I preordered an 8" cappuccino mousse cake online for pick up. They require a minimum of 3 days advanced notice. The cake was $36.95, no tax. In the special note I asked them to write, "happy birthday" but instead got a little topper and a plastic serving knife. No candles included like Paris Baguette. The cake fed 12+ people. It was not overly sweet. Lots of mousse-to-cake ratio. I would order birthday cakes here again. read more

I was waiting for friends and decided to get a snack. The baked bread choices were uniquely Sheng Kee's. However, today when I walked into the bakery, the choices and flavors are similar to what you would get at 85° Degrees Bakery like the marbled taro bun and several others. I got the pineapple red bean bun which was loaded with red bean paste and the familiar crunchy topping of the pineapple bun. This was good. read more

This bakery is smaller than other locations. I came in to get a mango mousse cake and a few savory and sweet buns but the selection was limited. Service was fast as there was just one other customer. The mango mouse cake is good but it wasn't topped off with the chocolate spirals like other locations. read more

Special shout out to Lin and her team for preparing nearly 200 pastries for Saturday 8am catering. I was happy they were able to produce so much the day after Thanksgiving and even advise us to have somebody pick it up to avoid expensive delivery service. The pastries were a big hit with the guests, we had tons of leftovers and ate them for days onwards. The pastries tasted fresh and delicious - not too sweet. They even tasted great 2-3 days afterwards (just ate some for breakfast today!). The pricing was also affordable, at roughly $2 per pastry for the catering order. I'm really happy with their service and will definitely be back soon! Thank you Lin and the team here for making my dad's funeral a success with these pastries. read more

I've been a regular customer here, but there was this one day when I only had a $100 bill and needed to buy a loaf of bread that cost less than $10. They don't take credit cards for spending below $10, and don't take $100 bills. Service was shit too and gave the "take it or leave it" attitude. I would have been happy to pay for the credit card surcharges, but having such bad service in this economy where competitive is tough (there's another bakery with good reviews at the other end of the plaza).... They just lost a regular customer read more

We only order birthday cakes from Sheng Kee. They use fresh ingredients . So the quality has been consistent.

You might like this bakery if you're not a fan of sweet treats. Very mild in flavor and fresh pastry. I stopped by the store when they have special promotion buy 5 get 1 free egg tarts. Very reasonable price and fresh, however it might be a bit bland for some people as it's very mild in sugar. read more

I used to like Shengji's taro cake, but I will never eat it again. On 5/12, I bought a taro cake. When I got home, the taro paste was very hard and sour. It had never been like this before. I was really disappointed. I will never go to her house to buy things again. The picture is what I took that day. You can see that it is all hard and not fresh at all. I will never go there again. read more

Located in the plaza where Lion Supermarket is. The storefront is smaller than the one on Barber Lane in Milpitas, but service was incredible. I purchased a mocha cake for pickup on Christmas Day; thrilled and grateful that they are open. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted. The 2 ladies working that day were cheerful and sweet. We were the only ones in the store, so we were helped right away. I showed the lady the email confirmation and the rest was history. The process for ordering and pickup, the design of the cake, and the moist and decadent flavor reminded me so much of the bakery that is now closed. I have been searching for a long time for a mocha cake. The bakery that closed is called, "Thanh Bach." Sheng Kee's cappuccino cake was so delicious and light. The frosting, fluffy. Gave me nostalgic memories. I cannot wait to order it again for my mom's birthday. read more

Wow I really enjoy the fresh & tasty and timely goods of this bakery. They have International flavors as well as Asian flavors. I've tried their Cakes, savory goods and moon cakes. Many varieties and range of prices. I constantly am surprised! read more

Not much other than buns to choose from, came twice morning and afternoon and there wasn't much options. They do have Tea eggs which I don't see often. I bought an Egg tart and Portuguese tart both were very bland. Looks a bit dirty and dark inside, not very appetizing. read more

Was walking around the plaza and decided to check this place out. Ended up trying the dan taat and the coconut shreds-coated cream bread. My boyfriend also tried those and their rectanular garlic bread. The dan taat custard is too thick for my preference but I clearly tasted the egg and the crust was good (like pie crust). The coconut bread is really simple and delicious, definitely something I would get. For the prices, I can't complain and if one were closer to home, I would definitely go more often. read more

