I've been seeing a couple of reviews about their taro paste cream puff and knew I had to try it because I love a slightly sweetened dessert and I also really like taro paste. I would definitely go back and get it again another day. The Taro paste is added to the center very generously and the whip cream is nice and light with only a hint of sweetness. On top of this, the bread was not overly heavy and had a nice crunchy top. The service was very quick like any other Chinese bakery. I will be back another day to try more of their items.

There's a variety - buns/bread, cakes, ice cream, etc. Got a free matcha soft serve with a $10 purchase - though light in matcha flavor and not creamy, was ok. I liked the black sesame soy cake (?)- different, not too sweet; and the chocolate mousse was good too. Each was ok for 2 people so wasn't bad pricewise. A few tables and counters/high stools by the windows for dining-in. No restroom. Located near the Main St train station.

Rainbow Bakery is a Chinese bakery in Flushing that operates as a straightforward, affordable stop…read morefor baked buns and light breakfast and lunch items. We walked into a no frills space where the prices are among the lowest we have found for fresh baked goods in the area, with most items running under two dollars. The black sesame and red bean buns are the items most worth seeking out, and they have earned repeat visits from people who plan their trips to Flushing around stopping here. The black sesame in particular has a depth of flavor that the more common sweet bun fillings do not match. We also tried the taro bread, which is soft with a smooth filling, another reliable choice for anyone who enjoys that flavor profile. The potato salad bun is a more unusual option that has developed its own following among regulars. The buns are individually wrapped for freshness, and the overall quality on the baked goods side is consistent and genuinely good for the price. The savory side of the menu covers ham and egg sandwiches, rice rolls, and dim sum options that function as a quick meal rather than a destination dining experience. We found results there more variable, and the baked goods are where the bakery is most dependable. For an affordable, no frills bakery stop in Flushing that delivers on value and a few standout buns, Rainbow Bakery is a reliable choice. We would come back specifically for the black sesame bun and keep our expectations calibrated on the savory side.

There's a lot of bakeries who have basic or plain savory breads and a lot more sweet ones. I prefer savory over sweet so this was a nice stop for me. Not sure if it was worth the price compared to going to a nearby food stall, but it was enough to hold me over a couple of hours in the morning. It can get packed and busy in here so it's really more of a grab and go type of bakery.

Maxin Bakery is a classic Flushing Chinese bakery focused on affordable baked goods, steamed buns,…read moreand traditional grab and go pastries. I walked into a simple, functional space with shelves and cases filled with buns, cakes, and packaged items meant more for quick pickup than sitting or browsing for long. The roasted pork buns and BBQ style buns were some of the most commonly picked items. I tried one and the bread was soft with a savory filling that leaned slightly sweet depending on the batch. Egg tarts are also part of the regular rotation, along with red bean buns and sponge cakes that stick to a more traditional bakery profile. The steamed buns section was a big part of the appeal here, especially for someone looking for quick, inexpensive food like pork buns or plain buns to take away. Prices are generally low compared to more modern bakeries in Flushing, which was a major reason I stopped in. Service was quick and straightforward, with my order handled fast even during a busy hour. The bakery has a high turnover of items throughout the day, so freshness can vary depending on timing, and selection is best earlier when the trays are more stocked. It is very much a grab and go spot rather than a place designed for dining in or browsing slowly. Overall, Maxin Bakery is a budget friendly Flushing bakery for basic Chinese baked goods and buns, best for quick snacks like pork buns, red bean buns, and egg tarts rather than specialty or dessert focused items.

They have all the baked goods that the bigger stores have, probably made at the one further down on Main St and delivered here in the morning. With the heavy foot traffic through here, I'm sure the baos here turnover rather quickly. I love to have a char siu bao for breakfast at the office in the mornings. A quick 30 sec in the microwave is all you need. Sometimes, I'll have a ham & egg or a 4 petal hot dog & bacon bun for variety. If I'm feeling the sweet tooth, a pineapple, egg custard bao or tart is the way to go.

Been seeing a lot of reviews and videos from @kittycateva of this place about this huge Mochi…read more Since we were in flushing, we decided to check it out. For the filling, you get to choose 2 or 3 fillings, but we got 2 fillings to try out. We got the mango pomelo & strawberry with rice powder for the dusting. They accept cards unless it's $5 but they do not take discovery cards. Super fresh and not overly sweet, which I was surprised by. I never knew there was another food hall in the area and there were a lot of good food stalls. Even good coconut was there too. Next time I need to check out the other stalls

Located inside Golden Mall a block away from Main Street. No ambiance wise, just a typical food…read morestand inside a food court. Easy to miss it if you don't know the store name since Golden Sponge doesn't indicate they're selling mochi unless you're actually there yourself or you see a picture from someone's review. Besides the giant mochi, they also sell very affordable sponge cakes ranging from $1 to $1.50. The giant mochi is getting viral for being the size of a huge blob and the different fillings you can have being stuffed inside (wrapped with the mochi) depending on various prices. My friends and I got the giant mochi with four fillings. Total turns out to be $14. We have chosen mango pomelo + cookie & cream + strawberry + lychee rose. We're amazed by the vibrant colors side by side next to each other. It is a very cool process to watch the staff make it in person. Would be best to eat the mochi freshly made. Don't try to eat it by yourself though because it's way too fulfilling imo. Best to split the whole thing between 3-5 people. The ratio of cream cheese to the fruit pieces is mainly 8:2 which I didn't expect it. To be honest, I am expecting more fruit and not only few pieces as garnish. Realistically, you're eating 80% cream cheese and 20% of the thin mochi consistency. If you're lactose intolerant, it might not stomach too well in your digestive system. The staff has mixed in everything together. However, I can't tell what I am exactly eating or if I can actually differentiate between the 4 filling flavors. Its presentation of the pastel cotton candy colors is top notch nonetheless. Picture worthy for IG/TikTok, although taste wise falls short from here for me. Overall, there's way too much cream cheese inside. Also, the mochi texture gets lost within the rich filling. The first two bites are fine. But as you keep digging in, you get the feeling of being overwhelmed by a sugar overload. Therefore, you will feel very full after just a few bites. Another thing is that, they should've provided chopsticks or forks rather than plastic spoons. Not gonna lie, but it's pretty hard to actually scoop the mochi up. Like I'm saying, I don't recommend this dessert for those who can't tolerate anything dairy. The giant mochi is officially a "once-and-done" dessert for me. Might be great for filming a viral video, but save that money for something else more worthwhile instead.

Interior of the bakery is pretty big with seating in the back, although it does have a lot of foot traffic.

This Chinese bakery has been one of my usual spots in Flushing to buy a small sized birthday cake…read more Tried a bunch of them and they have all been great, including the most recently ordered Blueberry Cake and Grape Cake. However, maybe my all time favorite cake was the Mango Pomelo. As for the rest, they have a line of fruit shaped desserts that are quite delicious too. I especially like the Mango. The Coconut was cute looking, but the taste was just okay. Haven't tried the Peach or Banana yet, but plan to at some point. I also enjoy their Black Sesame Bread and a few other pastries. Lastly, not sure how often this situation might come up, but Shakalaka is the only place to get Chinese breads till 10:00pm in the area. Everything else closes before 9:00pm. Bao Pastry and Naisnow are both open past 9:00pm, but neither sell any regular Chinese sandwiches or various breads.
