Found this place on Instagram, so we drove down from Pasadena...and it was well worth the drive. The store is super cute inside with a fun seating area. I wished we had arrived earlier to be able to enjoy more of the sold out offerings, but next time we'll arrive right when they open. We ordered a dozen crinkle cookies for a Mother's Day lunch - enjoying the sweet ube and the spiced thai tea versions. Both were great compliments to each other - more perfectly sweet and the other a bit more herbal. The chocolate chip cookie was perfect - nice crunchy edges and slightly gooey soft inside. The ube tres leches was a little disappointing as there wasn't any tres leches cake at the bottom, just crumbly graham crackers resting below exquisite ube mousse. It could have been mislabeled, but it was essentially just ube mousse with crumbly graham crackers for texture. The staff were friendly and the store is so fun! read more

I tried to order as many things as I could to give a good review. Everything looked so good so I got the brownie(loved), chocolate cream cheese frosting, chocolate chip cookie(it's good), coffee cake(loved) and banana pudding(not that good) Brownie: delicious! I love dark chocolate and I also like that there was milk chocolate mixed in. The guy that helped me seemed a little lost but it was understandable because he mentioned he was just there to help. He was very helpful and nice. I love the quaint ambiance it made me feel welcomed. read more

Finally had a chance to try this place service was great and staff was very helpfully Place was kept clean they had a variety of different desserts and drinks I got the ube tres leche and ube blondie brownie They were both good but the ube brownie was my favorite! I'm Mexican so the l tres leches was a little dry to my liking and lacked the ube flavor in my opinion I will return to try the other treats they have So if you're in the montebello area and haven't been here definitely give them a try I got a latte as well and it was well made read more

I saw this bakery, go a little bit viral on Instagram and was visiting family in the area so I decided to give it a try and support a small business and let me tell you I was not disappointed. They had so many things to choose from it took me a moment to decide, but I ended up getting their crinkle cookies Which seemed to be popular because a lady came in after and ordered the rest of the ones that they had on the display. I also ended up ordering an Ube cheesecake and a Tres leches cake slices and everything was so delicious but by far my favorite was the Ube cheesecake. It was so unique and delicious 10 out of 10 would recommend can't wait to go back and try some of their other creations. read more

Came across this little gem today and I cannot stress how good these delights are. First the selections are right up my alley for cookies we had Vietnamese coffee, matcha, strawberry, chocolate brownie, pandan and oatmeal cranberry. We also had the ube brownie and ube cheesecake, with a cold brew. Turned around and grabbed a coffee cake along with everything else. Coffee cake was okay kind of underwhelming. Everything besides that was so good! Authentic look and flavors. Madds was super friendly and helpful in explaining all the flavors. Honestly hands down best cookies I've tasted. read more

We visited Butter Lab for the first time on 05/10/2026 in the late morning hours. The person helping us out at the counter, on this somewhat busy morning, kept the flow running nice and smooth (and he was friendly) So, we tried a few things during this visit. Two items for immediate consumption and then some cookies for later. We purchased a dozen of the regular size cookies, including both Ube and Thai Tea. Both of them were excellent, and I felt they were priced appropriately at a dozen for $18. The Thai Tea seriously tasted like you were truly drinking a thai tea. We also shared one large classic chocolate chip cookies (so yummy!) The only thing we didn't understand is that we shared a Ube Tres Leches. I am not sure what was going on. Don't get me wrong, what we ate was very good; however, it was 100% not Tres Leches. It was an Ube Cream with some graham cracker crumble underneath. So, my assumption is that they must have just given us the wrong item. I would love to try the Tres Leches again in the future. Please support his lovely local business. It was a real treat! read more

