    We have made pit stops at this OG branch of Cream Pan in Tustin over the years. The location of this well-known Japanese/French bakery was unusual in that it's isolated in a corner of the El Camino Plaza. I had expected the business to be in a more high volume area, however a benefit of their corner spot was that the parking lot had plenty of spaces. There's no indoor seating, but outdoor tables were set up along the north and east perimeters of the building. I was by myself at this latest visit, and it was close to the end of the day so the inventory was quite depleted. There was no line at all which was not a surprise. The famous Strawberry Croissants and prepackaged items were on refrigerated display to the left when you walked in. As the service counter rounded a corner, there were more fresh baked goods on display before you reached a register. Across from the registers were shelves containing bags of fresh bread products. I bought a Strawberry Croissant, a Sticky Bun, a Ham and Cheese Croissant, and an Apple Croissant. The quality of the pastry dough was very good, and I could see why the Strawberry Croissant was a favorite with the customers. The croissants were light and flakey, and the powdered sugar added a delicate topping to the strawberry version. If I were to rate on just the Strawberry Croissant, then it would be five stars. My overall rating was downgraded because of the customer traffic flow. The lines can be optimized so that if you wanted to buy a six-pack of the Strawberry Croissants and/or anything prepackaged, then a separate queue should be arranged for those customers. The cafeteria trays were of limited use if you were not getting a large number of items. As you advanced in the queue, other products had to be requested from a worker behind the counter and then those were not placed on the tray. Ultimately, I think they can configure the operation to more efficiently handle the higher volume periods of the day.

    One of the original pastry shops in OC that I have been coming to get for many years. Strawberry croissant is the way to go. The space can be a bit tight when there is a line out the door. I usually stop by in the mornings before work, which is also when the pastries are freshly baked. Last time I also tried a few other pasties and niku man (pork bun) and spam and egg misubi for breakfast. Many of the other sandwiches are also tasty.

    Strawberry Croissants!!

    In 2024, Cream Pan earned Yelp's top honor as the best pastry shop in Orange County--rightfully so and well deserved! They've also been recognized by The Orange County Register, TripAdvisor's Travelers' Choice, and OC Weekly. Influenced by French and Japanese-style baking, they specialize on cream pans--hence the name. Cream pans are sweet buns filled with a light, silky custard. Whenever I come here, there's always a long line but it's so worth it. I get their famous strawberry croissant, which is filled with a perfectly balanced cream custard that's just the right amount of sweetness for my liking. They have a wide range of options--from sandwiches and rice dishes to donuts, cakes, and even sushi. They also offer catering, including strawberry croissants, sandwich trays, whole cakes (6- or 9-inch), roll cakes, and sushi trays. Catering is available at all three locations: Tustin, Fountain Valley, and Lomita.

    The social media trend on this place is so so accurate! I got the cream pan, azuki cream, and the famous strawberry croissant. Unfortunately, I couldn't get my lips on it for a few days but got man, oh damn, it was still pretty taste and can just imagine if I took a bite of them the day of. The service was a bit off meaning the girl grabbing my pastries was emotionless and the girls at the register were just chatting away while I waited for one of them to ring me up. But would I go back? Hell yeah! It's take good

    They're known for their strawberry croissants, and they are definitely delicious. But, I've noticed over the years, especially recently, the prices have gone much higher and the product seems much smaller. I would love getting their variety pack of sandwiches, but again, the prices kept rising, so I hardly get them anymore. They hardly fill you up, anyway, because they're so tiny. The Spam and egg musubis are tasty. The scones are fluffy and not hard and dry like at most other bakeries. Their carrot juice is nice. If anything, I'll go in and get their white sandwich bread, brioche buns, and butter rolls. They have curry dishes, California rolls, spicy tuna rolls, and many other items. It's a small shop, and items usually sell out way before closing time. Service is meh, definitely went downhill over the years as well, unfortunately. Regardless, it's quaint and unassuming. There's seating outside on the patio. There used to be inside seating before COVID, and they just use that area for storage, now. It doesn't look great. But, there are plenty of other restaurants, shops, coffee shops, etc., so you can walk around the whole block.

