Bake Culture in Flushing (located inside the New Age Supermarket at 136-20 38th Ave) offers a selection of Taiwanese-style baked goods, including highly egg tarts, pork floss buns, and Japanese jiggly cheesecakes. While slightly pricier than traditional Chinatown bakeries, items are individually wrapped to retain freshness. The egg tarts are recommended for their silky texture and flaky crust. It is worth trying their savory-sweet buns (especially the scallion pork floss) and the cute animal-shaped breads. Because each item is individually sealed, buns and cakes tend to stay moist and soft for a few days. The bakery also labels products containing meat with preparation times, which many customers appreciate for transparency. Prices are somewhat higher than typical Flushing bakeries, but they frequently run deals like "buy 4 get 1 free". Whole cakes are also considered reasonably priced for the neighborhood. The place features an exterior entrance independent of the main supermarket and is open late, making it ideal for a quick dessert fix. I find the service as "no frills" and limited, functioning more as a grab-and-go spot than a sit-down cafe. read more

It's a small bakeshop located inside a supermarket. Shop is closing in half hour so there was nothing much to choose. There are few seats/ tables to seat in if preferred to dined. Drinks ( hot and cold ) can be avail. I see their promotion of buying certain number of goodies and you'll get the next item free but, only few left for each kind are left and can't make it to the required number. We end up buying an item or two for each kind that's left. Pricing is affordable. I liked the custard , it's not that sweet but it still have the sweetness I desired. The rest we purchased will be tried when I get home. Check this spot if in the area. read more

Inside of the New Age Mart, this branch of Bake Culture is quite convenient if you have to go shopping anyway. The shop serves some decent quality baked goods and pastries. They have a sizable selection for a relatively small store. Service feels somewhat lackluster at times. read more

Better than Fayda and Taipan, but could be better. The prices are on the higher side for their buns, but the prices are decent for cakes. It's located inside New Age Supermarket. They do have their own entrance. They run deals such as buy 4 get 1 free, which make prices better. I do find it odd that sometimes their breads are in the refrigerator, which their freshness questionable. The service is no frills. There are 2 very small tables to sit inside. My kids love their bunny hotdog bun which is cute. read more

Hidden bakery in Flushing Queens! Egg tarts is a must! Location: It is located in Flushing Queens. It is beside a grocery so you won't miss it. No seat in tables. And huge parking on the side. Service: not much interaction. Just get what you want and pay. Food: Huge varieties of cakes, breads, cookies, pies and tarts! I only got the egg tarts here and it was good! So silky soft inside and the crust is perfect! Price rating: 5/10. To be honest the price is not bad for all the bake goods. I will definitely come back here try their other bake goods and breads. read more

Convenient bakery located next to / inside a Chinese grocery store ( New Age 興旺超市）。I especially like that each bread is individually sealed. It stays soft and moist for at least 2-3 days. Great variety of bread to choose from. Lately when I get there late 7:30 pm ( closes at 8 pm), it's buy 3 get one free. Staff said the promotion changes depends on how many bread left. Recently I saw a new sign for Mon and Thur only buy one get one 50% off. It says summer cake special offer. I wonder if it applies to cake only. One star deducted due to inconsistency of bread filling. Two red bean bread: one is filled with red bean heavily while the other is totally opposite. You can just feel the weight difference in two bread. read more

I've gotten bread here a few times over the past few months and it's definitely yummy- a little pricey compared to the typical Chinese bakeries in flushing, but still yummy. My friend told me she's been getting the milk tea from here quite often, so we decided to get some after we got lunch nearby. I got a bubble milk tea for my brother and a lychee green tea for myself. The milk tea was good! It reminded me of the milk tea I would get as a kid, back when all the million bubble tea places didn't exist lol! The tapioca wasn't great though, it was too soft and not sweet at all. The lychee green tea was really sweet, even though I asked for less sugar. It has some sort of lychee jelly... tapioca kind of thing on the bottom. The texture was something I'd never had before, but I liked it. I liked both drinks and would probably come back if I were getting groceries or just in the area. read more

