    Mocha Tres Leches w/hazelnut custard
    Mayra G.

    Never disappoints! Always fresh and ready. Service is always good and the smell inside takes all my problems away.

    Pastel de tres leches con fresa
    Carolina R.

    I really like this bakery because they have a wonderful selection of pan and tres leches cakes to choose from. They do get busy so I recommend placing an order ahead of time or going very early. The workers are very kind as well. Delicious moist cake that was the perfect birthday surprise for my fiancé. They also have cafe de canela.

    What I wanted

    We've came here for years to order cakes. This time was such a disappointment. I went in to order my daughter's cake. Left a picture of how I wanted the cake etc. only think I wanted different was instead of white we wanted the cake pink. When we went to pick up. They handed me the cake with no writing what's so ever. I questioned it. The girl had no clue., went to call over the lady that was the once I placed the order with. I told her the cake was supposed to say sweet sixteen. Then she asked me if I still had the picture because she no longer did . I luckily still had it. Then asked a man in the back to write it. Came out mediocre and ugly. To top it off we ordered a 3 leches cake. It was completely dry. Unfortunately this will be the last cake order we place at this bakery.

    We ordered a Mario Bross cake for a nephew, and he absolutely loved it. It was beyond expectations and soooo delicious!!! I definitely recommend this place not only for cakes but also for pan dulce and tamales!!!

    Another amazing cake from this bakery! They received my order and made the cake exactly how I requested. Everyone at the bakery was so nice when I went to pick it up and I also grabbed some tasty pastries! This cake was an absolute hit at my party and everyone had seconds.

    Walked in a little packed Tons of small pan dulces but not enough grandes I got a medium Champurrado and tons of small pans Felicia was was very helpful in offering me assorted Tortas to try ,I skipped this time but depending on the bread will have me come back. :) and Champurrado Will take photo of the bread and give you my critique in a few So my mini piglet 3.7/5 a little hard on the outside Champurrado 4/5 very tasteful

    Please go elsewhere, your health & that of your families is a priority. They overcharge & skimp on their almost $3.00 tamale. See attached

    Beautiful cake pops

    I like all types of breads. Carbs are my guilty pleasure. I have tried home baked baguettes, all types of Asian pastries, but I am not as well versed in Mexican bakeries. So I decided to give La Ideal a try. It was a little intimidating seeing all types of breads but the entire family that works there were extremely friendly and made recommendations for me. I ALWAYS support small business because they are made by hand and you can taste the love and care in the product. La Ideal bakery is no different! I enjoyed all the pastries I tried. I don't even remember the names. But they also make little cake pop desserts! Very good and fresh. Price was definitely fair considering they use quality ingredients. Oh and the cinnamon coffee was excellent too! Highly recommend!

    My favorite bakery! I can always rely on them for their delicious pan dulce and bolillos. They have mini pan dulce that is to die for. Check them out!!

    Pretty bummed to leave this review normally the cakes here are SO GOOD. Unfortunately this time we got a cake with a moldy strawberry .. they should really do a quality check before they send cakes out

    Pan Dulce variety
    Monica J.

    My sister surprised me with pan dulce this morning. She arrived with a beautiful assortment. I am not a fan of guava, but their guava empanada was so delicious. It left me wanting another. I did enjoy the minil versions of the regular size pan dulce. I think it's the perfect size for eating sweets in moderation.

    Vanilla cake with strawberry mousse & cream filling

    Good price for decorated cakes if you want to bring to office party for someone else. Warning: Can be too dense/wet for some people. Grab and go place with good service. Food can be better as it tastes artificial. Choco pan is okay if you like lots of sugar with your carbs.

    It was my first time at Okayama Kobo Bakery. I was in Anaheim. I was looking for a bakery and…read moreOkayama Kobo came in highly rated on Yelp. So, i decided to try it. I was not disappointed. This Location is in the Center street Anaheim outdoor shopping mall. You can park either on the street or in the adjacent parking garage. As i arrived around 8:30am on a Friday, there was a line out front but it was moving fairly fast. The interior of the bakery is one space divided into 2 sections. The bakery and the coffee shop. Each with their own check out stand. They also have their own separate entrance door. So, if all you wanted was a beverage, you don't have to wait in line for the bakery. The interior is warm and inviting. There is no seating inside. Just high top tables made of barrels with a top for standing. However, there is a patio outside with tables and market umbrellas. Okayama Kobo is an Artisan Japanese Bakery. Everything is made fresh daily using quality ingredients and no preservatives. They use 100% Hokkaido flower from Japan. They are best known for their signature Salt & Butter Rolls, Curry Pan, and adorable character buns like the "Kobo Kuma" I got a "salt and butter roll". It is a light fluffy bread shaped like a croissant with a buttery and light salty flavor. I also got a "Kobo Kuma" which is a soft bear shaped fluffy bread filled with vanilla bean custard. Both were warm out of the oven and melt in your mouth delicious. Okayama Kobo Bakery has locations in OC, San Diego and Hawaii. The prices are really reasonable and the service is great. I can't wait to go back to try some of their other baked goods such as the french toast as well as a signature crafted coffee. I highly recommend Okayama Kobo.

The pastries are delicious and almost too pretty to eat, and the matcha is smooth, flavorful, and one of the best I've had. There's no indoor seating, just a small cozy outdoor area, but it adds to the charm. If you want an Instagram-worthy coffee stop with great treats and matcha, this place is a must. Highly recommend!

Thankfully, they took pity on two desperate bread hunters. When they told me the only option was buying an entire tray of 60 Senorita breads, I acted shocked for about half a second before enthusiastically saying, "Deal!" 15 mins later, we were handed a box of pure happiness. Naturally, hubby and I had to perform a thorough quality-control inspection in the car. 6 pieces each later (strictly for research purposes, of course), we confirmed the verdict: fresh, hot, buttery, soft, chewy, perfectly sweet, and dangerously addictive!!! By the time we got home, the box was already looking a little less full. The drive home basically turned into a rolling bread feast!!

You get a bag of 5 for $4, which is a fantastic deal. They serve them to you piping hot, making the bread incredibly soft and pillowy. Flavor-wise, they are pretty good--sweet, slightly buttery, with a hint of cream cheese and a caramelized sugar texture. While I wouldn't say they are absolutely life-changing, eating them fresh and hot right out of the bag makes them a delicious treat. I also tried the Ube Donut, which was really good and had a great flavor profile. A few practical perks: Parking: There is ample free parking in the lot, which makes getting in and out super easy. Location: The complex has quite a few other food spots around it, making it a great little strip to grab a bite or a quick dessert. Definitely worth a stop if you want a warm, sweet comfort snack!

When I followed up, the manager was incredibly rude. When I went back to the store, she became hostile and aggressive. She refused to look at my bank records, threw a receipt at me, and maliciously accused me of stealing their tray. She then kicked me out of the store, claiming I was disrupting her business. I was polite the entire time and have never been so insulted in my life. Chase Bank has officially confirmed that the payment WAS successfully processed and transferred to Cream Pan. They took my money twice, refused to check their accounts, and accused me of theft. This hostile behavior is terrifying and unacceptable. I am permanently boycotting this business.
