We came across this bakery by smelling the wonderful smells climbing up the hill for breakfast (it…read morewas early in the morning so the escalators were still heading down) . I wish we would have just stopped here instead because breakfast was disappointing, but nonetheless we came here after and it surely hit the spot. The matcha pastry is super tasty if you enjoy matcha but be careful because it can get messy with the filling. In all though this is for sure worth a try!

Simple bakery! Please look at the side they have cakes on display!…read more Location: It is located in Central. There is no seating inside. I made a mistake cause I went straight inside the small store. I didn't see the display of cakes on the side which they also have a big store for only cakes. Service: they are super nice. They gave me recommendations and they waited for me to choose. Food: I love their pastries rather than the other bakery beside them lol CINNAMON CUSTARD TART: the crust was buttery and the egg filling was soft and creamy. It was the perfect balance. I love it also because they serve it warm. It is perfect for coffee. BROOKIE: I was actually looking for something chocolate and I found this. It was good, it reminds me of Ghirardelli brownies. Chewy and moist inside. Price rating: 8/10 price range. It is expensive but af course it's HK which is everything expensive. If I get a chance to go back to HK I will definitely go back here and get the tarts!

Didnt get to try the earl grey mille crepe cake last time in NYC so i was hoping to find it here…read more What a bummer, they said it was seasonal and it wasnt available anymore. Side note, they had a hk exclusive flavour: salted caramel mille crepe cake. But i didnt try it. What I ordered: The original mille crepe cake The rose mille crepe cake Ive always loved loved loved their crepe cakes. Ever since my first visit in NYC ive been in love with them and tried so many places to try and find something similar since we dont have Lady M in Canada. But ofc none of my attempts succeed. I dont think ive seen the rose one in NYC. They both tasted amazing. I came here on a weekday afternoon. There was still a line (i came knowing there would be a line up, so no biggie), but it wasnt a long wait. Their tables were like along the sides of the mall, i dont even think i saw the store front or the cake shelf. I liked the two locations i visited in NYC where they were actual stores. Regardless the cakes were good!

I wanted to order online but unfortunately their website didn't work and failed to complete my order. I ended up physically going to the shop; fortunately the folks who take the cake orders are nice, competent, and speak English. The Belgian chocolate cake that I chose turned out wonderfully, and the personalized plate I got made it look like I spent a lot of money. For about $30USD, it's a pretty good deal! Totally recommend this spot as it's perfect for office-types who need cakes for various occasions.

I was given wedding gift vouchers to this place and it was difficult to use them all. I found the…read moremousse cups (blueberry, milk) good, but I probably wouldn't buy them if I didn't have the vouchers. The pastries/bread were standard fare, the whole/complete cakes had boring flavours like buttercream and were clearly more about aesthetics than taste, and the small cake slices/tarts for $4.2 HKD were unbearably bad. They were bland asf, totally not worth getting fat over. I wish my relative had gotten vouchers for another place.

Easy to get in and out during rush hour. As for the cakes, it's pretty tasty. I really want to try the fancier cakes they have on display, but I will say the mango tart was excellent!

Scrambling to find a cake last minute, I was relieved that I managed to order a pavlova from Le…read moreDessert 1-day before pick-up (do you know how rare this is?!). I even changed the pick-up location 1 hour after ordering, and they were able to accommodate. Pavlovas are perfect for that popular friend who's already had their 5th+ birthday cake! Reason being that it offers some variance from the repetition of cakes and is a safe bet after a filling meal with multiple desserts/cakes as it's super light (I am basically eating sugary air....). I ordered an 8" SIGNATURE ANTOINETTE $500, which was perfect for 7-9 people (as suggested by them). Custom chocolate sign and 1 candle included. Their pavlovas are fluffy and airy, made with french meringues, chantilly cream, and topped with fresh fruits. The Antoinette came with mangos, strawberries, and blackberries; in addition, a container of homemade strawberry coulis, which was considerably tangy. Drizzling it onto the merengue part offsets the sweetness and gives it a more complex flavour. Even my elderly relatives finished most of it, although a few did find the meringue was a tad sweet (they did not drizzle the strawberry coulis!). I also determined that ordering a larger size was more economical, so make sure you're getting one for 7+ people! *** Tip: Allow 1-day ordering in advance (before 7pm), pick up in PP or Harbour City, or spend $700 to get free shipping. 8" is good for up to 9 people (for once, their feeding guide on their website is accurate). Likes: Convenient online ordering and pick-up; accomodating service. Not overly sweet. Meh: Possibly a bit sweet for Asian elderlies; advise them to drizzle the coulis. Loyal cake lovers may prefer a cake over a pavlova. Last words: Light, airy and unique!

Cateraise is a chain bakery that sells Japanese style baked goods. We got a HK$100 gift card from…read morea relative, so I went to the store in Mongkok close to the MTR to get some cakes. I got 2 pieces of Tiramisu multi-layer cakes, and a piece of Chocolate Strawberry cake. They totalled HK$115. The cakes are of good quality, the Tiramisu cake was creamy and not too sweet, so that was good for me. Hubby had the piece of Chocolate cake and finished it all (he is not a cake/dessert person), and he enjoyed it. There was only 1 girl managing this store, and she was friendly. The bakery is inside a small shopping mall, you cannot see it from the street. The reason of subtracting one star is there could be a bigger variety to choose from. Other than that, baked goods are yummy!

This bakery is an in-between spot located right off the Mid-Levels escalator. If you don't time it…read moreright, you'll have to hike up (or down, depending what direction you're heading) to find the bakery. It is a trendy place for those who appreciate the pricier, more sophisticated aesthetic and quality of goods. What it isn't, is an inexpensive place to grab daily goods from, unless that's the way you like to roll. The door opening leads to a whiff of aromatic baked goods and several options, whether you like classic flavors like vanilla and chocolate, or more local flavor like black sesame. Since I was on a mission to taste the classic vanilla/egg tart flavors from several well known bakeries across town, I dived right into their Vanilla Flan, a flan tart that was more than my typical spend for a single bakery item in Hong Kong. The Vanilla Flan was heavyweight and thick, with a rich and custard-like interior, well speckled with vanilla bean, and soft yet slightly bouncy reverberation as teeth sink in. The flavor is definitely sweet and not light. The croissant shell surrounding the custard was layered visually but did not have that flaky crisp dismantling when bit into. It was more chewy than flaky as I worked my way around and into it. For the price, I wouldn't forgive myself if I went back for seconds, as I found other bakeries that make a better pastry in my opinion for half the cost. Needless to say, I was underwhelmed and expected more. However, they have many other attractive baked goods that may or may not be better. The service was quick and friendly, and completely in English, which I think is what the bakery aims toward. I am still interested in trying out their black sesame or matcha tarts, so that will have to be another trip, another time when I will do a different tasting tour.
