I used to come here months back every-time I had to do a food delivery for MOW's when I worked for them. I would do drop off for my clients and I found this place one time looking for a bathroom. I thought I had left a review months back and I saw I didn't. The lady who helped me months back was so sweet. I would always come in so she gave me a free cupcake to try once. I have tried their halo halo, different cupcakes. Today I got the biscoff latte (iced) and a ube tiramisu latte. Both delicious! 3 cannolis 1 biscoff and two pistachios. Everything here is so good! Definitely will come back when I am in the area. I don't have the old pictures of the cupcakes. read more

Friendly staff, easy parking, and a delicious Biscoff latte. They also have a few tables if you want to hang out for a bit, plus a customer restroom. I also ordered the 8-inch caramel cake for $32. It's estimated to serve 10 to 12 people, but I think it could easily feed at least 15 depending on how you slice it. It reminded me of butter mamon and wasn't overly sweet, which I really liked. They offered to write a message on the cake, and it only took about five minutes. If you're looking for a different cake flavor, be sure to order at least a week in advance. read more

Sugar Toof - Hercules, CA A sweet stop that never disappoints. Stopped by Sugar Toof for my usual cream puff and somehow ended up leaving with more than I planned -- which seems to happen every time I visit. While I was there, I got distracted by their merchandise corner and found the cutest neighborhood market-inspired tote bag that I had to grab for The Kid. For treats, I picked up the Choco Caramel Cupcake, a rich chocolate cupcake filled with chocolate ganache and topped with decadent caramel buttercream. If you're a chocolate lover, this one is definitely worth trying. I also got my favorite cream puff, topped with a crunchy brûléed sugar crust. The choux pastry is light and airy, the custard filling is rich and creamy, and the contrast in textures makes it one of my favorite desserts in the area. I couldn't leave without trying the Bombolino, which was described as a doughnut filled with a crème brûlée-style custard. One bite and I understood why people love it. The pastries here are consistently delicious, and the service is always warm and welcoming. So happy to have Sugar Toof back. Definitely one of my favorite spots when I'm craving something sweet. read more

Okay, an update is needed because their menu got more options!! They got new flavors of lattes, halo halo, and new food items! Staff are always friendly and energetic no matter the time of day. The longanisa sandwich was like a bahn mi. Their halo halo is yummy and you can pick up to 2 flavors of ice cream. Can't wait to try their new flavor lattes one of these days. read more

Cute modern cafe and coffee shop featuring Filipino desserts and pastries, upscale coffee options and some intrigung savory dishes as well. The staff was welconing and the interiot and a warm modern vibe with good seating options. We tried the Ube Tres Leches Cupcake, Ube Pandan Cupcake and Pandan Panna Cotta. Everything was deliciously crafted and exquisitely presented. We are sure to be back for their other treats as well as savory options - in particular the empanadas and Crab "Aligue" Pasta! read more

Okay seriously?! The chicken and beef empanadas are absolutely incredible. They're almost like a croissant - buttery, flaky, and perfectly layered, yet somehow sturdy enough to hold all of the amazing filling inside! Every bite is packed with flavor and the fillings are seriously out of this world. Let's just say they're not your tita's ordinary empanadas. And can we talk about the garlic sauce? They should honestly sell it by the gallon because it's THAT good. I found myself wanting to put it on everything. Thanks for changing the empanada game, Joe & Kate! read more

Arrived just as they opened. They are located in a shopping plaza in a shared parking lot. Place is clean, with great music, and plenty of indoor seating. The employees were friendly, nice and patient with me as I browsed, took photos and looked at merch. I ordered several items including an iced matcha nana, beef and veggie empanadas, a corned beef bun, a Nutella turnover, a banana pudding and a tomato feta pastry. Everything was presented beautifully. I didn't have to wait long for my items. Service was quick! The iced matcha nana was very light. Barely tasted the matcha or the banana. It looked pretty but the flavor wasn't there. The beef empanadas were delicious! They were perfectly flaky and the beef was seasoned well. It paired nicely with their green sauce which was bright and provided some acidity- worked great together! I would totally come back for this. I haven't tried the other items yet, but overall, i think it's worth checking out and I would come back to try their other drinks. read more

Kiddo loves pandan and wanted to check out this Filipino bakery. Quite a few sweets to choose from, but decided on the pandan coconut panna cotta and ube pandan cupcake. Couldn't really taste the pandan or coconut in the panna cotta - mostly just tasted eggy. As for the cupcake, kiddo liked the ube cupcake but didn't really care for the pandan topping. What we did like was the ube tiramisu latte. Ordered a hot one and an iced one - maybe a tad sweet but good caffeine fix. read more

