by after work, they had a whole flan in stock! it was in the fridge along with other desserts such as churro cheesecake, chocolate flan, and more treats! I wish i took a picture of the fridge! it was 36 dollars for the whole flan and i didn't expect them to decorate it but it came out so cute and im happy with how it turned out! My s/o and i enjoyed it and i love supporting small local businesses as well! read more

Dane's Bakery - flan - Bakeries Near Me - Sacramento, California

My family and I had dinner next door from Dane's Bakery last night and when we walked out, we were instantly hit in the nose holes with the sweet smell of Pan Dulce. Next thing you know...we're walking into Dane's where the smell just got stronger and more delightful. It's the epitome of a mom and pop shop - being in business for 20+ years and has only been owned and run by their family. They crank out Pan Dulce like no one's business - they had a case full as well as racks that had just came out of the oven. They also had refrigerators full of Flan, Gelatinas, Churro Cheesecake and even massive fruit cups. We bought a bag full of Pan Dulce and a Gelatina de Mosaico that my daughter and I shared on the drive home - it was the perfect light dessert to end our evening. Overall, the Pan Dulce was pretty good and the service was even better. The guy working the front was very friendly and personable. We will be back next time we're in the area - that Churro Cheesecake is calling my name! Check them out! read more

If you're looking for fresh pastries that value quality over quantity this is the place. So many choices that each visit a new item is discovered. This visit I had planned on getting a pineapple empanada but when I asked what kind they had they also had apple. Tip, always ask what they have on the racks or ask if they have what specific item you are looking for. Since they are constantly baking fresh item, they might have it ready but cooling on the racks. Then they mentioned there are 2 different type of Apple empanadas. 1 has the traditional crust and the other has a flakey crust. So I did what any empanada loving person would do and got one of each. Then as I was walking out they had the prettiest little Individual size clear Jello fruit cake. So quickly turned around and bought one. read more

It's really hit or miss when you get pan dulce- a.k.a. Mexican sweet bread- the bread is either soft and has good flavor, or it's hard and dry. The bread I got here was soft and delicious! Not only do they sell bread, but they have different Jell-O flavors like coconut, pistachio, nuez (nuts). We bought the rompope flavor (eggnog) since it's that time of year! They also sell cakes which were decorated beautifully! The man at the counter was super friendly and had great customer service. The front where the customers stand is small, but the kitchen area in the back is quite large. And nothing beats the smell of a panaderia!! I'll definitely be back! read more

I found this little gem by chance when a family member was craving something sweet, and we thought, why not some pan dulce? Our first stop was La Esperanza, but as usual, it was packed. On the way home, I happened to spot this place and was immediately drawn in by the smell of fresh baked goods right from the parking lot. As soon as I walked in, I was warmly greeted and helped right away. The shop is small, but the selection is excellent, and the pan dulce was absolutely delicious. I'm not sure how long this spot has been around, but they've definitely earned me as a new regular. A great find for anyone with a sweet tooth! read more

We had the pleasure of visiting this local Mexican bakery. Everything that is made here is 100% handmade authentic Mexican pastries. They have been in the Sacramento area for 22 years. It is family owned not only do they sell pastries. They also sell beautifully crafted birthday and wedding cakes. I met the owner and her son. Their customer service was not only excellent, but made me feel so welcomed. We tried multiple pastries and everything we tried. You can feel the love and authenticity of each item. I would definitely recommend and I can't wait to go back and try even more. read more

Best Spanish bakery I've ever tried! The lady that helped us was so sweet and made us feel welcomed. She answered our questions with a smile and told us we could always call ahead to reserve our order. We got their rolls, concha, arroz con leche, and pie de elote. Everything was so good and better than other places that taste really dry. Can't wait to come back to try the tamales and tres leche cake! read more

First time guest at Danes Bakery, but heard such good things about this panderia. Easter was coming up and I had to bring something to the carne asada!! The customer service was unbelievably friendly. The sweet baker spoke with me to discuss what I was looking for and I showed them a picture from their own Yelp. Definitely coming back for Mothers Day. Thank you again for your amazing customer service and friendliness. I couldnt have asked for a better experience as a first time guest :))) !!!!! read more

It's a very tiny mom and pop shop, in a very small shopping strip, with horrible parking. I had always seen this bakery and decided to give it a try. I picked up some pan dulce, conchas, mantecadas, y galletas, along with a chocoflan. Everything was dry. It looked good, but very lacking. I wanted to like it, but couldn't get past the dryness on both the bread and chocoflan. I don't think I'll be back. read more

Beautiful pastries and super friendly service. I'll definitely be back. Reasonable prices and hopefully they will be here for years to come!

