I had high hopes for Puffect Bakery, but unfortunately the macarons were really underwhelming. We tried a variety of flavors including Thai tea, raspberry, mango, cookies and cream, strawberries and cream, coffee, and earl grey. Across the board, they were pretty tasteless and bland. Most of them just tasted like sugar with only a very subtle hint of flavor. Out of all of them, the coffee had the "strongest" flavor, but even that was still quite mild. On top of that, the experience wasn't great. The owner came across as rude, which made the visit even less enjoyable. Overall, between the lack of flavor and the service, it wasn't worth it for me. read more

We ordered red velvet with lemon curd filling and it was delicious. I was able communicate very well with Cherie through the idea process to the execution. Couldn't have asked for a better place to order a special custom cake for a special friend. Thank you for creating this gorgeous cake and loved the box it came in as well. Will be back to try the cafe items next time. read more

Finally got the chance to stop by since I always drive by and wondered what kind of product they have. Service was super friendly and helped me pick out macarons for a birthday gift, they were each $5 totaling to $30 for a box of 6. The character macarons are adorable and I'll definitely be back to try different flavors for myself. Side note: they were taking all types of donations for the fire victims, helping out the community. read more

NGL their cupcakes taste good - just the right amount of sweetness by Asian standards is not too sweet. They also look good, very presentable. But they ARE pricey. The cupcakes are standard sized with regular amount of frosting, and for about $4-5, I think is a bit expensive - unless you have deep pockets, of course read more

I will never go there again. They do not like my race. They do not like me. They treated my daughter who tried to order me a birthday cake the same way. If you are not that race, do not even try to buy cupcakes because they don't care to sell them to you. The ones I bought, while they gave me dirty looks, were a week old and stale. Worst bakery in this state. Yuck! read more

I'm impressed with their macarons and love their cute name. The macarons have a nice soft and chewy texture, and you can taste the cream well. I had their macarons from a house party, and they made for an aesthetic and tasty touch to the dessert table. I've only eaten macarons a handful of times, but the ones from Puffect made me realize how good they can taste. The way that the macarons neatly sit in their boxes show that the staff puts care in their product, so I'd also give points for good service to them. read more

Ordered floral cupcakes this past week for a coworker's birthday and was not disappointed with how nice they looked. The staff was very helpful especially with me calling at the end of the day and they helped me place the order even after the store closed for the day for an order just 4 days in advance and they looked amazing. Will definitely return for future custom orders for events. read more

I came here to get a quick desert for a friends birthday and was pleasantly surprised by all their options and how you can do custom orders and our designs on the macarons!

I found Puffect Bakery while browsing Google Maps to see what was around Aroma Craft Coffee. I was expecting a typical bakery and not a sweets tailored experience. I wasn't too big a fan of sweets, so I struck up conversation with the worker and ordered her favorite, the chicken pesto panini. I wasn't expecting too much, but there were a few tastes I noticed The chicken pesto panni was a fair size for a sandwich. I don't think it is a commonly ordered item, since the panini press had to be plugged in and heard the microwave going shortly after. I have to admit, I was pretty impressed with how good the pesto chicken tastes. The rotisserie chicken was moist and tasty, unlike the Costco ones that are overly salted. The pesto and ingredients inside were great too. My only disappointment was the bread, which didn't taste stale but didn't taste too fresh either. It was fairly dry and crumbly. Overall, great experience at Puffect. I was greeted once I entered, conversation to order was easy, and it was a quiet, chill afternoon. read more

It was hard to restrain myself and I ended up eating it all in two days. I like macarons okay? Service was fast and patient while my partner and I was deciding.

This bakery is truly something special. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the warm aroma of freshly baked treats and the kind smiles of the owner. It's the kind of place that makes you feel right at home and they're eager to fill your taste buds. The ambiance is so pretty and classy when you walk in with her decorations. The cheesecake is hands down the best and my favorite; very creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced with a buttery crust that melts in your mouth. The macarons are delicate, flavorful, and made with such precision, and the cupcakes? Absolute perfection--moist, fluffy, and topped with the most heavenly frosting and floral decorations. Extremely pretty and elegant! What really makes this bakery stand out is the owner. She isn't just running a business--she's sharing her passion with the community. You can tell she pours her heart into everything she makes, and her care and dedication shine through in every detail. She's built more than just a bakery; she's created a place where people come for her baked goods to share for any event, a long day at work or just to take some delicious treats to your loved ones. I can't recommend this place enough. If you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. You'll not only find incredible treats but also a place that truly cares about its customers and community. Cherie will go above and beyond to make sure your order is up to perfection and always asks how everything comes out! read more

