I love this place. The customer service was friendly and informative. I stopped by for an iced coffee and for some baked goods. The iced coffee was perfect and the pastry was tasty. I would encourage people to visit this cafe if you are in the area. Additionally, they make wedding/special occasion cakes. You will not be disappointed. read more

Q Baking Corner is located in the shopping plaza as Boiling Crab, Target, Chevron, etc. The parking can be challenging during peak hours because of the popular restaurants surrounding it. Small bakery for grab and go as there are no seats inside. Friendly staff. He said "Everything is good here" as I looked around. Vietnamese Ice Coffee - strong, flavorful yet enough condensed milk for the sweetness and creaminess. I settled on their Carrot Cake Bar. Mmmm...moist, delicate spices, full of texture and crunch from the nuts, raisins, shredded carrots, and a sweet cream cheese frosting with more roasted nuts. Support your local business. read more

We ordered some last minute cakes from DoorDash, and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed everything. It was all lightly sweet and perfect for the Asian palette. Star of the show was the pandan honeycomb cakes. Reheat them in the airfryer for a bit to get some crispy edges and oooh that nice bouncy texture in the middle is so good. I also had an almond cake slice and an espresso cake slice, which were light and mousse-y and just hit the spot. I know this place is known for pate choux, so I'll have to come back and give it a shot! read more

Great family-owned bakery! The owner and her children are very sweet and friendly. Not only do they offer donuts and coffee but they also sell Vietnamese pastries, desserts, and custom order cakes. I've ordered pork pate chaud (it also comes with chicken) and pandan honeycomb cake for family and friends parties and they're always a favorite! Order in advance by phone and you can pay using Zelle or Venmo, it's really convenient. #25-07-09 read more

I haven't visited this place in person, but my mom brought back pate so (pate chaud) from here and upon taking my first bite, I was pretty impressed. It's hard to find a good pate so around here that's comparable to what you can get in socal. I liked how flakey and buttery it was, without feeling greasy. The filling was nicely seasoned, with a hint of sweetness and nice firmness (similar to a xiu mai). I would highly recommend this spot and will have to check it out myself in person some day! read more

Q Baking Corner - Yumm - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

I wish I didn't have to write this review but after receiving multiple calls from the owner telling me that business is hard and that they shouldn't have to refund me for products that they admitted were not good to sell, I am writing this out. I was going to give them an extra star for customer service, but they couldn't even give me that. I ordered for a special occasion some baked goods as a gift through Doordash for a loved one because I've had a decent experience here before (the reason for the two stars) Once received, a portion of my order, 14 macarons were hard, stale and inedible. Because I received my order, Doordash only refunded me the delivery fees. I called the bakery to tell them my experience and a lady who I believe is the owner, Ellen, responded with multiple calls later going back and forth between taking responsibility and giving me a better experience. She finally called back on the last call saying that the macarons were indeed stale but she shouldn't have to refund me because Doordash refunded a portion to me already ($9, when I spent $36), takes a cut, and business is hard. I told her it's not worth me stressing out talking to them and I wouldn't want to support a business that doesn't support their customers. Support other small businesses with better customer service and products that are admittedly edible. read more

Loved my pate chaud from Q baking corner! The family who owns it was very sweet and hospitable toward me, asking if I had been there before and making recommendations. I didn't heed their advice fully and opted for a chocolate croissant, which was just okay. For me, the star of the show was the Pate Chaud! I loved how crispy and flaky the outside was combined with the tenderness and juiciness of the inside. Yum! Honestly, I wish some of that texture could have been ported over to the croissant. Nitpick: I asked for a pork pate chaud but got a chicken instead! read more

Friendly service. Plenty of parking. Accepts credit cards. Donuts were dry and they didn't have any old fashion. $18/dozen. Would not recommend the donuts. I didn't get the twists because they are half the size of twists anywhere else. I should have gotten the other items that others reviewed-pate chuad. read more

I love their creme brulee, banh bo, & the pate chaud. Ordered through door dash & this place did not disappoint. Their banh bo is very chewy and has the perfect sweetness to it. The creme brulee was sweet & had a nice sugar top where it cracks. So good! I haven't had good creme brulee in so long until I ordered from here. Flakey pate chaud, my kids loved it & the meat filling is plentiful. Overall good read more

