    Not fresh bakeries here! Selling old stale Duran bakery  first time there and also will be last time there
    Ben S.

    Bought a few things there today for the first time. Was kind of skeptical when the guy said you have to microwave it for 30 seconds before you eat it. Bought it anyways to try. Did what he said and off course idiot me bought old stale bakery here first and last . If you like not fresh bakery come here

    Red bean, Ming bean and taro buns.
    James L.

    We stumbled upon this little bakery after having lunch next door. I noticed the display case had rows of colorful baos on display, and that was enough to get my curiosity. Inside is small. There are no seats, have mostly packaged foods and whatever is inside the glass case. Our first time, we tried their taro, custard and mung bean baos. A quick heat-up under a wet paper towel in the microwave and they came out warm and soft with a sweet filling. Second visit, I got 4 custard, 2 taro and 2 red bean, and I'm sure these will be equally good like the first time. According to the owner, these will keep in the fridge for about 2 weeks or much kk her in the freezer. Just steam them or try the microwave method to get that soft, pillowy texture again. Royal Bakery appears to be a small family run business, and their baos are quite good. I haven't tried their other sweet or savory buns yet, and that's just a good reason for me to go back again.

    BUN HEAVEN My family always comes here to grab as many Banh Bao as we can before heading up north. I personally came in to grab 30 Banh Bao before heading back and it was kind of hard to find at first but we'll worth it. Pretty sure the owner helped us out and he definitely gave us a good experience! It was a little less than $3 a Banh Bao! I am in love! Coming back soon for sure

    Generous amount of mung bean. $1.25 in 2022. Dough was a tad dry in my opinion.

    I only got to try the two sweet baos this trip. Previously my friend has gotten us the meat bao for a road trip and those are pretty heavy aka loaded with a pretty compact ball of meat and egg. They're not bad. The green sweet bao has mung bean inside. The first bite was pretty dry in my opinion as it got stuck on the top of my mouth and i couldn't even chew it (I had to manually unstuck it). After that you encounter a generous amount of yellow bean paste inside which is about a 4/5 in sweetness for me. It was warm as they had just made them. The dough isn't the glutenny kind that stretches. It was more like crumbly bread type. Mung bean and taro baos now $1.25. I can't say I am a fan of the baos but wanted to share some pictures and current price which is still not bad.

    The 3 different small baos are very good. They are also $1 each. Amazingly cheap for such good quality. I also tried their Viet style chicken bao and that was bomb dot com too. The secret is their dough, which doesn't crumble when you bite into it.

    I want to give a shout out to Royal Bakery because they have some delicious banh bao. I bought one of the OG pork baos to snack on while we waited for our table at dim sum. It was so good! I ended up going back to buy a dozen of the pork and one of each of the colorful ones to bring back home to SJ. The green one, which was mung bean, was SOOO good. I regret not buying more and I'm definitely gonna make a detour just to buy more of their mung bean banh bao. Bonus points- they accept card! I know a lot of mom and pop shops don't accept cards so this was very cool because I try my best not to carry cash due to safety concerns. Make sure you tip to cover their CC fees or bring cash.

    Jumbo Pork Bao
    Chri Y.

    Hands down one of the best baos I've tried!! My favorite is their jumbo pork bao. The bao is so fluffy and nicely sweetened on the outside and the inside is filled with pork, sausage, and egg that are perfectly seasoned with a mix of savory/umami and slight sweetness. Because the bao is pretty big and they put in a generous amount of meat inside, I think this could be a substantial snack when you're pretty hungry or even a good light meal. The owner is also super friendly and personable which made the experience even better for me! I will definitely be visiting this place quite often

    Soft Sesame Candy w/ Peanuts-$12 (I ate a few pieces already lol oops!)
    Jenny L.

    I was reading everyone's enthusiastic reviews about Royal Bakery's Lunar New Year goods, so I decided to stop by a few days ago! I specifically wanted to try the SOFT SESAME CANDY WITH PEANUT (8.5/10). When I arrived on a Tuesday afternoon, about 7 people were waiting in line. All the customers were middle-aged Asians who spoke Vietnamese/Chinese/etc so I knew this place was legit. One box of Soft Sesame Candy (pictured here--I ate a few pieces already lol oops) is $12. The candy is nice and soft with a slightly gelatinous texture. It isn't too sweet, which I appreciate. I also love the little bits of peanut inside. Overall, I enjoy this candy--and on the plus side, I only need to eat a small piece to feel satisfied, which is great for my health! The employees were pretty good about only allowing 4 customers in at a time, for social distancing reasons. The man at the cash register was very friendly. There is a large parking lot nearby, and a few more large parking lots on the same block, so you definitely have your parking options, especially if you go at a down time like a weekday afternoon.

