Salswee - Matcha croissant - Bakeries Near Me - New York, New York

Okay, I've been influenced and I'm not afraid to admit it. After seeing countless reels about this trendy bakery, we decided to stop on by. We liked what we saw. Really pretty baked goods stacked up crafted in an aesthetic fashion. This is a pricey experience, even for New York. A small Yuzu baked good was $10. Others, including small slices of cakes, were pushing well north of $20~30. We did not try those. The Yuzu itself was a delight, bursting with flavor and just the right amount of firmness. We had to wait a while in line, even after what I consider to be peak hours (7PM EST) so take that into consideration. Tables were also somewhat limited as well. However, well worth it - just be prepared to wait and open your wallet! read more

I agree with the reviews that appreciate the beauty of the products, just gorgeous. The flavors of my pear were on point. I cracked into the outside to a icy cold pear compote and soft creamy filling inside. I'd eat one daily if I could! read more

As soon as I walked in, I fell in love with the simple but warm ambiance. As soon as you walk through the door, you're met with a plethora of beautiful pastries and desserts. I can tell this place was popular because every table was filled. Something to note is that many of the desserts that looked like other things had nuts. Luckily, the Christmas Apple had no nuts so I got that one. It was so good! It was both tarte and rich. There were so many textures--brittle and fluffy. I recommend it. I will def come again, and I can't wait to try the rest of the options next time! read more

Very elevated pastry shop - it's one big open space with about 15 small tables and a cafe at the back. All the beautiful pastries are fully displayed and boy are they gorgeous. I got the matcha croissant and yuzu flower pastry - loved both! The Yuzu flavor wasn't too strong but still tasty for yuzu lovers. Randomly saw Ronny Chieng and Simu Liu grabbing some pastries here one day! read more

Came on a Saturday evening and it was PACKED. At first it seemed like all the pastries were sold out. Luckily, as we were waiting in line more and more trays of pastries from the kitchen were sent out. We ended up trying the Yuzu, the mango, the tiramisu, and the cheesecake. The yuzu was super tropical tasting with the creamy passionfruit, strawberry, and yuzu mousse and frozen guava coulis filling. The rice cracker at the bottom also added a nice contrast in texture to the dessert and helped to balance out the sweetness. I would recommend this to those looking for a more tangy-sweet dessert. (7.5/10) The mango was a mango lovers dream. It is very similar to the viral mango ice cream sold at the Asian Supermarkets as it has the same white chocolate shell with a mango ice cream and a frozen mango coulis on the inside. It was definitely our favorite of the ones we tried as the flavor nearly mimics that of a fresh mango and is not artificial in the slightest. (8.5/10) The tiramisu was a bit disappointing because though the cream was smooth and the flavors of the coffee were there, the lady fingers were definitely not soaked properly so they were a bit hard and stale. (4/10) The cheesecake was super creamy and moist. The subtle vanilla flavoring paired with the whipped cream and blueberry topping was a dreamy bite. (8/10) Overall, all of the pastries were super aesthetic and well crafted. Not only are they visually appealing, but for the most part the flavors match up to their looks. There is very limited seating and all the table are meant for parties of 2 so keep that in mind. The line moves really quickly and the service is efficient. I would definitely come back to try more desserts! read more

We visited SALSWEE shortly after they opened back in May. They offer French style desserts and Viennoiseries, as well as some savory items like sandwiches. They had all the offerings in show window cases to the right, and some seating to the left. You can walk down while making your selection, all the way down to where the registers are at the end. The selection of their sweet and savory items all looked so amazing! It was as if we were at a gallery, looking at some beautiful artworks. They had a handful of artistic "illusion desserts" that looked like fruits. We got Orange, Yuzu, and Mushroom cakes. We also ordered Caramel Latte and Sesame Latte. Yuzu had a cute flower on top. The mousse and filling had a lovely yuzu flavor, without overpowering the other flavors. I loved the tropical flavors with the yuzu, it was so delicious! It was not too sweet, but elegantly sweet. The Mushroom was so cute, and they did great job making it look semi-realistic. It has mousse cream shaped mushroom head and the stem is made out of white chocolate. Inside of the stem, it is filled with strawberry puree. It is definitely sweeter than the others I tried but it's a very creative and eye-catching cake. Last but not least, Orange that looks so realistic! If you saw this on a counter somewhere, you will not think that this is a dessert at all! When we opened it up, it was impressive to look at as well. It had orange filling with bits of pulps in it, which I loved. The combination of the sweet and the acidic and tart orange filling was perfect! What an amazing dessert! We brought home one of their cakes, Matcha Cake. It is a perfect size for the two of us, or even for three people. It had airy and fluffy chiffon cake, with loads of matcha cream. I was happily surprised to see slices of strawberries in the layers. The matcha cream had the real matcha flavor with that distinctive bitterness, which balanced out the sweet flavor of the cream. The desserts are made fresh every day, and once they sold out, that's it. So if you are wanting a specific item that is very popular, then you might need to head there earlier to ensure you get it before they run out. read more

