Mio's Delectables - matcha tart - Bakeries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Brief Summary: - Discoverable on Saturdays in the Farmer's Market near PSU (not sure if this is all Saturdays?) - Lots of pastries to choose from - Not too sweet, so you can eat many in one sitting We visited the Farmer's Market closest to PSU, and there we found out about a dessert cake place called Mio's Delectables. As mentioned in the first bullet point under "Brief Summary," on the first Saturday we were able to visit their store and bought some desserts. However on the second Saturday, we looked and walked around the whole park but they were nowhere to be found. I'm not sure if they arrive at this Farmer's Market bi-weekly, so the second week just happened to be a random day off, I'm not sure. There was a line forming three feet away from the cake's display cases, and after we were lining up, one of the staff members handed us a number card. When they called, that was the time for us to pick and choose the cakes. There were a ton of different cakes to choose from. Some of them were the ones I saw as yelp photos, and some I have never seen them before. A whole treasure trove of pretty cakes to choose from, it was very difficult to narrow it down to the ones we wanted. In the photo, it only contains three, but we have also ordered small cookies and a fluffy soufflé cheesecake. This cheesecake, we ate soon after we bought it. The texture is brittle but moist, so it's not the typical dense and creamy version. (I liked this one because the post-mouthfeel is light). The cookies were nice shortbread cookies; airy and buttery. We bought two different types: original and strawberry, and I liked the original more. I tasted the strawberry flavor in the second one but I preferred the sweetness in the first (the strawberry cookie had a tartier flavor from the strawberry) I don't recall the exact names of the three cakes that are shown in the photo, but there was a coffee chocolate parfait, the cream brûlée, and the grapefruit fruit tart. The three desserts were not too sweet and also not too decadent, so these we slurped up with our spoons like it was nothing. My favorite was the coffee parfait because of the creamy top and the refreshing coffee jelly underneath. I mixed the contents together because on their own they don't have the magic pop. read more

We "sniffed in" at their Saturday farmer's market on the Portland State campus. NOTE: they stick to their take a number system even if only two people are waiting so they will ignore you unless you line up where you are supposed to As a multiple decade baker and recipe creator I am impressed. VANILLA BEAN SHORTBREAD MINI COOKIES: -- nice vanilla sniff and taste -- good semi-firm texture as they should be -- not too sweet, more buttery than sweet -- a legit cookie -- the only con is they are so small it is hard to capture all the sniffs and tastes with such a small portion, but you can solve that problem by buffing two in your mouth at a time RATING = A LAVENDER AND COCONUT SHORTBREAD MINI COOKIES: -- similar to the other -- lavender dominates to coconut, so it gets lost underneath -- may add shredded toasted coconut or find a way to punch up the coconut for more balance RATING = A- They are a fancier bakery with fancier pricing. There were cheaper bakeries here as well, but they were not as good as Mio's. read more

I finally went when they had pastries and not just cookies! Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the cookies are good, too but when I drop by, the pastries were gone...except for today! I had to wait in line, and though it was slow, I thought it was worth it. It was almost 1:1 or 1 group at a time. That's why it was slow. There were so many things to choose from and I overlooked and after checking out my photos again, I wanted to try 4-5 more things that I didn't order (haha). I'll have to go back and try something else next time because they are some-what pricey delectable and I want to enjoy a few at a time instead and appreciate it. 1. Blueberry and blackberry torte ($7). I wished it had a few more berries inside as some parts could use a bit of the tart-berriness to it. Aside from that, it was flavorful, not too sweet, and it had a nice buttery flavor (not full and dense but aromatic). The texture was nice and it was beautiful. 2. (I forgot the exact name because it was long) Chocolate walnut toffee coffee sponge cake ($8). It had a nice balance of various textures! The softness from the chocolate cream, the sponginess from the sponge cake which also had a nice chocolate and coffee flavor to it. Then, the walnuts were lightly coated with toffee and it was right in the middle of the cream and sponge layers. Very good, again not too sweet and loved it. 3. Sakura pound cake ($8.50). I didn't see that until I got closer to the line and wanted to try it since it's spring time! I never had sakura themed food before and it was PRETTY! Aside from the prettiness, I was amazed that the glaze tasted good. Glazes scares me in America but this was slightly sweet and a bit tart that went well with the pound cake itself. There were bits of dried cherries inside and again I wish there was a bit more so the flavors would be more balanced. The poundcake was on the stiffer side but still good. Maybe microwaving it a bit tomorrow before eating the other half. Still, flavors were good. There was a cherry blossom shaped cookie on top and it was soft short bread cookie, delish! I really enjoyed it and the people working there were so nice and friendly! I will be back!!! read more