    Friends brought bakery from here and it was sooooo good. The strawberry croissant was flaky and crispy just the way I like it. I just wish there were more strawberries only because I love strawberries. Almond croissant was good but I like Bouchon bakery (Yountville, CA) almond croissant better. Coffee rolls were very good. Soft sponge with enough coffee flavor.

    A very popular bakery known for their strawberry croissants. The pastries are good, but I actually come here more for their sandwiches. I like the variety and the portion size, perfect for grabbing something quick to go for events. That said, if you're looking for a cute bakery to sit and enjoy your pastries, this isn't the spot. The space is small and cramped with a narrow cafeteria-style line where you order (but barely can see their faces as the bakery cases are too high), pay, and head out. There are boxes and supplies stacked around the store, so the ambiance isn't the highlight. Despite the setup, they're always busy because the pastries and other food items are good.

    When we moved to Old Town a few years ago, I was happy because we were so close to Cream Pan. On our weekend walks, we always pass by Cream Pan. It always smells amazing because they make everything fresh. Whenever we celebrate a birthday (which is often because we have three kids), we always order a Strawberry Shortcake a couple of days beforehand and pick it up the morning we need it. It saves time and we don't need to stand in line. I tried their Chocolate Cake and I wasn't a fan of it. I thought it was chocolate cake, but they had bananas in it. And some of their pastries are a hit or miss, but their strawberry croissant and cream puff never fail in presentation nor taste. Their breads, katsu curry, and sandwiches are also really good. Come early because they sell out quickly.

    Run, don't walk to get their delicious pastries! Perfectly sweet to perfection! It's hard to stop at just one. I picked up my order and there was no wait. Everyone was friendly also.

    Cream Pan is a must when you visit Tustin! 1. The Strawberry Custard Croissant is what they are known for and run you around $2.40 per piece or if you purchase in bulk it is cheaper. I opted for the 14 at $32. Great for sharing. 2. The Cream Puff use the same custard in the filling They do run out of their bread toward the end of the day.

    I came back to Cream Pan today for breakfast and lunch to go items. The ham and cheese croissant was excellent and the pan au raisin is savory and not too sweet. I also picked the katsu sando for lunch. Staff were friendly and welcoming as always. The ambiance is casual and typical of a bakery. I have included pictures of the inside of what Cream Pan offers. Enjoy!

    omgoooooood!!!  my friend brought us strawberry cream puffy pastry.  yummmz

    I love bakeries, but I really love Japanese bakeries. Cream Pan has been popular for their strawberry croissants for over 2 decades now. And this pastry has maintained its perfected custard filling ever since. They have transformed a humble croissant into a super kawaii dessert with this light custard and sliced strawberries. They have ready-packed boxes of 6 croissants each. A perfect dessert to take home or gift your favorite person. This bakery also has many favorites like curry pan - on this day they had baked chicken curry pan and regular fried beef curry pan. Both are delicious. Sliced sesame bread is one of my favorites. I love making my own egg salad sandwich using this bread - lightly toasted. As good as those fluffy egg sandwiches you can get in a Japan konbini! Love the ready-made sando loaded with cucumber, lettuce, cabbage, or tomato . Chicken katsu sando, croquette sando, and the egg salad sando, all hit the spot. Best sandwiches ever! There are many pastries, breads, sandwiches, rice dishes and other sweets to try. You will need to pace yourself. Come back and savor all of these. So the next time you feel the need to take a trip to Japan, visit Cream Pan! It's the next best choice!

    Came and got the azuki cream pan and iconic strawberry croissant. We easily found parking out front. There was a short line out the door but it moved quickly, just make sure you don't leave the door open. If the line inside is full keep the door closed till it gets shorter then go inside. The have both sweet and savory pastries. The sweet ones are out front as you pass the case facing the door. The savory selections are featured after you turn the corner of the counter. They also have sandwiches as well as a Karaage and musubi combo which I want to try. I got the iconic strawberry croissant which was flakey and had a bit of custard and a few slices of strawberry inside. It's 2 maybe 3 bites. It was delicious but I think I prefer the azuki cream pan. The azuki cream pan was filled with azuki bean and had a light sweet cream filling too. The combination of the 2 made for a delightful taste and texture. The process is easy, stand in line, order the items as you see them. So sweet items first then savory. If you want a bunch of sandwiches or musubi then grab a tray. They also have freshly baked bread before your reach the register. You can't go wrong with the strawberry croissant but I suggest you try one of their other products too.