I was craving something sweet and figured since I live in Montebello, why not try a local bakery I haven't been to yet...The Yelp reviews were great, so I had to check it out for myself. I'm a big chocolate lover and originally came in for a chocolate brownie, but they were unfortunately out. They did have an ube brownie, and it seems like a lot of their desserts feature ube. I also noticed that they use organic and natural ingredients, which I really appreciated. The owner was incredibly kind and even let me sample the ube brownie. For me personally, it was a bit too sweet, but that really just comes down to preference. The chocolate chip cookies had just come out of the oven, so they were super fresh, maybe a little softer and more textured than I typically like, just a bit too raw for me, but still a good cookie overall. I'll admit, I can be a little picky when it comes to desserts. The standout for me was the café de olla latte, absolutely delicious because she made it with care, definitely something I would come back for. While the desserts didn't quite hit the mark for my taste, I still think this spot is worth trying. The owner is genuinely sweet, and the space itself is adorable, very warm, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated with a dessert-inspired theme. Overall, it just might be one of those places that others will love more than I did, but I'm glad I gave it a try... read more

Okay this place is dangerously good! I popped in after work the other day and on my way home to pick up something for my sweet tooth. I walked out with apricot linzer cookies, banana pudding, bread pudding, and the basque cheesecake. Heaven. All of it. I had previously tried the tiramisu and the bread pudding as well as the tres leches, and can say that every dessert item has been exceptionally good. Nothing is overly sweet and portions are good enough to share or devour alone like I did. Will continue to pop in to try more goodies and satisfy my sweet tooth! read more

I had been craving ube crinkle cookies and was searching Yelp for a bakery that sells them when I stumbled upon Butter Lab. Since it was Super Bowl Sunday, I called first to make sure they were open. It took about seven calls before someone finally picked up. I placed a phone order for six mini ube crinkle cookies, one large ube crinkle cookie, and a bag of ube blondie edges. When I arrived, there was only one person working, who looked like the baker and possibly the owner, so I understood why it took a while to answer the phone. Although I had reserved one large ube crinkle cookie, it wasn't included in my order, which ended up being fine because the mini cookies were a good size and felt like a better value at $1.50 each compared to $3.00 for the large one. The crinkle cookies and blondie edges were good. I wish the cookies were a bit more chewy rather than cake-like and less sweet, but they were still delicious and reasonably priced. The blondie edges were a great deal at $3 per bag, especially if you enjoy the edge pieces of brownies. I would return here for the brownie edges. read more

DELICIOUS!! I would definitely come back. Love all the Ube options they had when I went. The cookies are really yummy as well.

From outta town and google map'd for bakeries / sweet treats while in the area. I like ube tres leches, carrot cake cupcake and the Thai tea crinkle. Apricot jam cookie was good too. The corn and saffron crinkle had good flavor too but the sweetness level was quite high for me but I know friends that have that high of a sweet tooth that would love it. Would come back again to try again, thanks! read more

Just visited this bakery and it's cutely decorated with some yummy desserts. The basque cheesecake was delicious along with the ube tres leches. Unfortunately, they were out of the banana pudding so we were unable to try them. Unfortunately, they crinkle cookies weren't too flavorful and not something I would purchase again. The bag of ube blondie ends were thee best deal and tasted great! The service was wonderful. She was so patient and knowledgeable of all that was ordered. A lovely, local gem. read more

This is a great bakery. I was looking into ordering two dozen cookies, and I saw that this place had better pricing than other places I checked out. It was easy to place order and pick up. The Pandan and Ube crinkle cookies were a real hit for a holiday joy. I also tried the matcha latte (not my favorite) and teh manis (so good) along with some other baked goods. read more

I've always seen businesses come and go in that plaza due to the lack of foot traffic and when I saw a IG post about this place I knew I should come and support a local shop. This place is really great! I love that they have unique flavors that most bakeries don't have like ube and pandan! The banana pudding is so good! Not too sweet! I came in just for that but I saw that they had a ube blondie and that was amazing too! Montebello isn't known for many things but these local shops really do bring the community together! I do see myself coming back here in the future, and I really hope to see this place succeed! read more