So worth the wait. I unintentionally stumbled across a display of pretty pastries and tarts at Mio's Delectable stands. From a distance I saw a line forming. As I conversed with the locals and tourist in the line with me, I felt the excitement we all shared for the tarts and pastries. Tarts were delicious as it looks ! Can't wait to go back to Portland one day to have these again. read more

A delicious AND truly delectable (as the name says) arrangement of desserts and sweets. Great for any occasion, especially with coffee or tea. I had some toffee flavored cake, can't remember the name exactly, but it paired well with my coffee. The quality and taste of these sweets were very pleasing to the taste buds and amplified. I highly recommend checking this place out at the PSU Farmer's Market! read more

Paid $8 for a strawberry shortcake that was dry, bland and sad. They want you to wait in line but people crowd the tent and it's awkward.

Been eyeing their booth and baked goods everytime I'm at the farmers market and finally braved up to line up to try some. Supeeer impressed by the attention to details that goes into their every pastries and they have A LOT of pastries. Each one is very unique and individually crafted, as well as packaged. Definitely a lot of love and care went into what they do. Tried their Chesnut Tart and Fruit Mille Crepes. They seem to specializied a little in tarts/tarlets and it certainly tasted that way. Super crunchy base and buttery crumbles. The chestnut was pretty subtle but not in a bad way. You could taste a little bit of the strawberry jam and frangipan in the tart (8/10). The Mille Crepes smelled very refreshing with the fresh cream and fruits but I didn't enjoy the flavors and texture as much as some other mille crepes that I've had (7/10). Overall, a great spot to treat yourself or get some goodies for a special occasion. They're definitely on the pricey end of the spectrum and their pastries are pretty small. But you do get a distinctively different experience with everyone of their goodies. read more

The artistic beauty of Mio's Delectables is unparalleled. Their stand at the Portland Farmer's Market always has crowds with theor exquisite French meets Japanese pastries stealing the show! There is always an array of pastries to choose from, each decorated to oerfecrion. The precision and detail that goes into each delicacy is mind blowing! It's definitely an art form, one that is edible. The colorful fruit tarts and tartlets, using whatever is fresh and in season, are divine and a great dessert if you are entertaining. They look beautiful and each person can choose their flavor, the perfect not too sweet ending to a meal. I absolutely love the Mille Crepe cakes, you know the ones! They are all over Instagram with their dozens of layers of ultra thin crepes piled high with light, creamy fillings to create the perfect slice! They are Heavenly and so worth buying because even during the Pandemic, who has time to make their own! Try the shortbread cookies flavored with lavender or miso & sesame seeds or tart lemon or vanilla bean; each a bite of buttery goodness with a hint of flavor. Sold in packs of 6 little cookies, they are the perfect treat. The individual canele have the perfect caramelized outer crust with rich vanilla custard inside. Just the right amount of sweetness to satisfy. The brightly colored macarons are bite sized flavor bombs! Crisp yet chewy cookies with intense flavored fillings like dark bitter chocolate, green tea, caramel creme, strawberry-raspberry, vanilla and more! There are also some savory options like quiche and croquettes. And if you haven't yet tried the Japanese style soufflé cheese cake, it's a must! To be clear, the items are expensive, definitely a higher price point and smaller size than bakery items at other stands. The unique flavor combinations, balance of flavors, fresh ingredients and precision that goes into making and decorating each pastry, along with love, makes them worth it! read more

