I recently picked up a small Lemon cake and a Strawberry cake from Morning My Day in Silver Spring. I was expecting a decent dessert; I wasn't expecting to be reminded that most other bakeries have been lying to us for years. The first bite was a bit of a shock to the system. It's one of those rare "Ratatouille moments" where a flavor profile manages to bridge the gap between Maryland and the legendary sponge cakes of Phoenix Bakery in LA. It's a bit of a trick, really--making something taste like a childhood memory without being cloying about it. The Breakdown: * The Sponge: It's exceptionally light. Biting into it is less like eating a dense dessert and more like biting into a sweetened, high-end pillow. It's airy, delicate, and possesses the kind of structural integrity that only a professional (or a wizard) could manage. * The Icing: A triumph of restraint. Instead of the usual sugary plaster one finds elsewhere, this is a light, white cream. It's sweet enough to let you know it's there, but it doesn't try to dominate the conversation. It's icing with a bit of dignity. * The Verdict: This is how cake ought to be. It's exquisite, technically brilliant, and far too easy to eat in a single sitting. If you appreciate a dessert that relies on craft rather than a massive dose of corn syrup, do yourself a favor and stop by. It's a legit bit of baking excellence right here in Silver Spring read more

I came on a Saturday around 3:00. Easy metered parking (not free on Saturdays) directly across the street. There were still ample baked goods at this time. There are only two tables inside. Both were taken, but fortunately for me the two guys at the one table were leaving as I was placing my order. The two young ladies at the other table were very loud and animated when they were speaking to each other, so that was a bit annoying. Then six or seven people came in to order and he got pretty crowded in that small space. I loved my purple yam pasty. It was soft and fresh. I just wonder why my taro milk tea wasn't purple like the other one posted here. It was just OK; the tapioca bubbles were all clunked together. I had to get a straw to separate them. I will definitely return for takeout or maybe stay if nobody else is there and it's quiet read more

I came to try this bakery after seeing it promoted on Instagram as an authentic Asian-style bakery. I miss the Japanese bakeries I would frequent often when living in Japan a few years ago, and this one definitely brought back those memories. The interior is cute and on display were a variety of Asian-style baked goods and some minimal seating. The couple who runs the store seemed busy but rang me up relatively quickly. I got the ube twist and melon pan. The ube twist was really delicious -- I'd highly recommend it. The melon pan was disappointing; I expect a crunchy cookie crust on melon pan and this one was sticky and soft. The bread itself was super plush and soft and amazing, so it would be great if they could improve upon it with a crunchier cookie crust. The bread items were $3-4 each, so not the cheapest, but I was happy to support a local Asian bakery. read more

So delicious all the pastries are baked in house. I asked for a fresh red bean bun (still cooling on the rack) and they happily packaged one up for me. This is one of the places I used to go all the time when I lived in silver spring, and now that I've moved 30 mins away, I still come back for boba here. Delicious food, always! The family that owns this place is also lovely. read more

I've stopped by this tiny bakery twice now! The first time I got a mochi and red bean bun, which was pretty good - soft bread with a comforting filling. The cheese and pork sung bun I had this last time didn't really have any flavor - normally pork sung is really flavorful, so I was surprised. It was also a bit dry. However, I like the space and the range of offerings. I don't know that I would get a bun again, but I'm very curious about the milk tea! Staff is very nice and the prices are reasonable. There isn't much seating, so plan to take your order to go. read more

I've been here three times and I have always loved this place! The family running this place has always been nice and friendly. I always get an ube cream filled bun here and the cream is always so tasty and fresh! Some of their other sweet pastries and baked good here are also good. I've never really had their salty items though. Their milk teas have always been a good balance of tea flavour and other flavours. Place is small but cute. I think everything's priced well too. I'd frequent this spot more if I was closer to this place! read more

I've been here before with a friend to check it out but this was second time there actually being able to try something! I got the ube/taro cake for his birthday and it was a great hit! It wasn't too sweet & flavorful so everyone enjoyed it. I would definitely go here again for a cake for a special occasion. read more

The tapioca is fresh and super chewy, red bean bun and taro bun were soft and delicious. I will be back to try to more flavors of bubble tea. There are only two tables inside but you can take things to do and sit at the park nearby. Parking out front was easy on a week day morning. read more

