Cute, boutique little donut shop. The donuts here are works of art, beautiful, and almost too…read moremagnificent to eat. They are also really creative with their flavors. However, the taste was a little disappointing. I do like a fluffly, textured donut, however, these are served cold and very sweet. It's just a different donut than the ones I prefer. They had a wide selection of flavors, even on late morning of a weekend. We tried the tiramisu (2/5) donut and the biscoff cream donut (3/5). But both were too sweet for my taste. I can't say that I'd be back, but if you're looking for something unique, I think you'd enjoy this little shop. They also sell croissants, more savory treats, and coffee!

I wanted to grab some desserts for my family during this hot summer heat. I ended up ordering so…read moremuch! Large strawberry bingsoo - refreshing strawberries, and they did not skimp out. Kids loved it Large mango bingsoo - mango slices were plentiful. This was the first to go when everyone dug in. Large chocolate bingsoo - this was ok, I would have liked to see a little more chocolate incorporated into the dish. Large caramel bingsoo - loved the crunch that came with the cereal pieces. Large original red bean bingsoo - classic combo if you wanted something a little more simple Large injeolmi bingsoo. Large matcha red bean bingsoo - another classic combo. The matcha wasn't overpowering and the slight bitterness balanced out the sweet in the dish. Mango sago - classic summertime fave. The fresh mango and sago was a hit with the toddlers and not too sweet. I ordered everything for pick up via door dash. It was ready a lot sooner than expected too. Since it was such a large pick up order, I told the gentleman at the register I'd make a couple trips. He actually followed behind me to my car to help me load everything up. That was so nice!

ChaChaCha is one of my favorite cafés in Fremont whenever I'm craving unique drinks and desserts…read more On my recent visit, I tried the Brown Cheese Vanilla Croffle, Pistachio Matcha, and the returning Corn Einspanner, and everything was delicious. The Brown Cheese Vanilla Croffle was definitely the highlight--crispy on the outside, soft inside, topped with creamy vanilla ice cream and rich brown cheese that added the perfect sweet and savory flavor. The Pistachio Matcha was smooth and well-balanced, and the Corn Einspanner was surprisingly delicious with its creamy corn foam. The café has a cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and beautifully presented menu items. Definitely worth visiting if you're looking for something different in the Bay Area!

A gem of a matcha/boba shop in Fremont! Came to try their drinks through the recommendation of tik…read moretok, and was pleasantly surprised.  Pistachio matcha (4.5/5) - the pistachio flavor mixes SO well with matcha and has become of of my all time favorite combos. This place goes it really well and the foam adds an extra level fo creaminess.  Banana matcha (3.5/5) - the banana was okay, it didn't taste artificial, but they flavors didn't mesh as seamlessly as they do in other places with banana matcha. It is sweet and yummy tho if you're craving it! The Biscoff is a nice touch.  There is nowhere to chill, as the place is pretty small. And it was HOT the day we went, so it was more comfortable to chill and wait for our drinks outside. They were ready in about 10 min. There's also a photobooth that prints photos which you can play with while you wait. I'd definitely come back for the pistachio matcha and to try more of their drinks!

In terms of the drinks, the bubble cheese milk tea drink was overly sweetened and the classic milk tea was very strong in the black tea.

Of course husband last minute says day of birthday celebration that we need a cake. Found Izumi…read moreCakes on Yelp and was bummed at first because the soonest online reservation for a cake would be two days later. Husband called them around 11am and they said they were in the middle of making their strawberry cakes so they could add our order in for a same day pickup at 4pm. Pickup went well and the cake was so cute and it tasted great! Like the Chinese bakery strawberry cream cake with a moist sponge cake; not too sweet, just right. Might sound basic but it was done very well. Would 100% recommend. I don't know prices for cakes nowadays but I didn't feel bad paying about $60 for a cute and tasty cake (6", strawberry cream cake). I wouldn't bank on same day pickups, I might've just been very lucky they were in the middle of making their cakes but it wouldn't hurt to try calling early in the day if you're in a pinch for a solid cake. I'm very thankful for their service!

This spot is takeout-only, so don't plan on stopping by for long. Finding parking isn't difficult…read morebut might take a minute on busy days, as it shares a parking lot with the rest of a popular plaza. The store itself is easy to find as well, with a clear label outside. Walking in, it looks half-closed--their cakes are all stored in a large refrigerator, with nothing in the case on the counter. There is a sign proclaiming "takeout only" in slight disarray, and the seating is pushed to the side. That said, the service is friendly and the employees are quick to help you and show you what they have in stock for takeout. I ordered the 4" Berry Berry Light Cake for a birthday, and they were able to write a birthday message on the cake board, which I really appreciated. The cake also tasted very light and the sweetness was subtle, which I really enjoyed. The berry flavor in the sponge was a little too subtle, though. My main concern is that the cake does not fully resemble the picture they advertised online. It is missing the freeze-dried berries on top, and the berry glaze did not reach as far down the cake as was shown in the photo. Because the berry glaze is the main source of the berry flavor, this was a little disappointing. Also, the cake was not finished when I came to pick up the cake (and I was ~5 minutes late). I'm uncertain if this is for freshness or if there is another reason. Overall, I like the spot for the fresh and light cake. It's pleasantly unique compared to your standard sheet cake, and everything is rather cute. However, it may be a better idea to buy the cakes in-person to be 100% sure of what it will look like, though daily stock is definitely more limited than if you place an order online. I hope they reopen their indoor seating soon.