My god. These pastries are on another level. First off, just look at them! The attention to detail is incredible. Visually they're stunning and everyone at the PSU farmer's market was stopping by. The line for this place is consistently long, but well worth the wait. My favorite was the peach tart. It was beautifully crispy and flaky. I love that they've combined French baking with their own Japanese flair. This place would be successful in so many other cities. Portland is lucky to have them! read more

In the middle of the farmers market, Mio Asaka is no doubt one of the more popular market attractions. Beautiful fruity and delectable deserts have people waiting in line up to 20 minutes. You have to get there early because they will sell out fast! The cost of these dessert are a little on the pricer side though. Lady at the counter will definitely be assertive if you are too early to order or are out of place in line. Which is understandable. Everyone wants a shoot of the goods! The lady could be a little more welcoming and friendlier though. Looking at these treats, I wanna buy and take a picture of them ALL!! It was so hard to choose!! I wanted to make sure I wasn't keeping the line up so I had to decide very quickly. I did feel a little rushed. But the friendly man at the other side of the counter did advised that they have a weekly email newsletter that comes out so you can decide what you want to get before you get there. Very convenient! You just have to make it before they run out lol Tried some of the fruit tarts, creme caramel pudding, and crepes fruit cake. Again, beautiful craftsmanship. These things are like edible art! The fruit was nice and fresh and all the cream fillings were so nice and light. Not too sweet! The fruit does balance them out. Just go, stand in line, take a million pictures and get your sweet tooth fix! This would be the place to do it... Just don't hold up the line!! Lol read more

Stumbled upon this stand at the farmer's market. I was pleasantly surprised! Some of the most exquisite desserts I have ever seen. I walked passed it numerous times and finally I couldn't ignore Mio's Delectables siren call. After trying their macarons I had to wonder why I even tried to resist. Their fresh fruit tarts are just that, fresh! The fruits aren't drenched in mystery syrup or mushy and preserved. They're almost too perfect to eat. Macarons are bite sized, but pack a lot of flavor. The dark chocolate was one of my favorite macarons, and I don't typically enjoy dark chocolate. Pistachio macaron with milk chocolate comes in second place. Then lastly the green tea with white chocolate ganache. I highly recommend this stand and don't forget to snap a picture of their beautiful pastries. read more

I've tried Mio's a few times. Aesthetically, their desserts are beautiful and have a broad range of Japanese- and French-inspired flavors. I recently got a canele, two tarts, and a macaron. My favorite was the canele which was perfectly caramelized on the outside with a nice custardy center. The macaron was overly sweet to me, and the tarts though they had good flavor were bordering on too sweet. I'll definitely have to keep the sweetness ratio in mind for future purchases. read more

Had to check Mio's booth out after coming across their "Great Big Story" video. How was there such pretty Japanese pastries in Portland that I didn't know about?! Mio seemed really sweet in the video as well, so promptly on the coming weekend my boyfriend and I had to come check out the treats at the PSU Farmer's Market to see how delectable they are. Mio's booth definitely stood out the most with their colorful treats, & she actually had a good variety of selection that you can't find at any other bakeries around! This includes green tea and sweet potato tart-lets, stollen, shortbread cookies with unique ingredients. She also has gluten free options! We sampled the shortbread cookies, & I was actually very impressed by the taste of everything available, even though some were flavors that I don't usually enjoy! I finally opted to try the green tea tart-let (who am I kidding, I already decided on it since I checked out their online menu a week ahead) and since it was such a cold morning, we went to Coava coffee to warm up & eat the tartlet there. The crust was crispy, and had a thin layer of lemon that paired so well with the matcha and added a refreshing taste. It was just the right amount of slight sweetness that both my boyfriend & I liked. Will definitely be returning to try more from Mio soon! read more

The fresh seasonal fig tart looked like it stepped off the pages of a dessert cookbook or foodie magazine. The fresh and delicate figs were overpowered by the mint and the bitterness of the currants. They sat on a layer of light, but flavorless fresh cream. Looks can be deceiving. There are so many more tasty bakery treat options at the PSU Farmer's Market, move along. read more

What a beautiful spread of cakes and pastries, it was difficult to just choose a few. The raspberry choux cream was out of this world. It reminds me of Japanese cake shops back at home.