    Ask the Community - Cream Pan

    Any vegan options?

    I don't think so because I asked them for dairy free items. They only had sourdough and another form of rustic bread. They also will say there is the chance for cross contamination. Hope this helps!

    Anything with ube/purple yam?

    I am not sure, but I believe they have.

    Gluten free options?

    Unfortunately, no.

    Do you deliver to a local area?

    You can use apps like DoorDash, UberEats and etc for deliveries. This place does not do their own delivery service.

    Are you open today for thanksgiving?

    No they are not open on Thanksgiving

    How are the strawberry croissants after being a day old?

    They are pretty good. Just make sure to refrigerate them.

    Is it just me or have other people also noticed how every item is like half the size it used to be and costs more as well?

    I agree. A little harder to enjoy more now because of it. Wouldn't mind paying more for the old size.

    How much are the mixed sandwich boxes and do they run out easily?

    Is there katsu sando(tonkatsu sandwich)?

    Yes and they are delicious!

    What cheese do they use for their ham & cheese croissant? It was so delicious!

    I think they use Gruyère

    Are you open tomorrow on Thanksgiving day?

    Yes according to there IG but closes early https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckny6tirPN9/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

    Can I order it over the phone?

    I believe so if they pick up! They run out of things so early so order for pickup

    For the Tustin location?? If I come at 9:30am on Sunday, would there be a higher probability their strawberry croissants being sold out? Would you recommend preordering the 14 pieces?

    Hello there always making them so if they run out they have some in the back that's there biggest sale so yeah your good. I've never let order them just because they always have them but I'm sure if you call te hey can advised you there's a also a… Read more

    Anything here contain nuts?

    Which one is better, strawberry shortcake or cheesecake?

    Both are good, too hard to choose! Try both!

    Hi , I was wondering if you guys open on July 4th?

    Yes they are just be prepared to wait in line

    Do they still have the matcha cake?

    I saw it when I was there not too long ago.

    What sizes do they have for the strawberry croissants and how much are they?

    Size: They are on the smaller side - can fit one on the palm of your hand. I believe the only have 1 size. Price: I think they are around $1.70 a piece (more prices can be… Read more

    Do the strawberry croissants freeze well?

    They have fresh cream and strawberries so I don't think they'd freeze well. Eating them fresh is best or at least in a day or 2👍🏼

    Gluten free options?

    No. Not at all. My husband is gluten free and waits in the car.

We are…read moreso sad we didn't get to come visit until quite recently. :( We parked in the nearby parking lot on 4th street. Usually parking here isn't too bad if you're staying for less than an hour and easy to walk over to the dessert shop. Baked Banhs is located in the 4th street food market, one of the first shops you'll see if you're coming from the parking lot. Note the hours before you come (for instance, they're closed on Sundays and Mondays). And note that they seem to usually sell out of certain items by the days end. We've tried a number of different items here now including four of their canelés and their basque cheesecake. The cheesecake was solid. But we really loved their canelés. They are soft/moist on the inside with a nice crunch. And the different flavors really come through. Our favorite is the black sesame - not only is there black sesame peppered on the top but also in the center with a nice black sesame cream. It's so good and delicious. Four canelés cost $16 and thought they were well worth the price. Again, it's so sad to hear that Baked Banhs is closing soon so if you're a fan of canelés or other desserts, recommended to come sooner than later to try this out! We really hope they reopen again elsewhere or do a lot of pop-ups soon.