I noticed this place near me and thought I would try it. We walked in on Valentine's Day for a quick treat and picked up a piece of vanilla basque cheesecake and a corn crinkle cookie. It was so cute and our baked goods were delicious! The cheesecake had such a deep vanilla flavor and was super creamy. The cookie was perfectly sweet and scrumptious. I think it was $8 for the cheesecake and $1.50 for the cookie. The prices were unbelievable for the quality! They had really cute dessert themed stools too so I want to go back and enjoy more dessert there. I'm glad I took the tome to check it out! read more

Got this place bookmarked for a while now and so glad finally got to try them out. Ordered a variety of desserts. Vanilla basque cheesecake was made to perfection. Ube Tres Leche was delicious. Ube Whipped Cheesecake was pretty good. Crinkles cookies (Thai tea, corn saffron, & ube) were tasty. Ube blondies were so good and it came in a big bag. Very nice, sweet, and great service. It's a small lil bakery in Montebello located on Beverly Blvd. Definitely coming back to try their other desserts. read more

Delicious and unique dessert treats. I tried the following : Pandan-coconut crinkle cookies - very good not too sweet, reminded me of Mexican wedding cookies. I barely tasted any coconut. When I first ordered I thought they were matcha flavor because of the color lol They were yummy ! Ube coconut crinkle cookies - loved these ! I'm a sucker for anything ube. Not overly sweet and amazing flavor and texture ! Basque cheesecake - it's very different from the type of cheesecake I'm used to (from Cheesecake Factory) this cheesecake has no crust, it's very creamy and was very delicious. I highly recommend. Tres leches - so moist and the whip cream is so good and buttery tasting this was probably my favorite to try. Perfect amount of sweet ! read more

Butter Lab - Great desserts and drinks! - Bakeries Near Me - Montebello, California

Some things I loved about this bakery: Great customer service and allergen knowledge, and care when it comes to cross contact. Thank you! Makes me feel so much more comfortable getting treats for my daughter. The flavors were unique, and not too sweet. They were on the bitter side. You can tell they use high quality ingredients. Like yhe ube brownie-- you can absolutely taste the ube. The regular brownie had a dark chocolate taste. Maybe a kick of espresso? The basque cheesecake had a delicious burnt exterior that broke up the monotony of the cream cheese filling, making it more enjoyable for my mouth. As for the chocolate mousse it was my least favorite. The cookie crumbles didn't seem especially thought out, and reminded me of a dump cake. The mousse was still good. read more

I've seen this place appear in my searches and finally decided to check it out. It's located along W Beverly Blvd in a small strip of businesses. It's neighbor is the Organica Juice Bar. The space is small, with large counters displaying a variety of desserts. Purple painted walls with minimal wall decorations, and two wall side tables on the left with single chairs. So not much in the room for sitting lots of people, which is fine. The menu is quite simple lattes and desserts, with also bottled juice and water. My bf and I decided to try the Café de Olla for the lattes. It was so good! Everything listed in the description you could taste. The anise in particular was forefront but not overpowering, hints of that cinnamon and orange zest, and sweetened with piloncillo (not the same as brown sugar). It was a tad sweet for me but not a deal breaker. My sweet tooth is terrible, so to see all their desserts on display made me easily tempted. They have brownie edges, which they did not have at the time and learned that they sell out quickly as they only have them when they make the batch for the week. Definitely gonna have to go when they have them in stock. This time we got a basque cheesecake slice and their banana pudding. The cheesecake was delicious, creamy and tangy, but just the right amount of sweet. The "burnt" top gave a nice toasted note with every bite. The banana pudding was delicious as well. The cups are super stuffed with a crumble topping, the vanilla custard and large chunks of banana. It was layered like a parfait with lots custard and banana throughout. The guy helping us was so friendly gave us plenty of time to make a decision and answer questions. Definitely give this a try. read more

Butter Lab - Matcha latte and crinkle cookies ( ube an pandan ) - Bakeries Near Me - Montebello, California