Mio's Delectables offers an array of unique and beautiful desserts combining French technique with a Japanese touch . Each dessert is impeccable in simplicity and is almost too good to eat. Trust me, its worth it! They have fresh fruit tarts, scones, cookies, quiche, cakes, jelly, and macarons. Every week there is something new to try which is super exciting and fun. I love to get their fresh fruit tart that is made using local seasonal fruits and a crispy crust. I also really enjoy their quiche because of the lovely flaky crust. There is a refined taste with each dessert due to the perfect balance of flavors. Since they operate mainly at the Portland Farmers Market, you can find them either at the Shimenski Farmers Market on Wednesday or the PSU Farmers Market on Saturdays. Come early for first dibs since they make different variations of sweet treat each week. read more

They have the best French Japanese pastries in town, no doubt. The only downside is that they are only available on Saturday at the PSU farmers market. I have tried many different pastries here and they're all very good. I love their Matcha macaroons and their tarts are a must-try! I definitely recommend coming earlier when they first open to get access to as many pastries as you can as they run out really quick. The line is usually pretty long but it moves quickly. read more

I live on PSU campus and look forward to every Saturday so I can buy some treats from Mio's Delectables. The staff is friendly and the desserts are always spot on. So delicious. I will usually buy my mom a few items and take one bite out of each, just to see if she'll like it. She always does. I would say it's well worth the price because you can taste the hard work and love that was put into it. read more

Holy moly, this place is legit Japanese-French pastries! Reminds me a little of Sweets Raku in Las Vegas. I found their booth at PSU Farmer's Market. It was buzzing with patrons! They offer a number of pastries and seasonal items such as scones, quiche, tarts. So cute and beautifully crafted. The seasonal item that day was a Pumpkin Mont Blanc with Kabocha filling,  Apple Confiture, Chocolate cake, and Ganache on the inside. Mouth drool!! They also had some pretty good short bread cookies including this sake-kasu and smoked black pepper variety. Really unique flavors that I haven't seen in Portland area. Check their blog for what they offer that day and what market they'll be at. Can't wait to try all their items! read more

Such a shame! I was visiting the incredible Portland area and just love the PSU Farmers Market. Everyone is so down to earth and friendly with ONE exception. The crew of Mios. To say they were rude was an understatement. I tried to buy some bakery items twice on Saturday and both times they ignored me. There were 3 people working at the time and not one would take the time to assist me. The second time I came back figuring the first was just "bad timing" the gentleman, wouldn't speak to me and addressed another woman as if I wasn't there. Wow, I can honestly say I will never go back read more

Really beautiful and delicious pastries! I tried the nectarine galette and it was fantastic and reminded me of Parisian pastries.

This place is perfect for getting a small dessert. I've gotten the canale and pumpkin tartlet here, and both were delicious. They have the cutest bite-sized desserts here that are decorated with creativity and attention to detail. For example, the apple tart has a baby apple on it. read more

Last weekend, I visited my sisters in Portland. As the little brother, I have the obligation to ransack their fridges and pantries, where I found several packages of Mio's shortbread cookies. Just like any good brother should do, I finished the cookies. But, I wanted more. These little cookies are amazing and addicting. Thank God it was a Saturday and Mio's Delectables is open in the PSU Farmer's Market. I bought one of each single flavor they have on Saturday. Today is Tuesday and those cookies are no more. I'm praying to pastry and waistline God to revive those shortbread cookies (actually I will just call my sister to pick some up and send) and to keep my gym motivation high, respectively. read more

Expensive. Pies are good looking but the taste must be acquired. I brought one of their fancy pies to thanksgiving dinner but it was so small that I had to stop at the grocery store and pick up another cake. The grocery store, costing one fifth what I paid for the fancy pie, was the hit of the night. At the end of the dinner no one wanted to take the fancy pie leftovers, we ended up tossing it. read more