I like getting the plain vanilla one, and it also comes with a little cereal at the bottom that gives it a good crunch. The coffee jelly milk is also great, it feels similar to a boba drink but it's a lot cheaper. Whenever I come here it's always the same lady who I'm sure is tired of seeing me lol, but she is so sweet and kind and patient when I have trouble deciding what to pick here! As for the pastries/desserts, the custard pudding cup deserves more love! I'm not sure if it's housemade here, but if you've ever been to Japan, it tastes exactly like the ones you buy from the konbini! I remember I would buy one almost every day of my trip, so I've grown cravings for it that Hamadaya satisfies in OC. The bavarian chocolate cream is a fun decadent pastry if you're into chocolate- comes with so many chocolate chips. The cheese bread is also a go-to for me if I'm in a savory mood- it's exactly what it sounds like, cheese and bread but who doesn't love those two things? Egg katsu sandwich is good if you're looking for something more substantial. The strawberry shortcake I've tried here was also good, but I did pick it up near their closing so it felt a little dried out. Definitely would recommend coming here earlier in the day for fresher and better selection of pastries!

    The best bakery in town! Love the bread. It's fresh with minimal ingredients and tastes delicious…read more It's open early on Sundays before the rest of the restaurants. It's empty and easy to pickup pastries for breakfast. Kids love the hotdog pastries and the fruit tarts. Service is always great! Easy parking before everything else opens.

    This is the place to go if you want cream puffs in OC! I've been going here since I was a child,…read moreand truly, I've never had a better cream puff than from here. Anyone I've offered a Manmi cream puff to agrees with me. Cream puffs are 75 cents each. They're big and are generously filled with a custard cream. The pastry bit itself is fluffy and not too dense, unlike other puffs I've had. It's not too sweet, and if I don't watch myself, I'd easily eat a shameful amount of them in a single sitting. I usually pay in cash, but you can pay with card (except American Express) if you're okay with a small processing fee. There isn't much seating in the bakery, but there are a couple of chairs and tables to the left. From my experience, people usually just come and go. Service is standard and relatively friendly. 100/10 would recommend.

    I just first wanted to remind you I'm a big foodie and always base on yelp review. I love cream…read morepuffs by all means and was looking forward to trying these. They sell by 75 cents each which is good. Parking a little tight but if you go on weekday it's not too bad. The lady who greeted me wasn't too friendly she literally started me down and looked like she just wanted to rush me out. Also guys they take cash only but if card use they charge $1 fee. So she took my order and went next door to charge my card but I didn't know next door was a coffee place guess they link together. Funny thing was she didn't smile and the man who came after me she greeted him with a smile because they are of the same ethnicity. Language wasn't an issue here but to stare at customer like that I'm not coming back there ever again. Even though the cream puffs were so good very soft and not too sweet. I always go by first experience and impression. I will be looking forward other bakery's in Garden Grove.

    Every time I'm in the OC and I'm looking for a place for a sweet treat, Maison de Croissant was…read morealways high up on the suggested search results list. Only recently was I able to visit and try their croffles and other sweets. Did NOT know that this was inside the H Mart food court in Diamond Jamboree. Parking is horrendous and the driving there is horrendous as well. Probably the easiest and least horrifying option just to automatically default to is to just park in the overflow lot right next to the plaza. There's no indicator for the parking garage so on a particularly busy day, you can head all the way to the top, find nothing and navigate through the hell crowds trying to leave. Ambiance is a very casual, counter order business in the food court. There's seating there, but we ate really close by. Definitely something you have to eat immediately or the texture will not be optimal or it might get soggy. We got the tiramisu croffle and they toasted it and put it together for us there. The lady working there packed it up nicely in a to go box and we got some cookies (regular ones and almond crisp ones). It's a bit sweet, but they're dessert pastries so that makes sense. Goes great with a brewed cup of tea. Croffle had a nice semi-chewy texture and the tiramisu flavor added a bit of a coffee taste to it. Good balance of the cream and croffle. The cookie wasn't too bad either. Overall not a bad to go dessert spot.

    8/10 Croffle - It was alright. I'm pretty biased though since I don't like whipped cream at all,…read moreand half of it was just whipped cream on top. My friend really liked it though.