I bought so many things bc everything looked so tasty and I was excited to try them!! Unfortunately not pictured are pineapple cakes and a roll cake that I didn't get to try or take pictures bc my mom ate them Still bummed about this because they looked good Cranberry Almond cookies: So delicious! Nice and buttery. Hard to stop yourself after having one. Would get again. Garlic bread stick: Stale texture straight from bakery. I didn't try toasting it but maybe it would have been better if I toasted it. The flavor was not enough to make up for the texture. I wouldn't get this one again. Egg tart: Good. I'm not an egg tart connoisseur so I can't say much else. Tea egg: Neither of us liked this. I found it too soy saucy. Maybe because I am Viet and used to thịt kho trứng xD Wouldn't get it again. Cute bakery and would come here again to try more! read more

we ordered: - custard tart - hk chestnut cake 8" food: one of the only bakeries that still has a decent chestnut cake! we felt like it had less chestnut filling and fruit than before, but the cake is still nicely flavored and moist. custard tarts were good as well- very flaky though. i also like the brioche bread here! service: one worker helped us- she was very cheerful and kind! she was also understanding of the frosting flaw and discounted it a bit which was nice. ambiance: smaller and a bit shabbier than the other bakeries of the same chain ive been to, but they still have a decent selection of baked goods. it's located in a large asian plaza near many other plazas with good restaurants and snacks! read more

If you're a lover of moon cakes then you'll love their Lychee or Lotus Moon Cakes! While visiting Milpitas, I stumbled upon these moon cakes on a shelf in their bakery. I noticed them by there unique color and by their familiar size and shape. The moon cakes seem a bit pricey but their definitely worth trying! The Lychee Moon Cake was like a flavor explosion. In my opinion, it tasted very much like lychee and was perfectly sweet. The lotus moon cake is always a favorite of mine. I like the lotus flavor better than any other moon cake and it did not disappoint! What I like about moon cakes is that they have a good bite to them, they have unique flavor combinations, they have a intricate and delicate exterior, and they are delicious! I definitely recommend you try one during the Lunar New Year or even now! read more

Every year it's a family tradition to get a taro cake from Sheng Kee Bakery. This year was the first time I picked up the cake from this Sheng Kee location, and while everything didn't go flawlessly at the end of the day I can't complain. I didn't preorder the cake so I was prepared for the possibility that there wouldn't be one available same day, but I called as soon as they opened and managed to get one reserved. The lady who answered the phone spoke with an accent, and despite my few years of Chinese language education in America, there was a point in the call where I was totally confused... to the point where I couldn't make out what was being said logically or what the combination of sounds could possibly be as an individual term. No worries though, I managed to make it through the call. When I arrived to pick up the cake, it turned out that my phone number had been written down wrong. Luckily nobody else had a taro cake on reservation so I won my case in convincing that I was the customer, but oh how the little hiccups make me sweat! What if something is said that I don't understand or what if I don't know how to respond... awkward! Anyways, at the end of the day I got the cake, so all ended well. The cake is still surprisingly similar to how it used to be last year and how it's always been every year to my memory, the only thing that has changed is the price. I'm glad that the dining experience can still be the same though, and for that I can't complain. read more

12/27/21 My daughter's favorite chain bakery. Sheng Kee means "to make a living." Quality/Quantity - Again, my daughter's favorite. It also has some varieties that we can not find elsewhere. Danish Almond Toast Green Tea Mochi Danish - this is a hit!! Good balance with the tea flavor and mochi texture. Portuguese Custard Tart - My daughter got this because of my Oakland Napoleon Super Bakery Yelp; it was not as good as the PO tart from Napoleon Lychee MoonCake - we can't find this anywhere else. This is bite size and the most expensive thing we bought, but worth it. Much better than regular mooncakes. Atmosphere - Consistent throughout chain. Clean and good flow. Service - Good Price - $11.60, Prices are a little above average, but sometimes you just have to pay for good quality. Owner Suggestion - Congrats on all your successes with your 11 stores in the Bay Area. We have been shopping since you opened your store in SF in 1981. read more

