The only fun place to get a good cake in the area. So delicious and fresh. I always get my cakes…read morefrom here.

My review is for the vegan options, which are extremely limited. I understand they're not a vegan…read morebusiness, but if you do offer vegan options, I'd expect them to be made with the same level of care as the non-vegan items. I dropped by after dinner with my family. As they loaded up their tray, I walked around looking for vegan options. I found two items displayed near the register: Gluten-Free Vegan Coffee Cake Mini Loaf and the Gluten-Free Vegan Double Chocolate Chip Mini Loaf. Note: Their website mentions they also have a Vegan Chocolate Chip Muffin and a Vegan Blueberry Muffin, but I didn't see them during my visit. The Plain Baguette is also vegan. I tried both mini loafs, but unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with either. The texture was too sandy, the loaf was dry, and the flavor was lacking. Traditionally, a coffee cake is moist, buttery, and has warm spices like cinnamon with a crunchy streusel topping. This was lacking cinnamon and the topping didn't add texture. When I think of a double chocolate chip mini loaf, I imagine something rich, sweet, and chocolatey. This was not moist or rich, and the chocolate cake lacked depth. The only saving grace was the chocolate chips, but the actual cake texture wasn't enjoyable enough to finish it. As a vegan, I wouldn't shop here again. In fact, I'd rather have Abe's coffee cake or brownies from the grocery store than this bakery's vegan options. That said, I added two stars instead of one because the staff is friendly, parking is easy, the store is clean, and as I recall, their non-vegan options are tasty.

I always…read moreloved their pastries as a kid, and going to Marina Food was always made more exciting when my parents would let me pick out one to take home for breakfast the next morning (usually it ended up being the coconut cream pastry). Even as I grew older, I never grew out of combing through their catalogue of delightful egg tarts and sweet and savory buns. The experience I'm speaking about today pertains to their custom cake order. You will likely need to speak Cantonese or Mandarin Chinese for this. I ordered a 1/2 sheet cake for my party of approximately 20 people, and we had almost half of the cake left over to spare! To be fair, I did give a much more generous estimate (I mentioned that there would be around 20-30 people attending my party). Definitely would've downsized had I known everyone's appetite would be so small. The ladies working there will let you know which size is best for your party. The cake was gigantic, and made in my favorite flavor (their mango mousse) with my birthday message written atop it in red and white icing. I loved everything about it! They're generous with the pickup process, you can definitely arrive after the time you specified for picking up. Everything went very smoothly, my friends were surprised that the cake was so delicious and many had never even had a mango flavored cake to begin with either! The creamy rich mousse layers complement the spongey cake perfectly. It was $135 total, but if you get their regular fruit cream cake, it'll be cheaper than if you pick a specialty cake (their tiramisu, passionfruit, etc).

I wanted to come one last time before they officially close on Sunday, October 5th…read more Both the Cupertino and Dublin locations will be closing, but the manager told me that their Los Angeles locations will remain open. I've come occasionally from time to time to pick up an item or two, usually their sponge cake. People also really love their breads and their whole cakes. I came one last time because I realized I actually never tried their mooncakes. Honestly, it was just ok. The pastry part was a bit dry. They're shipped from Asia. Turns out I don't think I was missing out as far as their mooncakes. I will miss their sponge cakes though. Always soft and fresh. Not overly huge like a lot of other places. They also sell out really fast. Workers here have always been pleasant. Take out only. No seating area.

Stopped by today for a pork floss bun, cocktail bun, and the Soypresso Black Sesame Soy Milk…read more They're the only ones I know of in the area that sell Soypresso. Guess I'll have to go to Soypresso directly next time. I spoke with an employee today who told me that the owner was retiring and they're going to close permanently on Oct 6th. So unfortunate that no one is going to take over the business. Love everything I've ever had here. They've got a ton of mooncakes prepping for mid-Autumn festival. Will miss having this bakery around!

La Patisserie has been my family's go-to bakery for special occasions and everyday treats for…read moreyears. Their burnt almond cake runs through our veins and is truly a family favorite. When we've brought it to social gatherings in the past, it's also always a hit. Their other desserts, like their lemon bars, french napoleon, and turtle cheesecake, are also major hits. So when it was time for my wedding, I knew I had to get my cake from them! It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. They offer cake tasting boxes that include their most popular flavors. However, we had a specific taste profile in mind and asked if they could custom make the samples for us - they said yes without hesitation and didn't charge us extra! The samples were delicious and the pickup process was easy. We went with a ribbon cake (chocolate and vanilla) with fresh strawberries, whipped cream filling, and vanilla buttercream frosting. I also had a very specific vision for my wedding cake - I wanted a detailed three-tier cake with buttercream vintage flowers. We also ordered a plain sheet cake with the same flavors to ensure that we had enough slices for our guests. I worked with Fariba during the ordering process and they were great. I am truly still SHOCKED at how beautiful the cake was and how it matched the inspo photo perfectly. It was a showstopper and extremely delicious. See the photo for details! We got the cake topper from etsy :)

This time I tried the lemon tart, chocolate-covered strawberries, a macaron, and a lemon cake that was recommended to me. The lemon tart wasn't my favorite. It was a little too tart for my taste. I like lemon desserts, but this one had a very strong lemon punch and could have used a little more sweetness. The lemon cake, on the other hand, was really good. It had a refreshing lemon filling inside that wasn't overpowering, and I would definitely order that again. My niece loved the chocolate-covered strawberries, and my daughter enjoyed the macaron. The shop has a nice atmosphere, and it's a great place to stop when you're craving something sweet. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other pastries and desserts. Service was also excellent.
