First, a fair warning to visitors - if you do not know Spanish you will likely feel a bit lost and out of place. A lot of the signage was in Spanish and so was the language people spoke. I know enough Spanish to speak to a 4 year old, so I was way out of my league! I noticed upon arrival that they have some baked good, grocery goods, and apparently hot dishes given there were a few tables where people were actively eating. I just kind of strolled around for a minute looking lost. There is no one readily available to help people like me with the deer-in-headlights look. I had hoped to try an empanadas but it seemed intimidating so I strolled over to the shelves where there were various breads, pastries and cookies. I was still a bit lost because I first saw people with trays and grabbing breads but I thought they might be employees. But after wandering in another circle I noticed a lady grabbing a tray and tongs. I then saw the little sign that said to use the trays and tongs for the baked goods. I then followed the lady and managed to grab a few items. I had hoped for some cupcakes or donuts but saw neither. I did however get a cheese danish, a couple of cookies and a couple of breads. The items I got were pretty good and the bread was fairly soft. I certainly wasn't disappointed in any of the items I grabbed, I only wished there were a few other sweet items and a better system to better understand how best to navigate the store. But all things considered, the baked goods were good enough that I may very well be back to sample other items. read more

I go about once a week to for apple turnovers. I freeze/warm as needed at home. The place is clean and the staff is friendly. There is a nice variety of items so you should be able to find something you like. read more

Great Pastries; however, extremely slow food service. If you are planning on getting food at this location, don't come hungry and expect to​ be waiting for the long haul. I have tried them several times to see if the experience would change​, it did not. The average wait time can be around 40 minutes. My personal final straw was a 45 minute wait time for the breakfast meal and had to cancel instead. ​Did not get an apology or anything, they just quickly gave me my money back and I was on my way. It is a shame, but I​ do not plan on returning to this location as there are plenty of other options. read more

Awful! Took 2 different people and even a phone call from their staff to put a cake order together. After 32 minutes my order was placed Their showcase was empty and they had no pictures for me to choose from. Showed them a picture from their own website and again no luck. I haven't picked up the cake, will see it they will get it right! Their cakes are amazing but their customer service is definitely not helpful. read more

Ordered this cake a year ago for a friend's birthday and it was absolutely delicious. The fruits were fresh and the cake was nice and moist. I did like that you could choose to have it on the drier side or moist. I ordered the cake 1 week in advance and while I was there, I asked how far in advance I would need to place an order for future orders and was told at least 1 day in advance which I found very convenient. The staff were very nice. I will definitely be ordering from them again. read more

Very clean white linoleum floor is the first thing that grabbed my attention. Not sure if it's new flooring or what - but it's very white. And the place is super well organized and it smells good, as most bakeries do. The point-of-sale sits about 50 feet inside the door and to the left so a whole lotta floor is what you see upon entry. I had an appointment next door at Geico and decided to stop in since this place has been on to-do for a minute. Stephanie helped me and was very pleasant. I wanted tamales and was kinda disappointed that they had no pork. So, I got two chicken to go and was on my way. They're pretty tasty. About 4" long; $2 each. The masa tastes scratch-made and they're cooked in a banana leaf which adds further to the authenticity/flavor. The chicken inside is shredded and seasoned well. My only gripe is a quarter on each end was meatless. The chicken only occupied the middle 50%...and it's positioned in strands vertically along the length making it pop out the moment a fork touches it. A chopped or finely chopped filling might make more sense. I personally prefer my tamale filling *inside* the masa, not as a side. Minor inconvenience for an otherwise tasty little tamale though. Looking forward to trying the tortas on my next visit. Cute li'l food find. read more

Wonderfully kind folks offering delicious tortas, empanadas and tres leches cake. Also offers some grocery items.