We've ordered from here on multiple occasions for birthday cakes and my bridal shower cake. I enjoy getting their salted egg and pork floss cupcakes every time I stop by. Why I am giving this business 3 stars is because the owner has poor customer service or phone skills. I called a few times to try to place an order for a cake and each time I was put off by her haughty tone of voice. Owner is decently nice in person but her delivery of phone etiquette needs work. read more

Truly a hidden gem. Stumbled upon this while waiting in line for a table at a nearby restaurant, and we saw a guy before us purchasing 26 pate choud. Since we were eating soon, we only bought 2 to sample, and while ordering, the business owner insists we should buy more while she has stock, and that people come in to buy boxes at a time, as seen by the guy before us. We thought this was just a marketing scheme, but we were wrong because they were indeed THAT good. The pastry puff is made in house and oh so flaky yet soft and pairs amazingly well with either the chicken or pork filling. So after sampling 1 each of the chicken and pork, we bought more to take home. Then after our meal, we brought our family back so they could order more and so that we could also buy the Pandan waffle and Pandan honeycomb cake. The Pandan pastries were equally amazing and I regret only buying 1 waffle. And this time again, we saw a customer purchasing over 20 again! They also sell donuts, but I think their Vietnamese pastries are the true winner. Don't sleep on this place. There's 2 tables inside if you can't wait until you get home to eat your purchases. No public restrooms. But I would go back here in a heartbeat. read more

The pâté chaud skin was flaky but didn't have the taste that made from real butter. The filling was loose ground pork. It was a disappointment. The cupcakes with pork sung on top had some chemical smell and tasted bitter so I had to throw them away. I tried different items but nothing will urge me to come back. They were pricey too. read more

I had high hopes for this bakery after seeing their beautiful cakes on Facebook. I tried to visit last year, but they were fully booked, so I was excited to finally get a chance this year. Unfortunately, my experience with their customer service was underwhelming. While the cake was undeniably cute and the kids loved its appearance, the taste was disappointing. The cream/fondant on the outside was hard, bland, and broke apart as soon as a knife touched it. The cake itself had the texture of a soggy sponge. For the price, I expected much better--especially considering the size of the cake and how it compares to other well-known bakeries. I really wanted to love this place, but the taste and quality just didn't match the visuals or the cost. read more

Q Baking Corner - The cake itself is cute but ... - Donuts Near Me - San Jose, California

Q Baking Corner,is a hidden gem for lovers of Vietnamese pastries. Among their other items available, I personally only come for the chicken and pork pâté chaud (bánh patê sô). These savory pastries feature a flaky, golden-brown puff pastry enveloping a seasoned meat filling. The chicken version is moist and flavorful meatball center, maintaining its deliciousness even hours after purchase. The pork variant is equally celebrated, with patrons noting its rich taste and the pastry's perfect flakiness. Priced at $2.25 each is the reason I am deducting a star, for $2.25 and how little the pate chaud are, it's a bit steep. read more

I chose to place an order here as I had tried a strawberry and vanilla cake at my friend's daughter birthday party last summer and really enjoyed it. That cake was light and fluffy, and the cream wasn't sweet. So I thought, let's order treats here to share with my small team at work and support local & independent businesses. The contact and order were placed via Facebook messaging with the owner Quyen @Mybaking Corner. Her FB page had a lot of pictures but no information on pricing or the menu of what she bakes. I inquired about a simple cupcake order and macs but felt I had to ask questions to get an answer rather than her providing me with her availability/options to choose from. I ordered the following after our exhance 1. A dozen macacrons (half pistachio and salted caramel) / $18. I was not informed these were mini macs. Therefore, I was surprised when I picked it up. They're slightly bigger than a rolo chocolate candy. Compared to other macs I've ordered from independent womyn businesses, this wasn't great but decent. The macaron is soft and chewey, though the shell itself brittles when you bite into it. -Pistachio flavor: it was definitely not pistachio flavor but more lemon tart (given to me wrong). The filling is not a cream lioe filling but more like a jelly/jam texture filling. It was not sweet, though I would have preferred the pistachio flavor as lemon is not a fav of mine. -Salted caramel: Jelly/jam like filling and tasted very caramel-ish and a little too sweet for me since it was a mini macaron. 2. Dozen vanilla cupcakes w/ vanilla buttercream frosting (i dont think she makes chocolate cupcakes as she didn't respond to my question about it / $46. The cupcake texture is like Vietnamese "banh bong lan" (sponge cake), or maybe it is. It's light and fluffy, not sweet at all. The buttercream is very lightly sweetened. I can barely taste the sweetness of it when tasted on its own but good when eaten together,mthough, nothing special. It's quite pricey for a dz simple cupcake. Me experience with customer service wasn't too great with the pick up. I came in to pick up the order on the morning of the rescheduled day, and informed the staff my name and that I was there to pick up my order. The staff looked around and the cupcakes was sitting on the counter so I told her must be mine. She gave me the dozen cupcakes only. I then told her I had a dozen macarons (half salted caramel and half pistachio) as well. She then looked in the glass cabinet and grabbed the container of macacrons. I noticed there were brown and slight yellowish macs so I didn't think of anything and took my order. However, I found later at lunch that the yellow-ish macs were not Pistachio, but rather lemon. If they had labeled the order then there would have not been a mistake. I was quite disappointed as anything lemon is not my favorite for dessert. I FB message Quyen later that day, and she apologized, stating that I was given the wrong order and offered for me to pick up the pistachio macs the next day. I saw the message late and didn't have time to go pick it up. There was no need to try to pick up another day as the macs may not be good anymore. However, I appreciate her flexibility with the rescheduling of my pick up as my meeting at work was canceled so I messaged her the day before to see if I can reschedule the pick up; and for offering to give me my correct order. read more