Moon Festival day is here! I have waited a while to get some fresh moon cakes (lotus paste with salted egg yolks). My usual go to place has been Fay Da bakery, which makes the best mini moon cakes, which are sized for one person. A friend of mine suggested that I try Bake Culture, which also makes mini moon cakes. I always tell my kids to try new things, so I guess I can't be a hypocrite. On a presentation standpoint, Bake Culture delivers, as each moon cake is packaged in its own plastic clam shell. Once I took a bite, I felt that it was a little dry. There was a little too much breading/crust compared to the amount of lotus paste/egg. For a larger moon cake, you wouldn't likely notice, but for a mini moon cake? Hard to miss. Next year, back to Fay Da Bakery. read more

Bake Culture is one of my go-to bakeries for whole cakes. The prices are very reasonable, with 6 inch cakes for less than $30, and great quality with perfect sweetness in the cream and fluffy batter. They also provide a "Happy Birthday" sign with candles upon request at no additional charge. Love it! I've tried the blueberry cake, chocolate cake, mixed fruit cake, and green tea cake with red bean. All of them are delicious so pick whatever flavor you're feeling for. The pastries are also pretty good, although on the pricier end. I like to buy their egg tarts every now and then, for a sweet treat. As for drinks, I recommend their iced milk tea! read more

Horrible customer service. Deceptive practices with inconsistent pricing. If they were not in the supermarket, they definitely wouldn't survive. Packaging of items is also horrible. Be aware if you want to look at something before buying, the packaging will open and you'll be forced to buy it. If you try to argue with them, they feign ignorance and will only speak Mandarin. read more

Bake Culture is one of my favorite bakeries in Flushing. I've been coming here for awhile now and tried quite a bit. They have a good variety of pastries, breads, cakes and drinks to choose from and most importantly, everything is fresh & I really appreciate their creativity in decorating the breads, making it almost too cute to eat. My favorites are probably the scallion pork floss roll, scallion bread, pork floss bread and egg tarts. I was definitely taking advantage of their $1 egg tarts last year. Their Japanese jiggly cheesecake is pretty good too, tasted almost like Keki. This place is worth trying out if you're in the area. Located inside the New Age Market with a large parking lot. read more

We visit Bake Culture when we are craving for Taiwanese pastries. The decor is bright, clean but narrow-spaced. Their product line-up is various with decent price. We were there for their pineapple bun but they ran out that day but the Purple Sweet Potato Bread caught my eye. I am a super fan of fillings made from root veggies like sweet potato, Ube, taro... etc so I bought it without hesitation. The purple Sweet Potato Bread was delicious with creamy & rich sweet potato filling. The layer was thin but different from my expectation, I thought it would be chewy like mochi. read more

My MIL raved about this place and their egg custards so I had to see for myself. Nothing to write home about. I feel like its just like any regular bakery. I literally bought 20 egg custards and 6 german tarts and some cute hotdog buns. ( i know i went nuts on the egg tarts, but i live far and i specifically drove here for the rave). Some customers were shocked and said " wow buying so many" lol Not impressed *shrug* Anyway, the cashiers were nice. And theres a supermarket connected to this bakery. So perhaps you can come try their famous german tarts and afterwards go food shopping? Guess whos eating 25 egg tarts? You guessed it... my MIL. read more

I've never been there before in person but I love ordering their cake cups through the Weee! app.

