    Food, Service=5, Ambiance=4 Thanks to Too Good To Go (TGTG), I discovered a new favorite bakery. One of their bakers, Jaime, who is a fellow FilAm helped me with my TGTG order and to help me learn more about the bakery. My TGTG surprise bag included a bag of savory turnovers and jalapeño cheese bread. Both super yummy. I added a bag of hazelnut coffee amaretti cookies, a tiramisu in a jar for my cousin, and the olive, tomato & truffle focaccia. There were so many savory AND sweet focaccia to choose from that appreciate Jaime's help. Their Palo Alto site is the original store. Shop is quaint, but not crowded. Their inventory of goodies are carefully placed. I was tempted to go on a shopping splurge. Instead, I hope to become a regular shopper bundling a TGTG purchase with other items in the store. I look forward to trying their newest site in Los Altos that is set up for dine in cafe.

    Cute store, helpful service. I bought one item as a gift, and one item for myself --pistachio amaretti cookies. While I appreciate the quality ingredients and good chew of the amaretti cookies, these were too sweet for my taste. The sugar crystals overwhelmed the pistachio and I was hoping for more almond flavor.

    Ruby Chocolate Jar Cake

    My husband found this spot thanks to Yelp. We were in the area having an early dinner so decided to stop by here afterwards. There were no customers when we arrived. It's a cute little pastry shop with breads, ice cream, and cookies. Apparently everything is made fresh! The owner was very nice and friendly and let us sample some of their jar cakes. We ended up purchasing a Ruby Chocolate Jar Cake since we liked the strawberry flavor and it wasn't too sweet. We were told to consume it within the hour (I'm guessing since it has dairy in it) or refrigerating it. I would like to stop by again to try other items, such as their focaccia bread!

    Chocolate & Blueberry Focaccia
    Ai S.

    Picked up my very first TooGoodToGo order from GK Pastry and we really enjoyed it! Came in at about 7pm to pick up my order ($6.99) and they gave us the following two Focaccia: ~The Focaccia~ - Chocolate & Blueberry Focaccia: This one was our favorite! This focaccia had SO much blueberries in it, it was so good! Not too tart, and balanced the chocolate and cream cheese pieces perfectly. - Shiitake Mushrooms & Gruyere Focaccia: Savory, umami goodness. This bread had a lot of shiitake mushrooms and cherry tomatoes on it and balanced out the cheese really well. I love savory breads ands this did not disappoint. ~Overall~ Despite getting our order from TooGoodToGo, both breads tasted fresh and we really enjoyed it! It seems that the normal price of each bread is about $11, so it's a bit pricey, but I do think even that price would be worth it for how generous they are with their seasonings and toppings of each bread. I'd definitely like to go back and try out their different flavors. I also really appreciate how late they stay open for being a bakery; I feel like a lot of bakeries tend to close earlier (also since they start at earlier hours), but this bakery is open until I believe 8:30pm, so it's very convenient for those that may have to be at work until 5pm. Definitely recommend this bakery for anyone that wants to try some unique focaccia flavors!

    I came here for a Too Good To go order a bit after closing time. Our order had focaccia bread (one big plain one and one with tomatoes and other fixings) STARS (stand out qualities) -Foccacia bread was flavorful and moist -One staff there was there was very friendly and offered to answer any questions I may have STAIRS (areas of growth) -Prices are high and would be good if they have promotional events for discounts -The staff said they only have chocolate cookies at Mountain View branch. I recommend they sell chocolate chip cookies at Palo Alto branch since that is a main staple cookie to offer TIPS -there is free street parking -You can try this bakery too good to go if you want to have more affordable prices on your first try I'm very tempted to go back to try their pistachio ice cream!

    I've been to another location but I'm super happy that they opened in Palo Alto! Great service and great food!! I love the Shiitake and Gruyère focaccia!

    Apple Pie Jar
    Joyce H.

    Stopped into GK for dessert for the family. I got the Apple Pie and Mixed Berry Jar Cake as well as the Blueberry cookies. The Apple Pie jar was my partner's favorite and the Mix Berry was my favorite. The Apple Pie Jar Cake has a great texture. The apples are so perfectly diced into tiny cubes. It has such a nice Apple Pie flavor. The cake part was also delicious. The cake part was fluffy and soft. I personally loved the Mix Berry Jar Cake more. The texture is so creamy and reminds me of the texture of Tiramisu. It had a velvet mouth feel. The service was great and the shop was very clean, tidy and made you feel welcome. I'll be back! Hope other people will check them out too!