    Mixed box
    Jennifer L.

    I enjoyed the desserts! So fresh and delicious! They have bag ones for $10 and boxed ones for $12. I wanted to try the mix, so opted for the box. Loved all three flavors (White/Black sesame and peanuts). Got a mix feeling about the pork buns. The bun itself was very dry but the fillings really good, with pork and egg.

    Dessert in Alhambra, Los Angeles, California…read more.. When my friends asked me where we were going for Dessert, I replied, "Patisserie Too"! I had this place bookmarked for the cute pudding bears! I didn't know that there were many other options (shapes and flavors)... and baked goods, too. Some of us joined the Loyalty Program and got a free egg custard tart... yay! It was yummy! The cashier was very patient with us! Thank you! Of course, I had a cute bear... it was creamy and not too sweet. I did feel bad about cutting him up into bite-sized pieces. Haha! Note: we all walked over from another restaurant that had free covered parking!

    Heard about the egg tarts here and we came to check it out. Wow! 99 cents each portugués egg…read moretart??? What an insane deal! We got some to try and it's not too sweet! Very good deal!!! However, I didn't have a good experience with their service. I asked if we can wait for the new batch of portugues tarts because the remaining ones looked too burnt to me. The lady answered" this is how it supposed to look". Then I said there are differences between some of them, because I saw the previous customer got some of the less burnt ones. The attitude of this lady wasn't friendly at all and was very blunt. I didn't feel good after her response but I insisted on waiting for the new batch. Then I saw other customers buying more of the remaining ones and this lady would purposely pick out the less burnt ones for them. So this action shows that she agrees that not all portugués tart are equal! I mean I am glad she is picking out the less burnt ones for those customers but she just conflicted of what she said to me! Only if she explained with a more polite attitude or say I can try my best to pick out the less burnt ones for you. I just do not appreciate people who is not very nice while they are in the customer service industry. I am still giving this place a 4 star because the price is great for the quality of pastries they make! They also provide a very nice box too when you order more egg tarts.

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.

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!

    As the name of the bakery implies, it's "Perfectly Sweet"…read more I'm generally a bit more wary of purchasing baked goods from non-Asian bakeries since they tend to be sweeter than what my palate likes, but not here! The hours are a bit limited, but I managed to make it in time to grab some pre-made baked goods to go. I got a bag of coconut macaroons, bag of several chocolate chip cookies, 2 red velvet cookies, a baked dog cookie biscuit, and a cute Keroppi sugar cookie. Most of these ended up being gifts, but I did enjoy one of the red velvet cookies and for an already sweet flavor profile with white chocolate chips in it, I was already fearing the worse, but went perfect with a glass of milk. The edges were nicely crisped by the baking too. Delicious. Love that they had a stock of cute, pre-decorated cookies available as well (some Sanrio characters, animals, etc.) They also list all the ingredients used in each of the baked goods that they have prepackaged, which is nice. It's also a cafe where you can order drinks, as well as a place you can order cakes custom order or what they have behind the glass already. There's both seating inside and outside.

    Perfectly Sweet is one of my all-time favorite bakeries!…read moreI've been coming here for years, and their Strawberry Shortcake is my absolute favorite light, fresh, and delicious every single time. I also love their cheesecake and fruitcake, which never disappoint. Whenever I need a birthday treat for a friend, I pick up one of their small cakes. They're always a hit! I especially love the edible chocolate "Happy Birthday" sign and how they package everything so beautifully in a white box with a gold bow and a lavender flower touch it's such a thoughtful and elegant detail. The customer service is consistently amazing warm, welcoming, and always helpful. Highly recommend Perfectly Sweet for anyone looking for high-quality, delicious desserts with a personal touch!

