    Bunny macaroons
    Maria A.

    Not only cute but seriously tangy and tasty 5/5. It's seriously worth the price I paid for them!

    My, oh, my. Don't you have a Sweet Box? *giggle* https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=af9xe4lMULS-OWblJMXrnw&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA After taking a macaron-making class at "The Gourmandise School" in Santa Monica almost a decade ago, I've grown to appreciate those tasty lil' buggers. After seeing Snowfox close up, to be replaced by Sweet Box, macaron hunger pangs engulfed me, awaiting Sweet Box to open. Macarons have 2 distinctions - regular & special. Naturally, I had to go for special macarons, if only because they're too cute. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=aSVGzCYXY_smSmrPheDIng&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Cocoa & nutella macarons- https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=-ZhLGUWgjaeVZS-8f-SN7Q&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA I highly enjoyed these macarons, moreso cocoa. They both had a good amount of filling, with the macarons having a little bite to them. Not too sweet, either. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=YzfvWOQ8dg82Yydr255yHw&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Service was good. The young woman behind the counter was busy decorating a fresh batch of macarons out of the oven, but quickly assisted me with my order. The macarons are allowed to cool, then individually wrapped, to save for later or to give away. Sweet Box is located in front of the food court at Los Cerritos Center. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=-UzQYjLzVrR865uI9wfjrw&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Call me the Macaron Mack Daddy, for I love me some macarons! Sweet Box has a box of awesomeness awaiting you. Their macarons are the real deal, and since I haven't visited in awhile, methinks I need to gift myself a box, sooner rather than later. Highly recommend!

    This macaron shop is near the food court at the mall. These are the best macarons I have tried! They are a good size. They have a lot of flavor and the filling is perfect. Not too sweet or thick like most I have tried. I love the pistachio, vanilla, strawberry and earl gray.

    Sweet Box cookie booth at Cerritos Mall next to the food court

    This place is not welcoming to Black people. I have purchased here several times and never have I received a welcoming greeting. With the political and social climate that we are currently experiencing, I am on higher alert to establishments that make me feel uncomfortable. I went to the Cerritos mall the day before my birthday to get my favorite cookies, when I stepped to the counter the owner was actually working the counter. She looked at me directly in the face, turned her back, and went to take care of other things inside her booth while I stood there for a total of 4 1/2 minutes waiting for her to acknowledge me. Or ask me to give her a moment so that she could take care of what was suddenly so urgent when I arrived. When she finally decided to give me her attention she walked over to the glass where I was standing, and said yes, and that's it. I lost it. Needless to say, I walked away from that counter with her knowing exactly how I felt about her service and her business. I didn't want to jump to conclusions so my mother and I got some food and sat down directly across from her establishment to watch and see if this experience was had by other people, specifically those of color. I watched this lady countless times hurry to service people that aren't the same colors as me. There was one customer that came to her booth that looked like me. It was a man with his children. They received almost the same service that I did. She sat in her booth and waited at least 2 to 3 minutes before she finally got up, walked to the counter, and just looked him in the face. No communication, no smile, nothing. This man still purchased with this woman and left the counter. I wish that he had been more aware of what was happening to him and his children. Needless to say, I hope that she changes her attitude towards people of color, specifically African-American customers. I saw plenty of Hispanicscustomers go to her booth, and she jumped to service them. Crappy ambience honestly

    Not only adorable, but tasty too!!! I accidentally came across Sweet Box only because I wanted to walk off my lunch and the mall was an air conditioned place to do it. So I was wandering with no destination in mind and I come across the Sweet Box kiosk. So freaking cute!!! This place is NOT cheap and being that the macarons were so cute, I figured they only looked good but didn't hold much weight in the flavor department. I was wrong. I enjoy macarons on rare occasions because they are usually too sweet but I thought that Sweet Box did a great job in the balance of sweetness, chewiness, and presentation. I would definitely recommend this place to others. After bringing them home and trying them, I was thinking of who's bday was coming up so I could buy them some. Out of the dozen I bought, the Earl Grey was my favorite. The Strawberry was good as well as it had a real fruit flavor to it. Piece of advise. Don't let them sit in your car or in a warm area as the filling will melt. I learned the hard way. I still ate all of them though. The service was good but I did feel a little rushed. I didn't understand why being that there was no one in line but I did feel rushed. She wasn't rude but she kept looking over her shoulder like she had something else to get to.

    Flavors: Vanilla Bean, Red Velvet, Matcha, Cookies & Cream, Nutella, and Strawberry. 12 pack for $28

    Flavors: Vanilla Bean, Red Velvet, Matcha, Cookies & Cream, Nutella, and Strawberry. As you can tell, I already ate half the box. Out of all these flavors my favorite were Vanilla Bean and Nutella. But all of them were really really good. Not intensely sweet...just perfect. Probably the best macarons I've had in a while. Definitely recommend this place!

    Ghost Macarons (゜ロ゜;)
    Saza C.

