    Candied Apples
    RoseMary F.

    I had dinner in Alhambra and spotted a chocolate factory. Say what? Did I read the sign correctly? I just had to go in to check it out. Fortunately, the city has a parking structure next door with four hours of free parking. Diana helped me make my selections, which was a slice of chocolate covered bacon. Say what? Did I read that label correctly? My second item was a cashew cluster (milk chocolate for me, dark chocolate available). They make gourmet candy apples dipped and covered with amazing toppings. They also have ice cream cones and Milkshakes. Plus lots of candies and plush stuffed animal collectibles. If you are craving something sweet, or gift for that person who has everything, surprise them with a sweet snack or gift card. Don't forget to tell'em that Rosemary sent!!

    Dubai chocolate bar
    Kimberly H.

    Was lured in by the sign that said that Dubai chocolate bars were available! My youngest was just telling me he wanted to try it and lo and behold, it was here! I didn't know what to expect or how much it was, but I'm down for new experiences! It is pricey, but what isn't these days! When I tell you it is delicious, believe me! I lived the pistachio center and the crunch was amazing. IMO We ate the entire bar so quickly! Mind you, we tried to savor it, but couldn't resist! My daughter says it was 'mid', so I asked her what she was expecting. She thought it would be more creamy. I honestly didn't get to peruse the shop as I was laser focused on getting the kunafa bar. It smelled so delicious though! All I can say is that we tried it and 3 out of 4 approves, so that's good odds as far as I'm concerned.

    Called in ahead to save the viral Dubai pistachio chocolate bar, luckily I was able to snag 3 of them for me and my friends so I don't think they have a limit to how much per person can buy. They have a nutty and little bitter taste, but still nicely sweet. They were $17.50 each if you're curious and want to try I think it's a good buy!

    Disgusting, moldy, and old tasting candy apple. Ate a few slices before realizing there was a foul taste, examined the apple and found fuzzy green and white mold in the apple. Stay clear of this place.

    $11 for an old spoiled apple wrapped in hard marshmallows. I don't know how long these apples are out but they should really do a better job making them fresh or at least making sure the ones on display are fresh. I was really excited to try this spot but will definitely not be going back.

    Stale toffee bar, white powder coating on top. What's that? Terrible toffee.
    Emily F.

    Wanted to support a small business but the quality was so bad. The chocolate was very old and stale tasting. I'm a genuine sweet tooth so for me to throw sweets in the trash is a never, but that's how bad these were. This was my first time stopping by so I wanted to try the variety. I got peanut butter cup, s'mores truffle, chocolate covered strawberry, coconut chew, caramel chew, candy apple and the toffee bar. Everything was bad and expensive. The toffee tasted worse than what I would've got from a heath bar at 7-11. Only thing decent was the caramel apple. All in all Very low quality. Not sure why they are not refrigerating leftover candy, but it could help with strong staleness taste. The staleness was overwhelming across all the chocolates. Also the chocolate itself tastes low quality. Thickly Glopped on and slapped on the different things it covered. Everything purchased reveals that either the person making these has no idea how to make good Candy and/or owner just doesn't care. Nothing special here. You seriously can make the same thing at home yourself with a little time on your hand. Go to Sees for your chocolate. Sees is priced appropriately and experts in their craft. I won't be back here.

    Looked liked chocolate covered strawberries but are NOT
    Te'Juana J.

    Went for chocolate covered strawberries. Purchased what I thought were chocolate covered strawberries. Only to get home and Vite into them and they are just chocolate. I am highly disappointed. Why would these be on the same row with the chocolate covered strawberries?!

    Candy Apple spoiled! Discussing that they don't check the apples.
    Brianna V.

    Expired candy apple! Grossed out by this location. Wasted my money on this, should of never stopped by. This business needs to close down for terrible quality.

    Mold infested chocolate brownie. Purchased the assorted goodie basket to find old and stale products.

    Spoiled strawberry
    Lizzie L.