If you want to be robbed, come here. If I could I'd give 0 stars. My brother in law picked up a Churro cheesecake I ordered and when I saw it, I was so upset. I couldn't even gift it. I was so embarrassed. The churro cheesecake was burnt, and dry. To top it off, the writing looked like my 3 year old did it. When I ordered I was told it would have lechera and Nutella drizzle... if you think that's chocolate, that's not what it is. That's burnt! I called and spoke to a lady, and she told me that I could not be refunded. She said that since the cake left the bakery there was nothing she could do. She said I could bring it back for half the refund and she would throw it away. read more

The conchas are great. They're light and fluffy and mildly sweet. I might even say they're better than La Esperanza's.

Very small, mom & pop, non-descript place for Mexican pastries. I usually make my way here in the mornings right after they open, and while they do not have a large variety of pastries and sweets, they certainly have all of my favorites; the little pigs, vanilla custard empanada, pineapple empanada, raspberry jelly roll, vanilla cream roll, conchas, galletas de grageas (sugar cookies with the multicolored sprinkles), polvorones rosas (pink sugar cookies), flan, gelatina de mosaico (colorful squares of Jell-O that are layered in a creamy and milky jello). La Esperanza certainly has a ginormous collection of baked goods compared to Dane's however Dane's consistently has all of their baked goods ready and available for purchase shortly after 8 AM. La Esperanza opens at 7 AM but they rarely have their full variety of items ready to purchase early in the morning and if you go later in the morning (to La Esperanza) and even around lunchtime, it's a zoo and lines are out the door and they move extremely slow; hence, Dane's is my little bakery of choice. Unfortunately, Dane's is not open on Sunday. In terms of the customer service: the ladies at the counter aren't very friendly, however, they are not overtly rude. They just don't smile and don't say much so I can deal with that. This is why I gave them four stars versus five stars. read more

I called last week to place an order and the person on the phone said she will take my order, but she didn't have the price. This time of the year they are always busy, place your orders ahead. I buy my Rosca de Reyes every year from here. I was a La Esperanza customer, but lost quality over time. Dane's has not dissapointeted me over time. Their conchas have canela on them , so yummy. All pastries are delicious. read more

Dane's Bakery - Yum! - Bakeries Near Me - Sacramento, California

Very good pan dulce!! I tried the cortadillo pink cake, and it is very moist and perfectly sweet. The other things I tried were also very yummy. Their flan is mild yet sweet just like how I like my custard. The woman who helped me at the counter was very sweet, she speaks more spanish than english but even though I dont speak spanish she still answered all my questions. This reminds me of home, very simple yet traditional mexican atmosphere. Im coming back!! read more

I have gone here a few times to get some pastries, and I haven't been disappointed. The conchas are soft and delicious, the flan is firm and tasty and it smells like my childhood. I feel like the woman has always been friendly to me, but if you're like these other commenters and you're looking for someone to hug you, and treat you like royalty, well that's a ridiculous expectation and perhaps this isn't the establishment for you. Its a panederia, and they make delicious pastries. You take them home, get in your comfiest clothes, and you dip them in your coffee or hot chocolate and put on some cartoons or something equally enjoyable. Conchas are an experience not a quick bite, and here they are that high quality read more

The bread we got here was great. We tried a good handful and our expectations were exceeded.

