I initially stopped in to purchase bread, and after hearing about a variety of options from the very friendly and knowledgeable woman at the counter, I bought a loaf of pan de queso, which I usually refer to as Colombian bread. I also couldn't help but notice the different flavors of tres leches cakes available. SO, I got a hefty slice of caramel tres leches and IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! I definitely want to go back to try a slice of their strawberry tres leches ASAP. Overall, I had a great experience and will certainly be back soon.

Alpine Pastry Shoppe has been a staple in my family for years--every holiday you can imagine and…read moreeven for those random "just because" moments. A coworker recently asked me to bring back some cookies since she knew I was flying home to New York. When she said she wanted good quality cookies, I already knew exactly where I was headed: Alpine. Every time I walk into this place it somehow feels like the first time. Maybe it's the nostalgia from going there with my family for so many years, or maybe it's because it's still family-owned and truly has that warm, welcoming vibe. The people who work there are always so sweet, accommodating, and kind, which just adds to the experience. When anyone brings up rainbow cookies, Alpine is honestly the first place that comes to mind for me. They're the only ones I really go to for them. For my coworker, I picked up a pound of assorted cookies so she could try a little bit of everything. Selfishly, I was definitely thinking I should've ordered a box for myself too! She absolutely loved them, which came as no surprise. If you want truly great Italian cookies and pastries, Alpine Pastry Shoppe is the only place that comes to mind for me. I'm so happy to see that they're still open, and I truly hope they remain a neighborhood staple for many years to come.

The inside Rainbow cookie is moist and dense.

If you are looking for some fun donuts that taste good, CHANAS BAKERY!!!!

I stumbled upon the Instagram for this online cake donut business run by a woman named Chana, and…read morehad been wanting to order for months. I was so enticed by the whimsical, atypical flavors and the bright saturated colors. I finally ordered the 5 pack and chose these flavors: 'Cotton Candy', 'Strawberry Crumb', 'Chocolate Banana', 'American Dreamsicle' and 'Italian Rainbow Cookie'. I loved the way each donut was wrapped in plastic and placed so intentionally in its packaging - a sleek gold-colored box with a sticker bearing her logo (a 'C' for Chana that doubles as a donut with purple frosting on it and sprinkles). My boyfriend and I did a "tasting" together trying small ¼ pieces of each flavor. The 'Cotton Candy' (pink frosting with swirls of blue) had a subtle cotton candy flavor but was very sweet, the 'Strawberry Crumb' (bright red) was tart, delicious and one of my favorites. The 'Rainbow Italian Cookie' (covered in tiny green, red & white sprinkles) tasted just like the real cookie; so enjoyable with a pronounced almond flavor. The 'American Deamsicle' (covered in blue, red & white round sprinkles) tasted like orange and was pretty good. My absolute favorite was the 'Chocolate Banana' (a striking yellow with brown swirls), which had a more tolerable sweetness than the others. Overall, I enjoyed the donuts: the taste, the uniqueness and the colors. My only feedback is that I would like the donuts less sweet, so it is easier to eat a whole donut. I would rate Chana's Donuts 3.8 out of 5 stars, and I would definitely order again to try new flavors, or to get the 'Chocolate Banana' or 'Strawberry Crumb' flavors again :)

She asked clarifying questions to ensure my cake was how I wanted it to be! I ordered a heart shaped funfetti cake with cannoli filling. It was DELICIOUS!! Super moist cake (unlike the dry ones from the generic supermarket) and it was sooo beautiful. I've always wanted a cake like this for my birthday and what better way to get what you want than ordering it yourself! This is your sign to stop waiting for someone else to surprise you and JUST DO IT! Also got some small cute cupcakes. Will come back here for more!

After getting pizza from the next door Dominos (the shared lot has about 20 parking spaces and the…read moresupermarket across the street has lots more) on a late Sunday afternoon, I went to the bakery to see what they had: Lots of breads and Italian(!) -style butter cookies, and a few pastries. I selected a flan wedge and a chocolate cake slice, both of which could feed 2-3 people! The clerk asked if I wanted caramel sauce with the flan, to which I said, "What's a flan without caramel?" She used a restaurant-type condiment dispenser to squeeze out a rather thin consistency caramel onto the wedge, but, put a lot on it. By the time I got home, less than a half-hour later, the clear, corrugated, plastic, had "trapped" most of the caramel that had oozed off the flan, and, of which, the syrup had dried/seized to the point of being unusable (the plastic was too thin to safely microwave, so I couldn't get the caramel to liquefy that way). The flan was too eggy and dense for my taste, and not sweet enough, with, virtually, no vanilla flavor. The chocolate cake with white cream was too light/fragile, and there was not enough chocolate taste. The cost for both was about $13, incl tax, which, considering my disappointment in the taste, was not worth it. I might be back to sample their other goods, but, I won't be ordering the flan or chocolate cake, again. P.S. To the reviewer who said, "This place (i.e., Brentwood) is legit dangerous," I have travelled throughout Brentwood since the 60s, by foot, bicycle, car, and train, mostly by myself, and have never encountered anything that could be considered "dangerous." Shame on you for spreading social media stereotypes!

I vowed to get to this bakery that is quite a distance from my home. Sadly, I just heard that they will be permanently closing their doors on December 26, 2025. With that being said, I wanted to make sure I got there to get their rainbow cookie crumb cake for one last time! I made a special trip on my way home from work. On this late Wednesday evening, I stopped in to find the LAST piece of rainbow crumb cake for the day. While they had plenty of the regular crumb cake and red velvet crumb cake, it's the rainbow cookie crumb cake that is my favorite. BTW, I recommend going earlier in the day to ensure you get exactly what you want. Luckily they still had what I just had to have. Additionally, they have a bunch of other baked goods. In the cases there were cookies, cakes, cheese cakes, lobster claws, Napoleons, cupcakes, etc. too! The homey bakery space is roomy with a table of baked-good trays to go in the center of the store. Since I was the only person in the bakery, the girls were attentive and accommodating.

I cannot wait to order them again. We ate them so quickly, I didn't even take a picture to show my friends (and I take pictures of all my food)! Another great part is they do great work and can cater to just about any of your ideas - For example, all I had to do was give them a call, ask if they could make a paleo cupcake and voila! So, I'm sure if you have any special ideas or requests you can speak to someone directly that can assist you and make your sweet treat even sweeter!!!