Come early enough to get the Mango! Omg. What an amazing place. Hyper realistic cakes that taste as amazing as they look - beautiful concept, the workers here are artists. Nick was amazing, super helpful to me - refrigerated my cakes while I went out to dinner and was friendly the entire time even though it was so busy!

I'd had this bakery on my list for a while, and I'm glad I finally made it out! I'm a sucker for Asian flavoured / themed desserts and Salswee executed well. They have so many different cake and pastry options - I got the strawberry cake, which I really liked. Oftentimes I find the American style of strawberry shortcake unsatisfying compared to the Asian counterpart - the strawberry is syrupy (in a bad way) and the whipped cream can leave a sort of waxy feeling in your mouth. Salswee didn't fall prey to any of that, as the cake was light and had a fresh strawberry taste! It's a bit pricy at almost $20, but the cake is definitely bigger than a single portion size. I will definitely be back! They had a ton of great options and I'd love to try some more. They also sell Devocion coffee, which is a nice touch. read more

This place has such beautiful desserts!! We tried the mango and the coconut. The mango was amazing and not too sweet ;) The coconut tasted more like a mix of passionfruit/mango flavor and not enough coconut but it was still good. Super impressive how they created a mini coconut on top! Will be back to try the others! The mango sticky rice looks so good read more

There is definitely a big difference in the number of selections coming here on Wed 1pm vs Friday 4pm. I was looking forward to trying their mushroom and chestnut cake but these were sold out. So instead we tried the following: - Yuzu flower cake- nice yuzu flavor but could have left out the hard rice crispy bottom. - Chocolate banana - very light tasting banana and chocolate mouse on the inside but not memorable. - Blueberry cake - Moist but the blueberry jam inside was too sweet for me. - Flatiron chocolate croissant- Do not recommend as it was dry on the inside. - Mango rice pudding cake - love how moist and sweet this cake was. Wish the mangos were more ripe but the cake itself was great as it soaked in the coconut rice pudding. The desserts are a work of art and it is fun to try them out with another friend. It has a nice modern interior but the atmosphere is very casual as you order and grab your own seats. Unfortunately, they do not provide bathrooms for their customers. Thankfully Eatly was nearby. Salswee is definitely worth a visit to see the beautiful desserts. As far as the quality and taste, Lysee and Lady M in the area are better. Will update next time when I get to try some of the sold out pastries. read more

Desserts were all so pretty and delicious BUT- We had a gray BUG crawl out of the rice crispy layer!! Just casually moving on our plate when we were dining... A gray bug that doesn't fly!! When brought back to the counter to show them, they immediately took it back, refunded me that one piece of dessert... no explanation, act like nothing happened.. In my opinion- I hope they clean their kitchen and can improve on customer service/damage control read more

Everytime I come here I convince myself I'm going to try something new to be able to give it a properly rating/review. Everytime, I just end up getting the matcha croissant because it's soooooooo good, and I haven't found anything like it. Probably in my top 5 favorite sweet treats in NYC(and actually the world lol) Usually I dislike pastries with filling but the matcha filling in here is absolute perfection, and the matcha chocolate on top is SO GOOD I would honestly buy just that. Croissant itself is nice and soft too (if it was plain I'd prefer it to be a bit more buttery). I'm also really snobby about matcha flavored desserts because usually it doesn't even taste like matcha, but they nailed the flavor here! Strong and creamy matcha flavoring!!! Don't bother getting the coffee here - it's pretty mid and there's so many other coffee shops w better drinks nearby. Also, despite the absolutely delicious matcha croissant, the matcha latte itself is not good. Come here for the pastries, not the drinks. read more

Super pretty desserts but I think they def look better than they taste. Not much seating inside so we got take out. Pretty ones didn't make it home without melting, most are a majority mousse and cream based. The pastries are pretty good though. Creme brulee tart and matcha bun were tasty. Flaky and layery dough. read more

This was impressive. The art behind the pastries is just top notch. You almost feel sorry you have to destroy it to eat it. I had seen this place in Miami and decided to go with friends to try it in NYC. Wow. The cloud and the mushrooms were absolutely incredible. My other friend had the strawberry tarte and he said it was equally impressive. I like the fact that the ingredients are displayed so you can get an idea of what you are in for. This place can get very crowded and there are only a limited amount of seats, so plan carefully. Prices are a bit higher than I was hoping for, but the quality certainly makes up for it. Highly recommended. read more

Stopped in here because I've never been. The desserts are beautiful and they all looks so tasty. The chestnut cake definitely desserts the highest level rating of "it's not too sweet" good!

