I went to Valerio's Tropical Bake Shop looking specifically for Señorita bread, and it ended up…read morebeing way more of an experience than I expected. First off, the place is super cute but also kind of overwhelming in the best way. There are literally walls of bread and pastries everywhere, and so many options that I didn't even know where to start. I went in planning to spend just a few bucks on Señorita bread and somehow walked out $20 deep with a whole box of stuff. I ended up trying turon, a puto sampler, a bunch of different donuts, and of course the Ube Señorita bread. Honestly, everything was so good. Like fresh fresh. The bread was still warm in my hands, which made it even better. The staff didn't really speak much English, but it honestly wasn't an issue at all. They were super patient and helpful, and still managed to explain what everything was so I could try new things. At the end, I just told one of the ladies I had $20 and wanted to try a variety, and she literally put together a whole selection for me. That was probably my favorite part. The line was kind of long, but it makes sense because the food is clearly worth it. If anything, it just reassured me I was in the right place. Overall, if you're even thinking about trying Señorita bread or just want to explore Filipino pastries, this spot is 100 percent worth it. Just be prepared to go in for one thing and walk out with way more.

Been coming out here for the past nine years the best part is that they're open at 6 in the morning…read moreeven on the weekends is the best time with light traffic and business not yet open. The ladies are so superb service has been top notch no complaints and I can smell the freshly bake breads. My favorites are the Spanish bread commonly known as a señorita bread stuffed with buttery breadcrumbs and brown sugar a great breakfast snack goes very well with halo-halo a traditional Filipino dessert then there's a hopia monggo stuffed with mung bean paste, hopia ube both 4 for $5.99 and chicken empanada for a mere $3.25 which had pork and beef but everything else is well stock and organized they even have drinks. Valerio's Tropical Bakery is on my top list of freshly baked Filipino bread rolls.

Literally the best crinkles ever and is the kindest person you'll meet. The crinkles are always so soft, moist, and delicious! They are also just the perfect amount of sweetness. She just reopened her business, so support local business and order from her!! Delivery/pickup is so easy. Even when my family moved out to Central Valley, I made the time to drive all the way down for her crinkles! We always try to order to serve at our birthday parties. My favorites are the strawberry, chocolate, and lemon. You can't go wrong with any flavor. She has a buy 3 dozen, get 1 dozen free deal that I always take advantage of since I go through the crinkles so fast.... You won't regret it! order on instagram @crinkletime $15/dozen

I ordered the Ube and Buko Pandan which both had their own specific textures and flavors.

My only regret is that I didn't order more as I need to take these into work. I can't wait to try the other flavors! Thanks for enabling our addiction Crinkle Time! See ya soon!

I dislike too sweet things and this was perfect with the cream. We also got some tarts this time as a gift and they looked lovely. I really love their simple individual packages without running into the risk of damaging v other cakes in the same box. Service was very very quick. It was a pick up spot so there is no ambience specifically here but simple order at the door type ambience.

I pre-ordered the limited edition Signature Mango Crepe Cake for my husband's birthday, and it…read moreexceeded all our expectations. The presentation was absolutely beautiful, making it the perfect centerpiece for the celebration. The cake itself was outstanding - light, delicate, and made with fresh, juicy mangoes. I especially loved the slight hint of tartness from the mangoes, which perfectly balanced the subtle sweetness of the cream. It was refreshing to enjoy a cake that wasn't overwhelmingly sugary and let the quality of the ingredients shine. This was my husband's very first crepe cake, and he absolutely loved it. In fact, our entire family enjoyed every bite. If you're looking for a dessert that's elegant, fresh, and not overly sweet, I highly recommend this one. We'll definitely be back to try more flavors, I'm especially excited to try the Black Sesame Crepe Cake next!

We've stopped by here a few times before but never actually bought anything. Today we finally came…read moreback because we noticed the other day that they had a special. 5 buns for $10 or 10 for $16.99! I told my husband we had to come back on the weekend so we could stock up on buns to eat for the week. We arrived around 12:30 pm and there were a few people eating in the front restaurant area. They currently have an XLB and wonton noodle special for $8 each, and we also noticed they have different weekday specials for around $6.50. We'll definitely be back to try some of those! But today, our mission was the buns. They have a really good variety to choose from. My husband picked out 10 and then told me I should get 10 too. I went for a variety, while hubby mainly loaded up on the custard buns. The buns are a good size, and the custard buns were packed with custard! I also tried the BBQ pork bun, which wasn't bad. The pork floss bun especially brought back memories of my mom packing them in my school lunches when I was younger. There were so many other choices, hot dog with green onions, regular hot dog buns, chicken mushroom, ham and cheese, ham and corn, tuna, taro, red bean, and quite a few others. I picked up a chicken mushroom bun to try as well. I was a little sad they didn't have a plain green onion bun since that's my favorite, so I ended up going across the street to a dim sum to-go place to pick one up. Overall, you really can't beat the price and variety, especially with this special. If you like Asian bakery-style buns, this is a great place to stock up. We'll definitely be back -- next time to try some of their food specials too!

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.

I also tried the Pancit Palabok, and it was a amazing! The noodles were flavorful and topped with the classic palabok ingredients, making it a satisfying Filipino comfort food option.

If you're in the Milpitas area and craving Filipino baked goods, desserts, or comfort food like Pancit Palabok, Red Ribbon Bakery is definitely worth checking out.

We…read morenoticed all the different types of buns that was on display so decided to go inside to take a look. Decided to order the Char Siu Bun and it was the best bun I've ever had. It was warm and extremely savory! I also picked up a Pandan Coconut Hawaiian Sweet Rolls and it was just as good as it looked. A typical sweet roll with a hint of coconut and Pandan flavor. Liked that it was fluffy. So glad we stumbled upon this bakery because we wouldn't have been able to experience the delicious bun and sweet roll. Can't wait to stop by again next time I'm in the area and try their other buns!

First time here, and here's my experience:…read more 1. Ambience: I arrived late so they already cleaned up. This place looked clean and small. There was no place to dine-in, it was take out only. 2. Service: customer needs to pay at least $10 by card which was a bit inconvenient. Staffs were friendly and welcoming. 3. Food (4/5) - Pandan coconut pound cake (3/5): kinda sweet for me, its texture like cotton cake but thicker. It was topped with dried coconut. The coconut flavor was the most prominent, and you could really smell the coconut too. - Spicy pork floss biscottis (4/5): it was not spicy at all, my kids could eat it. And they loved it. It was a baguette cut into small pieces and was seasoned by fish sauce and butter. It's a good snack. Overall, I would come back to try their fresh pastries.

My only complaint is that there was a bit too much egg filling, compared to the crust, so the ratio was a bit off. I would come back for these! Malasadas (3/5): good sweetness but I thought the texture of it was overly thick and dense. I'm no expert but I prefer them soft and fluffy. I preferred the no filling to the sweet egg cream filling