Fantastic! So glad I stopped by here on my way home. The space inside is extremely spaced out and clean. I was craving a sandwich or something if the like, and this place had great reviews for tortas, so in I went! I got the chicken torta, a tiramisu, and tres leches--all to go. The chicken torta was really good! One thing to note though, they make their tortas ahead of time, I'm assuming in the beginning of the day. There were several prepared tortas ready to just be put in the panini press to give it that perfect grill and crunch. I was happy to get it the way it was prepared, but if you plan to customize yours, I would call ahead to make sure they offer that option. I think they do this for efficiency, either way it didn't bother me and I was happy having a quick stop instead of waiting as I was ready to get home to devour my food ASAP. The tiramisu and tres leches were also pretty good and very generous slices of each. The tiramisu has very bold flavors, definitely worth a try! The tres leches was very creamy and milky. They have many different desserts, so I plan to try a different one the next time I'm there! read more

Veracruzana Bakery - Great job!! - Bakeries Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

This place is AMAZING!!! The staff is bilingual, which helped me a lot because I only know a little bit of Spanish. The location is easy to find and there is plenty of parking. Inside of the establishment, there are drinks, pastries, and snacks. The building itself is also pretty big, so nobody is on top of each other. There is plenty of space for everyone. I unintentionally waited last minute to order a ton of food (enough for 15) for an International Galantines event I was invited to attend. Not only was I impressed by the fact that they said yes to my order, but it was done on time, stayed hot throughout the 45 min drive, and tasted soooo delicious !!!! I ordered 12 chicken, and 12 cheese tamales; and 24 empanadas. My food was the first to disappear and the ladies kept mentioning how good it was! So grateful to have authentic food nearby. I will definitely be back! read more

A huge thank you to the crew at Veracruzana Bakery! The cake was a 10/10! Custom made on 12/30 with only a four day notice! There was a little misunderstanding with the order, but the customer service was outstanding, as the young lady who took the order initially, explained to the baker exactly what I wanted, and boy oh boy did they deliver! The colors were exactly as the photo I had provided! The fruits on top were colorful and plentiful, and the blue banner with happy birthday written on it was perfect. So not only was the cake a Wow, moist, and delicious, but the attention to detail was very impressive, and our guests are still asking about the cake! read more

Sabor Casero Bakery is a small Mexican bakery offering cookies, pastries, custom cakes, and hot tamales (pork and chicken). This is their second location, with their original location in Temple Hills. I tried their chicken tamale and a slice of their tres leches cake, topped with various fruits. The chicken tamale was piping hot, wrapped tightly in aluminum foil, with the masa filled generously with shredded chicken - this was pretty tasty. The tres leches cake? SUPER DELICIOUS!!! Probably one of the best tres leches I've had - this generous slice was wet and moist, delicious cream, and topped with a generous amount of glazed fruit slices (strawberries, peaches, kiwi, and cherries) - YUM! Staff are friendly, and there are some tables to enjoy your treats. Definitely check this little gem out! +tres leches cake (with fruit) :D +pork and chicken tamales offered +friendly staff +plenty of parking read more

The tres leche wasn't the best. Tasted like nothing which disappointed me because they looked so good. I gave this place a try because it's the only one in this area that I've found so far. Highly disappointed read more

Very clean! Everyone is friendly and they offer food as well as baked goods. The menu is not very big for food items but that's not a bad thing. They focus on a few things that they do well and that's the key to success! read more

Please don't sleep on this place. Authentic Latin cuisine, beautiful cakes for all occasions and delicious desserts!

Not exactly sure why this establishment never registered on my Yelp radar, but I'm elated that has been corrected. Very clean & well organized bakery, w/a few ailes of convenient store like goodies. As another Yelp reviewer mentioned, I came for the tamales. The dessert items were tempting, but I decided to save those for another day. Friendly employee @ the counter advised only chicken tamales were available, so I asked for one. What was I thinking? I should have gotten @ least two. These little joys, were flavorful, creamy, melt in your mouth good! I also purchased a chicken torta. I ate 1/2 of it before making it to the MVA office (a short distance). I'll have to inquire about the ingredients, but I tell you, they all worked together, great balance of flavors! In addition, the sandwich was panini pressed, so the bread had a perfect slight crunch, while the inside remained warm. If you like tamales &/or tortas, this is your place! read more

Got my wedding cake from here. Hands-down fantastic. The staff was very friendly, and when we called ahead to talk about wedding cakes they had a bunch of stuff to try, and were very flexible with our needs. For the record, we got a strawberry tres leches cake, with chocolate drizzled over the top. Everyone loved it- it tasted a thousand times better than a buttercream cake, and wasn't crazy expensive, either. read more

Slow! Terrible customer services! The cake was too dry!!The quality is getting worse and worse! Won't recommend anyone to go there anymore!

