An absolute paradise for croissant lovers!…read more The variety here is incredible, with a huge selection of both sweet and savory croissants that makes it almost impossible to choose! Everything looks so fresh, delicious, and beautifully made. The croissants are absolutely delightful, and the coffee is a perfect complement. We especially loved triple chocolate, almond pan au chocolat and raspberry chocolate croissants. The service was excellent, friendly, and impressively fast, even with how busy the place was. The indoor space felt a little crowded, but honestly, it was completely worth it! Such a wonderful bakery with an amazing selection and a lively atmosphere. Definitely a must-visit and a place I would happily return to!

They were delicious, had the perfect texture, and somehow stayed moist and fresh for several days. The biggest test was that everyone loved them--not just the gluten-free people!

I've been meaning to try Choc Cookies ever since we moved to the area, and we finally got to stop…read moreby last night! Unfortunately, 3 out of the 4 cookies were a miss for me. As a Filipino who's familiar with how ube desserts should taste, I was especially excited about the ube cookie, but I couldn't taste the ube at all. It was pretty disappointing. The triple chocolate was okay, though! I actually liked the texture of the cookies, which makes it even more unfortunate that the flavors didn't deliver. They were just underwhelming overall. I really wanted to love these, but taste matters just as much as texture. Hopefully, the flavors improve because the cookies definitely have potential!

I stopped here for a quick coffee and a treat after trying to go to the new Yemeni Cafe which was…read moretoo packed to visit. I got the caramel macchiato. It was yummy! The spinach feta danish. Loved it! Got a matcha donut thing which was in a sleeve... it had so much filling... it was way too much for me. I think the last thing I got was some garlic cheese croissant. That was delicious. Too heavy for me. They had sample cake slices at the counter! I tried the cake and it was also delicious. One con: the service... the guy that took my order seemed so harsh.... Like I was interrupting him and should hurry up and finish ordering. I didn't take long or anything. Just an unfriendly tone. But service was quick and I was satisfied with what I got. (I didn't eat all that in one sitting. I got a few of them to go because they looked too good to not try)

If you're looking for a café that's full of energy, delicious pastries, and perfectly crafted…read moredrinks, Tous Les Jours in Santa Clara is an absolute delight! I had such a fun time exploring their bakery and café offerings. It's the kind of place where everything looks too good to pass up. I started with a Cappuccino 16oz (creamy, rich, and the perfect morning pick-me-up) and a Caramel Macchiato 16oz with oat milk for a smooth, slightly sweet twist. The pastries were next-level: the Mango Cream Donut was light, fluffy, and bursting with fruity goodness, and the Guava Danish was perfectly flaky and sweet with just the right hint of tropical flavor. *Tina's Tips: - Grab a tray, tongs, and parchment paper to make picking your pastries fun and easy. - Add all the pastries you want and checkout at the counter. - If you buy a cake, ask them to hold it while you enjoy your coffee and treats in the café. It's a nice little bonus! Just come here with your friends or yourself! Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee with people, indulging in pastries with company, or even just treating yourself, Tous Les Jours makes every visit feel like a little celebration.

For my baby shower I went with a Winnie the Pooh theme, which I adored as a kid myself…read more I worked with Maryam from Marvel Cake to come up with our custom cake order, based on an inspiration image I found. The canvas is a creamy white frosting, the base wrapped with flowing grass icing and white and yellow flower fondant. A classic whimsical Winnie and Piglet are nestled in the grass. As you make your way to the top of the cake, there's a "Hunny" jar with overflowing honey icing spilling over the side, and little fondant bees enjoying the bountiful honey. Perched at the top next to the honey jar is a chocolate yellow honeycomb, a perfect touch to this artful cake. The cake was an absolute hit with guests, and a perfect centerpiece. Then it came time to cut the cake... which felt so wrong but also so so right. The cake cut smoothly and was impeccably moist. Inside was a chocolate cake with a chocolate mousse filling. It was as lovely and delicious on the inside as it appeared on the outside. Infinity out of 10, can't recommend Marvel Cake enough! Great communication with Maryam, on-time pickup the morning of our event, and the price was very reasonable. If you're in the Campbell / San Jose area and looking for a custom cake, look no further! Marvel is the best there is!

The Paris Brest was my favorite of the four! The service was friendly and helpful, and the shop has cute indoor seating that makes it a nice spot to enjoy dessert. While the prices are a bit on the higher side, the quality makes it worthwhile. Overall, a great spot for pastries and desserts. I've visited Marvel a couple times with my family now.

Crepe cake cafe with well made desserts…read more Situated right next to a huge parking lot, I came here with a friend for some cake and to pass the time before a dinner reservation. Interior is very neutral/beige with the pops of color coming from some plants scattered inside the space. There's WiFi available and for 6pm on a Saturday, it was empty. We ordered two cakes: pandan raspberry and a tiramisu. Both were really well layered but it tasted like the tiramisu had far more cake layers than the pandan raspberry. The pandan raspberry was more raspberry with minimal pandan flavor. The tiramisu tasted just like its name and was great! Both were very lightly sweet cakes, and it was surprisingly easy for my friend and I to devour two slices and still feel ready for dinner later. I wouldn't get the pandan raspberry again, but would be willing to try other slices with how the tiramisu was. The downside is the cakes are pricey. And it feels the interior can't decide if it's trying to be minimal on purpose, or the furnishings were meant for a smaller space/grab-and-go only spot originally but then they moved to a larger location with seating. Good cakes, I would consider swinging by here to pick up a slice for a special occasion.