I don't even know where to begin. The gender reveal chocolate ganache cake was a hit and the mama to be LOVED the cake. Their cream puffs are the BEST. I've had cream puffs from all over the world and this is #1. My kids love their chocolate crinkle cookies and Oreo hojicha cookies, too. So glad they're in my neighborhood so I can indulge!! read more

Just had their corn beef pan de sal, it was a nice size and so soft and perfect. We get their crinkle cookies all the time, empanadas are super yum. We used to go to the old location but they really have up their game at this new location. So many ube flavored cupcakes, so moist and perfect merry of flavors. We just want to try everything and have yet to try their drinks but they also look yum read more

In addition to their phenomenal cakes and pies, they have amazing chocolate chip cookies, cream puffs, empanadas and this off the hook thing called a "SYLVANA" which is gluten-free and has buttercream and is rolled in pistachios or some other nut. The people there are so kind and positive. This is the only bakery I go to. read more

Recently came back shortly after opening. Service was meh and I was watching them be not so helpful to a door dasher because of a language barrier. That just got kind of put me off. I got some empanadas and cupcakes again this time. I tried the longsilog and I was low key disappointed. The food did not taste fresh, rice was hard like day old, longanisa was decent. For the price and portion you are better off making it at home or buying elsewhere. It was $16 and an abomination. It was trying to be all fancy and dressed up but fell flat. I've had this on my list to go to since it first opened. When you walk inside it's actually bigger than you think on the outside. They have plenty of seating. I was overwhelmed with all the items on the display case. Strawberry danish: Looks scary but is delicious. Soft, tart pastry. It kind of falls apart, dough soggy in the middle. I warmed it up in the toaster oven a little and it gave it nice crunchy edges Coconut tart: Loved the nice thick crust like a pie crust. The coconut on top was perfect. Honestly, I couldn't stop eating it Caramel cupcake: Delicious it reminded me of a cake that we used to get for my grandma on birthdays.. Bae's coff: Chocolate cupcake dry, buttercream good but hard Ube oreo cream cheese: Soft and delicious. Easily 2 bite cupcake. Mango caramel cupcake: Mango is typically my go to and the lady who was helping me said it was her favorite. Sadly this was a let down the cupcake was soft but I didn't really taste the mango. Dubai chocolate cupcake: I enjoyed the filling throughout the cupcake. It made the chocolate cupcake less dry. Buttercream a little hard. Ube caramel cupcake: Deliciously soft and flavorful. Cream on top was soft with the sweet caramel. Beef empanada: Meaty and flaky pastry. One of the first empanadas in a long time that wasn't mostly potatoes, peas,carrots, and raisins. It was nothing but beef. Chicken empanada: Meaty and flaky pastry. Ube tiramisu latte: This was more coffee than ube. Even after stirring I mostly tasted coffee with a hint of coconut. I'm not sure where the tiramisu flavor is. The picture made it look cool but what I got didn't look like the picture. This place is a hidden gem. I came here on a Sunday right before closing. The ladies were nice that helped me. Everything was so good I can't wait to come back. Upon looking at the website more after visiting, I believe they either worked or owned Sunflower Bakery. That's why the caramel cupcakes were so amazing. It's the one I used to go with my grandma. I highly recommend this place and can't wait to come back soon. read more

Literally in line right now as I type this to order more Banana Cream Dreams. Excellent food and desserts! The veggie and chicken empanadas were excellent , the noodles , the pistachio sylvanas solid, were great but all fail in comparison to the Banana Cream Dream. Come here for the empanadas, stay for the cream dreams! read more

Place is poppin' during late afternoon merienda time. :p The empanadas are *amazingly* flaky! Dare I say the pastry crust is on par with the one used for the meat pies at Porto's Bakery (IYKYK). I specifically tried the chicken and beef empanadas. No skimping on the meat filling but the fillings are kinda bland. Chimichurri and aioli sauces are served on the side, but I still wished the filling was traditional-Filipino-style with peas, carrots, potatoes, and the most controversial empanada ingredient addition, raisins (yeah I'm team raisin, sue me!). I also tried the ube tres leches cupcake; flavorless whipped cream frosting but the soaked cake part has a bold ube flavor to it. Overall nice little chilled treat especially on a summer day. Wanted to try out the silvanas but they were sold out at the time of my visit. Very friendly staff. Humble interior; good for a no-fuss catch-up date with a friend. Ample plaza parking. read more