This place is so not expected in Waldorf, but so so good!! The tacos are great and staff helpful since they don't cater to Americans. All their menu is in Spanish so you hope you make the right choice. They will tell you what it says in American at least. they have great cakes as well, but we go for the tacos! read more

I stopped by on a road trip to pick up a Très lèche cake after reading reviews. I like what although I have had better in New York. Presentation was great though. Cake is $45 for half a sheet. They have different flavors and it seems a very popular spot. Nice service too. I presented the Tres Lèche to the family I was visiting in MD and the loved it! read more

After reading the positive reviews on Yelp, I decided to stop in the store to satisfy my sugar cravings. The store is clean and the staff are very friendly. The pastries are fresh, moist, and delicious. I have eaten tres leche from Panama, Dominican Republic, and Southern Florida. The tres leche at this store was the best I have ever tasted. The pound cake with the pink frosting was amazingly good. If you want to satisfy your cravings for something sweet and unique, stop by and grab a piece. You will not be disappointed. read more

I had been looking around for a tres leches cake for my boyfriends 24th birthday party and came across Sabor Casero Bakery. I am so glad I went!! The cake was delicious and all of the guests enjoyed it! They are located right on route 5 in Waldorf just before Rita's on the same side. I walked in and no other customers were there but the store is big and the pastries and cakes looked beautiful!! The lady behind the counter was extremely nice and came out from behind the counter to help me pick the best cake. The cake that I purchased had white icing with half of the cake covered in fruits with a coconut side crumbing. I got the largest cake they had and it was $40 and it served about 25 people with a slice or 2 left (they have 2 more smaller sizes for about $20-25(?) and $30). I didn't get to take a picture of the cake because I was so busy hosting the party but just take my word for it and go visit this place! They have tres leches cakes with chocolate side crumbings, fruits covered all over the top, cakes without coconut shavings on the side, a strawberry glazed one and so much more) I'm not a cake person (unless it's ice cream cake) but I will definitely go back to this place for more! read more

We grew up in Tucson, so this place is like a little slice of home. The flan is good and the servings are huge. They have bottled Cokes with cane sugar, not high-fructose corn syrup. And while the tamales were just okay (the maza wasn't to my taste, is all), the tortas are amazing and perfectly toasted. We will definitely be back- this is at the top of our list for lunch places in the Waldorf area. read more

Amazing and wonderfully authentic. Took me back to the panderia I used to go to in Cuernavaca.

Stopped by to check this place out last week. They had some pork tamales special. Bought three for $2 each. Ate them all so quickly in the car because they were so hot, delicious and seemed so authentic. They were made with a lot of beautifully lean, tender shredded pork in a perfectly seasoned chili paste wrapped in a piece of banana leaf then in foil prior to being steamed to. Perfection. They were so good that I told my son to go back into the store and asked for 5 more for our refrigerator. They were still great the next week for lunch at work with or without added salsa. They have now added flan to their pastry case. Now I'm there once a week almost for a few Slices of these perfectly baked caramel egg custard. read more

We got our wedding cake from here and it was perfect! It was beautiful, we asked for a beach themed cake and they got us a cake with seashells and on the top there was 2 starfish with a tux and dress on them. The flavor was out of this world! We got a mix between tres leches and dry. It was so good everyone at the wedding was asking where we got it from. I can't wait to eat our anniversary cake in one year! Great prices and great service! I highly recommend this place for event cakes! read more
