Tucked in the corner of a shopping center is this little gem - a small family owned bakery putting out some legit Korean steadies. From cakes to classics like salt bread and lesser known pastries that you may not find elsewhere. The service was friendly, and they have a lot of options on hand - I was purchasing sort of last minute for a party and they had everything I was looking for. I'm sure we'll be back soon. :) read more

Ye Wool Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - La Palma, California

So, I've been coming here for over a year now. Not often, but I do make a point of stopping in when I'm in the area. Still LOVE the black sesame mochi bun, which, if you're a fan of mochi, you'll love the bread-chew here. You need to eat them the same day, as they are not the same the day after and/or I haven't figured out how to bring them back to life. (they get hard) Today, however, I grabbed a tray and got some for a friend also. I tend to pick black bean filled buns and pastry because I'm a TOTAL FAN OF BLACK BEAN. You'll be AMAZED at how filled their buns are!! There is NO SKIMPING here!! I specifically liked the coarse black bean which has a great texture!! Unfortunately, I didn't take a photo, but the lima bean filled cake "manju" (Japanese name) was amazing. It was so fresh and delicious and the lima bean also had great texture. They also had a chocolate meringue cookie that resembled a chewy chocolate cookie I get at another bakery, but theirs was different. Since it was meringue based, it was very crunchy and also had nuts, but not chewy at all. Still great tho!! Next time, I will definitely post photos and I'll be back again soon!! They have a great variety every time I come, but not necessarily the same buns/pastries which makes this stop also so fun!! read more

Small bakery in a plaza with multiple restaurants and a grocery. Lots of baked pastries that are traditionally Korean and all delicious : try the creamy custard filled pastry, further and cream flaky type croissant, soft and white fingers of pastry , also carries whole cakes but I haven't had any chance to try those. Quiet lady served me, I'm pretty certain she is also the baker and owner. Clean shelves were stocked. I refrigerated the creamy or custard filled pastries and they held up well for several days. Perfect for afternoon snack or with a morning coffee. read more

Fruit cake is good and exceeded our expectations. Cake is soft and fluffy and the fruit inside is very fresh. Cake is not too sweet and it's savory. I will definitely be back to try their other flavors. Cashier is nice and gave us candles for my birthday and a plastic cake knife with our purchase. The store is small but has a good selection of bread as well. read more

Ye Wool Bakery - Fruit cake vanilla with blueberries and strawberries inside. - Bakeries Near Me - La Palma, California

Once upon a time, another delightful Yelp-worthy find! We were looking for some good buns, pastries, and/or rolls. We were so glad to find this small bakery. We arrived later in the day, so were lucky to find some delicacies were still available. The almond bun, red bean bun, cinnamon pastry, and walnut roll were all light, flaky, and the layers of light crunch made them noteworthy. We will be back. The end. read more

I needed birthday cake and didn't order in advance. I was able to get one even though it was the end of the day. They only had a few but the fam loved the cake. Everything looked really good. I told my family where I got it and was told they have the best cream puffs. But they sell out very early in the day. I wi definitely be back to try them. read more

Do not go here. The lady behind the cashier is extremely rude and has no concept of what customer service is. She will not acknowledge you and seems absolutely miserable to be working there. I also saw her cough in one of her hands before handling some pastries when helping another customer. Disgusting. I walked right out after witnessing that. read more

**December 2023: Saturday Early Afternoon Visit** I had visited this bakery in the past and was in the market for a delicious "not too sweet cake." When I came to Yelp to look at photos some of the recent reviews made me concerned that perhaps the quality had gone down, and that it was no longer what it use to be. I was tasked to get a cake for my mom's birthday and I obviously didn't want to disappoint. Regardless, I decided to take a chance and see for myself. When I entered there were a fairly good selection of cakes. I was super curious to try the sweet potato, but the fruit cake just looked so majestic that I opted for that. I also saw some croquettes that looked as if they were freshly baked so I picked up two of those as well. After I left a swarm of middle-aged asian women flocked to the store to buy cakes, so I'm glad I got mine while the display case still have options. When I saw my parents I gave them each a croquettes and my dad liked it so much he asked me where I got it. I guess when I'm in La Palma I'll be grabbing more of those lol As for the cake - it was a huge hit! The cake itself was moist, soft and spongy, and the cream was fluffy, light and a tad sweeter than Taiwanese bakeries but my whole family thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm somewhat surprised at some of the poor reviews, because I had a really positive experience. For my 10 inch fruit cake it was $38, which I can guarantee you would have costed $50+ at any other Asian bakery, without compromising quality, and the Korean woman who helped me was very nice. I even got candles and a cake knife! I absolutely give this place two thumbs up. If you're debating on whether you should make a visit I don't think you'd be disappointed. Bon Appetit! read more