    I had a lovely experience at Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel). I ordered the Tiramisu Donut ($4.95)…read more It's a fluffy, BIG donut that tastes like a decadent tiramisu. It's also filled with a light, soft cream. DELICIOUS! I arrived at Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel) on a Wednesday (around 3:42PM). Parking is simple. There's a competitive customer parking lot. And there's a city public parking lot about a two minute walk away. Staff is very friendly, professional, and welcoming. Staff maintained a bright smile throughout my visit. Staff immediately helped me. Customers can order at the self-service kiosk or counter; however, the kiosk felt very dated & the prices on the kiosk felt less transparent. I recommend just ordering at the counter. There's no penalty for using card at this donut establishment. As mentioned, I love the Tiramisu Donut ($4.95). It's not too sweet; rather, it all felt balanced. However, this is a VERY messy donut; I recommend eating this donut with a fork and knife. The powder fall everywhere, and your clothes can quickly get stained with chocolate powder. Still, it's a delicious pastry. On ambiance, Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel) is comfortable. This business is more reminiscent of a cafe than a typical donut shop. There's customer internet with password; details on the counter. There's a gender neutral restroom. And there's an electrical outlet & outlet adaptor for devices. The location is fairly small; there's one interior table and one small counter. Fortunately, this place felt airy and well-ventilated. There's also some upbeat, fun music in this clean spot. Overall, I found unexpected joy at Old Ferry Donut (San Gabriel). There's sincere passion & hard work within these walls. If searching for a special donut for a special someone, this is an easy spot to recommend. 4.9 out of 5! Go!

There's a small parking lot in the back, but spaces can be hard to find and I ended up having to park on the street the first time I went. (FYI - they are going to open a Goomo tea shop on the corner in the same space!) D'ange has so many fun flavors of buns. I really liked the taro with mochi one. The only thing about the buns is that the fillings tend to be only on one side of the bun, so there are been times as I'm biting into the bun, I'm not getting any filling until the last couple bites. They even sell cookies and all different flavors of toast that would make some yummy brick toast desserts! And if you need a whole cake, they have them in the case ready to go too! The buns I got were great, as were the Portuguese egg tarts. They even sold Chinese tamales at my last visit, so I picked one up too. I don't know many places that sell these, and I used to eat them all the time when my grandma made them years ago, but now that no one in my family knows how to make them, it's a special treat if I can find it. They have ones with meat (with or without peanuts), and some with just the mung bean. They must be really know for this because 2 other parties ahead of me were buying tons of the tamales!

TGTG is an app that allows businesses to sell their leftover or flawed goods for a discounted price in a bundle of their choice. So you don't know what you get, BUT it reduces food waste (#sustainability) while being easier on your wallet. You pay a price they name and they give you the value they listed. The owner (I presume) handed us a prepackaged brown bag the moment we got there. It wasn't busy at all so the whole transaction was under 5 minutes. It's a mom & pop Asian bakery that's spacious and warm. Our surprise bag contained 7 mini breads: black sesame mochi, red sesame mochi, taro bun with filling, hot dog cheese bread, buo luo bao, ham + cheese bun, and another bread I couldn't quite identify. This is $21 value for $6.99 is what we paid. After heating them up, they tasted almost like fresh so we can't complain. However, I would say these days $3 would get you bigger buns at other similar bakeries, but their fillings were very generous, so it's hard to say. Parking has spots designated to the bakery so look out for the signs.

    I cannot begin to express how pleased I am with my experience here…read more I have called around to numerous bakeries and this was the only one that was within our budget! I think it's ridiculous other stores are charging $125+ for a 6 inch gender reveal cake (no decorations/ no writing). Is it because it's a gender reveal cake with either pink or blue frosting so they have to hike up the ridiculous prices?! Look no further everyone!! Get all your baked goods and beautifully made cakes here! Other places also want a week's notice before pick up. This spot is only 1 day!! I spoke to the owner over the phone and gave him the details of what my vision was for the cake. He made my vision come true, but even better than I thought it would be! And because you order the cake one day ahead, you can taste how moist and fresh the cake actually is! Versus if you were to order a week in advance anywhere else, the cake would be dry and brittle!!

This time I ordered a quarter sheet chocolate cake with chocolate cream. It was really good, rich enough to taste like chocolate but not so sweet that it became overwhelming. Everyone at the party seemed to enjoy it. They also open at 8am which makes pickup convenient if you need a cake for an early event. One little bonus: if you pay cash, there's usually a small discount. Let's just say Uncle Sam might not be getting invited to that party. Overall, a reliable bakery that I've been coming back to for years.
