La Colmena - Front of business. - Bakeries Near Me - New Caney, Texas

If you were brought up around Mexican bakeries, this is a fine one. However, if you were brought up in the US, all of their baked goods are dry and tasteless, but they are fresh and very pretty in the casesbut you don't know what anything costs until you get it, which is too late for most people..it's self-serve -grab a pizza pan and some tongs,get what you think you want,take it to the register, and then wait for the results ...kind of scary if you get too many things... take Cash if you don't want to pay any card fees or round ups ,... read more

Saw the signs for this new , small Mexican bakery this week, and decided to stop by. This review is for La Colmena in New Caney; Yelp assigned the wrong business name. Tried to change it, but can't it is In a small, older strip center, on Community Drive, near the laundromat. They have a small tent sign by the street, and a large sign over the store. The bakery is clean,large, and has no tables, but they do have coffee on, and quite a few baked goods. They advertised sausage and tamales for sale, as well, on separate signage. Looks like they make cakes for any occasion; especially birthday, wedding, baby showers, and more There are trays and tongs, to choose your own baked goods. Did not see prices on every item, but I bought 3 things, and the total was $2.40. Hoping they do post prices soon, but I would ask, next time. Two large cases, with multiple rows hold so many favorites; the pound cake type muffins, with or without nuts, gingerbread pigs, shaped cookies, conchas in 2 flavors, and empanadas. There was a separate rolling rack nearby, with baked goods still cooling, and I found my concha, there. Good Mexican pastries are not overly sweet, so they pair well with milk, coffee or juice, and these follow that rule, and I like it. They do have some, more sugary items, like "donas", or cinnamon sugar donuts, etc. I chose a Concha, with the white topping,and it was Very good; fresh, soft, and just the right amount of topping. The apple empanada I had was good, with a nice amount of filling (they also had pineapple, and calabasa), and the round cookie with toasted coconut was similar to shortbread; crumbly and light. I enjoyed all 3 pastries. Looking forward to returning. I was here at 9am, and they still had a good selection of items, and all were very fresh. read more