This was an interesting place to visit. From the street, I had no idea it was a bakery that specifically baked cookies, brownies, cakes and served drinks. I looked at their bare glass showcase and there were no trays other than a couple of brownies and ube brownie. I was about to step out. Thinking they sold out. No clue. Austin, the assistant baker was kind enough to help. There was no cookies on display. I had no clue the size of the cookies. He said he would get them from the back. I waited for 5 min, so I left and said I will be back. Overall, Austin was the nicest employee. I thought he was the owner but wasn't. Annie is the owner. She should give him more credit instead of talking down about him. I returned. Saw the cookies. He told me the Ube cookies were their popular cookies. I ordered 11 Ube cookies and 1 Ube brownie. I was hoping to get the 1 extra cookie for free per the owner if I had bought 12 cookies. I didn't. Short by 1 but instead bought a Ube brownie. It wasn't honored. Its okay. The owner was a bit standoff-ish. She didn't want to make eye contact. Plus she went to the back and starts laughing after talking to me. Kind of strange, imo. The taste of the Ube cookie was not good. I did not taste the Ube. Sorry. Although it was purple like it should. Now as far as for the Ube brownie, I had high hopes from all the 5 star reviews, it must be good. Well, no Ube flavor, either. I asked about the cakes if they had any pictures to review because I'm a visual person. Owner said, no. Just tell her what you want, then she will make it. I left it alone at that. The atmosphere was unique. One corner has nothing but plants, but they do not sell plants. They accept cash but they have no change for a $20 bill??? The total was $14. They did not have $6 in their drawer, so I had to make up for the difference? I'm thinking to myself, they couldn't go next door to other businesses to get change? Must bring exact change or make up the remaining difference by buying more goods. Stay away from this place. It's not worth it. There are better bakeries with better customer service and baked goods for less. I do not know why, Annie the owner, need to lie on her reply. Smh. read more

Sometime in Dec. Was looking for a place that had pecan something and it was kind of on the way home from work. By the end of the day, I had a limited options to choose from and ended up getting a bag of brownie ends and tiramisu. The brownie ends were bitter and extra burnt. And the tiramisu was a bit bland. The prices are very reasonable. The person that helped me in the front was super friendly. read more

Lastly when my son picked up the cake the customer service was terrible, first and last time purchasing any thing from this location read more

Staff was really sweet. Interior is cute. Definitely worth stopping by at least once. They seem to have rotating flavors for most of their items. Ube Blondie Edges - you really get a bang for your buck and they were so good! I would come back for these. They were still really chewy and moist with a slight crisp. Ube Crinkle Cookie - very sweet, tons of powder sugar caked on outside. Not much ube flavor. I wouldn't grab this flavor again. Durian Crinkle Cookie - you can taste the durian. Pretty good, would grab again! Ube Tres Leche - wet and thoroughly soaked. Not too sweet. Bread Pudding - was quite dry. Wouldn't grab again. Basque Cheesecake - was what it was, ordinary. Pecan Pie - was ordinary. read more

Delish ube brownie !!!! Must try. The oatmeal cookies we got had chocolate chips and walnuts. So yummy !

I was so pleased with my birthday cakes and cookies from Butter Lab! Annie, the owner, was so accommodating and sweet. She worked with me to find the best options as far as size of cakes and pricing. I was indecisive and changed the cake flavor, but she was understanding and even made me a filling she hadn't made before. I asked for an espresso mousse filling with dulce de leche for the black chocolate cake and it was to die for! The cake was moist, very chocolatey, and the espresso paired beautifully with it. It was SO delicious! I also ordered a Citrus Dream sheet cake and added fresh raspberries along with the yuzu curd. It was exceptional! The cake was so flavorful and even had lemon zest for an enhanced citrus flavor. In addition to the cakes, I ordered some strawberry, Ube and Pandan coconut crinkle cookies. They were so moist and delicious! My favorite were the Pandan coconut cookies. I'm looking forward to ordering from Butter Lab in the future to try more unique, exquisite cakes and other desserts! Thank you so much, Butter Lab and Annie, for making my 50th birthday special! read more