I absolutely am horrified of the quality. They actually think this burnt thing is edible. Nowhere does it look like a bubble waffle. More like burnt eggs clumped together :( read more

Randomly stopped by this place while waiting for our food at the Curry Pizza Company, and I don't regret it! We got the raspberry macaron, thai tea macaron, and samoas cupcake. The raspberry and thai tea were good, although the thai tea flavor could've been a little bit stronger. The highlight was the cupcake. My boyfriend usually doesn't like cupcakes, but he said this was the first time he's ever liked one haha. The cupcake was surprisingly the right amount of sweet, and the frosting was good. The cake was very moist like a cake pop consistency. I would definitely get this cupcake in bulk if I ever throw a party! Ambiance is nice. It's a cute little bakeshop with few spaces to sit inside. read more

Years ago I had a not so great experience at this cafe. I believed we ordered macarons and we checked in for a free tea. The tea ended up tasting like slightly bitter grass water and the macarons were all terribly crumbly, despite eating them immediately from the box. We came back here since we were waiting for our pizza across the street. Unfortunately when we came in, the "top menu" was not available, so there were no drinks for that day. We got the salted caramel cupcakes since we were craving a sweet dessert. The icing and salted caramel drizzle was super yummy on top, but I felt that the amount really overpowered the size of the actual cup cake itself, which was just okay. Maybe the stars will align one day and puffect will finally be perfect to me. read more

I got 6macarons. Great flavor! Definitely recommend earl grey and taro. The Thai tea has good faint but good flavor. I'd go back for if my macaron cravings strike again! Parking is easy in the plaza. read more

I preordered some food and drinks online for a Saturday pick-up, so it was super easy when I arrived to get my items since I already paid online and selected the items. There was a separate section for pick-up outside at the EZ-up tent and there was no line for my pick-up timeslot. I ordered a vanilla cupcake with strawberry jam filling and two drinks: hibiscus butterfly pea tea and dalgona coffee. They were decorated for a themed event and tasted just as great as they looked! Plenty of parking in the plaza. They do special orders for holidays and events, so keep an eye out on their website for those! I missed out when they had mochi donuts, so I'm hoping they come back again next year! read more

From the ambience and style of the bakery to the customer service- I am always greeted kindly and genuinely. I have been coming here for many years now and the quality of all the desserts and drinks are outstanding all around *every* time I go. Always fresh, presented so beautifully and thoughtfully placed. The macarons and s'mores cupcakes are a family favorite! I have placed many personal/company orders through Puffect and they come out stunning each order. They always do a fantastic job and I always recommend anyone in the area to come here. So if you need a sweet treat for yourself or celebrations, they got you covered! read more

My husband use to work near by and I would always pass by but never got the chance to go until recently. I knew I wanted macarons and boy do they have a lot of options to pick from. Service was okay, they didn't seem to friendly. I felt like I was bothering them for stepping into the store. I got the s'mores and horchata macaron as well as 2 cupcakes! Everything was delicious and not too sweet. My husband doesn't work near by anymore and i would probably be able to go elsewhere for these products with better service. read more

I ordered the Lunar macarons back in February, very pricey but very cute. I didn't eat any because they were so cute, but the folks that tried it seemed to like it. Why would I give them 2 stars then? I had tried to contact them via Facebook back in May to ask about a cake for my son's first birthday, no response. I finally walk into the bakery a few days later to see if I could get a cake for him (support small local business, right?) and I got the biggest attitude from the woman behind the counter. She wasn't friendly, she wasn't nice, just asking for a cake for the upcoming weekend was somehow, annoying her. I get it, you're busy, you didn't even let me finish my inquiry before you wrote me off as "no, we're completely booked." She could have been nice, but it felt like they didn't even care for my business and I was a bother just asking her. I walked out with the bf that day and we both agreed we would never walk back in. read more