    I walked in here trying to support a small business but their chocolate dipped strawberries were gross. You would think they would be refrigerated to keep them fresh but they are not they are left out with the the rest of the chocolates. The strawberry tasted like it had passed its by date and they stems did not provide any indication that they were fresh. The chocolate was overwhelming it was like a super thick coat. My stomach was not happy for a few days

    The inside of the Dubai Bar! So delicious!

    I am a returning customer. They started making the new viral Dubai Chocolate Bars & let me tell you, they are sooo good! They are a good size for the price and I would definitely recommend checking out their new chocolate bar.

It had almost no flavor and tasted watered down, especially for the price. I expected a quality drink, but it was bland and absolutely not worth what I paid. To make matters worse, we were told to leave the patio an hour before the shop was even closing. If the patio has different hours, that should be clearly communicated instead of asking paying customers to leave early. Overall, this was a frustrating experience. Between the unfriendly service, flavorless coffee, and being asked to leave well before closing, I won't be coming back. There are plenty of other cafés in Pasadena that offer much better coffee and treat their customers with respect.

Most of these ended up being gifts, but I did enjoy one of the red velvet cookies and for an already sweet flavor profile with white chocolate chips in it, I was already fearing the worse, but went perfect with a glass of milk. The edges were nicely crisped by the baking too. Delicious. Love that they had a stock of cute, pre-decorated cookies available as well (some Sanrio characters, animals, etc.) They also list all the ingredients used in each of the baked goods that they have prepackaged, which is nice. It's also a cafe where you can order drinks, as well as a place you can order cakes custom order or what they have behind the glass already. There's both seating inside and outside.

Lots of public parking outside, so you won't have problems finding a spot. This place has a lot of hype thanks to social media and the internet, and I can see why. They have a lot of innovative, Filipino-inspired pastries that you'll have trouble finding anywhere else. So if you're looking for something a bit different, come check it out. The hall has plenty of seating, so I opted to eat my meal here. The place is really clean and communal; you'll enjoy it. Ordered the following: - Chicken and waffles - 6/10: Two thighs on top of a fat Belgian waffle served with a side of honey and cinnamon butter. Waffle was fluffy, grainy, and baked just right. That was the best part of the dish. The chicken, though, was a bit disappointing. Way too salty, overseasoned, and slightly overcooked. Looked a lot better than it tasted. - Ube Black Sesame Roll - 5.5/10: Looks like a cinnamon roll, but it's smothered in an ube paste and sprinkled with black sesame. A little too sweet for me and the ube was just a bit too much. Maybe dial down the ube just a tad bit. Sesame didn't do much for it, unfortunately. All this with a canned soda came out to 33 bucks. Expensive for sure. At any rate, if I'm in the area, the offerings are varied enough to merit another pass here. Come check it out for yourself as a decent time was had by all.

Its a small shop on Main in Alhambra and there's a lot in the back as well as street parking. It's a brightly lit, pick up and go type place though there are a couple tables out front. The baked goods look really cute and enticing and I ended up going for a mystery box since I wasn't after a specific cake and the mystery aspect seemed appealing. I also got 6 egg tarts, which were a great price at $1 each. The baked goods/sweets looked better than they tasted flr me. The egg tarts had a texture that was a bit off putting for myself, it was more of a steamed egg texture than a silky custardy filling. Flavorwise, they were ok though. The mystery box was fun and I got an apple cake, peach cake, and a panda cake. Now the mystery box is day old cakes so keeping that in mind, they are like cream based "cakes" and are essentially cream covered gels/jellies of some sort. The flavor and textures were good, very light cream with strong fruit flavors (the panda was also a peach flavor, I think). As a set of the mystery box price, I think the cakes are fun to try but I wouldn't, personally, pay those prices for essentially shaped cream. I'm glad I tried a new spot but ultimately don't think it was super impressive and found most of their desserts and baked items to be average, or a little less so as for the egg tarts.
