I've been coming to Pampanga's Bakery in Artesia for a while now, and it's long overdue that I actually give them their flowers. If you are looking for authentic, comforting Filipino baked goods and kakanin, this is the gold standard. Every time I walk in, the shelves are loaded with staples. Their selection of kakanin is also massive. The **Puto Assorted** and **Puto & Kutsinta** packs ($3.90) are always perfectly soft, vibrant, and fresh, and they have massive trays of **Biko Pandan** and **Cassava Cake** if you're feeding a crowd. For the savory side, the **Chicken Empanadas** and **Fried Lumpia** always hit the spot. And of course, there's the **Turon**. Yes, the price has risen to $1.05 a piece, but honestly? It's just modern economics, and it is still worth every single penny. It is still the absolute best of the best--shattered-crisp, perfectly caramelized on the outside, and packed right. The staff is always fast, the bakery smells like heaven, and the quality has stayed incredibly consistent over the years. Don't be like me and gatekeep it...if you haven't been, stop by!

Stopped in yesterday to pick up some of these little bread rolls (senorita rolls). The lady was…read morereally nice. We took these to a gathering for an early Easter celebration. There was 9 of us and we ate all of them. I bought a box of 25. Everyone loved them! One of the guest told me she ate 5. They are that delicious I saw other baked goods there but went specifically for these little sweet rolls. They come out piping hot . They are delicious hot and room temperature. We also bought them the day before and they were still every bit as delicious the next day. Very small place just get your order and leave no sitting area. Definitely will return to buy more!

Fluffy dough with butter and sugar (if you're in a diet, you won't be after these) and best when it is warm. It is a great deal for the quantity and quality of the pastries. These are always my go to for pot lucks because it's simple yet tasty. And if it gets cold, you can rewarm it up in the microwave. I'm tempted to try the mochi donuts but haven't had the chance. They also have flavored senorita bread on the side when you walk in but I haven't tried it, although the Nutella sounds good! Cash or card for payment. Plenty of parking.

Now I forgot how roomy this place is, It's super clean and a great place for a quiet hang out with friends. It was pretty busy when I came which was around 10 am. The drinks were the most ordered from what I've seen. I ordered my drink and it was actually prepared already but my buzzer never rang. I watched what I thought would be my coffee stay there thinking it may be someone else because my buzzer had no buzzed at all. I finally went up to ask where my coffee is just for them to hand me the coffee and say they are waiting on my bread. What bread? It's literally in the bag that I'm holding. So that kind of annoyed me. But things happen. Service was still good like last time. The garlic and cream cheese bread threw me off. The saltiness of the garlic bread with sweet cream cheese worked really well. However there was a bit too much sweet cream cheese for my liking but a combination that worked. The mochi corn had custard and corn. It was pretty good. Not something I'd be addicted to. But it was good. The sweet potato was disappointing. The sweet potato inside tasted like regular potato. Not very sweet. Overall my experience did get better. I want to try these butter mochi I saw next time I go.

HONEY BAKERY is a nondescript little shop that sits in an old strip mall, and to give you an idea…read moreof how good it is, they've NEVER had to make upgrades to their decor to increase appeal--it's exactly the same as it's been since the 80s. I've always loved walking in there, inhaling the oven-fresh aromas like a FIEND, ever since I was in grade school-- I'll turn 51 in a few days. You have ONE slice of their special occasion shortcakes (strawberry, mango, and I think one more variety), and you instantly become a new customer--this has been their calling card for DECADES, and they EXPONENTIALLY grow their clientele with each cake sold (potentially a new customer per slice). Their customers are SO loyal that--as far as I can tell--Honey Bakery isn't even on social media--word-of-mouth, even in 2026, is all that's needed--their baked goods speak for themselves. I highly-recommend their MILK BREAD (you'll be willing to make a special trip here, SOLELY to pick up a bag or two)--if you're a bread-lover, you'll find their freshly+baked loaves to smell intoxicating, and let's see if you can stop yourself from snacking on JUST one slice, right out of the bag....they're REALLY addictive. They come THICK- and THIN-SLICED, but thick especially sells out quickly by mid-morning, so CALL AHEAD & RESERVE your order. As I was reminded by reading another customer's review, payment is CASH-ONLY.