This place is so cute but definitely doesn't have enough seating for the attention it gets. They have a variety of cakes, croissants, and larger cakes too. I got a cloud cake and a Ferrero cake. They came out to around $32. Not terrible but not cheap either. They have some seating but upon writing this review I didn't have a seat. Perhaps they can add more in the future? I didn't get a chance to order a drink but definitely will seeing them from others. Very cute bakery near flat iron and will definitely be back. read more

Walked passed by and decided to try a few things. Got the coconut, pear, ham and cheese and the tiramisu. This is the one place I would say from all those viral videos the dessert is actually pretty good. Not too sweet and the flavor for each is done well. Definitely lost the star for the drinks. They were terrible. The cortado very sour and the blue coconut was more a gimmick that looks nice. Nothing special. I would recommend the desserts but drinks not so much. read more

The cashier was very friendly and the space was nice, enough seating to relax. The Mango has a tangy and sweet flavor; I almost thought it was passionfruit, but there were also mango pieces! I appreciated how perfectly balanced it was, and the filling was quite soft. My favorite out of all of them! The Orange had a pleasant ganache flavor, an orange pulp/puree, and a silky texture. You can taste the white chocolate in all the fruit pastries so far. The Banana also has puree filling and the chocolate reminded me of an ice cream. The Mushroom had vanilla, jelly and strawberry bits, it was a lot more simplistic. The tiramisu was very yummy, it had a good balance of coffee and cream. Not too sweet or bitter. Overall it was a pleasant experience and I recommend coming on the weekdays! read more

Desserts were great, but the service was kind of confusing. We stopped by for some desserts--everything looked beautiful, and what we tried tasted great. But the service left us scratching our heads. When we got there, there was no mango on display, so we asked the staff at the counter, "Hey, will there be more mango soon?" He ran to the back and came back saying, "Yeah, it's almost done--maybe five minutes." Awesome--so we ordered mango, banana, and pear. He brought us the banana and pear but didn't mention the mango. After a bit, we checked in and he said, "Sorry, we're out of mango. I rang you up for it, but I don't know when it'll be ready--maybe in an hour." That was confusing since he just told us five minutes earlier. We asked for a refund on the mango--and then, right at that moment, another staff member walked out with a fresh tray of mango. The whole thing felt weird and unnecessary. Again, the desserts were lovely, but the service was pretty inconsistent and left us unsure what was going on. read more

Unique desserts that are too pretty to eat. The cakes looked so good, but i could not justify buying one and the calories that would ensue. The inside of each of the pastries we tried was a surprise for all of us and not overly sweet. I had the guava, which tends to be overly sweet when featured in most desserts, but it was nicely balanced with yuzu, strawberry and other deliciousness. read more

4 stars for the dessert and 1 star for service. This place creates the most incredibly beautiful deserts. They have gorgeous cakes that have some of the most amazing flavors. I cannot wait to come back to try the Ferro rocher. The mousse is also divine! They have multiple flavors and each piece is shaped like the flavor it represents. The mango and banana are so life like! Also save room for the orange. Anyway, you cannot go wrong with the desserts you pick. Everything is However, what I did not like at all was the service. I initially asked how to get a table and eat here. The cashiers said we don't control them. You can take your desserts to go. Anyway, it took a little proding to find out tables are first come first serve, you order at the counter. Anyway, we got our table and when we went to order, they were out of plates. ‍ TLDR:, great desserts, pretty pricey, but don't count on enjoying a dine in experience.