Purchased their loaf bread on Sunday and moldy by Tuesday. Didn't even have chance to eat even a slice. $4 wasted. Also their egg tart advertised as $1 each is packaged in 2 so minimum is $2. Taste like $1 egg tarts! Better to spend $1.5 elsewhere and get better quality. Never buying anything else from 5gis bakery. read more

Bake Culture should be called Babe Culture with spokespeople like these ... Vanness Wu, Calvin Chen and Chun Wu. This is a Taiwanese owned bakery serving Asian and European inspired baked goods. This particular Flushing location is super convenient as it's tucked street side inside/part of the New Age Mart (Chinese Supermarket). I've been coming to this location even before it was Bake Culture and let me tell you, grabbing a bun to snack on while grocery shopping or buying some desserts for after grocery shopping, it's a win win for all. The displays are filled with delectable baked goods ranging from egg tarts (my family's favorite) to cheesecake. Think Chocolate or egg yolk croissants and pork floss buns. I bought the classic roast pork bun and ham and egg this visit; just like what I used to buy at any old school Chinese Bakery only prettier. The dessert fridge carries cheesecake, fruit tarts, and Panna Cotta (sometimes). So they seem to have something for everyone's palette. This is pricier than most old school bake shops but the level of baked goods offered is a cut above the rest. I like the variety they offer and I still get sticker shock at the counter but it's a good thing they accept credit cards! My favorites: cream milk bun, turtle (pineapple) bun, hot dog bunny, egg tarts (quickly sells out), and the roast pork bun. The cappuccino is my drink of choice here as is the milk tea. read more

The bread here is surprisingly good. It has texture and a nice bite to it. I get their pork floss roll whenever they have it in stock. They also have a square marshmallow snack thats very good. The black sesame mochi ball and taro bun are tasty as well. I've only been in the evenings and they always have a buy 3 get 4th free special. Will try their cake next time i'm in the area! read more

Happy 700th review to me! I lined up this morning with my dad just before 9:30 AM in the pouring rain for Bake Culture's Grand Opening inside of New Age Supermarket but remember the bakery does have their own entrance. Van Ness Wu (吳建豪 ) and Calvin (辰亦儒) were already inside and having their breakfast. The security guard made us formed three lines then he handed everyone a number because the first 100 customers receive a FREE PASTRY! I was number 30 and my dad was number 34. We were supposed to head inside at 10:15 am which things led to around 11ish. There were many reporters interviewing them. Later on, the security guard started pulling out people from the lines that have reserved vouchers...I didn't know about that ::sad face:: The staff was promoting 3 flavored croissants (6 in a box) which you must purchase at a price of $28 in order to get autographs from Vanness and Calvin. At first, they were letting in 5 people from the three lines along with 5 people with the reserved vouchers...jeez christ it was such a long process! Me and my dad finally got inside wooo hooo...the girl to our right was collecting the tickets and the girl to our left was handing out the FREE PASTRY...an egg tart! OMG, Vanness and Calvin were just chilling at the table on my left as I was taking pictures of their baked good for Yelp of course...=) I was STAR STRUCK man =) I smiled at them and they smiled back *hubba hubba* made my heart beat...OMG, I love Vanness since he was in F4 and who can forget Meteor Garden 1 & 2 which I have on DVDs baby! When you buy up to $10, you can get a $10 voucher or take your prize with spinning the wheel. I took my chance with the wheel baby! I grabbed Cream Cheese Bread, Bacon Croissant, Pineapple Roast Pork Bun Mini, and etc and had to add a Strawberry Panna Cotta because I was under $10. The price points are inexpensive. The sticker on the bag indicated your receipt for your transaction. I walked over to the supermarket where I can spin the wheel. Woohooo received a coupon card for my next visit. Today definitely made my day =) Note: Many moons ago this location used to be a movie theater where my brother and I saw Power Rangers =) read more

Came around 9:30am on a Saturday because I was scared things would've run out by then but it turns out they didn't bake everything yet and it didn't come out. Such as the egg tarts. I didn't see any at all but the cashier said the minis were done and went up to get me a box of 9 for $7. When I came back later in the day around 5pm the regular egg tarts and etc were out. The selection was plenty and the flavor on most was great. I bought a bunch of buns for my family and friends and I only heard great things. I even bought an Oreo cake for my fiancé and it was good, not to sweet at all and airy. The 2nd Chinese cake I actually like, the first being from Yeh's bakery. The prices are also very good and the cashiers were so friendly. You can always place a cake order in advance! read more

