I ordered cakes from here for many years and this was first since change of ownership. Never hesitated as these cakes are soft and beautiful. In the past, I always recommended this bakery to colleagues, family and friends. Last week I ordered the cake for my husband's suprise birthday party. Went into the store and paid in full. Everyone enjoyed the cake. It was soft and moist as usual. My only complaint was my guests were professionals...doctors, nurses, therapists, teachers, and professors. When they read the words on the cake, I was so embarrassed! I suppose I should not have said.."It's for a 50th birthday for Frank" and let them choose the wording. They wrote: "Happy Birthday 50 Frank." If I had picked it up, I would have requested it be changed as this cost me $85 but I had someone else pick it up. Lesson learned. Disappointing..... read more

I've been ordering deliveries since the pandemic starts, this weekend I was finally able to visit the store! The breads and boas here average $1.75 to $2.5. The price is slightly cheaper than big chain bakeries and the products are much filling than other places. I personally really like their breads with sweet paste(奶酥), it's so dense and sweet like the mom&pop shops in Taiwan. If you like coffee, don't miss their mocha cake and coffee bread/sweet paste. They have various long rectangle cakes, I've tried mango, taro and mocha. I like them all for real. The whipping cream is sweet, sponge cake is smooth and fluffy, the mango is super refreshing; the taro one is semi-sweet and made with real taro paste not flavored; the mocha one is bitter and sweet, from cake to cream are both coffee flavored! Besides breads, they have 掛包 (3 sets $7.5), Taiwanese rice tamales(粽子), sticky rice box and more traditional food. If you're like me, living on the west side, you can join their LINE group and order through group-buy. The owner makes his way to west LA almost bi-weekly. read more

Always consistently fresh and delicious! We've tried a lot of different bakeries in the SGV and this is still our favorite. The cakes are light, spongy and not too sweet. We always get their mango cake and the mango is always ripe (never crunchy or sour). The bread is also delicious and very well organized so it's easy to find what you're looking for. Everything is made fresh daily here and you can truly taste the difference. It's a small multi-generational family business and the owners are always very sweet (excellent service). Ambiance is typical of a small Asian bakery. I like that they have smaller sized cakes that serve 2-4 so I can easily satisfy my cake cravings anytime. They do get busy during the holiday season so make sure to pre-order in advance! Parking is always easy to find in the large lot. read more

I placed an order for a mango cake the day before. The mango cake was a hit, even with the pickiest of eaters! The cake was FRESH, sponge-like, just the perfect amount of sweetness and whip cream, and the most important ingredient, mangoes were yummy ripe. This family has perfected the mango cake! I immediately placed the second order for a customized mango cake to share with my family Will definitely try the durian cake another time read more

In a town where there are a number of gourmet bakeries (e.g. JJ, Sun Mary) this tiny "hole in the wall" bakery never got my attention until one Friday afternoon, when I went to a neighboring business. Their selections are a bit limited and their pastries did not look as good as most other places in Temple City. However, I was able to find a couple of nice items: their red bean loaf (that is, if you like red bean) is very good with red bean filling that's NOT too sweet. At $3 a loaf it's a bargain. The other thing I like is their coffee walnut cookies - 6 pieces for $3. Nicely wrapped so you can carry them in your purse as a snack. I could Not talk myself into trying anything else - most of them look unappealing. But overall I'd say their prices are a bit lower than the higher end competitors around town. read more

Came here for the cream puffs. They are 45 cents each and decent size, maybe 2-3 bites with generous filling (my husband told me maybe a few years ago they used to be 25 cents...inflation). The filling was a little tad sweet but OK. We also got the coconut twist bread, 1.75 dollars. It was good but compared to 85 bakery's, it's like half the size (maybe 85's just big). We wanted to get other stuff but they didn't seem to have many in stock. We couldn't walk around because technically they weren't accepting walk-ins. Maybe next time. read more

Fruits were super fresh mangoes were on the tart side since it's not in season but the cream was light & just a hint of sweetness. Overall excellent cake & reasonably priced.

