Was exploring Flushing eateries when I came across the Apollo Bakery. What not to like about the…read moreblack sesame bun? Also the matcha red bean bun that I went on to try?! Not too sweet desserts that go well with tea big time. I like their version of the classic sweet topping bun with a filling. The lightly sweet crumbly cookie-like topping on the fluffy bread-like bun filled with red bean paste was pretty good! I noticed that they also had mini mooncakes of various flavors. Be sure to see what you might want to try at the Apollo Bakery if you happen to be in Flushing. The associate at the bakery was tactful and patient when ringing up my order. A small bakery with some unique desserts.

The maroon awning is Apollo Bakery. It's on the same block as Sheraton Hotel. As you can see, it can be easily missed when walking by.

I've been seeing a couple of reviews about their taro paste cream puff and knew I had to try it because I love a slightly sweetened dessert and I also really like taro paste. I would definitely go back and get it again another day. The Taro paste is added to the center very generously and the whip cream is nice and light with only a hint of sweetness. On top of this, the bread was not overly heavy and had a nice crunchy top. The service was very quick like any other Chinese bakery. I will be back another day to try more of their items.

Since I enjoyed the bread, I've gone back several times. Bought a day cake and love it too since it's not too sweet. Service is fast. Looks like your normal Asian bakery but with more variety. You can buy a gift card with some perks.

No line here but everything was nicely displayed. L didn't want anything at first but he picked out a ham and cheese croissant and I got 2 egg tarts. We ate them hrs later but surprisingly they were pretty good. I liked the egg tarts. Different than the usual Chinese bakery. The egg tarts were very flakey, more like a French bakery than Chinese. The ham and cheese were flavorful, I only had a bite but I think they used maybe cheddar cheese and hopefully not American. I bought more egg tarts my second visit. Prices were okay.. cheaper than the chain bakeries that are so overpriced that doesn't even taste good. Next time I might try one of their pretty cakes.

Bravo for Johnny Lo for doing his research! As a jack of all trades, their quality might not always hit the highest mark, but it's pretty decent. Honestly, I can't complain much because their variety is what keeps me coming back for more. There's something for everyone, and that's a win in my book. When I'm in Flushing, this location is my go-to spot. Affordable, cheap, and super delicious--what more could you ask for? I'm a huge fan of their drinks too; they're cheaper than the ones you'd get at boba stores and still hit the spot. All in all, Rainbow Bakery is a solid bakery.

They have all the baked goods that the bigger stores have, probably made at the one further down on Main St and delivered here in the morning. With the heavy foot traffic through here, I'm sure the baos here turnover rather quickly. I love to have a char siu bao for breakfast at the office in the mornings. A quick 30 sec in the microwave is all you need. Sometimes, I'll have a ham & egg or a 4 petal hot dog & bacon bun for variety. If I'm feeling the sweet tooth, a pineapple, egg custard bao or tart is the way to go.

For the filling, you get to choose 2 or 3 fillings, but we got 2 fillings to try out. We got the mango pomelo & strawberry with rice powder for the dusting. They accept cards unless it's $5 but they do not take discovery cards. Super fresh and not overly sweet, which I was surprised by. I never knew there was another food hall in the area and there were a lot of good food stalls. Even good coconut was there too. Next time I need to check out the other stalls

The plain could be a little "eggier" for a richer taste. The texture was fine, but the "mango taste" reminded me of artifical mango candy. Both flavors were light and fluffy.

The iced milk tea however was really bad. It tasted like cheap tea mixed in with a bunch of sugar. The flavor was so bad that we ended up just throwing it out.

Ambiance (3/5): The store looks outdated and not the cleanest but there is a decent area to sit and eat with a bunch of tables.