    Stumbled across this cute store while going around the mall. The macarons were so cutely decorated and tasted really good (´`)ノ I tried the ghost macarons and the grape tanghulu. It was my first time trying tanghulu and it wasn't that sticky and the grapes were sweet. My boyfriend said it was too sweet but that's just his taste ( ̄ ̄) The worker was so sweet and very nice!

    Duckie-!!

    They have the cutest macarons ever! There's usually a wide variety of animals if you come early. They are a bit on the pricey side for macarons but definitely worth it if you have the money! I religiously get my salted caramel duckies here. Ahh as an fyi though, they are a small business and due to them being under staffed they may sometimes take awhile to serve you - I once waited over 5 minutes to be served because the staff were hard at work decorating the next batch of cookies. So please be patient with them, they're trying their best!

    Here is proof of the mold on the macaron.

    I had come here for some macarons, especially after a long day. The presentation of the macarons are quite lovely and they tasted well. However, i had opened up one of the macarons to discover there was mold on the cookie. I was extremely disappointed considering this was my first time at this place. I could've had an adverse reaction to the mold, not to mention this is not checked for quality at all, so who knows how long the macaron could've been sitting for if mold was able to grow inside. I'm extremely disappointed, so I recommend being weary and double checking before taking the first bite.

    13 macaroons for $33!

I will say, the cakes are on the pricier side, so it might not be an everyday purchase, but for a birthday, celebration, or something special, I think it's worth it.

    Y'all ever order food and wonder if the seasoning took a personal day?…read more Came for brunch and got the breakfast bowl. It was so underwhelming and unseasoned I genuinely sat there confused, like... is this a prank? Did somebody forget salt exists? My honey ordered the smash burger and it was also underseasoned and overcooked. A sad little double feature of disappointment. Service matched the food. Once they dropped the plates, they ghosted. Never table-touched, never checked in. They could literally see the looks on our faces and still kept walking by like we were invisible. We ended up throwing most of it away. I only took the egg and those sad, unseasoned potatoes home so I could try to rescue them myself. The bacon? Delicious. Absolute legend. Everything else tasted like it was cooked by someone who's never met a spice rack. To the owner: please, for the love of brunch, go find the seasoning. It's out there somewhere. We believe in you.

From their cute…read more(bear) buttercream cakes and mousse cakes to their cloud cakes, Tous Les Jours never disappoints. Because their cakes and pastries can sell out pretty quickly, I definitely recommend pre-ordering your cake online. My current go-to is the Ube Cloud Cake. It's really light and fluffy--truly like a cloud! The ube flavor is subtle and not overly sweet or too sweet potato-forward, which makes it a great option even for people who aren't huge ube fans. The presentation is also beautiful. They wrap the cake in a purple ombré plastic collar and sprinkle dried lavender on top, making it almost too pretty to unwrap. Once you remove the wrapper, it's a simple white cake underneath, but still pretty nonetheless! Beyond their whole cakes, Tous Les Jours has so many individual pastries and breads to choose from. They offer cake by the slice, macarons, and individually wrapped favorites like red bean bread, salt & butter rolls, custard bread, almond croissants, guava danishes, and pizza bread. They also have pre-made sandwiches in the refrigerated section if you're on the go and need a quick bite. For bread to take home, they have whole loaves of milk bread, baguette rolls, and bundles of milk buns. Since this location stays pretty popular, some of the favorites can sell out quickly, so I recommend going earlier in the day for the best selection. They also have a cute little retail section with green tea and mocha roll cakes, manju, buckets of butter cookies, jams, and other goodies that make for easy gifts or treats to bring home. There's plenty of seating inside, plus an outdoor patio, so it's also a nice spot to grab a pastry and drink, get some work done, or simply lounge for a bit. Whether I'm picking up a cake for a celebration or just stopping by for some bread and pastries, Tous Les Jours is always such a reliable go-to!

From the gold and white décor to the soft jazz playing throughout the café, the entire space feels elegant, peaceful, and welcoming. One thing I really enjoyed was the self-serve bakery experience. You grab a tray when you walk in and choose from a selection of fresh pastries, breads, croissants, cookies, macarons, cakes, pies, tarts, and so much more. There truly is something for everyone. I ordered the Honey Lavender Matcha and a chocolate muffin and spent about 11bucks. Let me just say, both were excellent. The matcha was perfectly balanced with earthy matcha, honey, and lavender without being overly sweet. The chocolate muffin was soft, moist, and filled with a rich chocolate center that made every bite even better. I also appreciated the attention to cleanliness and presentation. Many of the fresh bakery items were individually wrapped and sealed, while others were beautifully displayed behind glass, giving the café a polished and upscale feel. What really stood out to me was the value. I spent less here than I had at another coffee shop earlier that week, yet left feeling like I received so much more. The quality, atmosphere, food, and overall experience made it feel like money well spent. Whether you're looking for a place to study, work remotely, enjoy a coffee date, meet a friend, or simply treat yourself, Tous Les Jours is absolutely worth a visit. I'll definitely be back to try more from their bakery because there were far too many delicious options to choose from in just one visit.