I remember I roasted this place two years ago and gave them a one star review for the quality of their bread. Even got a personal message from the owner at the time, but I never changed my review or opinion. Well I just started going here for the past few weeks and they significantly improved their breads. In the past ,two main issues I had was , I was paying $2.50 for a bread that labeled has pork or whatever filling in it, but it was 90% bread and very tiny filling. In addition to that, the bread wasn't moist and fresh as it is now, it used to be crumbly and crusty. Also, in the past their options were so limited in which unless you went at the opening time,all the good stuff ran out. Now even though I go late , they have a lot of variety to choose from. Great place to stop buy and pick up some bread. read more

I like the atmosphere, culture, and the mixed variety of bread they sell. Very tasty.

Have 0 idea about the quality of the food since I gifted it. Bought moon cakes. At $3.50 a piece but get 3 and it's $12 not $10.50. When I brought up the discrepancy "I only work here" oh okay so I guess extra 1.50 is for the nice ass box theyre going to put it in. Nope. Cheap plastic container. (FYI their mooncake box was $28 for 9. ( With box so that was properly priced at $31.50) Theres no point arguing with the workers bc they don't own the place. Thanks also for not giving me a receipt. If I wasn't in a rush i would've gone elsewhere. read more

This bakery is located inside of a supermarket that is right on Northern blvd. Inside, there are lots of breads and pastries available for purchase. There are definitely some unique buns which are in the shape of cute animals. Occasionally, they offer deals for different days of the week on their breads and egg tarts. I found their egg tarts to just be okay. It had a nice outer crust which was very flakey but the custard on the inside was just alright. The ratio of crust to custard also seemed off to me. I prefer there to be a lot of custard but there actually seemed to be way too much crust. read more

Beautifully organised, well-lit displays, courteous staffs, clean and quiet. Another huge plus is that it's connected to a large supermarket! In terms of these Asian-style self-serve bakeries, this chain is the consistently best-scoring. Pricing is very generous considering the portions and quality. There's seating for about 6-8 people in lovely air conditioning too. Worth checking out if you're around the Flushing area! They currently have the $1 egg tart promotion still going. read more

The bakery in this place is great. I'm giving it a five-star, but I do understand where the "not too good" comments came from because I also had the similar experiences an questioning. For the empty rack comments, it is true several months ago because the demand was so high and they could not make enough bakery items to accommodate every customer. But in my recent purchases, it does not seem like the case any more; there were enough for me to buy at different business hours because they adapted the overwhelming demand situation and start to make more. As far as the price goes, it is a little pricy compare to other chain Chinese bakeries, but I can taste the difference between their bakeries and the other Chinese bakeries because Bake Culture use better ingredients. Nevertheless, their price compares to other American or Korean bakeries is still very competitive. read more

This place is literally DO IT FOR THE GRAM! They have cute pastries that everyone loves to take pictures of. And yes they taste good too! It does get crowded and stuff does sell out so get there early, or just deal with the fact that you won't get the cutest thing ever for your GRAM! I had their garlic hot dog in a croissant. And it was good! But for those who cannot handle such a strong garlic taste, you should step aside and let someone else have it. It will keep the vampires and everyone else away! read more

Not sure what the hype is for this place. I went Wed after the grand opening (previous Friday) around noon and when I arrived, most of the shelves were empty. I did see a rack of something behind the counter which looked like mini pineapple buns but the lady at the counter said they were filled with custard. It turns out they were cream puffs which I end up buying to taste. I also picked up a matcha red bean bun, chocolate pineapple bun and a large short bread bun. So the 4 items cost almost 12.00! For 2-3.00 per bun, you would figure they should taste amazing.....NOT. The match red bean was totally tasteless. Not sweet, not salty...just waste of money and calories. My daughter had the chocolate pineapple bun and she was said it was meh and I please don't buy it again. The large short bread bun was the best of the bunch. It was very buttery but maybe a bit too much. I tried toasting it the next day and it was totally wet from the amount of butter used. Think I will skip this place in the future. read more