This coffee shop is the epitome of cute and quaint. The shop owner was wonderful and asked for clarification on both our drink orders to ensure they were what we wanted. They had dairy free alternatives for some of my favorites, such as milk teas and, of course, coffees and lattes. They had plenty of pastry options available and lots of direct sunlight. They did have some tables inside, but there wasn't too much seating, so this may be more of a grab and go sort of place. Overall a 10/10 in my eyes. read more

I came here after a visit on a weekday lunch to the nearby Smithsonian Zoo after seeing this place on social media. You can find metered street parking on the same street this is located on. This place is tiny; expect to get your food to-go, there's about 2-3 tables inside. The baked goods are freshly made and I could see them being made as I came in. Matcha flower bun 2.5/5, the bread is soft and doughy but there's v limited matcha flavor Mochi red bean leaf bread 5/5, lot of red bean present and mochi is soft, v pleasant to eat Purple yam flower bun 3/5, I slightly preferred this to the matcha flower bun Japanese matcha milk tea (hot) 3/5, this normally comes cold but I asked if the could make it hot which was nice of them. read more

I really wanted to like this place and even skipped going to a solid milk tea place like Kung Fu tea to try this place out but sadly this place did not live up to standard expectation for me. The woman working was very nice, however, it didn't make up for the underwhelming milk tea I ordered. I chose a Hokkaido style milk tea with boba and asked for low sugar. My order came up quickly. Milk tea tasted like it was made from powder and just too sweet for me, even at 30%. Boba was good, fresh and chewy. I also saw that this place carries a variety of Japanese style bakery items but did not try any. I doubt I will be back, but good to know this place is here. read more

I recently discovered nomtastickim on Instagram and her Asian restaurant reviews. I don't like American food, but I've liked everything I've eaten after seeing her Asian restaurant reviews. I picked up three items this morning at Morning My Day. The choices were plentiful and tempting. A coconut braid-not too sweet, just perfect for early morning with coffee or tea, a curry pork sung bread that was absolutely hands down delish-heated it in the oven for 5 minutes and ate it with hot sauce, and a purple yam flower bun-delicious but know that the bread consistency might not be what you're used to? It's a very moist dense dough. The lady had a genuinely welcoming smile. The shop was easy to find. I found parking quickly. There is one table, maybe two. It's more of a carry-out place. I will be back. read more

We love this little bakery! We honestly have come here every week - one day we came twice because we wanted the pork sung bread bun for our toddler. So far, we've had the expresso milk drink, lychee lemon tea, peach lemon tea, mango yogurt slush - we LOVE them all. The owners are always so nice and pleasant. 10/10. Will be coming back. read more

Fresh and delicious breads and sweets. It is small, friendly, priced right, convenient walk from all downtown SS area. Go early to get the whole array. But: It is a hidden treasure in downtown Silver Spring. Why? I've been here for 15 years and have always scoped out Japanese bakeries-- I am a huge fan. It never popped up in my searches. Whatever the issue is, it should be corrected. One should not have to learn about such a great place by accident. read more

Adorable place! I stopped in after getting a haircut next-door and figured I should check this place out. It's a tiny little corner shop located off Georgia Avenue. When you walk in, they have cute little smiley faces on everything and the case of baked goods and a large menu for teas and coffees. Since it was national Boba day, I went ahead and got a black milk, Boba tea, which was great. I also went a little bit crazy with the baked goods and the pork bun, the hotdog bun, a mini cake which was mango, a chocolate espresso cake, and an Oreo cake. I added one of each macaron for good measure. The service was very friendly and I got things wrapped up and little smiley face bags, which were so freaking cute. When I got home, we pretty much liked everything we tried, but I have to say the pork bun was really good and I'm not sure how to describe it other than the pork was , dry in a good way inside, so not like a wet sauce char su bun. My Husband enjoyed the hotdog roll. What the macaroons were gone within a second with having a toddler around. I did manage to taste one of the macaroons and believe me this actually would be what I would drive back there for alone. So soft and the caramel flavor was excellent. They are tiny and bite size and about $1.99 each. The cake slices were delicious with great icing but I am definitely in love with the savory options here. Forward to coming back! read more

This place is so cute! The baked goods are fresh and absolutely scrumptious. I had a matcha boba tea and it was the best I've had yet. I'll definitely be back. Everything is made on the spot and owner brought our beverages and items out personally. Very friendly, very welcoming. read more

Cute Asian bakery shop! They opened about a year and a half ago and it looks like a husband and wife run the shop themselves. All of the Lego and art pieces are made by their son, which is so cute!!! I highly recommend the taro bread and black sesame mochi bread. They are not too sweet for my Asian taste buds and the bread is perfectly soft and fluffy. I also ordered the rose garden fruit tea with pearls and it tastes exactly the way it should. Definitely a hidden gem! read more