There is something about the caramel cupcakes from Sugar Toof that hit every time. Now open in a new location in Hercules, Sugar Toof is back and I was so excited to stop in to try my first ever iced tiramisu ube flavored latte. Delicious and so pretty to look at! There are so many beautiful items to choose from, with a mix of Filipino x Italian fusion. So cool! I ordered a few empanadas to-go because I was on the run (love the different dipping sauces per filling type), but would love to come back and go ham with the array of desserts and Chicken Milanese sandwich. All in all, still so happy to see those caramel cupcakes behind the glass! There's plenty of seating inside and plenty of free shopping center parking. Service was great, you can tell everyone truly enjoys working here and has a love for what they're doing/selling/making. Loved the interior aesthetics and the good crowd of excited patrons that came in while I was there that knew about their old location. Forever fans! Looking forward to many future visits to come.. read more

Heard about this new cafe from Nextdoor.com, and we decided to check it out when we were in the area. Sugar Toof is a very clean and cozy cafe, with many Ube specialty drinks and desserts. We ordered a halo halo, Ube tiramisu latte, matcha strawberry latte, bunko pandan panna cotta, Ube tres leches cupcake, and an empanada. I have tried other places with Ube drinks/desserts and sometimes I find the Ube flavor lacking or too weak, but not here. My Ube tiramisu latte had good Ube flavor and is just right amount of sweetness for me. The same for the other drinks and desserts. All were satisfying in flavor and sweetness. Even the savory empanada tasted good and fresh. The halo halo had a good mix of ice cream with the other ingredients like fruit jellies, sweetened beans, etc. It is certainly rich but not overwhelming. The only critic I have was that the pandan panna cotta was a little too firm for my liking. I prefer the Italian version which is softer. We will come back again when we have the craving for Philippines style drinks and desserts. read more

Jan 24 2026 1 pm 3.8 stars Wife called to reserve a caramel cake. A pleasant voice tells her she can't reserve but can buy on line. Makes sense to me. Some customers are flaky. Wife goes to their website. The site looks appealing but There Is No Option to add food to the on-line cart. Wife calls the business again. The same pleasant voice says "On line purchasing doesn't work right? You can order with a credit card over the phone." I shake my head. I tell wife "Hell no. Doesn't sound safe." Pleasant voice then agrees to hold a cake for wife. Wife is in Sugar Toof now. We will see what happens. $32 read more

This little cute place is a nice dainty snack house. If ever you're craving for a filipino dessert or snack with coffee or any matcha drinks they have it. We already had our lunch and we just wanted to get some dessert and something to much on. One of our friends live closeby and she recommended this. The staff are really nice and attentive. Oh by the way they also have bellysilog-a meal w garlic rice fried egg and pork belly. We didn't order it because we just ate lunch. We were there just to have a dessert and bought a caramel cake for our birthday girl. I highly recommend. It read more

I've been here twice. I originally came in for the crab fat pasta but the guy at the counter explained they were out and about to change the menu. Service is outstanding and they don't mind answering questions either! So, I ordered the Dry Pork Sinigang and a chicken empanada. (and the second time I ordered the sinigang again with a matcha drink). The interior is modern with counter service. You can pick up and order baked goods too. read more

Man, I really hate to give bad reviews, but I really feel it's my duty to let others know about my experience with the food and desserts from Sugar Toof. It was a Thursday afternoon, and I remembered seeing their empanadas on Instagram. I was very excited get it. We ordered their Chicken, their Beef and their Vegetable empanada. First off, the outer shell of the empanada was ok. I kind of expected it to be less flaky. Maybe others like it flaky, but it just wasn't for me. The chicken was very dry. The Beef didn't have much filling. And the Vegetable, I don't know what to say about it. It wasn't anything special. The one thing that really disappointed me was their "Dubai Cupcake". I have to strongly not recommended this at all. If you know Dubai Chocolate items, they usually have kataifi inside. First bite into it, something didn't seem right. I opened the cupcake more and noticed the kataifi was raw. It was not crispy, it was not toasted, it was just like raw dough. It didn't even seem to have the pistachio cream. I was very disappointed in this and just threw the rest after taking a picture of it to warn others. Granted, maybe that Thursday they somehow forgot to toast the kataifi, but that really messed things up for me. The one thing that was ok was the Carmel Cupcake. But I wouldn't make a trip out here just for their Carmel cupcake. I wish this place luck, but I will not be returning. read more

Re-located at their new location next to Round Table Pizza with plenty of parking and bigger space with a public restroom. I love how the new place is grabbing plenty of attention. I dislike that Sugar Toof does not have wifi with the tables that is provided inside. Sugar Toof got plenty of employees working there and they have expanded their menu now serving empanadas. I love their cookies and I want to try their cakes. I wonder if the City of Hercules would love to have a Coffee with the City or should I say Pastry with the City. Keep up the good business Sugar Toof! read more

If you have a sweet tooth, this place will fix your cravings for cookies, cupcakes, and cakes. It's a Filipino-owned business and they also serve Filipino breakfast like linzlog and corned beef Zlog.

