50 Best Bakeries near Corona Del Mar

“Love that they have vegan cookies and other options for allergies that you don't often have a cookie shop. The cookies are very soft, almost under baked. They are also large enough to share. The service was fantastic and they were very kind.“

“This place was a great find! We loved it as soon as we walked in. The girls working are super sweet and very personable. They made great recommendations and didn’t disappoint. We went twice that morning when we found this cute cafe! We will definitely be back again.“

“So this doughnut shop is inside the grocery / general store in the plaza. They offer so many unique doughnuts like various candy bar and cereal flavors, as well as some more traditional flavors. The doughnuts were delicious and a great find. It's definitely worth a trip to try some unique and tasty doughnuts.“

“Love our first time here this morning. Better croissants than we had in France and we thought they were good! Outstanding quality and you can tell everything is made with 100% pride, care, compassion and love. Will definitely go back more than once! Goodbye diet!😆❤️❤️👌🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“I was lucky enough to get a free sample of a chocolate chip cookie at crumbl and it was delicious! The young man who helped me out at the register was very accommodating and friendly! Here to try other flavors and I'm going to ask if they have vegan versions of cookies as well!“

“Without a doubt… The Flaky Apple Pie Co is the best find ever!! I have ordered all of the different pies and each one is more delicious than the last !! The most wonderful pie was the last one I bought…. The most unbelievable FRESH PEACH Pie!!! Best I have ever had!!! Thank you Brooke and her team! We will be friends forever!❤️“

“Oh Em Gee!!!! This is thee cutest little place, the ordering system is super efficient, there were a ton of customers placing orders with no wait. The GIANORMOUS, warm cookies come out quickly and the boxes are so freaking cute. Definitely worth a stop, be sure to bring your sweet tooth ??“

“Best French pastries and bread anywhere! This place is amazing and the staff and owner are nothing less than exceptional.“

“This location is a bigger than the ones I've visited in the past.

The restaurant is clean and well decorated.

The staff is friendly and helpful.

There's lots of pastry options. Both savory and sweet. There are also premade sandwiches. Some are child and can be heated, and others that are served cold.
Then there are the cakes. You can order slices or entire cake. They have lots of drink options hot coffee/ tea and cold options too.

They have plenty of indoor seating as well as patio seating.

Everything is yummy.“

“Very delicious croffle ???????????????“

“Stopped by before a trip to the beach. The staff was very friendly and they had a decent selection of drink and fresh baked goods. To my surprise they had pho, which I shared with my wife. The broth was nothing memorable, and the rice noodles were excellent. A good addition to the herb plate would have been some mint and additional beansprouts.“

“Dey’s Donut and Croissant Shop is such a unique and refreshing spot! What makes it stand out is that it’s not just a bakery it feels almost like a gym café with an impressively large variety of food and drinks to choose from. Whether you’re craving something light after a workout or treating yourself to a fresh pastry, they’ve got you covered.

The drinks are definitely a highlight here. They use fresh fruit in their blends, and you can taste the quality in every sip. Smoothies, juices, and specialty drinks are made with care and never feel watered down or artificial.

On the food side, the donuts and croissants are perfectly balanced flaky, fresh, and flavorful. Pairing them with one of their fresh fruit drinks makes for a satisfying combo whether you’re stopping in for breakfast, a midday snack, or a post gym pick-me-up.

Overall, Dey’s offers the best of both worlds: a wide range of tasty, high quality options in a setting that feels energizing and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!“

“6/19/2025 = 5 Star = Congratulations ! This store reach the 5 star , I do recommend more , finally have chocolate bar . Will keep going back.