They matched the reference photo I gave them almost exactly - and actually made it look better than the photo! They were so kind and patient in our back-and-forth about the cake details and it was packaged so carefully on the day of the pick-up. Every step of the process went so smoothly and I cannot recommend them enough. Plus, everything I have ever had from them has been delicious. This place is such a gem within the Bay Area. I am beyond grateful to the wonderful and talented staff at La Patisserie.

I've been coming to La Patisserie in Cupertino for years, usually when I'm already in the area…read moreshopping. There are a lot more fancy dessert shops around the Bay Area these days, but somehow I still come back for their Guava Cake. It's actually a strange craving. I don't think about this cake every week. Sometimes I completely forget about it for months, then one day something goes wrong in my brain and suddenly I NEED a guava cake. I've had this cake many times over the years and that's probably what impresses me most - it really hasn't changed much. Same fluffy cake, same very fragrant guava flavor, same bright old-school appearance. Maybe the angle of the whipped cream piping has changed a few degrees over the years, but I'll allow that process deviation. The guava flavor is the main reason I keep buying it. To me, it tastes surprisingly natural and close to real fruit. I've had plenty of guava desserts where you immediately get that artificial syrup/flavoring impression. I don't get that here. The guava is strong and fragrant, the cake itself is very light and fluffy, and the mousse and glossy guava topping give you that fruit flavor in almost every bite. This is definitely an old-school cake. It's not trying to be Lady M or some modern Instagram dessert. And that's fine. A good traditional cake is still a good cake. Usually I'm buying the whole cake to bring to someone's house, so I've watched a lot of first-timers try it over the years. Guava is guava - some people think it's on the sweet side, others love how fragrant it is. But somehow this is the one guava cake I've brought around that pretty much everybody ends up liking. And one comment I hear a lot is how natural the guava flavor tastes. It's around $70 for a whole cake now, which definitely isn't cheap. But if I'm paying that much for cake, at least give me something I can actually remember the next day. This one I can. If I'm planning to pick one up around 4 or 5 PM, I normally order earlier in the day. I've learned not to conduct unnecessary cake-inventory experiments. After all these years, La Patisserie's Guava Cake is still basically the same cake I remember. Dr. C long-term stability study: PASSED. Whipped cream piping angle may have experienced minor process drift. No CAPA required.

Thanks to my recent introduction to "Too Good To Go" app, I pleasantly discovered Korean baked…read moregoods at Baker's Village. Wisely, I checked Yelp reviews first because some deals can be too good to be true. It's hidden gem off El Camino and near Lawrence Expressway where those that know good Korean baking have this spot on their short list of preferred places. I arrived a few minutes before my scheduled pick up time and Korean grandma behind the counter was super pro, teaching me how to confirm check in and gave me a mixed bag of baked goods with/without fillings. If you like surprises, are omnivore & no special diets or food allergies, Too Good To Go is the way to explore. The items were in generic packaging without labels, so take a pic of the items you like so can order when visit next time. While my family enjoyed all the items, I really enjoyed the black sesame studded puffy rolls that I think were made with rice flour. There was a large group of older Asian ladies, including one who brought their lap dog, enjoying good conversations in their native language with their baked goods and tea or coffee. Another gentleman was taking a video call to help decide the best cake to buy. Will add this bake shop for a place to have a coffee meeting and to favorite in Too Good To Go.

1484 Halford Ave Santa Clara, CA 95051…read more This was my first visit to Baker's Village in Santa Clara. It was a warm day, and I was drawn to this bakery by their fruit smoothies. It was near 5pm. I walked in and the place was empty. The gentleman behind the counter greeted me. I asked for a strawberry smoothie, then walked around to survey all the baked goods. It's a small bakery with lots of trays of individually packaged cakes and pastries. The smell was very pleasant and comforting. Using a flat basket (or tray) I grabbed a few selections. I picked 2 "Heart Pies" that resembled my favorite French Butterfly Cookies. Also 2 pound cakes. The total rang up to just over $21. There's some small tables for enjoying your purchases there, but I took my items to go. The icy cold fruit smoothie was very good and very cold! Not too sweet, it had a natural strawberry taste. The Heart Pies were good and fresh. But the Pound Cakes were probably "day old." I noticed there's no dates or "best by" tags on the packages. It's a nice place to visit, and I will return again. Free parking in plaza lot.

It's partially 5 stars because the lady who helped me was so welcoming and sweet. She offered me a bread sample and a free coffee! The Pasteis de Nata are ＄3.50 a piece but that seems to be the going rate for tiny homemade pies (and similar baked goods). If you're used to the Asian version of this snack, it's a little heavier/thicker and this particular one might have had some cinnamon flavor in it? I'd give it a light toast for the best experience, but eating it straight from the box was delightful with the coffee as well. Support this local business! Final tip, park on the street right outside the shop and before you pass the shop. I ended up making a loop to get back because there wasn't a good spot to park on the next block.
