I was looking for a sweet special treat for my partner for our anniversary. I came across Sweet Andes page for alfajores and I was not disappointed. I put in my order super last minute luckily they were so sweet and accommodating. The service for sure was a 5/5. They answered all my questions were very communicative and had great recommendations. My favorite alfajor was the coconut one and the original. The flavor was so authentic and the cookies literally melt in your mouth. I know these were supposed to be for my partner but needless to say I finished most of them my self. Best spot in OC to get authentic and original alfajores.

Response time was so quick and the alfajores were AMAZING!! The cookies are buttery and the cajeta is so rich. It really is the perfect treat. Thank you for making my Father's Day desserts so special

The classic alfajores have a perfect ratio of crisp and crumble, the filling is smooth, creamy, and decadent. These alfajores find that right balance of richness that isn't too sweet. It's hard to have just one, each had me wanting to indulge in another. The chocolate flavor was a real treat. Its flavors of cocoa and dark chocolate are touched with a bit of espresso, giving its flavor a wonderful complexity and depth. These elicit warm cozy vibes with each bite. Not only are the baked goods themselves a treat, but the baker and owner, Jesse, is a delight. His passion for his alfajores really shows. From placing an order to picking them up in person, he provides a welcoming and detailed service. You can tell he cares a lot about his customers and his craft. As a repeat customer, I highly recommend a try.

The quality and taste of these alfajores is the best! I've ordered for holiday parties and Valentine's Day and they're always a hit. Definitely recommend!

I love these alfajores!!! Sweet Andes has not only a great selection but all of their flavors are delicious. My personal favorites are the classic, coconut, and the guava. I don't even like guava all that much but it is the perfect amount of guava and complements the shortbread & cajeta very well. I bought two of these boxes and gave one to my mom and sister to share. They both agreed that these are some of the best alfajores they've ever had. We will definitely be ordering more!

I was able to pick up a 24 pack of alfajores today after just ordering them last night which was great. My mom fell in love with alfajores and we've been looking for a place who sells them but wondered if any would taste as good as the real thing but I have to say these are amazing and just melt in your mouth! There's a variety of flavors to choose from, I got classic, coconut, chocolate, matcha and guava which were all so delicious and go great with my coffee. I also appreciate the quick responses and how easy it was to place an order especially with it being last minute. I'm happy I've found a go-to place for alfajores and I can't wait to try the rest of the flavors!

I live in Florida and I definitely would travel just to order more !! Obsessed with these alfajores !!!. Excellent customer service and always on time. 100% recommend this business!! Best alfajores I've tried since I've been in the US. I love the variety in flavor and how they melt in your mouth. If you're anywhere near California, Must go check them out !!! Thank you Sweet Andes for making my favorite dessert of all time :)

Wow, this is my first time trying these. I ordered classic, chocolate, and guava flavor for galentines day. Every flavor was so delicious, melt in your mouth, buttery, flaky and each one I ate was better than the next. It was a huge hit and we devoured them quickly. The process of ordering was so simple and easy through Instagram and he immediately came out as I drove up for pick up. Would highly recommend!!! read more

My Peruvian neighbor was turning 80 and I wanted to get her something special. Found these by searching yelp. The communication was quick and clear. Pick up was super smooth and convenient. The cookies are packaged beautifully so all I had to add was a bow. My neighbor and her family loved them and said they were delicious! We both plan to order more in the future.

Looking for something sweet, soft, with a little munch to crunch? Then you NEED THESE COOKIES. Think of them like a soft, white, oreo with a decadent, smooth, creamy filling of your choice! The owner, Jesse, is friendly, professional, and only provides quality desserts and service. You can tell every every cookie aka "alfajore" is made with the upmost attention and care and come out MOUTH WATERING!

I am always happy to support a small business, and Sweet Andes is no exception. Alfajores are such a sweet delight, and it's so exciting to see someone master it and even add a spin on it with their creative flavors! Of course I love the classic, but the guava and the churro are right up there with my absolute favorites. Every time I've brought a batch to a family or friend event, they've been a hit. Ordering and pickup is super easy and efficient, don't hesitate to give these a try! read more

ALFAJORES! Okay so these traditional Peruvian cookies are legitimately out of this world. Different flavors available! I've tried the classic (dulce de leche), chocolate and churro. I can't stop ordering or eating these. My personal favorite is classic but I'm super into dulce de leche. I need to go back and try the guava and the chocolate dipped. They are soft and perfectly balanced in all the flavors. They make a perfect gift too, and the presentation is perfect to take with you straight to gift, but you will definitely need to order a second box so you can eat them on the way. If you're wondering why you haven't tried them yet, ask yourself whats stopping you? Order alfajores now, i promise you won't regret anything except not buying them sooner and not having bought more! read more

History

Established in 2022.