A coworker introduced me to this place, he brought the most amazing flakey on the outside juicy on the inside pork pate chaud, and it was a crime that I can only eat 1 because it was THAT good.

5 stars for the banh khoai mi (baked cassava cake) 4 stars for chicken pate chaud Pate chaud $2/ Pretty flavorful. I ate the puff pastry 2-3 hours later and it was a little dry, chicken meatball inside was yummy and moist enough. Got 4 bites out of it. I'd eat it again! Banh khoai mi $6/ Had shareable pieces, 1-3 servings depends how you see it lol this was good because it was not too dense, moist and slightly bouncy, and enough of each ingredient to taste. I really really enjoyed this one. It even had a bit of crunch on the edges. Tasted even better than Vietnamese boutique dessert places in oc! Ample amount of American cakes (red velvet tiramisu etc) and traditional Vietnamese pastries, didn't see any banh da Lon at 12pm, but def get the banh khoai mi. They accept card!! Parking kinda sucks cuz so many businesses, service was quick albeit a little interesting lol read more

I did not try them. He dug into the chocolate croissant since he was asked to eat it first because "it's very good." I got crazy and ordered 10 pate chauds. I ordered 5 pork and 5 chicken (round: pork and square: chicken). The pate chaud was flaky and buttery. Both of the filling was very good, savory. I cannot wait to return! Will try their ca phe sua da next time, too. read more

Q Baking Corner has a unique assortment of items available for purchase- American style donuts, Vietnamese desserts and savory pastries. They weren't busy yet around 11am on a Friday; however, since it was the day after Thanksgiving they were already about to sell out of some items (pork pâté chaud) or sold out of some items (chicken pâté chaud). I ended up trying: -Pâté Chaud (w/Pork, $1.75/each, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=1xZplyOtGYJ9Zc5wrlb2fA&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Yum- great version of pâté chaud. The meat filling was flavorful and juicy, and the puff pastry was buttery and flaky- recommended! -Bánh Bông Lan Trứng Muối/Salted Egg & Pork Floss Cupcakes ($2.25/each, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=CPT7jhNogYnBUjMRtyrPRQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Pretty good, but I had a better version from a bakery in this area the other week. The sponge cake was soft and fluffy, and there was a good amount of pork floss. I did like the size of these cupcakes, but there needed to be more salted cheese flavor. I will be back to try more of their Vietnamese desserts, as well as their donuts. There wasn't a dining area available, and some staff were wearing masks. There was a good amount of parking spots at the time, but this plaza can get really busy. read more

Been here a few times for its pate chaud with a choice of either pork or chicken price at $2 a piece and quite large for its size so you're getting the best of the best not the cheap flaky with very little fillings. Staff so attentive and polite which is my go to for its drinks and donuts which is far cheaper than its competitors. They even have macarons price at $1.50 comes with different flavors along with cupcakes, several pieces of various cakes reasonably price. Wasn't too busy this morning had my Vietnamese iced coffee with salted cheese special for $5.75 comes in one regular size cup and two glazed donuts for $1.50 each I was going to buy some pate chaud, but Bro already bought them at le Croissant another hot spot for its famous pate chaud.

