I brought her a photo for an idea for my bosses retirement party and she nailed it. It was a beautiful cake with a lovely strawberry cream filling. Very well done read more

We have been here a few times over the last few months and the service and products are consistent. The employees are very nice and are so helpful and friendly. We usually get a box of mixed pan dulce. Everything is always fresh and delicious. Prices are still very reasonable. There is street parking available and a couple of public lots nearby. Come by and get some of the best pan dulce in town! read more

Our family has been coming to La Laurita for years, and it's truly one of our favorite spots. Their pan dulce is absolutely delicious--always fresh and full of flavor. You can really taste the love and tradition in every bite. It's a family-owned business, and that welcoming, homey feeling comes through the moment you walk in. The staff is always kind and helpful, making each visit a pleasant experience. We're so lucky to have this gem in our community! read more

They have pan! Fresh concha's, elephant ears, churros, and good selection of bread. They specialize in cake making read more

Panaderia Laurita - Inside store - Specialty Food Near Me - Manteca, California

Nothing sweeter than the taste and bite into a good pan de dulce served with some hot coffee or cocoa. This is our go-to place to pick up a variety, and is not overly sweet. Service is nothing to brag about, but the place seems clean, orderly, and definitely a fan favorite. Parking is a breeze, located on a Main Street so it's easily accessible. read more

My daughter loves the little colorful circle bread. It was my favorite as a kid and now it's her favorite!

My husband and I have been here 2 times and confirmed that the bread they sell is dry. Tasted like day old bread. Maybe it's not, but it really tasted like it. Another thing, whomever the woman tending the counter is, she is NOT friendly at all. In fact, her demeanor alone is enough to deter customers from buying anything. No wonder both times we've gone the store was empty. Scary! We ended up going across the street and bought bread from them, best decision ever! read more

The first time i came here everything was good so i definitely came back a second time. To order a cake they got the whole cake wrong i decided to go back and tell the lady she was rude and just left me there speaking. If i could give this a zero stars review i would definitely don't recommend and i WILL NEVER COME BACK! read more

Placed an $1500 order for 1000 pieces of pan dulce and scheduled to pay in person in adnvanced the day before the event. The morning I was supposed to pay for the event they call me wanting 100% of the cost in cash. This was a company order and made really clear of that prior. Corporations don't pay out in cash. They left me scrambling to find a bakery who was willing to take on the job with less than 24 hour notice. They lost the possibility of continued business with a huge company. Look elsewhere if you want reliability and trust worthy business transactions. read more

We order a cake from Panaderia Laurita for our grandma's 89 birthday and exceed our expectations the cake was delicious and the decor of the cake was exactly what we wanted. Ignore the finger indentation we did that in the process of placing the cake on the table. read more

This Mexican Bakery is awesome! I have a few but this is one is the best. Fresh, delicate and moist. My go to bakery for Mexican pastries and cookies. Donuts are good as well. read more

We were greeted immediately. We bought about 10 pieces of pan. All pan was very good. Reasonable price. Will come back to try the rest of their pan and try their cake for future party read more

My husband loves conchas, I bought him 4, he said these were the worst conchas he ever tasted. The sugar on top flaked off with every bite. The service was ok. The place inside just a bakery with no welcome experience. read more

I highly recommend Laurita's! Their cakes are so delicious with different toppings and bread types and they always make it better than what you are expecting. They can also print a picture in sugar, totally eatable. Love it! read more

Panaderia Laurita - Chocolate cake - Specialty Food Near Me - Manteca, California

If I could give it a zero, I would! This place has racism against it own people had I not seen it live myself. I wouldn't have believed it. Too bad I didn't have my phone to record it. No, my order: God forbid, you get home thinking the order was right and it's wrong. You call to tell them and...they, the ladies, attack you like a thief. I reside in the Bay Area but it seems my family likes this less than desirable bakery where all the ladies here have an attitude. I'm thinking they're all part of the family run operation. Anyways, my first and last experience here. I'll happily drive elsewhere to get fresh baked goods and happily thrashing what I purchased because some pieces were not what I ordered. Not worth a second stop. If you go there, you're at a risk of paying higher prices and getting TERRIBLE service with an attitude. Your choice. read more

20 hours ago NEW Lost a Customer!!!! really bad customer service could be more polite I understand that every one has a very long day. As the person behind the counter taking orders there's ways to sound professional and not rude read more

Another Manteca gem SAID NO ONE EVER. I'm new to the area (as many are). Is good customer service and quality food at reasonable prices too much to ask for from this city?! This Panaderia is not flexible when it comes to cakes. And on top of that their cakes are overpriced. All I want is to support small Hispanic-owned businesses but it seems like our gente finds business annoying. As soon as I walked in the girl at the counter seemed so annoyed. I found a place in the Bay Area that will make the cake the way I want and at $50 less. Let that sink in. read more

I purchased two cakes and I came to pick them up and the representative was so rude, I called her rudeness and she said she would not give me the cakes I already paid for. So I will definitely not recommend this place at all. Cops were involved in the incident too. I have never experience racist behavior from one of my own read more

Horrible customer service. Been there twice, the first time I thought whatever it happens. This second time, work on customer service and pretend to not be miserable. Bread is just ok read more