    Gluten-Free Pistachio Jar Cake (8 oz)

    Come support a small business with delicious, homemade desserts! I tried three jar cakes from GK Pastry: Tiramisu, Pistachio, and Mixed Berry. *Best enjoyed cold, straight from the fridge.* 1. Tiramisu had a classic coffee flavor that was light, creamy, and so satisfying. If you love coffee, this one's for you. It was my boyfriend's favorite. 2. Pistachio is their most popular, and I totally understand why. It was my favorite too. Creamy, soft, and quite reminiscent of many Indian sweets! 3. Mixed Berry was the sweetest of the three, with a thick layer of homemade jam, fluffy cake, and a creamy whipped topping with white chocolate shavings. You could even taste the little berry seeds. It felt like the perfect treat to savor slowly. I ended up enjoying a spoonful with breakfast each morning. :) All three were an absolute delight. I wish I had taken better photos, but we were too excited and had to dig in immediately! For my boyfriend's birthday, I put three little candles in the tiramisu jar cake and surprised him by singing happy birthday. It was such a sweet and cozy way to celebrate, and the perfect size for just the two of us to share. I found GK Pastry after work while searching for a bakery that was nearby. Thankfully, they were still open in the evening, and their jar cakes were exactly what I was hoping for. I originally planned to buy just one jar cake, but the service was so kind and thoughtful that I ended up going with a gift box of three. The gentleman at the counter was incredibly warm and helpful. He told me all the desserts are made by his mother and other family members, which made the experience feel even more special. He helped me pick flavors that weren't too sweet, which I really appreciated. When I made my purchase, he even gave me a cooler bag to keep the cakes fresh on my drive home. This bakery is not just about good desserts. It is about care, family, and a genuine love for what they do! Highly recommend.

    Focaccias

    Had no idea a little bakery was tucked behind this plaza- we wandered in & were immediately welcomed. The person working did a fab job explaining that they budge bread fresh every day & describing everything we asked about I bought a beautiful olive sourdough bread for myself & cookies and jar cakes for gifts. Everything looks amazing & the cookie samples were good. My friend bought a tea forte lovely gift box. Would love to return for the beautiful foccacia & try more flavors of jar cakes.

Everything was beautifully presented. The workers were friendly too! Their items were a bit pricey, but worth it for the quality. Their spiral croissants were so much better than Fancy Flavors. It was flaky, buttery, and filled with delicious pistachio cream. This spot is especially great for more traditional flavors. The Anton Hokkaido Milk Crepe Cake wasn't overly sweet and the cream was light and fluffy. It was perfectly up to my standards when it comes to sweetness. I'd definitely come back again even if I'm willing to hurt my wallet because the sweets are just too hard to resist.

My family and I stopped by Marvel Cake during Mother's Day for a sweet treat on Sunday. This location is in the strip of Downtown Palo Alto and has limited parking (similar to the rest of the stores there, there is a lot of parking, and you will need to get lucky). My mom does like the Marvel Cake in their first location, so we swung by here to try this one out! Location-wise, this is a smaller shop than the original one in West San Jose with limited seating inside. I would say it's not work from home friendly however, I did see a college student next to me on her laptop so maybe I am incorrect here! The interior is nice and light, matching the elegance of the desserts. We ordered three items on the menu: the pillow cake, the bisou, and the blueberry lavender roll. Here are some thoughts: * Pillowcase cake: It may seem like this would be a fluffy cake due to the nature of its shape, but it is a gelatinous Jell-O cake with fruit jam. It was not bad, and tasted refreshing and light. I didn't know if I liked it at first, but ultimately I did come back for seconds and thirds, so this is approved. * Blueberry lavender roll cake: This was not at all what we were expecting. I did not taste any lavender, nor did it have a strong blueberry flavor. I think what threw our party off was the layer of gelatin that surrounded the cake. Texturally, we were not a big fan. * Bisou: This one was our favorite one. I appreciated the nutty crust in the bottom layer of the cake, while the filling was soft and bouncy. It is very sweet, however, but overall, I really enjoyed this one and feel like it would go great with a cup of coffee. What made the experience here a 3 instead of a 4 or 5 was the service we got. We weren't greeted when we came in, which, to be fair, is totally fine, maybe they were busy. However, the person helping us stared at us the whole time and did not really communicate well with us. When I tried to order the cakes for my family, they looked bothered that we were there, and I was not sure if they understood what pastries I was ordering because they did not repeat it back to us at all or confirm anything. When I did place the order, they slowly grabbed the plates and looked visually confused, which again, if they wanted to, I could have repeated it back to them. After they gathered everything, they put it in front of us and rang me up. The whole time, they did not say a word to me at all. Did not reconfirm anything, did not acknowledge we were there, did not say thank you. It was a bit strange, and I had to check with my family if it was me or if that was a really weird experience (it wasn't me).

We always ask for a table with chairs because I have back problems and can't sit in their totally worn booths and the host has never had a problem with that request. But yesterday the regular host wasn't there and we were told they were busy and we had to sit at the counter or in a booth because they didn't want to put us the two of us at a table for four (there were two tables available). We waited for nearly ten minutes and when I asked again if we could sit at one of the tables was almost rudely told no, they were busy. So we left and went to Joanie's on California Avenue. They were also busy but immediately seated us and we had a much better lunch. Sometimes it's good to change things up as we'd forgotten how kind and attentive all the of the staff are at Joanie's and how much better the food was. And both of our plates of food came out hot and perfectly cooked which doesn't always happen at the Creamery. I guess we just eat there for the memories. My husband said none of the staff at the Creamery seem happy except for the host so if we don't see him seating the guests, we'll just go to Joanie's.