This review is mainly for their pastries, since I also haven't tried their cakes in a while, but…read morepresumably those are still good. Every time I've gotten a pastry from here in the last 5-8 years they have slowly gotten more and more dense lol. I only ate one pastry, but this pastry had maybe 100 solid layers and I feel like I just stuffed my self at KBBQ... I miss old soft pastry. I used to love their pork sung pastry too, but now it's a pork sung dense bread with a pastry blanket on top. This is a mom and pop shop so I feel like they either hired a new baker or one took over and has a taste for very dense bread and textures... honestly texture is not bad, but way too filling and heavy for me.

To be clear, I only come here for their milk tea. You can get milk tea, coffee, or half milk tea…read morehalf coffee. It's on the watery side, but if you find somewhere else that sells $3.5 milk tea in this economy, call me asap! The store is in 99 ranch so it's pretty convenient and they are fast with their service. It's bakery is pretty small, but there's never been an issue for me of being too busy.

The taro taste was pleasantly mild but wonderful. After today (fiasco at my telemedicine appt, don't ask, I'm still fuming from within). I really needed some comfort foods. TGIF Folks!

Then I remembered I've been wanting to try this place, so we decided to grab our post meal sweets here. We ordered 2 flan cupcakes, 1 crack cheesecake and 1 regular upside down halo halo. Everything was so good. I devoured the halo halo and the cupcake. I will need to eat the cheesecake tomorrow, but based on how good the other two were, I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy the cheesecake just as much. Now that I know what I've been missing out on, I'll be coming in as much as I can here on out lol.

We worked with Jay throughout the whole process and he was a pleasure to work with! My husband and I were recommended this bakery by our friends who purchased their wedding cake and birthday cakes from here within the last couple years. Through our friends, we've tried the mango mousse and chocolate cake and we knew we had to get our wedding cake from here, too. We first had a cake tasting as I wanted to try some of their specialty flavored cakes that is not offered at most bakeries. I've always loved Indian desserts and the fact that they had Indian desserts flavored cake was so exciting for me! When my husband and I were deciding which flavors to try for the cake tasting, he was very skeptical on trying the Indian cake flavors I wanted to try and boy, oh boy, was I in for a big surprise! My husband LOVED the Indian flavors that we tasted and we had the most difficult time trying to choose which flavors we wanted to order for our wedding cake. The tasting was so, so good and we cannot wait to order more future cakes from here to try all the different flavors of the cakes they make here! We ended up ordering the mawa malai and Ferrero rocher flavors for our wedding cake and additional the mango mousse and chocolate flavored bite size pastries. I provided a reference photo of what we wanted our cake to look like and it came out even more beautiful than the reference!!! There were no crumbs leftover from both the cake and the pastries! Our guests kept complementing how beautiful our cake was and they absolutely LOVED our cakes and couldn't stop talking about how moist, light, and flavorful our cakes were! My husband and I look forward to purchasing all our future cakes from here!!!

This was my first time visiting Bakers & Baristas but not my first time trying there macaroons…read more My daughter has been treating me to macaroons on special occasions and I absolutely love them! I can't have them from anywhere else because these hit the spot so hard that no one can compete. I personally have not tried anything else, but my kids have enjoyed other treats from this place. They are located in Cerritos at a very busy shopping plaza and there's plenty of parking. I didn't expect the bakery to be an actual restaurant. There was a good crowd, sitting at tables and eating and drinking. They have about a dozen different flavors of macaroons. You can't go wrong with any of them, but my top favorite are the Birthday, Fruity Pebble, Horchata, Cappuccino and Ferrero Rocher. They make nice gifts too, as they can put it in a treat box in an ice brown paper bag. I definitely need to come back and try their drinks and something else from their menu.

I've been here before and honestly wasn't a fan of their breakfast. Their drinks were decent…read morethough, and after eating teriyaki in Gardena, I was craving something sweet, so we decided to stop here again. I ordered a hot salted caramel latte. They charge an extra dollar to substitute oat milk, so I kept the regular milk. My son got the cappuccino cake, and I chose the ricotta pistachio cake. The pistachio cake was a little dry -- not terrible, but noticeable. However, my hot salted caramel latte was actually very good and paired really well with the dessert. The music and atmosphere were nice, and there were only a few patrons inside, which made it feel relaxed. However, there were a couple of dirty plates left sitting on tables while one employee seemed more focused on organizing napkins instead of clearing them. I also wasn't too sure how fresh the cakes were since they had been sitting in the display. Whether I come back really depends on the flavor and quality of the food and drinks next time around.