I stopped in on Monday 8/12/24 to pick up something sweet. Ordered 2 cupcakes. 1 vanilla with strawberry frosting and the other one was salted caramel. Paid $9.50 for 2 cupcakes. When I tried them both were super dry and crumbing apart. Flavor was super mid. For the price of these cupcakes, they should at least be fresh and not old and falling apart. Wouldn't recommend this bakery. Such a shame since I live less than 5 mins away. read more

I'm so happy this placed hosted an event for ARMYS in celebration of BTS Jin's birthday! They had a Jin themed menu of desserts and drinks. The macarons were so cute! They made a KORE, RJ, and ARMY bomb design. A single macaron was $3.50, but $9.75 for all 3 macarons. Of course I had to order all 3 macarons because they were just so cute. I also had the "This Night" drink which was pretty much a white hot chocolate with lavender. This drink was sooooo delicious. At first, I feared it would be too sweet (which it was) but it definitely tolerable. I like that they use real white chocolate as well. I will most likely be coming back to try other goodies they have :) #happyjinday read more

Ordered for a Birthday Party Food: Placed in order, same week, for 2 dozen macaroons in assorted flavors. The macaroons were not uniform in size but they were all delicious and the perfect texture. Gone within minutes. My favorite was the dulce de leche. Service: For a same week order, they were quick to respond and confirm the order. They are open on Sundays and very professional. Location: In the industrial area of Walnut. You wouldn't expect to find this charming bakery among all the industrial buildings. A lovely hidden gem. Notes: They do party dessert tables and custom wedding cakes. I would revisit to try their other pastries. read more

I'm an average Joe. A dozen donuts from the local shop kind of guy when it comes to sweets. It was my nephews birthday, I thought I'd surprise him with something special. Kids like cupcakes, seemed like a good bet. Yelped and this was suggested. Upon entering I saw cupcakes with no prices or description. As I was trying to figure things out a counter person came. I kept her waiting for a bit so I thought what the heck and said, "a dozen... you choose." What I should have said is, "how much are these cupcakes?" Well dumb me, it rang up to $42. Now mind you, I'm an average Joe. If I get the fancy donuts, it goes up to $14 a dozen. But what is done is done and I take my cupcakes. Now at $3.50 a piece I'm going to expect a lot. Well, it wasn't much to look at, half didn't look any fancier than the kind you by at the local supermarket. When I took a bite, the whipped swirled topping tasted like straight butter. The cupcake was drier than expected. Maybe my pallet isn't refined, but I'm going to say a $1.25 fancy donut beats these cupcakes. They're fresher, tastier, and cheaper. Granted the cupcake box was nicer. Just to be fair, because you can't compare apples to oranges, err cupcakes to donuts. I Yelped for other cupcake bakeries. One showed the next town over. It was about a dollar less and definitely looked like something I couldn't make. Can't vouch for the freshness, so I'll just have to visit. It's a small mom and pop type of place, which we should all support. So I hate to knock it, I mean look at all those Yelp stars. Must be me, this average Joe. As always, let me know what you think~ read more

Their chocolate cupcake is hands down the best cupcake I have ever had. 10 stars. In love!

I don't write reviews often because I have little time to spare (tells you how motivated and upset I was about this experience), and I also hate to write less than stellar reviews, but I do want to share my honest opinion for those that are interested in the macarons. I'm sad to say that I am disappointed in the dozen that I bought. They look nice, and the cookie texture and crunch was fine, but the flavors were non existent. I didn't bother to ask what was each flavor was before bringing it home because I was so confident that I would be able to tell each flavor apart by taste. Five of us (me, mom, aunt, sister, friend) we were so excited to try each flavor but not of us could distinguish one from another. The ONLY one that I was able to define flavor in was the one with cinnamon. It was ok, not exceptional, I was only able to taste cinnamon, and I don't know what was the intended dessert profile. So if you're going to pick a flavor I guess pick this one. Could not figure out which one was Earl Grey. I'm so sad...$30 bucks pretty much down the drain. Also, it was a gift for my sister's Master's graduation so I'm also a bit embarrassed that I gifted it to her. I've seen from Yelp photos that they make cute character macarons. So if you're just looking for something to floss on social media, it's fine. If you are looking for flavor, I urge you to look somewhere else. (notice that we didn't event bother trying the remaining four. I didn't want to go through any more heartache.) 1 star for texture/crunch/cinnamon. 1 star for nice packaging. Folks, please write honest and accurate reviews so others can truly benefit from them. Hope this can be useful to you. read more

This is the cutest little cafe. The macarons were delicious. The strawberry cheesecake was to die for. And the drink had the perfect amount of sweetness for my liking.

