    This is one of the only places in Houston, that I know of, that sells Rum Caneles! Rum caneles are a rare commodity nowadays. Caneles are a traditional French pastry. This shop also offers so much more from macarons, cupcakes, fruit tarts, coffee and matcha! Such a pretty pink floral decor inside, clean, and very pretty. Great service and great sweets, love this place.

    Several of the larger chains are very good, but I think it is most important to support local small independent bakeries. The desserts here are as good as a gets and if you don't believe me, just try their strawberry tiramisu sometime. Highly highly recommend recommended.

    I discovered this spot on TikTok! I wanted to try the matcha tiramisu, but they sold out by the time I got there. Instead, I tried the ube tiramisu, which was light and airy and not too sweet. It was very enjoyable! The matcha choux was my favorite. The oolong tea tasted like a typical milk tea. My friend's fruit tea was very refreshing. The inside is a bit small with a few seating options. The workers were friendly.

    Desseire French Bakery has been on my bookmarks since Cov!d. Every time I wanted to stop by, there was always something going on. Like it was closed, it used to have a very odd operating hour. I think it was partially due to the pandemic. I was glad that Linda's Tropical Fruits took over the ownership of this restaurant recently. I am so happy that it operates with a normal schedule. I came here a few times to check out what pastry I could buy to surprise my friends during the holidays. I think I am hooked on the Choux, a cream filled puff pastry. They come in variety of flavors. I don't have a favorite one yet. I am still trying them all. Cupcakes were cute and I can place a greeting on the icing. Very cute. I think it's better than the Nothing Bundt Cakes bakeries. Because the cakes were lighter and cream was smoother. There are plenty of parking at this strip mall. But very limited seats inside. It's more like a takeout restaurant.

    the matcha was insanely sweet. when i sipped some off the top, it actually had a great earthiness, but the strawberry syrup dominated everything in this drink. the banh choux was SO GOOD. it was crispy, light and the filling wasn't too sweet. it was definitely rich and creamy but great ube flavor. mango tiramisu was also delicious, creamy yet bright

    Beautiful yummy desserts! We came in for the cream puffs! Service with a smile as usual. Has tables to enjoy the desserts as well.

    Nut allergy warning: Although several Croux and cupcakes have pistachios, I was fine ordering some pastries that were at least not next to those. For severe allergies I'd order ahead or stay far away from those. We stopped by in the afternoon after lunch with five people. There are a few small tables to sit and enjoy your pastries, but many more people took them to go. We had the Ube Cupcake (5/5), the Durian Croux (4.5/5), and the Matcha Croux (4/5) and each had 1-2 bites for five people. The Ube Cupcake was the star here, but everything was delicious and not too sweet. I prefer a stronger matcha flavor, but it still came through there. They have some delicious looking cakes and other offerings, as well as coffee. I'll definitely be back!

    Last time I checked, French bakeries / dessert shops weren't in abundance in Chinatown, which puts Desseire in a very unique position. They describe themselves as a "French bakery with an Asian touch" which has only made me curious about all the things they offer. Spoiler alert: it's all awesome. Their shop is somewhat hidden in the corner of a strip mall, but it's clean and fairly modern despite being small with limited seating. I'm not sure if they bake their pastries on site, but it smells really nice in here. It feels more like a dessert shop than a bakery, as they always have a number of pretty pastries on display. They have a whole assortment of cakes but the ones I'm impressed with are the custom designs they have for people. The cakes don't look particularly large, but it's clear they were carefully handcrafted and look photo ready. I have seen some of their macarons, cupcakes, and chouxs, the latter of which has a killer pandan cream filling and their black sesame flavor gets a big thumbs up. Also bonus points for having ube, durian, and pink guava as flavor options. Another thing they're good at is creating display tables for events. I've come across some of their work in the past with a table full of cheeses, fruits, and assorted pastries. It's the perfect party addition and the overall setup is very impressive. Lastly, they people who run the shop are are lovely. Their passion for their pastries is evident and their following is only growing by the day. The endless variety of indulgences are always a reason to keep coming back for more.

    This bakery is such a gem in Houston. If it weren't for my friend who recommended this place I wouldn't have known about it. It is located in such an unassuming plaza among with other restaurants and businesses. The amount of times I come to this plaza to get sugar cane juice is too many to count but I have never noticed the bakery until my friend brought me here. The outside is very ordinary, but the inside is filled with beautiful pastries and alluring aromas. They have an assortment of desserts including choux, macarons, panna cotta, tiramisu, and cupcakes. I'm very impressed with the asian flavors such as ube, pandan, durian, and lychee. The choux and panna cottas are my favorite. The flavors are subtle and not too sweet yet uniquely pleasant and delicious. They even have the cutest teddy bear choux. Even the pricing for the cakes are very reasonable. The cakes are custom made and although not that big, pack a bunch of flavor and are beautifully crafted. I ordered a birthday cake from here once and the ordering process and communication was smooth. The bakery was accommodating and was able to create a design that resembled the one I wanted. The cake was a hit at the party and everyone loved the design. The flavors (strawberry cake with lychee frosting) were on point, but the only issue was that the frosting was overly sweet. This was definitely surprising because their pastries aren't super sweet so maybe it was just the batch of frosting. Overall, I love coming back to try more desserts and flavors. However, I would ask for a lighter frosting if I ordered a cake again.