I ordered a custom birthday and it completely surpassed all my expectations. I've never tried a basque cheesecake before, let alone an ube one, but this was so delicious; the frosting was so light and the texture was amazing! Wendy was super communicative and helpful and handled my customizations at no extra charge! This cake was truly the highlight of my birthday and I will definitely will be returning (to hopefully try the other flavors) read more

I've been there twice and each time got a bun and a yogurt drink. The mango dragonfruit yogurt drink is where it's at. SO GOOD. I also really like the red bean bun. I also had the red bean paste bun, but there's actually more bean in the red bean bun so I'd stick with that. Many other desserts and drinks also sound good but I've only been in the evening when I'm doing non-caffeinated drinks. I think I like the drinks here better than Sweeteria, but from a desserts POV there are great picks from both that don't overlap so will keep both in my Friday night dessert rotation. read more

Cute welcoming atmosphere! Boba tea made my morning and the pastries were light and delicious.

The pork sung cheese bun really surprised me! I typically don't go for pork sun buns because I find them to be dry but was pleasantly surprised with this one! Bread is moist and the slight cheese flavor adds a nice texture. read more

Cute family owned store ! I love the Japanese milk bread & the cappuccino. The service is friendly and personable ! Love this shop !

Love this place! So nice to have an Asian bakery nearby. The, I think, wife and husband team are quiet and courteous. Always busy making more delicious treats. Fruit sandwiches are such a treat! I always take a full loaf of milk bread home when they have it. I have to say the egg salad sandwich is just perfect! My daughter and I shared 1/2 sandwich the other day and regretted not getting another. Do wish they had more savory options. My toddler loves all the kid-art hanging up and the baker family curtain. I've only gotten one milk tea which was just ok, but that was when they first opened. It's hard not to get one of each thing to take home and share. Love the ube ring and black sesame mochi roll. Really kicking myself for not ordering my daughter's birthday cake from here. The slices looked fabulous! read more

The sesame bun is amazing. Nice to see a small business making it in the big city. The owners are nice, especially the woman, and they have a nice kid. read more

Everything is fresh and delicious! Husband and wife team is super helpful and kind! Drinks made fresh to order!

This place is really small but they have a large selection of pastries. I visited in the late afternoon and there was still a decently variety to choose from. I got about 6 different pastries, everything was great. I also got the Kumquat Lemon Tea which was really refreshing. I'd easily come here again. read more

If you want to get a taste of Japan baking there's no better place in the area! They have melon buns, red bean buns, and their milk teas are fantastic! This will be my main stop for when I want to treat myself or someone else! The service was very good, just know the milk teas can take a moment to make but they are very much worth it. The red bean bun I ordered was like I had gotten it from a bakery in Japan and if you have interest in them... absolutely give it a try! The vibe of the place was relaxed and cozy, with a lot of artwork done by their young son. I couldn't help but smile and look forward to bringing my own son there for a treat. The only items that seemed missing from the typical Japanese bakery are yakisoba bun and curry bun. I am really hoping that they have those from time to time! read more

This was a delicious stop in DTSS. We had a very tasty taro milk tea. I requested they make this half sweet and it was very pleasant to sip on without the overly sweet tang that taro drinks can sometimes have. I also want to comment that the teas were freshly brewed and I love this as many places will just batch brew. Foods I'm a red bean bun aficionado and this one DID NOT DISAPPOINT. The filling was smooth, the bread fluffy and it wasn't greasy or soggy to the touch. Ranking this pretty high on the red bean bun list. We also tried a curry pork sung bread which was also pleasant to eat - imagine tasty curry pork floss filling. We also had a black sesame mochi bread which was packed full of sesame flavor. Other bread/pastry flavor offerings included matcha, coconut, garlic (this looked amazing), along with the iconic hot dog bread. They also had a beautiful tiramisu which we will come back for next time. Support local and give this shop a whirl! read more

Came to this place after spotting someone carrying boba tea and wondering where they got it. I ordered a taro milk tea with boba and thought it was wonderful! Not too sweet, boba texture was perfect, great flavor. Also had a sesame mochi bun which was lovely as well. Very happy to know this spot is in the neighborhood and very excited to come back and try the other baked goods they have. read more

I asked for flower piping on the sides and the top and they were super professional and texted me with sample pictures to make sure they knew what I wanted.