We are a family-owned bakery in Orange, CA with South American roots from Peru and Ecuador. We created our business out of passion in baking Alfajores, the most popular pastry cookie in South America and specifically, Peru. We worked to take a generational Peruvian recipe and perfected it further. We strive to innovate with new flavors and locally sourced ingredients. We are available for individual orders and catering to events such as parties and weddings. We bake to order and have all permits and licenses required from the county of Orange to provide our customers the best experience possible from our cottage bakery. We consistently work to bring new flavors and twists on classic Alfajores.

Meet the Business Owner: J E.

Jesse is the son of Ecuadorian parents who immigrated to California at a very young age. By the age of 9, Jesse knew how to make empanadas and llapingachos by hand. He would watch his centenarian grandmother “Kika” roll, fold, and curl empanada dough with ease and he loved every minute of it. He later married his Peruvian wife who shared a generational Peruvian Alfajor recipe. At that moment he knew he had to master the art of Alfajor making and bring it to Orange County. His goal is to make the Peruvian Alfajor popular in Orange County through quality and innovation of flavors from his home bakery to consumers.

Every visit has been a great experience in this cute shop, and I look forward to coming back week after week.

Came by recently for a boba fix on a random weekday afternoon! The girl who helped was really…read morefriendly and told us to let her know if we had any questions. We got two drinks: the white peach oolong and the passion orange green tea. They both tasted great! I especially enjoyed the passion orange green tea, it was super refreshing. The interior was really clean, spacious, and quiet. If I wanted to find a place to study, this is the place to be! The size of the drinks were generous too; definitely will be back to try some other flavors and cram for some future exams. The only thing I wish they had was crystal/agar boba as one of their topping options! Hopefully they'll consider adding it at some point.

Shared parking lot means plenty of parking, too! Inside is a cute little seating area and adorable bear decals on the walls. There is also a little claw game near the restroom. Both times I have been here I was helped by the same man who works at the counter and makes the drinks. From other pictures and reviews, I think he may be the owner? I'm not sure, but he is really nice and helpful and helped me pick my first thing to try when I came in. I ordered the Phoenix oolong with boba; a deliciously roasty iced drink with perfect boba! Admittedly, on my 2nd visit, I got it adjusted to 75% sweetness and did not love it as much but that is all on me. This one is best as it comes, full sweetness! I need to try other drinks but I really like the Phoenix Oolong. It's like a classic milk tea but better. Give it a try!

Thankfully, the line moved pretty quickly, although the bakery itself is small and can feel a bit tight inside.

I honestly wish I had gotten more. My kids enjoyed everything too. The only item that was a bit disappointing was the Sea Salt Taro Latte. It was a little too milky and sweet for my taste.

I have to admit that the Aussie style breakfast is along with different twist on certain things that you wouldn't typically have for breakfast or initially caught my eye. I started off with the golden latte. It was a beautifully balanced turmeric latte with almond milk with a perfect amount of sweetness. Not only was it gut healing, but it's super warming on a chilly morning. While I was looking over the menu, I was between the breakfast burrito since everybody was ordering it or the soft scramble with chili oil. I landed on the soft scrambled chili crunch. It was served with a half avocado and rye toast the others in our party ordered pancakes, bacon, a chicken sandwich and a Yuzu drink. Everything came out in a timely manner and beautifully plated. I absolutely loved the soft scramble on Rye. It was a perfect serving size as well as hitting the spot for a not so traditional breakfast. As we're sitting there, I noticed everybody was ordering the lemon ricotta pancakes, so I could not resist and ordered some as well. I will say the most underwhelming part of that was the lemon ricotta pancakes due to the ratios for the pancake pancakes and lemon ricotta. Overall, my experience was spectacular. I cannot wait to go back to Bluestone Lane to try other menu items.

I have gone the past 2 years and never had issues getting it on the first day. This year was different. I got there around 5:05 and walked into the shop to see a lot of tables empty. I was shocked to see that. I waited in line with maybe like two people in front of me and guess what they asked of Pliny was still available. The guy working said to the people in front of me that they sold out. It was my turn I asked if they had it and the guy said that they had a line since 3pm and that they sold out of the keg. We ended up getting two beers since we went anyways but that's when things didn't add up. He kept telling all the other people that started to show up the same thing. These are reasons why it didn't add up 1) empty seats inside but had a line since 3pm and beer was released at 4pm 2) I don't think the people going for younger would just order one beer and not try other RR beers? 3) only one guy working beer counter and having to clean the tables and make sandwiches? 4) 12 oz pours of beer and keg with about 1984 oz would make it 166 beers. No way they sold 166 beers in an hour with one person working the bar and shop empty in an hour. They could have posted on their instagram or socials that they sold out but failed to do so. I'm sure a lot of people all night were disappointed to see that they didn't have it or post anything about it.