Everything was going so well until I got down to the last few bites and found a little piece of plastic paper while chewing. I was alarmed when I felt something different as I chewed around the coffee bun dough. When I took it out and examined it closer, I promptly threw the rest away. Service in the bakery had been good, and I had left excited to try my bread. It is unfortunate that I was left with such a negligent ending impression. I hope the owner will use this feedback to reevaluate their sanitary procedures. read more

He had one half sheet left. It was $38. The cake tasted good. The cake is surrounded by mango slices and the center is mango slices and white whipped cream. It's a vanilla cake.

We've had cakes from this bakery at another birthday celebration, and they were great so my Mom decided to order one for my birthday today. She did the online ordering on Monday (which doesn't work, so don't use it). When she walked in to pick up a customized 1/4 sheet mango cake that she thought that she had ordered online, the employee said "oh yeah that doesn't work". So then my Mom had to pick from the options they had in store, which there was only an 8 inch as the largest. The employee (not sure about the position they are in) knew that the online ordering didn't work and told my Mom someone tried using it last week and it didn't work. Just disappointed that when she did ask if there was a larger size he said "well how many people do you need to feed" and the 8 inch would have sufficed, but the point was we wanted a larger one with writing on it already made for my birthday. He just didn't seem apologetic about the website not working. read more

The blueberry jam was flavorless and the strawberries were raw, blueberries had a couple that were moldy or not cleaned, and strawberries were sour given that it was strawberry season. It seems like the ingredients weren't sourced very well. There was way too much cream.

What I really enjoy about this place is actually their savory selection - I like to grab their steamed pork buns, sticky rice bento box, or stop by for a fresh egg pancake in the morning!

The only thing is that JJ Bakery is MILES better as the food is so much more delicious and satisfying. My husband and I got their Curry Beef Pie and their Supreme Salted Rice Ball (with Chinese sausage, egg, and pork sung) for a quick breakfast. There was an explosion of flavors in the curry pie, and the light, flaky crust just elevated the pastry to a whole new level. The rice ball was the perfect combination of tastes and textures, from the crispy pork sung to the sweet and savory sausage to the fluffy, sticky rice. I couldn't decide which pastry was better :) Just note that this place is more grab-and-go (we ate in our car). Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

Super excited because the mini fruit tarts are going to look amazing on my newly purchased dessert tray! I was feeling a bit sleepy so I decided to fuel up & eat breakfast while I was there. I ordered a Vanilla Latte & a side order of 3 eggs + Sausage Links. If you're a big eater and want the additional potatoes and pancakes, I recommend paying a few dollars more and ordering the Breakfast platter. The Vanilla Latte came in a paper cup (a bit bummed out by not being able to take a more IG worthy picture of that), but it actually tasted really good! Same with the sausage links - it was probably one of the best tasting ones I've had for breakfast in a while. Aside from their wide selection of pastries and food options, their customer service was phenomenal. Every customer that walked through the door was greeted upon arrival and thanked on their way out. The restaurant was very clean and the cakes looked so beautiful behind the glass case. I had a pleasant experience today at Merengue Bakery & Cafe and can't wait to come back soon to try a slice of their chocolate cake!

Street parking can be tough during peak hours, but there are public lots nearby. For the past 12 years, this has been our go-to spot, and their Guava Cake is the ultimate family favorite! This past Mother's Day, Mom wanted that exact cake. We stopped by in the morning to pick one up as usual. However, the lady at the counter informed us they would not have any ready until 2 PM and was quite dismissive and short with us. I was next in line, it was now the second person at the counter helping me, ( male ) once he knew I was looking for a guava cake, he immediately went to the back going out of his way to check and ensure we took a fresh guava cake home right then and there. He saved Mother's Day !!! I must also mention Danny and Lissette are amazing every time we order cakes for family events. It's always a great experience, and we'll definitely keep coming back for their goodies.

Line was out the door on a Saturday late morning :-o

Their seasonal mini pecan pie - really nice! I'd love to see them make a larger size. (Sept 2024)

This review is only for the following items I have…read morehad recently: Chinese cupcake wrapped in paper Pineapple bun (aka Bor Lor Bao) Sesame bun with walnuts Egg tart These were all delicious. The Chinese cupcake wrapped in paper was one of the best I've had. It was spongy, moist and just the right amount of sweetness. Pineapple bun is the Hong Kong style buns. The top is crispy while the rest of the bun is soft. Sesame bun was soft and filled with good amount of sesame inside. Egg tart was also good. Although the crust could be flakier, the egg custard part was very good. I haven't tried everything in the store but what I have tried recently, I liked it a lot. I will be back to try other items.