    Cute little sweets store selling cupcakes, choux pastry, macaroons, and cakes. I wish I had arrived earlier because I felt so much FOMO seeing the sold out desserts in the flavors I would've wanted. I've been searching for a bakery that specializes in Asian flavors and this totally fit the brief. Some of the flavors such as soursop were completely unknown to me, so I asked the employee and she told me she had no idea but it was popular. This was the same response I got when I asked her preference between two other flavors. I also asked her if the flavors were constant or rotating, and she said they should be posted on the Instagram weekly - this is untrue. I think the employee(s) or at least this one in particular is doing Desseire a huge disservice especially since many of the flavors are uncommon and most customers would appreciate some background or even simple guidance to rounding out their dessert selections.

    Matcha Cake / Pandan Cake
    Bryan V.

    I had the pleasure of trying their desserts as my friend brought them to our Thanksgiving celebration. Not only are they visually appealing, but they taste delicious as well. My favorite was the matcha cake in the shape of a roll. It had a strong matcha flavor which I am picky about and it wasn't too sweet either which I appreciate. The matcha jelly filling it had in the middle was the best. The pandan coconut cake was light, fluffy, and didn't taste artificial at all. Cupcakes were great as well; they had some fun flavors such as durian and ube, which also tasted very realistic! I need to visit them myself to try their other desserts!

    Their Strawberry Matcha Latte is THE best! (fyi, I have tried MANY places) And their Ube Tiramisu is DELISH!!!

    Michelle O.

    I saw the different tiramisus on IG and really wanted to try them since they looked so pretty and unique. The original and matcha tiramisus looked really good, but I chose the matcha because I've been craving matcha more than usual. The ladyfingers had softened yet weren't soaked. The cream was light and airy. The matcha powder didn't taste bitter and was a pretty green. Since it was decorated for Easter, there was a cute chocolate nest full of Cadbury eggs and a Meji chocolate mushroom on the slice. Even hungry, the slice is almost too much for one person to consume in a sitting. The salted egg sponge cake looked pretty and interesting. I've seen it mentioned before but have never tried it. The sponge cake below was perfect. It was soft, fluffy and slightly sweet. There appears to be a thin cream cheese icing under the pork floss, salted egg yolk, and drizzle of condensed milk or icing. The savory and slightly sweet flavors work really well together.

They have an assortment of desserts, pre-made Viet food, coffee, and banh mis you can order-- all freshly made or pre-packaged the day before. I went on a Sunday, maybe a mistake, but it was supppperrrrr packed with a long line inside. A bit chaotic, but it's worth it to me. I got the che dau trang (sticky rice, black eyed peas, coconut milk). Spectacular!! I asked for the coconut milk at the cashier since they don't have it out with the rest of the desserts. I also ordered a Che Hue (an assortment of jellys, sweeten beans, and shaved ice, condensed milk, and peanuts on top).

They have a ton of vegetarian-friendly desserts. Additionally, they offer both soy milk and pennyworth by the half gallon. They also sell fresh banh cuon (steamed rice flour rolls). You can buy them by the pound, and they offer two types: one with minced meat and the other plain without meat. Oh and the sell banh mis as well. The lady behind the banh cuon counter is friendly and helpful, and so are the cashiers. However, don't expect the ladies behind the smoothie/fresh dessert counter to be as pleasant. I've been here a few times, and each time, they've been just as grumpy so I now skip that section. Note: The fresh stuff that they make daily like xoi (sticky rice) gets sold out quickly so it's best to arrive early, ideally before 3 p.m. to ensure there's some left. And they have a $10 minimum for credit card payment.

We finally came around to checking it out and OMG YES. It absolutely is worth the hype. As a lover of egg tarts and someone who is also very particular about it - these have won my heart! I also heard great things about the mango mochi so we couldn't leave without those. Thankfully they still had some in stock. I heard they sell out quickly especially on weekends. Those also lived up to its hype. SO YUMMY! Tastes so fresh including the mangoes. My kiddo who LOVES mango anything loved them so much! My husband also got 2 savory pastries (I forgot what they were called and I forgot to take a picture) and those were yummy too. Perfectly flakey crust just like the egg tarts. We wanted to get sesame balls but they were sold out. Customer service was great. The guy that took our order was very nice. It was pretty busy but he moved through the line quickly. There's some seating inside if you want to eat there. Prices are very reasonable at $2 each for the mochi and egg tarts. The savory pastries were $3. It's located in a shared lot/area. Parking can be tight and limited on a busy weekend day but they have parking right out front for the Eck bakery customers. Also note that if you pay with card it's a 2.5% charge so cash is better if you have it. We didn't but we know now for future. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back. Next time we'll come earlier and get a bigger order and try their other offerings.