They're not that sweet but creamy. We have to try their cakes next time we have a big celebration read more

The staff here are some of the sweetest people you will ever encounter! Very kind, helpful, patient and accommodating. I've been here several times since they've opened this new location, and each time I leave with such a full heart. Kindness goes such a long way in my book. My ultimate favorite is their ube tres leches cupcake. It's like eating a moist delicious fluffy cloud with just the perfect amount of sweetness. Yumm! I've also had their caramel cake, reminds me of my childhood from Sunflower Bakery. I heard the people who own and run Sugar Toof are relatives of the old Sunflower. The empanadas were smackin too! My coworker loves this place so much that she tells me about their whole menu all the time. I swear she works there! She makes everything sound so good, I cannot wait to try for myself. We tried to order a cake for a future party, but they were booked out for the whole month. They felt so bad and tried really hard to accommodate us, but it ended up not working out for our schedule. The fact that they tried and even called extra bakers to help us is something I will never forget. I will forever support this business and I'm so happy to see them thriving and busy! read more

Let's start this out! The place is very modernized. Very clean. The workers look happy to be there. The layout is perfect for this design of establishment. They were very informative with any question I had about the items. Ube Latte- 4.5/5 - very good. It's sweet, but not to sweet. It has a very good frothiness to it. You can taste the coffee. It's a great balance. Love the toasted coconut on top. Would like just a tad bit more Ube flavoring. But overall solid. Mango cupcake - 4.5/5 - the cake is super lite and airy like a chiffon. The frosting had just enough mango flavor. Not too sweet also. Just need a little more pop of the mango. But another great item. Crab head butter noodles - 5/5 - who would have known that a bakery has food like this. This right here is a restaurant quality dish. It seems to be a play on pancit fusion. I love you. The head butter is super pronounced in this dish. Have some fried chicharon that adds layers to this complex dish. The shrimp were cooked perfect with a nice bouncy snap. If they added just a couple little piece of fresh lump crab this would be perfect. Other than that it's a winner. Pistachio cannoli - 3.8/5 - Its really tasty but lacks in certain areas. I didn't get the pistachio flavor I was looking for. The shell was good but a little more crunch goes a long way. The cream to me seemed a little heavy where I could taste the fat it in. I would love that to be covered up more so I don't taste it. Overall a 5/5 I will be a returning customer. A little expensive. About $40 but in my opinion totally worth it. You want good food you gotta pay. If not go to McDonald's. I wish this establishment great success and hope to visit very soon. read more

All for supporting local businesses, especially in Hercules! Glad to see them up and running again in a new spot. The interior is cute and the staff are super friendly. Filipino food and dessert always run pretty pricey. And I didn't expect any less from this local spot. We went twice because I wanted to try more of their desserts to give them another chance. The first visit we ordered: Beef Zlog $17 - delicious but really small portioned. Would recommend their food. Ube Tiramisu Latte $6 - way too sweet and tasted like milk without any expresso. With that size of a cup, I think it needs a minimum of 2-3 shots. Dubai Chocolate Cupcake (forgot the price). Dry cake and frosting was ok. Total with tax $29 Second Visit: Ube Tres Leches Cupcake - Super moist. Would recommend Ube Leche Flan Cupcake - Dry cake and only that little piece of flan on top. Cannoli - ok. Would recommend for anyone to support local. If we do come back it may just to try their special dish for the week, but as for dessert. We'll most likely pass. read more

We came here today and bought two chicken empanadas. Empanadas look good from the outside. The texture of the dough was excellent and very light. The problem was the chicken. It was super salty and had the texture of cheap canned chicken. There was nothing else in it. It would have been nice if they added some peas, olives and other ingredients that traditional empanadas have. The price is cheap for $4 but this is not an authentic empanada. Unfortunately we will not be having more empanadas from here. read more

Their service was top notch and their halo-halo was amazing! 10 outta 10 all day every day!

This Biscoff Latte is so good. One of the best coffee drinks I have tried in a minute. I just moved around here a few months ago but I always find myself stopping by to get a sweet treat or a drink.