Two thumbs up. Little pricy but tastes really good. Have to come certain time otherwise mg choice of bread is all sold fast

파운드케익이 맛있어요. 다른 빵도 먹어봐야 겠네요. 단팥빵도 맛있다고 하던데 -- 가격도 비교적 싼것 같아요. 파리바케트등은 터무니 없이 비싼데 -- 서비스는 어떤지 모르겠네요. read more

I went in to buy a cake but left my card in the car so went back to get it but the lady was so bothered she refused to sell me the cake! She said everything sold out. In 2 min. I was shocked. I don't want to assume she's racist, she's just rude per many of the comments. I won't be returning. Not law enforcement friendly. Lots of health violations - If i would have seen that before I would have never walked in! I will be following up on the open case ones! read more

A variety of baked goods and pastries that will satisfy both a western and eastern palate. Prices so affordable. The cakes are light, not too sweet, and delicious. Cream puffs always hit. read more

Cashier or worker soooooooooooooo rude all the time. But bread is delicious. Won`t see her again. read more

Always good baked goods and friendly ladies. Got blueberry cake and fruit cake. Blueberry cake was better. If you need a larger size cake, order a few days ahead. Their prices are much better than other chain korean bakeries. Next time I will plan ahead and order in advance. Their castellammare is good too. I usually get the green one (either green tea or 쑥, but can't remember which). It's good either way. read more

These people are so rude. And they are liars. It's this La Palma branch. I brought my son to get some korean donuts and they said they weren't ready. So I went to the soup restaurant next door to eat some soup while the donuts were being prepared. As I was eating my soup, I saw a lady walk in with those supposedly not ready donuts. I was pissed. So i dropped my spoon and walked over to Ye Wool. And the liar lady in the front said she just got sold out. Mind you, I had my 7 year old with me. These donuts were for him. I think the donuts are on reserve. And the liar lady in the front is on a permanent rag. Do not go here. read more

Best korean bakery in oc bread is actually fresh and so soft unlike UNLIKE other places

Customer service is great. My boyfriend turned fiancé turned husband told me about this place 3 years ago since I LOVE bread. This place has the tastiest bread especially my husband loves the salad bread aka 야채빵 and its recommended to call in before to hold some because they are sold out instantly. I love their 찹쌀 도넛. I lived off of the cream bread when I was pregnant. read more

Small Korean bakery, with a lot of goods baked in-house. Two locations (in La Palma, the other in Buena Park). Prices are reasonable, and the two items we got (one roll, and one scone) were fresh and very soft. Good place to stop by for a quick sweet bread snack. read more

Rare Korean bakery w/ all the goods. Our family have been coming here since probably before I was born. We get all our birthday cakes here. Their cream puffs are nostalgic for me. They also have new items to trend w/ the times. I highly recommend trying them out!!! read more

December 2021 Since the pandemic the location has signs that only allow 1 customer in at a time and must wear mask. This location offers a variety of different pastries. Prices can vary from .75 +. We like to always get the half loaf of gombo bang (peanut bread), garlic bread, cream puffs. We haven't tried the cakes or the rolls but I'm sure they're good since it's the first thing that sells out first. They take both cash and card. read more

I finally got there around 10 this Sat. Most of my fav breads, pastries were on the shelves. Hallelujah!!! I could buy 4 croquettes and 3 custard cream breads. Thank God!! Lots of customers are in and out at the bakery. It was so busy but it was worthy to get there to buy the fresh baked breads. I made it today. Yay!!! read more

Super yummy food! Fresh and delicious. Great prices too. Friendly and helpful staff. Smells wonderful and very clean.