Good: It's really aesthetic, there are tables you can actually sit at, and there is a wide variety of sweet and savory pastries. Bad: The pastries are gorgeous - but while the standard offerings are fairly average (like a croissant), their gorgeously done pastries are a huge let down. My friend grabbed the cloud and I grabbed the tangerine pastry. About $10-12 per pastry, not enough to share - and it's 70% cream. Not much flavor to write home about, and my tangerine, while very cute, was literally generous plain cream wrapped around a small smushed and frozen tangerine... with a thin orange-colored white chocolate wrapped around it... Somehow, even with frozen tangerine in the middle, this tasted like nothing. And no bathroom (a little surprising for a sit-down spot with drinks)! I also grabbed a jasmine latte which was disappointingly not as fragrant as I would hope. Everything's photogenic, but it's not worth the visit. read more

I've been wanting to come here for several weeks to see what the hype was all about but also I love love love desserts. Came on a Sunday in September 2024 and the line seemed long but went fast. The interior is cute and has a clean look. There aren't too many seats but they open up quick. We got the mango, the yuzu and the passion fruit desserts. The mango was our favorite - the cream inside with the mango filling was yummy, the execution is quite nice. However for $12 before tax, I'm not sure if this is something I would come back for. It's reminiscent of the Hmart mango ice creams that have come out which are cheaper and have similar taste. The yuzu was our 2nd fave. The inside is chilly and smooth, and complements well with the rice crispy bottom crunch. I think the reason we liked the mango more was because it had actual fruit in it. The passion fruit was a bit disappointing. It's more of a tiramisu with a little bit of a passion fruit puree in the top cream layer. Definitely would have been nice to have more passion fruit. The bottom cookie layer was too hard and not easy to incorporate with each bite unless you actually took the cookie into your mouth with your hand. The desserts are really picturesque and beautiful and they are tasty. But for the price point, I would rather go to Lysee or somewhere else in the city for high end desserts. Salswee is not great in my opinion for the value but if you are going for the first time and trying out really cute and well-made desserts, then it's worth a try at least once without overdoing it. read more

(Overall: B) - Salswee is a beautiful dessert shop that has incredibly hyper-realistic fruits and other trend setting desserts. Surprisingly, however, while attention to detail is the highlight of their pastries, this is the area the frontline staff seems to lack, they served all three of these items on a single plate for 2 people, which seems impractical to both eat and promote the individual beauty of their desserts, especially considering how the chocolate on the croissant melts onto the plate. Aside from this, this desserts are quite nice so could be worth checking out. (Orange: S) - I am very impressed with the realism of this dessert on the outside. On the inside, it tastes like an orange creamsicle which is a very pleasant flavor palette to work with. I was particularly fond of the orange pulp to further drive texture and realism. (Mushroom: A+) - Mushroom on the outside and strawberry on the inside. The presentation and attention to detail was immaculate as you can see the dirt color at the stem of the mushroom, and the white rim at the mushroom cap as well. (Flat Iron Croissant: D) - This type of croissant has been viral recently and it is pretty like a cookie, but I felt like it just doesn't make sense as it tastes like a croissant with all the air removed, which is counterintuitive to all the hardwork made to build those layers and air pockets. It also does not taste crispier to warrant the flattening of such a croissant. -- Food: E Presentation: +2 Price: E Atmosphere: E Service: -1 Menu: +2 Overall: +3 B Insta/Beli/TikTok: @amei_eats read more

The cutest French bakery meets Asian desserts spot in Manhattan - as soon as you walk in you'll be greeted by rows and rows of pastries and treats. More iconically they are known for their fruit and vegetable shaped treats. The yuzu dessert appealed to us and it did not disappoint. Lightly sweet and tart, the yuzu and guava flavor paired together nicely. The store is on the pricier side but it's definitely worth the visit for a little pick me up or celebration. Plenty of seats on the side, with a minimalist modern cafe vibe. read more

If you're on the hunt for a new go-to dessert spot that's not just cute for the feed but actually slaps -- Salswee is it. Yeah, the line might test your patience, but trust me, it's worth it. I fully expected it to be all aesthetic and no flavor... but nope. She's pretty and she hits. 10/10 taste test! The mango pastry at Salswee is a must-try -- it sells out fast. I think we took the last one and it was about 2:30 pm at the time. It looks just like a real mango (the detail is insane), with a matte, crunchy shell. Inside, there are mango chunks and a mango mousse that is super creamy and delivers a perfect mango essence without being too sweet. Me and my family loved it. The yuzu dessert was a citrusy-sweet kind of a mousse drop with a rice crispy base. The textures all came together and it was SO satisfying to eat. It had a glossy, pink-yellow ombré shell that was smooth and soft. We also ordered the cloud but the cashier forgot about it and we were pretty bummed out because she was the one who actually recommended it to us. Though, she was very apologetic and did give us a refund. Overall, the entire process of ordering and getting the desserts was a little hectic and disorganized and honestly I wouldn't have remembered that cloud pastry either. Overall both pastries were delicious and insta-worthy, but service, seating and organization was kind of a mess. Would def come back at a better time. read more