Customer service is the worst! The girls that work there are not friendly at all. We ordered a cake, and when we picked it up, it was not what the picture showed. The girl there shrugged her shoulders and didn't say a word. Do not recommend, and will never return to this bakery. read more

I almost always get my favorite pastries and bread here. They're pastries stay freah longer then any other place I've gone to in Manteca. read more

Superb. We ordered a tres leches cake for my mom and it was beyond delicious. No dry spots and at great price. Their fresh bread is always good too. But for that you need to visit early since they run out quick read more

Nice selection of pan dulce, love the tropical flavor options along with the classics. We came in mid afternoon and all of our bread was still nice and soft. One of us has a peanut allergy & I appreciated that the nut breads were covered. Cakes looked delicious too. read more

I'll order a cake for my wife's birthday. Pick up was a quick the staff is helpful. The cake strawberries and cream Wow the best cake in town. And the Pan dulce delicious. Thank you read more

This place advertises that they open at 6am and was waiting outside until 620. the employee wouldn't even look at me as I knocked on the window. Customer service was very poor, will not be back read more

I come all the way from Concord to buy their pastries and order Birthday cakes from them. EXCELLENT!

First time here looking for a tres leches cake and wow, terrible customer service!! . When I asked the worker a question she answered annoyingly and rolled her eyes. Absolute turn off. I ended up going across the street to buy one. Saddened to see so many other bad reviews on here mentioning the same thing. read more

Wish there were more Panaderia's near Livermore. But we always stop here for goodies when we are in the area. Everything is very fresh and very tasty. I have no clue what the names of the pastries/cookies are so I point at the ones I want. I like the crescent shaped sweet sugary bread one that has pink bread in the middle. I also like the oval shaped one that is easy to dunk in my coffee. Their cookies are really good too. Large and very filling. The one with sprinkles is my favorite. Dude likes the chocolate chip one - its crumbly like a shortbread. They take ATM/Debit cards but there is a very small fee. The people here are very nice and patiently answer all my questions. read more

Panaderia Laurita - Very fresh and so good! - Specialty Food Near Me - Manteca, California

Manteca has the best Pan Dulce at Laurita's Bakery! I come here super early on the weekends and get my fresh pan dulce from here. I just ordered a cake for my Son's 6th b-day. I had one chocolate layer, one Vanilla Layer with Strawberries and Banana filling. The fruit was fresh considering it was already Winter. The design was beautiful and they had it made on time! They also accept Visa and Mastercard! Going to try the tortas next. Can't wait! read more

The bread is good - service is shitty, so this is the million dollar question for most of us, whether or not we go back. If you go across the street to La Altena across the street you'll find a solid selection of Mexican bread, for the same price. Great taqueria too! read more

I've gone here since I was little and they never fail to disappoint. My favorites are the wedding cookies and the chubby cones with custard (forgive me I don't know the name lol) You can also never go wrong with churros or conchas :) read more

Bread is okay, what makes this place worse is the customer service! It's like your doing them a favor buying bread there. Rather drive but more for better quality bread & customer service. read more

Very tasty pan dolce there the best in the area I drive up from Ceres to take my family in Tracy. You can't go wrong here!

Bakery for "all occassions" unless you are white and ask for a very simple 8 inch cake with a 6 inch cake 2nd layer on top with plain whote frosting. Lol. Nope. Minimum $160 and feeds 60 people. A BAKERY cant make a simple small CAKE? When they make wedding cakes? Youre telling me you cant make a cake that im capable of making at home very easily and then take my money? Lol. read more

I love the cakes at this place, but the girl that works the front, she wears glasses she always has the worst attitude, rushes people & makes dirty looks and acts like asking questions is a bother. I will not go back I tried to give her a chance but every time I went in her attitude stinks. Do better read more

After having a huge meal at Johnny's, we saw that this bakery was open and I knew I wanted a Mexican sweet roll with my morning cafe con leche. God bless the fiance who did a semi-uey so that I could get some morning grub. We got there just before they closed last night but the woman at the counter was friendly. I got two rolls and two sweet empanadas (one sweet potato and the other strawberry). When we got home last night we were greeted with no electricity so I forgot the pastries in the car and thought we'd have sweet hockey pucks this morning. No sir-ee! I popped those babies in the oven, wrapped in foil, and a few minutes later we had warm rolls and empanadas that were delicioso! I know other Yelpers have had the experience of going to a bakery at the end of the day and encountering old/hard pastries. They were soft and fresh enough last night to eat but we were stuffed. This morning they were just as good but shivering (since they spent the night in the car) - and at $2.45 (with the Ice Cream Tea Cookie last night) a bargain. Thanks Laurita, we'll be back! read more

They place seems clean and the pastries are yummy . The only downside is that the customer service is a hit or miss . I've been there a handful of times and it's been different girls working there . One of them seemed friendly and the others seemed irritated. read more

Pan is good but counter workers are extremely unfriendly. They wouldn't crack a smile if their life depended on it. Maybe they don't want to engage lest we find out what really goes on in that big back room. read more

I got the Guava Tres Leches cake for my boyfriends birthday and it did not disappoint. I'm not a big fan of this particular cake and even I thought it was tasty. read more

Bought a Rosca today and the bread was hard and all sugar! I love pan dulce and was excited to try this out and was strongly disappointed!
