    Walked in 10 minutes before closing praying for a miracle. Thank godddd they still had trays of FRESHLY baked cinnamon rolls. Most of the sweet pastries were gone - there were still plenty of savory options. The employees are all so sweet. They mentioned the raspberry almond pastry was sold out but a must try. Can't wait to get it the next time I'm in Pasadena :)

    Salted Butter Co in Pasadena before the Just like Heaven festival! 10/10 Cold Brew and ham and cheese. Probably the best cold brew i've had and they're not even known for their coffee! I know they're viral for their cinnamon rolls but that olive oil cupcake was so moist and full of flavor, I honestly feel like nothing here is a miss. Service is quick since they have a ton of people working, and it's a cool busy bakery vibe. Definitely will be coming back.

    Finally got around to try the famous Salted Butter Co. Everything was 10/10 with no complaints. The lattes were some of the best coffee I've ever had. Pastries, croissants, and cookies were all delicious. The service was quick and efficient. The only down side would be the parking! Super difficult to find a spot or anywhere to park for that matter.

    ​Salted Butter Company was definitely worth stopping by on our way home! The pastries were a total 10/10--fresh, flaky, and packed with flavor--and my matcha latte was absolutely delicious. ​A quick heads-up for future visitors: parking is fairly limited, and there isn't indoor seating available, so plan to grab your treats to go. That said, the incredible quality of the pastries and drinks makes it 100% worth the trip. We'll definitely be stopping back by!

    I was told/ordered to come here. Didnt know anything about it. Pricey af and thought it was another overpriced and overhyped place. 7 pastries for like $53. Mood was a little peeved. Staff was so nice and patient with me. Took the pastries home, started quartering them so we could taste it all. Blew my mind and my tastebuds. You really taste every flake of the croissant and the different textures and ingredients. Life changing and mind blowing. Ham n cheese croissant was good. The spinach n artichoke was good too. The cinamon roll was not bad, least favorite but still good. The almond rasberry croissant was epic along w chocolate babka, i can eat those all day. Amazing place. Pricey but amazing.

    Came here on a Friday around 10am and waited about a total of 10-15 min to get my pastries and drinks, so not bad at all! It's a bit small inside and no tables or chairs to sit down and eat at so it's definitely a to-go place. Their vanilla bean iced latte is SO GOOD! One of my fav lattes. I also love their ham & cheese croissant. They're perfectly flaky and buttery! The raspberry almond croissant was also really good, just a bit sweet, but paired well with a coffee.

    Came on a early Sunday morning and the line wasn't too bad but the only downside part will be the parking. About 90% of the parking spots are designated for the other establishments that are in that plaza so we just took the risk and parked in one. There's no outside parking either. The drinks were delicious and satisfying to the coffee palette. The baked goods were also delicious. I think if you really love sweets then this place is for you. We got some cookies, butter croissant, ham and cheese croissant and an apple fritter pastry. Just a taste of the apple fritter and I felt like I was on a sugar rush. I'm not much of a sweets person though. Other than that the service was extremely welcoming and the cashier was super friendly and had great customer service.

    I wanted to try Salted Butter because of all the social media hype, but honestly, it didn't quite live up to my expectations. The pastries were good, but nothing that really impressed me or made me feel they were worth the hype. One thing to keep in mind is that some of their menu items are seasonal, so if you're driving from far away for something specific, I'd recommend calling ahead to make sure it's available. The service was good, but it wasn't especially memorable. Also, there's no seating, so it's more of a grab-and-go spot. The biggest downside was the parking. The lot is extremely crowded, and many spaces have a strict 30-minute limit. Be careful, because it looks like towing is enforced. Overall, it was a decent experience, but for me, it wasn't anything extraordinary.

    I finally understand the hype about this place! Although it definitely is on the pricier side, I thought it was worth it for a special treat! I loved the spinach artichoke croissant as it was so unique and they carried this flavor out excellently. The ham and cheese croissant had plentiful filling and I loved how flaky yet soft the croissant is. I usually don't like cinnamon rolls but the croissant cinnamon roll was sooo good. The icing was perfect and I loved the texture.