Anyone who shops regularly on the Sac Mexican economy already knows--some store owners are jerks but you put up with it to get the good stuff, and sometimes the good stuff is mixed in with the bad stuff, but just buy the good stuff. Go ahead, try to think of a Mexican owned, Mexican serving business that isn't like this. (I'm not even gonna bother waiting--you can't.) We come here to get exactly what we know is good when it's good--conchas and lemon muffins on Tuesdays-Saturdays. And because they're hella good and cheap, yes, we put up with the attitude of the owner, cuz, you know what? We keep coming back, and she knows it. (Y'all wanna laugh at the Soup Nazi, but complain for something a fraction of the price?) If you come for what you come for you're gonna get what you're gonna get. If you show up with no education as to what's what you're gonna get exactly what you deserve. (I swear, this should be the motto of shopping in Mexican stores in Sac.) Do they serve coffee or chocolate? No. It's a panaderia. Not Krispy Kreme. Do they give you a box instead of an overpacked paper bag? No. But you know what? It's free. Does the lady smile? EVER? NO. (And if she does you better document that crap and post it to Yelp, cuz, if that ain't like a Bigfoot sighting...) If you come with your hella gringo expectations then you should expect.... No, you know what? Not even gonna finish. If that is you, please take yourself somewhere else, 'cuz the rest of us aren't trying to have your lame, uppity-snob reviews make mom and pop shops look bad. Keep eating your donuts, and when you're ready to come back come back--but don't cry when all the conchas blancas are gone, cuz it's a Saturday and all of the rest of us who know already bought her out to last us through her days off. How cool is your wanna-be-hipster self gonna look when you've got no pan dulce? More importantly, how much you gonna miss it. Get over yourself, then come back and bring your cash. Everyone else, buy a concha, Tuesday-Saturday (unless they look a little dark, then don't, and get a muffin). Holy crap. So good. read more

First time trying this place. The pastries are pretty good. I'm reviewing more about the lady's attitude. We walk in and we were the only people there. There's was no greeting or a smile, nothing. She just stands there without offering any help with the pastries like what's in them etc. If she is the owner it's such bad business to have a Shitty attitude like that. Now even though we liked the pastries we would never go back because of her attitude. She doesn't seem to understand that the customers keep her in business. So now she lost a new potential customer and I'd Never recommend this place to anyone because of her attitude!! read more

Forget about ordering ahead for the Rosca de Reyes I ordered mine Monday and I called today to make sure they still didn't have my rosca ready I had to wait an hour in the long line and al the special requests I made none really bad costumer service . Not buying there anymore read more

What happens in each of these situations: walking into a bar, taking the MCAT or any of many standardized tests, buying beers at gas stations, and buying student rate museum tickets? They always ask for an ID. And I don't think my pastries should be exempt this. Who do they think they are? Only rappers can walk into a club with no ID, not a churro. Speaking of churros, as I mentioned in my tip there have been no churros after numerous visits. Upon entering Dane's bakery, you won't see any identifying information of anything, whether it be price or what it even is. You are left with two options 1) feel super annoying and go along both pastry cases asking what every single thing is or 2) gesticulate randomly and end up with a mystery selection at a mystery price. I shamelessly took the first route, only to discover that the lady's responses were vague and terse enough that I should have just pointed randomly. That said, the mystery price after selecting my pastries was rock bottom cheap. Like seriously, perhaps one of the lowest priced bakeries I've ever encountered. The pastries themselves were just alright. My favorite is the gingerbread pig, but even then it wasn't particularly amazing. Everything I've gotten has been distinctly dry. I wouldn't be surprised if it's just a difference in preference though. Also, it's a little annoying that they only have enormous ~25 piece boxes or 2-3 piece paper bags. If you want to find something more exciting than bringing a dozen donuts to that next meeting, your options are either bringing two dozen, or bringing an unwieldy mass of paper bags for your friends/frenemies/coworkers/whoever to awkwardly split and get their fingers all over while looking through each narrow paper bag. Overall, Dane's bakery has quite the range of decent baked goods in a slightly run down and difficult to comprehend store, but it's a reasonable bet for your sugar fix. read more

A mexican bakery. Pasteleria. Part of a strip mall on the corner of Broadway and 65th. I walked in and nothing was labeled. I didn't know what anything was, really. So, for an outsider-- it's a little difficult. I would ask about particular items and the lady there was nice and she answered. What's that shaped like a pig? Gingerbread. Really? You see, to an outsider, someone who doesn't know shit about this.. It's a little odd. A pig gingerbread. But it's a Puerquito. I looked it up. It's a known thing. I was curious about everything but, I felt like a problem person asking about this and that so I limited myself. I chose a couple things. It's not a place to have a drink or eat.. Just a pick and go so, I did. And, it was good stuff on top of a little learning experience. read more

Finding Dane's was the best discovery I've made in a long time. A friend turned me on to this place; the only thing that's difficult is knowing when to stop trying new things. I bought 6 of the orange muffins for the family, they are not too sweet, yummy as hell. My personal favorites are the concha: a big slightly sweet dough bun with a flaky chocolate topping baked on, and the puff pastry horn filed with bavarian cream. If you are a fan at all of Mexican pastries, this place will have you coming back every day. Nom nom nom. read more
