I recommend coming early; there's this phrase that goes the early bird gets the worm but in this case the early bird doesn't have to stand in a super long line... but also you really shouldn't be coming here on a weekend unless you're cool with getting in line for a while. But, can you really blame them they really are the best that's why the line is long. The donuts are super hot fresh and delightful no matter what flavor you get. I got original glazed and maple donuts and oh my God the best. This donut shop is cash only so be sure to get your cash, however they do have an ATM in the back but I recommend always having cash on you. The Ambiance is what it is, it's very simple it's a kitchen that cranks out Donuts it's not glamorous. I love the little sit down bar area though too! Old school vibes.

Cash only. Waited in a long line just to bite into these greasy donuts. Sad. We couldn't eat em

We got half a dozen of nearly all the flavors and they did not disappoint. Ube, black sesame, cookies n cream, matcha, glazed, and dark chocolate (tasted more like milk chocolate though). Soft, chewy, warm, and the glaze was the perfect amount of sweetness for the Asian palate, which is to say: NOT TOO SWEET; the highest compliment, of course.

It had a crispy exterior with a soft, chewy mochi center, coated with just the right amount of cinnamon sugar. It was the perfect sweet treat after the savory poke bowl. Overall, the meal was satisfying, the portions were generous, and I would happily order from MoDo Hawaii again whenever I'm craving fresh poke and a delicious dessert.

We used to shop and order our cakes from Dick's bakery, up until they burnt down. We loved their famous burnt almond cake. When I heard that Peter's makes an excellent burnt almond cake, as well, I knew that's where I wanted my birthday cake to come from. When I opened the door, to enter the bakery, a fresh smell of baked goods and sweets hit me in the best possible way. It smelled like fresh maple glazed donuts. I love that smell. We were warmly greeted by the staff. It wasn't busy at all, so we took our time looking for other sweets to purchase. They found our pre-ordered cake and they did a wonderful job decorating with a cute pumpkin on the top. We also chose an apricot danish, a maple bar and a raisin snail. The prices were very affordable and reasonable here. I really loved how all the pastries and cakes. were displayed in their cases. Everything looked amazing. They even sell fresh loaves of bread and rolls. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We were immediately helped with a smile. I love the old fashioned vibe in here. Both pastry and cake boxes were tired up with sting, to properly secure our box. We paid for our goods and hurried home to try a few of them. The maple doughnut was good. I loved the icing better than the doughnut itself. The apricot danish was delicious and so soft. The apricots on the top were not overly sweet, which I prefer. The pumpkin burnt almond cake was so good. The cake was so soft and light with a wonderful pumpkin flavor that reminds me of fall. The frosting and custard filling paired perfectly with the pumpkin cake. The caramelized almonds covered the entire outer cake and offered a nice flavorful crunch. The whole thing works perfectly. I didn't even know you could get the burnt almond cake in pumpkin. A huge thank you to my friend John D. for letting me know about this limited time fall flavor. We will definitely be back for more soon.

On September 4, 2026, I ordered and paid for my mother's 96th birthday cake--a burnt almond cake--a day in advance. When I arrived to pick it up, the line was very long, and the wait took far too long. Unfortunately, the cake itself was unbelievably dry and crumbled with every bite. After recommending Peter's Bakery to family and friends for many years, I was embarrassed to serve this cake. Sadly, it took away from a very special birthday celebration. I hope Peter's Bakery improves both its customer service and the quality of its cakes.

I highly recommend this place! I was in a panic because I planned my son's birthday last minute. I called two other bakeries to see if they would be able to do a cake, they both rejected me and said that it was too last minute. I called Q BAKING CORNER and they saved my son's birthday. Quyen helped me over for phone. She first asked if I could send over a picture to see if she would be able to do it. She messaged right back and told me it is doable and it will be ready in the afternoon the next day. Sent me a picture of the outcome and I was blown away! She did such an amazing job on my son's birthday cake. Quyen worked her magic and put a smile on my son's face. Not only was the service was amazing, the quality and work that they put in it is immaculate. The cake tasted so good too! I asked for strawberry flavor and the cake was so moist and delicious. I couldn't thank Quyen enough! 10/10 recommend. read more

Q Baking Corner offers decent quality baked goods, but I have some reservations. While the taste is satisfactory, I can't shake the feeling that the prices don't quite match the size of the items. It's a bit disappointing when you expect a more substantial treat for what you're paying. If you're not too concerned about portion sizes and are mainly after the taste, then this place might still be worth a try. However, if you're looking for a better balance between price and portion, you might want to explore other options. read more

I went to The Q Baking Corner to try their famous croissants and breakfast muffins. The croissants were buttery, flaky, and just melted in my mouth, while the muffins were perfectly moist, with just the right amount of sweetness. The service was top-notch--quick, friendly, and efficient. The prices are fair, especially given the high quality of the products. It's rare to find a bakery that offers such consistency in both service and product. I'll be coming back for sure! read more

I called two weeks in advance to place my order, and the entire process was incredibly smooth. The workers are all very kind, though they don't speak much English, so it might be a little challenging to order if you don't know the language. To confirm and secure the phone order, they do require payment via Zelle or Venmo. The presentation and flavor of the cake were both outstanding! The amount of time and detail put into making it look exactly like a durian was spectacular. More importantly, the taste was phenomenal as they use real durian pieces, and the cake itself is an incredibly soft, light, and airy sponge.

Sadly, Euro Delights earned their perennial 1 Star today. This business demonstrated absolute garbage customer service and disregard for people's time. Context: Upon visiting the shop a few weeks prior, we saw an option for a custom order durian cake. The lady in charge of cake operations if you will, told us we needed to order at least 2-3 days in advance. We wanted to place an order for my mother-in-law's birthday. So we ordered on a Sunday (basically 1 wk in advance) and confirmed pick up the following Saturday. We had verbal confirmation over the phone and provide provided name and number for a 930am pickup. When I arrived this morning, l had to first wait 20 minutes for them to service a customer ordering a cake, which they could've just checked on my order for pick up within seconds. After having to repeat my name and number several times, I was told that there was a miscommunication with the staff; and they had sold our custom ordered cake already. What in the fuck?! No other explanations, no apologies, no offer to remediate whatsoever. I was then told they can make a cake if I can wait 30 to 45 minutes. Why the hell do you ask customers to pre-order several days in advance when you can just make this "custom" cake within an hour??? Never supporting this place ever again.

Unfortunately, this time it was completely different. The flan actually looked like Gruyère cheese, with little holes throughout it. The texture was very spongy and airy instead of silky and smooth, and the taste was definitely not as good as the first time. I probably should have passed on it because it didn't look right, but I was craving flan and hoped it would still taste as good as the one I had before. Khanh's Restaurant in Campbell used to have, in my opinion, the best flan in all of Santa Clara County, but sadly they no longer offer it. That's why I was so happy when I first tried the flan here and thought I had finally found a good replacement. I really think the owner should check the quality of the food before they put the product out to sell. The appearance and texture of this batch were noticeably off and should have been caught beforehand. I hope this was just a bad batch, because the first flan I bought here was genuinely very good. One thing I learned from this experience: I will never buy a flan that looks like Gruyère cheese again.

I've been to other Paris Baguette locations where this has never been an issue--they were more than happy to write "Happy Birthday" on a cake at the time of purchase. The employee helping me was kind enough to ask the manager, Hyun, if she could make an exception. The manager had no choice but to accommodate and, more importantly, her attitude made the experience even more disappointing. For a brand-new location, I expected much better customer service.