I've moved away but when I'm in the area to visit I always try to pop in for a pastry. I've been coming here since I was a child, almost 20 years ago. This place has been open for decades! Small, homey, korean bakeries just leave a nostalgic feeling in me. My mom always got my birthday cakes here, assorted fruit cakes with fresh cream. Support your local bakery! read more

I used to go here a lot but I reduced my visiting times due to their bad customer service. Once you enter the store, you don't even hear say "Hi" nor "Thank you" after you pay. No greetings, not welcomed feeling at all. Even online store replies you an email saying "Thank you". read more

Kids and I decided to get a snack after their piano lesson nearby. We went in to an empty store and as we browsed the lady at the counter just looked annoyed. When we finally picked our bread we go over to the counter and my 8 year old daughter tries to make small talk and tells her that her store is so cute. Lady didn't even acknowledge her and was so rude. When I walked out I asked my 8 and 10 year old if they thought she was mean and they both agreed that she seemed extremely unhappy. I thought maybe I was being a Karen so I yelped them and sure enough the lady is notorious for being awful. There are so many pastry stores around the area, but we wanted to give a small hole it the wall some service. Better going down the street to tours les jours for bread. read more

I got the roll cake here before and it was pretty crumbly and did not taste as fresh. The bread and the pastries are the best go-to here and is cheap compared to most franchises (except 85). The service sometimes feels off as I have been coming here for years. Most of the time, the lady is very kind, but there are those moments where she tosses the change at the table or has a standoffish tone when speaking to the customer. read more

Small family owned business. Delicious fresh bread and baked goods (red bean, custard, sausage, etc). I love going here to get their fresh loafs, only $5. I think it's better than the Sara Lee brand. Plus you're supporting a local family owned bakery. With the current state, there is a line outside the shop. One person is allowed inside the store at a time. Socially distancing. read more

Terrible customer service. We bought bread at 9AM and noticed a pungent smell coming from the bread. It was definitely expired and old and they didn't even say sorry. read more

Good and yummy Friendly service too. Great delicious and good price too. Recommended bakery read more

This is my go to cake place for everything. Every time there is a birthday i try to buy it from here. The lady owner is super nice and sometimes offers free bread if u buy a lot of baked goods. They also have these cute, thin candles that they give you with the cake. Taller and shorter candles to represent different amounts. read more

Quality going downhill...I buy the mocha cake here every couple of months and it's been getting drier and the cream sour like it's been sitting out too long. I remember when it used to be moist and sweet. Sorry, can't do with a sour cake. They must know how long they've had something inside the display but they don't care as long as some sucker buys it. Speaks to the quality of this establishment read more

BEST BLUEBERRY CAKE EVER. That glaze on the cake is so heavenly. Cream puffs are so good, too! PS - Ajumma there is SUPER SWEET. Don't let the negative reviews of rude owners sway you. Just walk in with a smile and let the worker know what you want. Kindness goes BOTH WAYS. read more

This is the best Korean bakery in the OC. But also: limited inventory always, disorganized, rude Korean ladies, closed on Sundays. That's how you know it's authentic. read more

Best traditional Korean bakery, go early if you want the sausage bread. I love this spot and I would go everyday if I can live off the bread. Try the gombo bread (peanut), sausage bread, croquet (not sure if the spellings right lol), twist sugar donut, sweet potato, and the butter cream. Literally so bomb and it's so cheap, not like some of the other bakeries where one bread is $5. All the little breads are worth $2-3 and they sell loaves as well but I can't recall how much they were. read more

First time I tried this place for a cake. The mocha cake was good. It has chopped walnut in between the fillings and it's not so sweet, it's light, moist and the family like it! The cake is reasonably priced as well. We'll come back again and try other cake flavors. read more

Ye Wool Bakery - Mocha cake - Bakeries Near Me - La Palma, California

I got to say this is one of my favorite korean bakeries. I definitely recommend this place esp. for their cake with the layer of green and red beans with walnut and butter.. drools! Prices are reasonable and the quality is great. however, to make sure they have your item in stock, please call them before you go. One time I had to come back twice just for the item I needed.. Parking can also get a little bit hectic on the weekends, but other than that, I def. recommend this place. read more
