    Saw this on tik tok and decided to drive in. The pastries were all really great and we were able to take some to my husbands employees with nothing but great feedback. We were also able to try a few of their dishes and thought they were just ok. Probably would not return for the food but pastries were a 10/10. The dulce de leche latte was also a 10/10 and def would recommend

    I ordered a custom cake (Frida Kahlo themed) from Don Polvoron for my birthday. The cake was a huge success. It was delicious, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully decorated!!! the flavor was tres leches, and the feeling was cream with fresh mango. Ordering the cake was very easy. I placed the order in person four days in advance. I prepared it with my credit card and I told him the time when I would pick it up. They also make large wedding cakes or cakes for any occasion. I also bought a few pastries. A traditional concha and a Pinguinos chocolate muffin. they had many different pastries as well, although I did not try them. The pastries were a solid choice and freshly baked. I noticed that many people were also eating Mexican food that they also cook at their restaurant. Parking was easy and free. They also have accessible parking near the front entrance.

    At almost 6:30PM, still lots to choose from!

    Came to try their horchata latte one morning. You can definitely tell the horchata is house-made. It hits different in the best way: creamy and super flavorful. This is not your regular taqueria spot horchata. That said, I do wish it had been strained more to make it smooth. Even after mixing and swirling the drink, I kept getting chunks and grains with each sip, ended up doing more chewing than sipping, which isn't what I'm looking for in a coffee experience. The coffee itself is already chilled in a pitcher, so it's served cold and ready to go. Hopefully it was just an off day, since it's a new drink they're offering. The horchata flavor is there, just needs a little refining! The staff could've been a bit friendlier this visit. Happy to see they added little name signs to the breads! :)

    Don Polvoron opened where Petra Middle East Cuisine once was. Interior updated with bakery section and Mexico pics on walls. Offerings (Mexican): bakes, eats-breakfast, drinks, burritos, breakfast tortas, antojitos (street snacks: Tamales, quesadillas..), Waiting for service while 3 latinas alternating serving patrons at bakery & ringing them up at central register. No numbers for lineup. Easy for a senorita to "cut" in line ahead of me. Didn't know breakfast available. So didn't partake. Bites: Almohada's de queso (pillow cake 3.10) -x's on the surface. Some purée like substance in the middle mixed with queso (cheese). Interesting.. Dane's relleno (danish-ish 4) -peach & strawberry purée/jam in middle. Mex. Breading not same as danish. Not my "jam". Napolitano (3.10) -white icing atop. Soft cake underneath. Some parts not so soft. 3.5 stars bakes not my style. Would stick to breakfast next time.

    Pan Dulce

    Had a pierna guisada torta per recommendation from the worker and two conchas (pan dulce) three weeks ago in May for lunch. I thought the torta was really good! I like that it comes with a side of sauce you can eat it with. The selection of pastries was very impressive but I just settled for the pan dulce. I thought it was alright. It was pretty but tasted a bit old and dry. I think my standards are a bit high because I tried one in Cancun before and it was fantastic! I think if I heated it up it would be alright paired with a coffee to start the day. Overall this is a decent place to get Mexican pastries and a quick breakfast/lunch! I would come back and try other pastries. Very friendly workers!

    The employees were very nice and helpful. The conchas are SUPER SOFT!!! Will definitely be coming back for more of those. They also sell custom cakes for events.

    Adorable new panaderia with Mexican food including tortas, tamales, flautas, pupusas, etc. They do not serve tacos and burritos other than a breakfast burrito in the morning. I'm assuming this is due to Cinco taco next-door. Went during lunch and there were several folks working and I was greeted promptly at the door. There's a few tables, but most of the food is taken to go. Oh yum love their pan! Had the upside down pineapple muffin that was so fresh and tasty. Couldn't stop myself from eating it while I waited for my Sope and pupusa. Their food is made to order and everything is very fresh. That was probably one of the best sope I've had in a while. Freshly fried dough pilled with beans, roasted pork, lettuce & tomato. I took the pupusa to go. It was perfectly made and filled with beans and cheese. Since it was meticulously made by a baker, there was no cheese spillage, resulting in no yummy crunchy fried cheese edges. The bakery is where Petra's Middle Eastern food used to be in the same shopping center as Target next-door to Cinco Taco. This is more of an upscale Panadería and the prices reflect that.

    I stopped in during their grand opening and was warmly welcomed. They were offering samples of their sandwiches (tortas) and other treats. They had a variety of pan dulce. It all looked so delicious and guess what, it's as good as it looks! At least the concha and cuerno (horn) I had were delicious. They offer custom cakes and food. I can't wait to try! I'm delighted that Livermore finally has a place to get pan dulce!!

    the friendliness, courtesy, cleanliness and good vibes of this business exceed the quality and price of the product. the flavor, texture, freshness and size of pastries was on par with those of latin bakeries i've tried over in tracy , but price was more here. prices in tracy ranged from 1.25 to 1.75, while here they were 1.60 to 3.15. Still, the sweets were superior to those of the local mexican grocery store in town. the burritos were 12$ and way smaller than at other local places. meat was very shredded on the chicken and asada, and dispersed through plentiful rice. ok tasty, but i missed the fresh taste of pico and cilantro and bite size pieces of meat. overall, the 56$ for 2 burritos and a dozen sweets was not worth it.

    small assortment of mexican baked goods and hot food. they also have a meat display for popular custom cakes! the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. they didn't rush us when there was a line growing. everything was clean and neat. gotta try their coffees next time.

Parking get be difficult at times but there is street parking and the big parking structure isn't too far from here. This cafe can get really busy on the weekends especially on Farmer's Market Sundays. I have tried a couple different drinks and all have been very good. The combos they make are delicious, not overly sweet and plenty of strong coffee that I require in early mornings. I also tried their seasonal matcha with cherry foam and that was also delicious, great balance of subtle sweetness and acidity. Forgot to mention the store is small so I think this is more ideal to take to go and walk around downtown.

I was excited to see flavors in croissants. everything croissants, has seasoning of everything bagel and some cream cheese inside. I loved the combo. Ham and cheese croissants was so yummy that my daughter finches it in a minute. Almond croissant was on sweeter side and outer layer is crunch and not heavily filled which we loved. Regular coffee is good , has nutty fruity aftertaste. My daughter had iced cherry matcha which she totally recommended :)