    There is definitely hype around this spot but honestly I can see why. Small shop that has a decent and good looking selection of pastries and even some savories options but it seems like the quality revolves around timing and attention to detail. Lemme explain The drinks are decent but nothing I would talk about. The coffee isn't the strong point as the sweet element carries the lattes here and that's enough for a lot of people, so why not grab that tiramisu cold brew or brown butter maple latte? The pastries themselves are good but not great. The fritters have a satisfying crunch layer but if they've been sitting then the cold temp and slightly chewy bread brings it down a bit. The cookie was served to me looking ok but when I picked it up it fell apart like soft cookie lol. No heads up on waiting for it to settle but you'll notice an element of stress among the employees so I can understand. The pizza croissant (naughty knot) was actually pretty good but messy as it falls apart since puff pastry isn't meant to support melted cheese and oily pepperoni for long so fold it! It gets pretty crowded inside and there are two benches you can sit on but I think so wall mounted tables might have been better. Overall I wouldn't mind recommending a visit but it's probably worth 10 minutes of waiting for me and that's pushing it.

    Clockwise: cupcake with strawberry compote, earl grey bun, ham/cheese croissant, chocolate babka, plum danish, chocolate cookie

    Pasadena is truly blessed with so many bakeries, but whenever a new one opens up, the hype kind of gets out of control. I waited visiting this place out, so I'm pleased to report that on a Thursday at 9:30 am, there was basically no line. Good thing because this place is tiny and only has a couple of benches inside to sit. The servers were super efficient and polite, and all of the baked goods I ordered were top notch. I was especially impressed by the ham and cheese croissant and chocolate cookie as the croissant was soft and flaky, and the cookie was perfectly chewy. I also ordered a chai latte but wasn't super wowed by it. Next time I come, I'll get a coffee drink as I assume their coffee is better.

    Stopped by for a quick snack to drink with my coffee and found this hidden gem! There were so many delicious looking pastries that I wanted to purchase, but I decided on the Best Selling Chocolate Cupcake. It was uniquely delicious. Especially the mini fruit on top! Will def be back to try out the other pastries and drinks even. Seating area is very limited.

    I'd tried Salted Butter before when a friend brought me an almond croissant and a chocolate chip cookie. Both left a lasting impression, so I was excited to finally visit in person while I was in the Pasadena area. When we arrived, there was a small line out the door which we waited about 15 minutes before ordering. A friend had mentioned that you can walk in directly to order drinks only, but we decided to wait and place our entire order at once. The line first moves through the pastry display before you order drinks and pay at the register. We ordered seven pastries and one coffee which came out to about $53 including tax. While none of the new items we tried were particularly memorable, everything was enjoyable. The almond croissant and chewy chocolate chip cookie remained my favorites and were easily the standout items of the visit. The Iced Good Vanilla Bean Coffee was also yummy - flavorful without being overly sweet. One downside was the flow of the space. Drink pickups happen directly in front of the entrance, so customers often have to cut through those waiting in line for pastries. The shop itself is quite small, with only two benches available for seating, making it feel crowded during busy periods. Parking was a bit confusing. Most of the spots had signage but there appeared to be only two spaces specifically designated for Salted Butter customers.

    We couldn't be happier with the beautiful cake from Takes the Cake Pasadena for Naomi's 80th…read morebirthday! After contacting several bakeries, they were the only one confident enough to recreate our cake design--with incredible attention to detail and without relying on stencils for the bottom tier. They truly brought our vision to life. The cake was absolutely gorgeous and became one of the highlights of the celebration. It wasn't just beautiful--it tasted amazing too! The White Cake with Strawberry Mousse and Lemon Cake with Raspberry Mousse were both huge hits with our guests. The cake was incredibly moist, soft, and perfectly fluffy without being overly airy. Best of all, it was not overly sweet, allowing the delicious flavors to really shine. They also delivered the cake on time, making the entire experience stress-free. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful and delicious the cake was. Thank you, Takes the Cake Pasadena, for helping make Naomi's 80th birthday so special. We will definitely be ordering from you again! Thank you MS Lynn!

    I ordered a cake a few weeks for my gender reveal. I got a quick, same day response via email with…read morea quote. I sent pictures of inspiration and my friend then connected with Lynn and Shari to update the gender once results were in. They were even accommodating to have it earlier than 2 weeks. The website feels a little outdated but all the information is accessible and also helpful to see pictures of previous projects. I used google images for inspo pictures and they executed 10/10. So happy with the results. Not to mention.... The cake was delicious. A great bakery with great service!!!