They're really generous with the filling and don't skimp, which is what keeps me coming back :D My husband enjoys their cha siu bao, and they always seem to have it fresh out of the oven whenever we stop by. The cashiers here are also super sweet - the black sesame bread sells out fast, so I usually call in ahead of time to ask if they have any and they'll set aside a few for me until I arrive, which I really appreciate :) Little things like that go a long way. Highly recommend this spot for your Asian bakery goods!

This particular location though, could use some work with consistency. The selection and quality of pastries and drinks seem to vary throughout my many visits. My top pastries are all of their croissant-like pastries, especially the Pastry Frank (filled with a savory sausage inside) and Mini Strawberry Lemon Cream Croissant (filled with a smooth and tangy lemon cream and fresh strawberries that add a tartness). Both of these have flaky, buttery exterior shells that are wonderful to bite into. For cakes, I love the strawberry soft cream cake. This cake is simple, light, and not too sweet. The thin layers of vanilla, soft cream, and strawberries blend excellently together. I appreciate that they provide free candles with whole cakes. An underrated cake is the green tea roll cake, which is delicious, but not ideal for celebrations.

Bienvenue à Paris Baguette.

It's fun here cuz you can get a little shopping cart and collect your breads. Kinda went crazy and got a bunch to try. The breads looked like they would be dry but weren't and were all really soft, pillowy, and fluffy. The Black Forest bread was topped with toasted almonds, had jiggly thick sweet custard, and a layer of semi sweet chocolate. The hades bread was the only kinda dry bread and was filled with bittersweet chocolate and had a thin sweet Oreo crust on the bottom like a cheesecake would. The pork floss bread had a swirl of sweet savory pork floss and was topped with nutty crunchy sesame seeds. The banana cream bread was filled with like this cheesecake tasting light cream and had some real bananas inside too. The garlic bread was really good, soft, and had a streak of yummy, savory, garlicy, cheesy goodness. They even had a cilantro pork floss cake?! Wasn't getting any cilantro flaves but the cake was nicely spongy, light, vanillay, and had a swirl of pork floss that actually worked with it. Their black sesame cake was also very spongy, jiggly, light, and airy with good black sesame flaves. They even let you try some free samples of bread which my grandma really enjoyed. Overall this place is pretty good. Black Forest $4.50 Hades $6 Pork floss $5 Banana cream $4.50 Garlic bread $4.50 Cilantro pork floss sponge $5 Black sesame sponge $3.75

The pastry case was delightful n organized. I took photos of the ones I bought. Apparently, the lady at the counter has very limited English skills, friendly enough but could really use some upgrade in her customer service skills. I value customer service a great deal--that's how I become a regular patron. Thankfully there are other Duke Bakery locations to visit if the pastries happen to strike my fancy. There are about 3 sets of seating (tables with chairs & cushioned booth type to enjoy your treats. No outdoor seating available. Parking is shared among other businesses, so it can get hairy at peak times In this shop, there 3 different vendors, not just Duke's, there's a noodle shop to the right (if facing the counter) a smoothie shop in the middle & Duke's on the left. The pastry shelves encompass the majority of the space. The jury is still out re: pastry taste, bought some for friends.

My niece got the Mini 1 Banana Chocolate Crepe ($4.99) and I got the Mini 5 Matcha Chocolate Truffle ($4.99). What really surprised us was another deal for Thai Tea ($.0.99/each). WHAT A DEAL!! Sold!! So we both got a mii crepe and a thai tea. While we waited for them to make our crepes we picked a comfortable table to settle in at. They have a few tables with half booths inside, and a few small tables and benches they share with other shops in the plaza. So we get our crepes and we're really enjoying it. It's amazing for $4.99. Halfway down... there was something strangely sour... whipped yogurt... why?? We both made these faces at each other. Not into it. My niece said next time she would remove the whipped yogurt and add strawberries to her banana chocolate crepe. For my matcha chocolate truffle I would just remove the whipped yogurt and it would be perfect. We only ordered the Thai tea because it was so affordable but it was super good thai tea. Not too sweet. Great value, especially during the afternoon specials. I would definitely come back!