Honestly very happy that a Taiwanese bakery has opened in Flushing. Not that there aren't other Taiwanese bakeries, but a new trendy one has opened! I personally love their bread, it's soft and the flavors are just right. Nothing too sweet or salty. They have a lot of signature breads that are a must buy whenever you visit. I recommend the seashell bread, chocoholic, lava cheese tart and the german pudding. The other breads are amazing as well. Definitely some hidden gems that you might not think as special for example their Parsley Hot Dog Bread, Scallion Pork Floss Bread Roll and many more. I have to also mention that I love their Pineapple Breads. They have 3 different types, but what i love about their Pineapple Breads is that the crust or top of the bread is nice and crunchy so give the bread a new texture when taking each bite. The bakery is located inside a supermarket and the good thing about that is that there is a parking lot, so you don't have to worry about street parking! Overall, definitely one of the best bakeries that I have had! read more

They don't have even at the store. So don't think that you can get hot and fresh bread or patsy. Asked for coffee with wipped cream or heavy cream. The cashier didn't even know what I was talking about. And they don't have heavy cream nor wipped cream. What a coffee shop. While I was ordering food, the cashier was picking her ear for two times, that made me wanna run away. All sales are talking to each other that didn't focus on their job. I asked for 2 fork and they only gave me . Good luck for them. read more

Located in front of the grocery store is this Taiwanese style bakery. There was a large bread variety and a small fridge case of cakes/tarts. The popular turtle and sheep breads were still available at 6PM on a Saturday night when I visited. You can park on the street or in the supermarket parking lot. Saw the cute pineapple turtle on yelp - taste was ok Tried the coconut bread (sheep shaped one) - it was ok There is a hot dog bunny shape but didn't purchase I liked the custard bread the best Overall it was ok - different to see animal shaped breads in classic Chinese bread flavors. Worth to check out - didn't try any of the drinks but they also had your typical coffee/tea menu read more

Bake culture has very soft and moist cakes! I like bringing them to special events, being that they're not too big and they provide you a cute birthday sign in addition to candles. Cakes I've tried and recommend are the matcha and the blueberry cake. The sponge is very light and makes you feel less guilty about having more! I sometimes get their egg tarts here but usually skip on the other pastries for myself. I've tried a few their pineapple Bao, the taro bread, all being a little on the pricier side and just okay. read more

2/26/18 - Went around noon and there was barely anything left. Took the last bunny hot dog bun. Very unhappy with the way it looked though. Looks like they rushed it and the shape and face was poorly made. Also, one of the ear was broken. As for the taste, nothing special. Taste like a hot dog bun from your regular Chinese bakery. Chocolate bread with walnut did not have much chocolate taste. Only had a bitter taste with a hint of sweetness from the powdered sugar on the top. 3/02/18 - went there 11ish. Had a bit more than last time but still nothing much left to choose from. Got a egg tart? Im guessing it was an egg tart. There was no tag on it. It was decent. Tastes better than regular Chinese bakery egg tarts. It's a lot softer in the middle. read more

I purchased a few pastries here after getting there at around noon time. A lot of the pastries were already gone by the time I got there so there wasn't too much left. It's hidden inside a supermarket, but there are signs outside so it's easy to spot. The breads I got tasted pretty normal (Chocolate bun (I think that's what it was called), and a few other ones. I was kind of hoping that they would have a lot more pastries/bread but I guess I missed out on the timing. There was so much hype around this place, and my mother after finding out about this place through social media, kept saying she wanted to try the breads here. I don't know if it was just me, but I personally wasn't a fan of the breads here. It just tasted normal to me. Overall, this place just isn't my kind of bakery. It's a bit far for me, and it didn't suit my taste buds. read more

Still like coming here because it's in the neighborhood and conveniently located in the Chinese supermarket. Their items are always fresh and taste better than the bakeries in Flushing. But they don't make as much items anymore and the prices have doubled since COVID. I do appreciate that everything is individually wrapped and everything cost more theses days but I think they priced out the senior citizens and the day laborers that I used to see in the morning. I think the price hike affected their business. read more