Cute little place with plenty of parking outside. Came here mid afternoon and they only had a few cupcakes left. I got the salted caramel, s'mores and red velvet. The cupcakes were really good. They were very moist and not too sweet. I've been wanting to try the cream cheese garlic bread to see what the hype is all about and saw that they had some. It was good but I personally feel that it's over hyped. They also have many flavor macarons, waffles, sandwiches, custom cakes, drinks and more to satisfy your sweet tooth. I will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu. read more

I am so over trying to buy an egg waffle from this place. I've gone here 3 times. I've attached proof of my visits. The first time I went, the girl said sorry they don't have it and to call ahead next time. I was like ok, it's later in the day I came at 3pm. Tomorrow, I'll come in earlier. I came the next day at around 1pm, spoke to an older lady who I assume to be the owner, she said they are busy with Halloween events and do not have time to make egg waffles. I was like ok, I'll come in the next day when they open. On the 3rd time, a younger girl, told me they're too busy to make egg waffles. Maybe they shouldn't advertise they're selling egg waffles and take it off their menu. I also feel like I am bothering them when I come in like other yelpers mentioned. The cupcakes are overpriced at $4 and it's a little bigger than a mini cupcake, not worth it and tasted dry. The Nutella macaron was good but at $3, maybe $1.50-2 is fair. If I go back, I wanna try their smoothie and maybe a sandwich but I feel like it could be a burden for them to make it. Owner, if you're reading this you need to make some changes. If you are short staff, hire one more person or find another location with cheaper rent. I feel like there's no excuse as to why you are refusing to make an item. Except for the fact that they're the owner and they make the rules. Do as you please since you're the owner, but be warned, I will take my business elsewhere. I know I didn't spend much money, but other Yelpers will read my review. read more

Specializing in custom made macaroons and also cakes and cupcakes. This is one bakery slash cafe one must visit to try the cutest macaroons you've ever seen. Or at least I've ever seen. These circular treats come out of the fridge once ordered so they need a little time to unthaw. Most of the treats are flavorful but some don't live up to the taste they're featuring.I ordered a Samoa cupcake and that really lived up to my expectations of a specialty cupcake. One can also customize macaroons for any future events one may have. The atmosphere is perfect if you love white noise. It's as silent as a courtroom handing down a tabloid like verdict. Plenty of nice plush seating but not enough to keep me there and hearing myself chew. The service was semi friendly and expected a little more from a non chain bakery. And that's my take on this not so Puffect bakery slash cafe that needs a little more life to it. Peace... read more

Puffect Bakery Cafe - Macaron flavors! - Desserts Near Me - Walnut, California

After leaving Hsi Lai Temple, I made a quick pit stop over here for the macarons. I was here four years ago when I had first learned about Puffect Bakery Café from JustKiddingFilms. Both the regular macarons and character macarons were pretty decent the first time I was here. I was hoping that maybe four years later, the macarons might have gotten better. Sadly, it didn't, especially, the Penguin one. I got three macarons ($2 each): Two regular ones: Earl Grey and Horchata and one character macaron: Penguin in vanilla flavor. The Early Grey and Horchata were both good. The shells were soft and stayed intact when bitten into. You can slightly taste the flavors of the Earl Grey and Horchata. Though, I wished the flavors were a bit stronger and creamier. However, the Penguin tasted awful! It looked cute, but when I bit into it, it was still hella frozen in the middle! Furthermore, the shell shattered all over after the first bite and it looked hollow inside. I ended up throwing away the rest of the Penguin for a fear of possible chipping my front tooth. So bad! Drink: The $2.89 Iced Jasmine Green Tea was delicious and refreshing with 50% sweetness. I will say, the drinks here tasted better than the macarons. Service: The gal behind the counter was sweet and nice. Overall, it saddens me to reduce this down to another star. Is it worth the return? For a grand total of $14 (plus taxes and tip) spent on three macarons and a drink, nope. I'll stick with Laduree, 'Lette and Concerto (Koreatown) instead. read more
