I ordered a little bit of everything - chocolate, vanilla, blue corn, churro, and strawberry hibiscus. It was a bit of a bummer that my strawberry conchas didn't make it into the box. Not sure what happened - I was chatting with the cashier/concha server so maybe they were distracted. I also should have checked my order. The conchas were SOOOOO good. Very soft and fresh - not too sweet. The chocolate-y flavor wasn't really coming through to me. And the vanilla and churro flavors were very similar. The most prominent was the blue corn - and I think this was my fave. Comparatively speaking to other conchas at a panderia, $5 a concha is a bit steep. They are really tasty tho and definitely worth it. Think of it as a top shelf concha. Oh and the good news is, they're vegetarian friendly - they only use butter. I'll be back next time I'm in the San Fran area.

Ambiance: Homey feeling with a display of the baked conchas for you to choose from. There does appear to be a selection of six different flavors to choose from. Service: Friendly staff that welcome you upon entering and quick to help serve you with also a relatively short wait time as well between ordering and pick up. Food: The churro concha tasted like a roll with cinnamon sugar on top. The bread was light and soft though it did taste a little dry. The price is slightly high at $5 per concha which are slightly cheaper when buying in a bundle. Overall, I'd have to check out a few of their other flavors and I'd be interested in trying their Pan De Muerto when it comes back again.

The order was incorrect and the delivery was over 30 minutes late from the vendor. It was impossible to get a hold of the vendor on the day of because the number on their invoice is out of service. Marley's Treats did not even offer any service recovery or refund for the significantly incorrect order. Instead of getting 2 dozen ube cupcakes, we received 4 dozen ube cookies that were flavorless and dry. Would not recommend for catering.

The kare almond fudge has toffee or something coffee-flavored in it, I'm not a fan of coffee usually but I thought it was still yummy overall. I really liked the ube, that flavor came through really strongly. The main downside was that the bottom of the cone probably wasn't sealed properly, and since it was hot outside, the cone quickly started dripping ice cream out of the bottom, so it ended up being messier to eat.

They didn't have scoops available for my favorite--their yogurt (plain), but no problem, because they had it in a pint which I grabbed from their fridge! They do have the yogurt lemon cookie for scoops though, which is also very good! This place can be easy to miss if you're just walking by, so take my word for it and try this place out! They also make dessert crepes here Staff is friendly and my other favorite flavor is the dragon fruit sorbet. It's very light & airy.

Unlike most gelatos that we've tried, LCL's take on gelato here is much more airy and less fatty (read no "cheese pull" stretch on this here like the others. Hmm.. That said, both the Jasmine and Espresso Crunch flavors were still pretty enjoyable and not overly sweet in the least. 5/5 for flavor, 3.1/5 for texture.

But when you look at what's in front of you that's been neatly setup for everyone to see, THAT'S Cru Chocolate. Opened only from Thursday to Sunday, from 9 in the morning till noon, this is where anyone get their cacao fix! So glad to see Cru Chocolate gained Yelp recognition in a month or two. I was worried that it'll remain as a pop-up. There weren't many people who came to Cru Chocolate while Sohn continues to have a lot of customers who're crazy for Korean food. At least it never took long for me to have a nice shot cup of hot drinking cacao! I used to have pure hot drinking 73% Ecuadorian cacao made with just cacao and hot water from Christopher Elbow Chocolate. This time, I have a 100% Pure Drinking Cacao from Cru Chocolate! Anyone dare to step up to the challenge? Here in the heart of Dogpatch, there's still many places to see past the Chase Center building. I have yet to go to many places I haven't set foot in. As for the special place that would turn back to Humphrey Slocombe, I would love to hear what the Cru owner has to say.

The bananas are perfectly ripe, flash-frozen so they have that ideal creamy texture without being icy, and the chocolate coating is rich and snappy. I went with the classic chocolate-dipped with chopped peanuts with caramel and it was seriously addictive. The banana flavor actually comes through instead of just tasting like frozen sugar. They also had some fun toppings like sprinkles, or crushed toffee that looked incredible. Portions are generous for the price, the service is super friendly and fast, and everything felt fresh. Perfect little treat on a warm day. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. I'll definitely be returning for another one soon. Highly recommend!

Well, they were cold…read more.. Pop Nation makes and sells popsicles and was doing so recently at the Stern Grove Festival. They were a fast alternative to the nearby food trucks but a substitute for nothing. Using natural ingredients, two of us had the Thai Tea and Salted Chocolate popsicles ($6 apiece) and neither of us had anything wonderful to say about either. What we both thought was that each was too mild in flavor to do anything more than satisfy a desire for something cold. If it takes unnatural ingredients to improve the taste I'd be all for it. The vendor was steering the folks ahead of me to the Pineapple popsicles. Perhaps you would enjoy a tastier experience with one of those.

La Victoria holds a corner shop (decorated with cultural symbols and colors) featuring shelves and display cases of cakes, breads and other snacks ready to be consumed or taken home for a supplement to a meal as well as served for breakfast with a nice cup of coffee. Like many Mexican bakeries, you'll find the signature concha, a yeast raised bun encased with a buttery crust often colored to give them a bit of flare. At La Victoria, you'll find a variety of these buns alongside other goodies certainly to have you salivating! Reasonably priced, it's no surprise that you'll end up filling a bag or two with a little bit of everything to give them all a taste. You won't really go wrong with any of them unless you're not a fan of sweets. Although not overly stuffed with sugar, you will find that almost everything has a bit of sugar in it which will activate your tastebuds but possibly impact your waistline and blood sugar. Eat responsibly or be sure to have a party to share with! Situated in the bustling neighborhood, you'll find some street parking here and there but you may need to walk a block or two. Pick up with their friendly staff is fortunately very easy and quick so hopefully it can be a stop that can be included in your errand schedule. For those coming out of town, consider getting dropped off while your driver makes a round. When we arrived, there were a few families making selections of bread from the display cases but aside from them, there weren't too many patrons inside. They don't have much seating and most customers seem to come and go, bag of goodies in hand as they left. We ended up getting an assortment and before pictures were taken, some were consumed in the car ride home. One distinct one we got was in the shape and color of a pumpkin. Cute and creative! The crunchy crust had a good texture upon biting in and the bread was pretty good. It was a bit dryer than I'd liked but paired well with coffee or milk. Overall, La Victoria seems like a great place to stock up on breakfast buns or desserts for the week as busy professionals may not have the time or energy to prepare a more elaborate meal in the mornings. It's great for bulk purchases for office meetings, potlucks and parties. The prices are reasonable and its mom and pop feel makes it a great representation of the working families and community members living in this area - definitely a place to continue supporting!
