Jungle theme baby shower cake.

Lucero bakery went above and beyond to match the inspiration picture. Everyone raved about how beautiful it came out. Not to mention it was delicious. Highly recommend for your next event.

3 leches chocolate in the fridge. Self serve.

Lucero's is confusing on Yelp since there are two locations. I haven't been to the other one lately (which is literally down the street), but this one has expanded. They still offer the lovely range of baked goods, churros, and cakes, flans, etc. It looks like they also offer whole cakes as well. Churros- just give them your money. They have regular churros and filled ones (Nutella, cajeta, mango, lemon, guava, etc.). Champurrado- hot and inviting. The large is gigantic Service is fast and no nonsense. They're very thorough, though. It's not really a place to hang out and eat, but you can stand around and scarf down a churros if you'd like. Parking is ok. The lot is dedicated but small, and the pavement is crackley and uneven, but fine for most cars.

A friend brought churros from this place and it was a hit! We loved it so much we bought some for another party and it did not disappoint. The churros were still good even as leftovers. Parking is limited in front of the store but there is street parking.

My Husbamd introduce me to this bakery when we first started dating. We meet back in March 25, 1997 we have been coming her since then we know live in bakersfield, every chance we get to come back into town we stop by Luceros. This has be our favorite, now we share it with our 2 sons they are now 22 & 23 yrs young. This place has been around for many years it's apart of this great community here in Bell Gardens. It's been apart of our family. I hope you will give it a try and find out why we like it so much, and make it a part of your family. I can't end this review without saying something about the staff they are great, the service is Amazing they treat you like family. 10 stars we come for the 3 leches cakes and the churros

Cake

We used to love getting our cakes here for every celebration, but lately the tres leches cake hasn't been the same. It's been dry, with only the top part soaked. Unfortunately, this has happened more than once.

Churro with Mexican bread.

My wife was scheduled to work at the Rite Aid in Maywood. I found Lucero Bakery about 3 block away from her work. Lucero Bakery is known for making one of the best churro in Southern California. Their churro is one of the best. It was hot, light and crunchy and not too sweet. They also have a good assortment of Mexican breads. DJ's rating: 4.35/5.00 Would I come back? Yes.

The baker I've been using for 10+ years retired so I found Blue Cake House on Yelp and took a leap…read moreof faith in trusting them to make my daughter's first birthday cake. I am so glad I did! Not only was the design exactly what I wanted, the taste was phenomenal and even tastier than my previous bakery. I got so many compliments on the cake (taste) and they use fresh fruit instead of preserves which I appreciate. We ordered the lemon cake with lemon & cream cheese lemon curd and fresh raspberries. Delish! For my daughter's smash cake we did white velvet cake with cream cheese and strawberries. Unfortunately, my daughter did not eat her smash cake with two attempts, but fortunately that left more cake for me & my family . By the way, I priced several bakeries and home bakers, and Blue Cake House along with the others were all roughly the same price. Some were more expensive by $40 and some were less by $20, so I would say their pricing is competitive. I paid $40 for a smash cake, where as Amy's Pastry charges $16 but they add fees for every little thing such as fruit, colored frosting, etc. Plus, they are limited on cake flavors & fillings. Blue Cake House is a small business and I like to support smaller businesses. Their cakes taste amazing and will not disappoint. I will definitely be using Blue Cake House for my future orders!

I wanted a smaller cake for just me, my husband and our wedding party as we were doing sheet cake for the guests. After sending the pictures, they gave me different options and broke it down by how much each would cost. I loved that they did that! Since I wanted a 2 tier cake, but it was only for 12 people, they gave me the option to make the top tier out of styrofoam to cut costs! They also gave me options on if I wanted them to make flowers out of fondant, or I could bring them flowers and they would put it on, or I could have my florist do it at the venue. This also helped cut cost. I ended up with a strawberry cake with chocolate frosting and it was so delicious! I'm not a big fondant person so I was worried I wasn't going to like that part, but it was honestly so thin and not super sweet which I was very happy about.

There was a sign posted on their door visible from outside saying to email for inquiries. I emailed them on Nov. 3rd, but I didn't not receive a response until Nov. 8th. I would've liked to have been able to try their cakes, but I guess they are very busy and not able to respond to inquiries on a timely manner. It happens.

They have so many sweet and savory options to choose from and drinks (seasonal, too). I got a butter croissant and a pain suisse. Both were so flaky and the laminated layers were EXQUISITE.

This is honestly one of the best bakeries I've ever been to! I was so excited to try them when I…read morefirst saw that they had opened, and I've been coming back ever since. One piece of advice: come early! If you want the full selection of their authentic French pastries, you definitely have to get there earlier in the day because they do sell out, and for good reason. Everything is incredibly fresh, buttery, flaky, and delicious. You can genuinely tell that the baker and his wife love what they do and take pride in the quality of everything they make. My family and I are huge fans, and I also stop by pretty often to bring some of these little treasures to my coworkers. They are always a hit! Some of my favorites are the red berry croissant, the ham and cheese croissant, mushroom, bacon and thyme, spinach and feta, and of course the classic butter croissant. But my absolute favorite is the almond glazed croissant. So good! I also LOVE the maple pecan cookies. Everything I've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and such a treat. I was seriously having withdrawals when they were closed for two weeks, so I'm very glad they're back! Service is fast and servers are very kind and helpful. You really cannot go wrong with anything from here. The pastries are top-notch, the ingredients and craftsmanship are clearly high quality, and it has quickly become one of my favorite local bakeries. Definitely worth waking up a little earlier for!