HK-style bakery with that iconic super crinkly clear bag from Asian-bakeries. It's predictable and if you come here you know you are getting pastries with lots of breading that will burn faster than normal when you reheat it in a toaster oven. I love the savory stuff found near the cash register, the meat buns and the traditional Egg tarts + Portuguese egg tarts. There were also tea-hardboiled eggs up there as well. Hot dog buns are found in the normal area in the plastic boxes. My wife likes like the plain thick toast and the custard filled bun. We get this every couple months and use these as a snack throughout the weekend. This is smaller than the Sheng Kee in Union City but we think the quality is a little better. read more

I don't want to leave a negative review but that's the only way to reach the business owner to make corrections. I have been coming here for quite sometime and the services have been 3 stars at best. This last time I was there for an egg tart and there were 2 types so I bought one of the new kind of egg tart to sample after getting no answers from one of the women working there. She was very rude and disrespectful to me and acted as if I was holding up the line or intruding on her time and space. Btw there were only 4 people in the store Sine They allow credit card purchase only for $10 or more (I think that's against Visa policy?) I bought 4 more to meet their requirement. The egg tarts were just average, not worth the aggravation and annoyance of dealing with a rude employee to justify my egg tart cravings read more

Chinese baked goods It was something like 85°C Bakery Café but I found the baked goods here better. The inside is small and may not look as appealing as an 85° store but they have a good selection of Taiwanese-based pastries, cakes & bread. They also sold coffee drinks. The concept is similar to 85°C... you take a tray and a tong, choose your pastries/bread and place it on your tray. Pay at the counter when you're done with your selections. I got my favorite chocolate croissants and BBQ Bun. They also have individually boxed moon cakes and a variety of buns: custard, pineapple custard raisin, dirty, puff pork sung etc. The employees don't interact with the customers too much. Not sure if they are limited in their English-speaking but the bakery has a nice assortment of pastries at good value for the price! Parking is huge. It is located in the same shopping center as Lion Supermarket. Wish we had a Sheng Kee Bakery nearby. Closest one to me is in Richmond or Berkeley. Review #1753 read more

Sheng Kee seems to be quite popular here in Norcal. I dont see this bakery in SoCal. I have not tried their breads so that will be another review in the future. But based on their selection, it looks promising. I can't wait to go back to try their breads some day. I came here to pick up a birthday cake. Ordered a regular round cake with fresh fruits (also known as Fruit Basket Cake) because that's what the birthday person likes. nothing special, can't really go wrong with a traditional plain vanilla sponge cake with cream and fresh fruits on the top. But what bothered me was the filling. I am not sure what creamy pudding it is or some thick cream they added, i was not a fan of it. And i definitely was not happy that they used cocktail fruits for the inside middle layer, i wish they used fresh strawberries or mango.. anything better than canned fruit cocktail. On their website, it says "Diced Fruit in between layers." those diced fruits are fruit cocktail with the maraschino cherries too! ughhhh!!! Needless to say i will not be ordering the fresh fruit cake from this place; it was just not my cup of tea. i would go back to try their breads, perhaps try a different cake because i did like how light and airy the cake was. Just no to the fruit cake. read more

I usually have a good experience but today no. The lady had short hair with bangs but she didn't even tell us the bag charge and didn't say if we wanted a bag. But anyways she started to open the bag and said oh I didn't charge it as she was looking at the receipt. First of all, you didn't even ask us. Second you didn't tell us about the bag charge. Third how could you not even remember if you charged it or not. She was talking to her friend as she was helping us out so that must be why. She got distracted. And then she closed one of the bread bags for us with tape but not the 4 others. That's a little weird and not good service at all. Be consistent woman. Gosh read more

Stopped by here because I was heading to the South Bay and wanted something for the trip. The custard bun was good, but the pork bun was pretty blah. Also tried a lychee moon cake, though it was too sweet even for my sweet tooth. Definitely a good place for this sort of thing, just wasn't feeling some of the things we got. read more

Coming from San Jose, I've only been to this bakery once before. I remember getting some sort of red bean bun. The red bean bun was so tasty, that I decided to order delivery For delivery, I ordered eight of the Portuguese custard tarts that cost $2.15 a piece. With sales tax, delivery tax, and other costs, the total came up to about $25 The pastries came on time, tasted fresh, and looked the way it's supposed to look with caramelized sugar on top. Will definitely come back for more read more

Came there to pickup several bakery items that are preordered on a Sunday morning. Had to wait for at least 2 min for the staff to be available to talk to me.

Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos. I brought their regular white bread 方包 and french bread 豬仔包 The white bread was tasty when toasted and ate with butter. If not, maybe for healthier eating.

Cute bakery shop! My boyfriends family loves this place and most of their birthday cakes are from here. Their favorite is the passion fruit cake which is slightly sweet from the fluffy cake and sour from the syrup. They have a huge variety of baked goods that are reasonably priced. My boyfriend and I got the green tea and milky pudding with a slice of mango custard cake! Not a fan of the first layer of the pudding but overall everything was fairly tasty! read more

Been coming here for years because their cakes are delicious and the presentations are always gift worthy. Their cakes are moist and packed with flavor.. whether it's the mango mousse, or tiramisu, almost every cake i have bought from here over the years doesnt change in its taste. It's also a plus that they provide you with candles, small plates and tiny utensils for free. The bakery is also worth the try. Sometimes just walking by i would buy some almond cookies and it's always such a treat. read more

We stopped by to pick up some goodies to bring to a casual lunch. Very nice little bakery in the Lyons parking lot! Tons and tons of variety of pastries, tarts, cakes, etc. Very simple: you grab you tongs and fill up your tray with delicious treats and then return them to the cashier. They take credit cards over $10. We tried their best seller pineapple bun, lotus pastry, chocolate croissant, layered chocolate pastry, mocha roll cake, and a Portuguese egg tart. The roll cake was sooo moist and soft with the perfect ratio of cream to cake. I would like to try other flavors. Our favorite was definitely the Portuguese egg tart (the flakiest piece of heaven, i could eat 100 of these) and the chocolate croissant! My guilty pleasure is also they're hot dog buns lol read more

This place is surprisingly good! Cakes and macaroons are delicious not too sweet and I'm kinda shocked it's sorta hidden. Great place to try some pastry & again the mini macaroons were great!! read more

I usually go to the one on Barber Court, but since I was in the neighborhood decided to check it out. Pleasant greeting and they have fresh baked goods assorted cookies and cakes. Liked the idea of buy one and get one free. All the buns and pastries are for my family's Thanksgivings Day meal. I probably go back to the one on Barber Court since I've been a long time customer and the staff have always been attentive and helpful. Parking here is much worse can't believe the traffic is so horrendous even on a holiday. read more

I visited Sheng Kee Bakery for the first time around 2PM-3PM in the afternoon. There was still a good selection of baked goods available! I had fun perusing and decided on two pastries. I got a taro pastry and a matcha danish like pasty. I really enjoyed the taro one. The bread was soft and a little sweet and the taro filling was nice. The matcha filling was kind of grainy but the pastry around it was ok. 4 stars since there is a great selection of things and the quality was good. One thing to know that it is 10 dollars minimum for card. I was out of cash so luckily my friend was with me to pay! Anyhow, don't hesitate to come here for some inexpensive tasty pastries! read more

They have the best HK Pinaepple Buns. Every time I buy some to gift to others they ask me where to get them.

My go to place whenever there are birthdays in the family for cake. I practically tried every kind, ranging from mousse, Japanese cheesecake, green tea red bean, and their fruit tarts. I'm a fan of all cakes from Sheng Kee! Don't forget to pre-order your cake to ensure its freshness! The buns, pastries, and breads are always fresh and yummy! Too bad they stopped their nightly specials after 7pm. read more

4.5/5: The "blueberry half-moon sponge" thing is really good. Very light inside, like angle food cake, and great flavor. There is a single ribbon of fruit. 4.5/5: The Portuguese custard tart is excellent: better than just about every other place I've tried it. 2/5: The mocha horn was meh: the frosting was too thin, and the horn itself wasn't flaky enough. read more

This is my family's main source of breakfast. We always get the whole wheat toast, green onion bread, and pineapple bun. I must say they are generous with the green onion! Sheng Kee used to have the spicy chicken cheese bread, but unfortunately, not anymore. I purchased the taro cake twice because it's a family favorite. I wish I can purchase slices on days I'm craving it, but the bakery only offers it as a whole cake at the moment. Tip: Preorder the taro cake in advance, because it may not be available on a daily basis. read more
