    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.

    Matcha Cake / Pandan Cake

    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!

    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.

    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.

    I ordered a custom cake for my daughter's birthday and had a very disappointing experience. When I placed the order, the staff assured me they couldn't guarantee a 100% match to my inspiration photo but would match at least 85%. Unfortunately, when I picked up the cake, the only things they got right were the shape and the 3D sugar photo. The color wasn't even close to the light blue in the photo I provided--it was dark blue instead. The decorations were completely different as well, despite the fact that they charged me an extra $40 to supposedly source the exact materials from the photo. When I tried to address this with the store afterward, it took them days to respond to my first message. When I replied back, they completely ignored me and never responded again. Clearly, they didn't care anymore since they already had my money. The cake costs me $125. The store also blamed the issue on filters in my inspiration photo, claiming it made the colors appear different. However, anyone could clearly see that the cake in the photo was light blue, not the dark blue they used. To make matters worse, they questioned why I accepted the cake at pickup if I wasn't happy. It's outrageous--does the store expect me to show up to my daughter's birthday party without a cake? The entire situation was a disaster, and my daughter cried so hard on her special day. The store's poor response and shady business practices were completely unacceptable. If you're considering ordering a custom cake for a special occasion, save yourself the stress and look elsewhere!

When I stopped by on a weekday evening at 9pm it was packed. They had stations setup throughout the store to order different goods, which helped to alleviate the rush. Knafeh ($6) - They offered 2 types of knafeh, one with cheese and one with custard. I went with the one made with Nabulsi cheese and topped with shredded phyllo, and soaked in sugar syrup. It was warm, crispy and delicious! Karak tea ($5) - This milk tea drink was made with aromatic spices, primarily cardamom, cloves, ginger and cloves. I was happy to see they used whole milk instead of evaporated milk. The drink was incredibly rich and creamy and tasted great. Turkish delight ($18 / lb.) - This was extremely fresh, soft and chewy, made with cornstarch, sugar, nuts. Some of the varieties I tried had chocolate and/or fruits. The baklava here was fresh made with layers of phyllo dough, chopped nuts, and held together with some honey. The nut offerings here included, almonds, walnuts, peanuts and a few more. Overall I was impressed with everything they offered here with the exception of the nuts, which I thought were just ok. I'd definitely return if I was in the area.

    The desserts here are fun, unique, and very different from what you find at most places. My only…read morecomplaint is the lack of labeling for many of the products. For example, with the Turkish delights and ice cream selections, only a few items are labeled. For most of them, you have to guess the flavor or ingredients. When I asked questions, there was a language barrier, and the staff member behind the counter was unable to clearly explain what the items were in English. This can be especially frustrating for customers with food allergies or dietary restrictions. In the U.S., I would expect all flavors and ingredients to be clearly labeled so customers can make informed choices. Even if staff members are not fluent in English, having accurate labels for flavors and ingredients would greatly improve the customer experience. The desserts themselves are excellent, but better product labeling would make the experience much more enjoyable and accessible for everyone.

I tried the Chocolate Royale and the Ruby. Chocolate Royale - a petit chocolate mouse slice with flat chocolate panels along the sides. It is delicate and tasty. If you're a chocolate lover, this is definitely up your alley. Ruby - visually this looks like a strawberry Hershey kiss, with red powder on the exterior and a top piece of foil to resemble foil on the wrapper of a hershey kiss. Inside, it's filled with a strawberry cream and has a chocolate base. I just wish there was more chocolate in this one. They have plenty of seating inside as well as along the sidewalk. Inside you have the more fancy tables, whereas outside, they're more weather resistant and not as upscale in appearance. The soft drinks to drink along with your sweets are in a cold case along the hotel side of the space and you just take them to the register as you order. One of the most surprising things when you come here are the relatively affordable prices as you might expect them to be more for being a coffee shop attached to a 5-star hotel with a helipad.

Since we were already in the area after breakfast at TJ's Filipino Cuisine, we finally got the chance to stop by and try their baked goods for ourselves. We arrived early, so the bakery wasn't too busy yet. The bakers were busy prepping more goodies in the back while my cousin and I browsed all the Filipino baked goods we really miss from back home in the Philippines. They even had suman, sapin-sapin, biko, and other kakanin, which was nice to see. I specifically looked for the chicken empanada, and my cousin wanted to try the ube white chocolate chip cookie. We also saw different kinds of siopao and planned to come back later to buy some before heading back to San Antonio. We tried the ube white chocolate chip cookie first, but honestly we weren't totally satisfied. It tasted more like a regular white chocolate chip cookie with purple coloring and didn't really have much ube flavor. I also tried the chicken empanada. My cousin didn't like it because it was sweeter than expected--we were both expecting it to be savory. There seemed to be caramelized sugar in the outside of the pastry, which probably added to the sweetness. I still like it, though it was definitely sweeter than what I'm used to. Red Ribbon's chicken empanada is still my favorite. Later that day before leaving Houston, we came back for the siopao we planned to take home. We finally decided to just buy a couple pieces for ourselves, heat them up in the bakery, and try them fresh. When we saw the price for a four-pack, we were honestly disappointed. It felt expensive for the size. The siopao wasn't huge, and while I like the dough, there wasn't much chicken filling inside. For the portion, taste, and quality, it felt overpriced. Overall, it's probably not worth making another trip back for us. We did enjoy the cassava ube suman, and I like the chicken empanada, but not enough to drive all the way to Houston just for those. If I live nearby, I might come back to try other baked goods, but based on this visit, I'm not sure the rest would impress my palate. I still give them credit for cleanliness and customer service, although we did notice fruit flies on one of the shelves and reported it. The staff was friendly, and the bakery itself was welcoming. At the end of the day, since they're a bakery, the expectation is great-tasting, quality, mouthwatering Filipino breads, pastries ", and kakanin. While some items were enjoyable, overall it just didn't quite live up to the hype for us.
