Stopped by again (was closed Wednesdays when I first visited) and finally got to try the goodies!…read moreAlthough I didn't have time to find parking for a stay - it's a small cute dessert shop with limited seats. I am a fan of the pandan flavor desserts and bought two that I wanted to try. One being a roll cake and the other layer cake. The pandan roll cake with taro I was told is a specialty that they only have on weekends. It was really flavorful, moist and spongy, just perfectly touched with a dash of sweetness in both the cake and the cream - I personally don't like overly sweet foods, and this is just perfect for me and my mom. I'm equally pleased with the layer cake as well it was very fresh and have that "QQ" texture - deliciously chewy and bouncy. This too, just hit right for me on the gentle sweetness, the pandan flavor keeping the spotlight in this dessert. My mom and I are big fans of these desserts. We just came back trying out others pandan layer cakes in Downtown Flushing and this shop beats them by a large margin. I hope to come back more when we could even though this shop is quite a distance for us.

The bakery itself is clean and welcoming, making it a pleasant place to browse and enjoy treats. Overall, Shinpuru Baking delivers top-quality baked goods and excellent service. I'll definitely be returning and would highly recommend it to anyone who loves fresh, tasty pastries.

Not too sweet desserts that go well with tea big time. I like their version of the classic sweet topping bun with a filling. The lightly sweet crumbly cookie-like topping on the fluffy bread-like bun filled with red bean paste was pretty good! I noticed that they also had mini mooncakes of various flavors. Be sure to see what you might want to try at the Apollo Bakery if you happen to be in Flushing. The associate at the bakery was tactful and patient when ringing up my order. A small bakery with some unique desserts.

The mousse was light and naturally fruit flavored; each pastry had real fresh fruit. The mango was my favorite though the mangos had a bite to them as if it wasn't in season or ripened enough. Still, it was my favorite and I give it full points for flavor and texture. The chocolate exterior gave a good crunch on every bite. The bakery itself is clean and has nice lighting. I would recommend. The cashiers speak primarily Chinese so that's something to take into consideration but they do also speak English. The staff were friendly and efficient.

I only tried the Chinese pastries. They're on the flaky side, so I recommend eating them on an actual tray, a bowl, or with some paper underneath because they're pretty delicate and crumbly. Some of them are spongy, like this cake thing, and others are flaky, like a cookie. I recommend 85° Bakery Café for a quick pit stop. The service is pretty nice, and the ambience is very Chinese. You can't go wrong with that.

While this is technically tiramisu, I don't note any tiramisu technique applied to this cake. It's just layered like it.

First, the egg tarts were so bland as if they forgot to add sugar in the recipe. Not sure if it was just an off day or if it normally tastes like that. Next, the matcha croissant was nothing special either. The flavor of the cream was barely matcha flavored, it tasted more floral with a hint of matcha. Texture of the croissant was also just average. The sweet potato mochi bread was the most stand out of the 3. There was a nice sweet potato flavor and the mochi was nice, although overall it was mostly just average as well. Hopefully it was just an off day for their baked goods, the space is relatively small but it was cozy. I could see people getting work done while there.

No line here but everything was nicely displayed. L didn't want anything at first but he picked out a ham and cheese croissant and I got 2 egg tarts. We ate them hrs later but surprisingly they were pretty good. I liked the egg tarts. Different than the usual Chinese bakery. The egg tarts were very flakey, more like a French bakery than Chinese. The ham and cheese were flavorful, I only had a bite but I think they used maybe cheddar cheese and hopefully not American. I bought more egg tarts my second visit. Prices were okay.. cheaper than the chain bakeries that are so overpriced that doesn't even taste good. Next time I might try one of their pretty cakes.