We come here for the chicken or pork mini pastries. They're just the right size for finger foods; and the pastry itself is quite flaky. I enjoy eating these. So when we are in the area, we stop by to pick up a dozen. I've tried their ham and cheese, but didn't care for it, so I'll stick to the mini croissants that I like. The older lady who helps us always gives us great customer service. She's friendly and always smiling. The bakery is a small shop, so more so for pick up and go. Support small businesses like this.

Pate Chaud and Salted Egg Pork Savory Cupcakes Wow! If you like flaky and savory Asian pastries, stop by! Mr. Chau's previously occupied this space and now it's Q Baking Corner. The sizes of their Pate Chaud and Salted Egg Pork Savory Cupcakes are big enough to get you full as a snack. The Pate Chaud pork filling is juicy and layers of the pastry are flaky (even after a few days in the refrigerator)! The Salted Egg Pork Savory Cupcakes are very light sponge cupcakes with a salted egg cream center and comes with shredded pork, a dollop of more salted egg cream, and a small piece of a Chinese sausage. I ordered via telephone for same day pick up on Thanksgiving and paid via Venmo (Zelle is another option). The customer service provided was excellent! The staff was very accommodating and friendly. read more

We needed a baby shower cake and after searching we decided to to with Q baking corner. It was one of the best decision we made. I contacted Quyen through messenger and sent her an inspiration picture of what i was thinking of. She got it right away and proceeded with a quote. The whole process was very easy and efficient. When my husband brought home the cake, i was very happy with how it turned out. It was exactly what i had imagined. When our guests tasted the cake, they all asked me where i got it. Even my 80year old grandma, who does not eat a lot of cake, asked for a second serving. We liked her cake so much that i ordered my daughter's birthday cake at Q baking corner also. Quyen is very nice and so easy to work with. The cake tasted and looked great. If you like butter cream cake, you won't be disappointed. The price is fair for the quality and look. Also, her pate chaud (meat pie) very good :) read more

This is my go to bakery for pate chaud. I appreciate how this place have chicken, pork, and even VEGETARIAN options for their pate chaud. This was my first time seeing a vegetarian option so I had to get it for my family. My family is usually pretty picky about vegetarian food, but I didn't hear any complaints from them so it must be a good sign! Be aware though, it seems like the run out of the vegetarian option pretty quickly. I came here around 12pm once and they only had pork and chicken left. I used to be a Vans Bakery fan when it comes to pate chaud, but I've converted to Q Baking corner! For my bf's birthday I decided to order a customized cake from here. The owner was very kinda and accommodating, very quick response from her though Facebook Messenger! The cake came out to be exactly what I wanted. Not only did it look so cool, but it tasted so good! Usually cakes from Vietnamese bakeries are dry, but this was not the case here. It tasted pretty close to Paris Baguette cakes. read more

presentation is an absolute 10/10 the flavors and execution... not very good. vanilla cupcake does the baker know what these taste like? have they tried the frosting? i don't want to be so ruthless expressing my true feelings because this is a small business. i will just say that the frosting on this cupcake was SO SWEET and not good to say the least. the cake itself was moist but didn't taste like anything... donuts they are stale, cold, and not fresh. they were so crusty and below mid that fed them to the pigeons in the parking lot. i'm so incredibly disappointed in these donuts. if there was a pit of donuts lol these are probably the bottom of the barrel donuts. just look at them! so stale! almond cake this cake of a bit dry but there is crème in there to help it. i think this cake didn't taste like almonds. i'm so sorry for the baker but this cake actually tasted like dust. it was really bad. i am sure the owners and bakers are super nice and kind. however, my review is just on the items i got. i will never ever go here again. the quality is not good. i wouldn't even eat it if they gave it to me for free. i dont recommend any of my items. however, if anybody does read this lol please get the same items and let me know what you think because i hate being negative about food and businesses but this is honestly my truth. read more

5 stars for banh bong lan trung muoi cha bong/savory cupcakes with pork floss and salted egg. I purchased 4 of them to try, they were $2.25. I enjoyed them a lot more than I thought I would!

I also got pate chaud which were perfectly fine and good, but the banh bong lan trung muoi cha bong were the star of the show. I'd come back for these.