9/6/2023 = 4 Star = Good costumer service and price are good too , the only thing is when i visit no chocolate or Glace Donut Bar . I still recommend this store .“

“Poul’s Bakery took our breath away , we couldn’t believe the cake we have taken pictures from we have searched the internet images and sent it to her the custom cake we wanted , and not only she made the identical one ,the taste was so delicious actually finished the entire slice, it’s rare for me to eat the whole slice, as many cakes are made with to much sugar , it overwhelms to entire cakes other ingredients, this was so perfectly balanced ,and l asked for second , so did few guests , we as host wished we ordered the bigger size , we don’t like the buttercream topping due to its excessive sugar , we ordered her soexisl topping , while you others ask no buttercream but we want Poul’s Bakery special topping we heard so much about it , sorry l don’t remember what it was called . My bad ,this Poul’s baker we also find out been around for decades as she is the second owner but uses the same original recipes. She said it’s a company secret Lol, we respect that Try Poul’s Bakery , it won’t s sidelong you and ask for a sample of their fantastic cannolis . And on the spot in events she actually make the cake front of your guests . We never tried that but people are ranting about it and went at viral with millions of views and shared ,,we saw it in her website . Poul’s Bakery didn’t disappoint us , give them a try Best from Goldstein family“

“Delicious menu and excellent staff! I’ve visited this Rye Goods location a few times and can’t say anything negative. The coffee is fantastic—which is hard to find in this area. My favorite menu item is the “Seasonal Fruit Ricotta Toast,” always prepared to perfection. Definitely worth a visit!“

“We chose Penelope's Perfection to make something really special for my Mom's 100th Birthday party. The cake was spectacular. Everything & more we could have asked for. Highly recommended!“

“I have eaten here on multiple occasions and it is by far the best restaurant of its kind anywhere nearby. Everything Ive tried has been top quality and delicious. Even the smell is amazing upon walking in. The owner is a wonderful person and takes true pride in everything he puts out. Highly recommend.“

“Highly recommended!! Best bakery for delicious and beautiful birthday cakes!! We’ve ordered their durian and strawberry cakes under different occasions, and have never been disappointed. The service is also very friendly . Can’t wait to try their other cakes!“

“Love these cookies“

“The baked goods here are so delicious and the woman behind the treats was so lovely herself! I found this place after an appointment in the area, got four different macarons and one of the honey cakes. Wow. Insane, everything. The strawberry raspberry and the Dubai flavor macarons were far and away my favorite, but everything was insane. The honey cake was amazing too, very different from anything I’ve had yet but loved it. Will be back again.“

“We loved this place so much we already have made plans to go back. The food was delicious and portion size is great. Friendly crew, helpful and great service. You can also purchase frozen pies to take home which we will be doing“

“They were very responsive to emails. I first filled out web inquiry and got a reply on the same day. They were booked for tasting appointment very fast so make sure you contact them early as they only have appointments available during the week Tuesday, Thursday and Fridays between 1pm and 6pm. Saturdays from 9am-4pm. The tasting appointment was an hour long and it's FREE!!! Some other places I looked at will charge you for tasting and even though the tasting charge might be deducted from final order, it made me feel much better when there was no cost to start with as wedding was already expensive. The place was a little bit hard to find since it was office-like looking from outside and I thought it was bakery-like. They have parking lot. My husband and I tried so many different favors of cake and they were so delicious. We had a hard time deciding which ones to get because we had more than three favorite. During the appointment, they also showed you what style of cake they offered and its pricing. We went with the basic so there was no add-on cost, but they can custom-make your order if you show them pictures of what you want with additional cost (and trust me the price is fair). We ended up ordering a 3-tier ice in white buttercream cake with 12" white with mango, 9" almond with cappuccino & chocolate mousse, and 6" mocha chip with rosy mauve ribbon around tiers for 100 guests for my wedding. They emailed us a week before the wedding to confirm there was no changes and the order was correct. The cake was delivered on time and was decorated with fresh flowers my florist provided on site by the delivery staff. (If you have cake topper, you can either drop it off to the shop or have it installed on site by delivery staff. Either way, you need to let them know in advance so they can make sure your cake is structurally stable for the cake topper weight.) My wedding cake looked pretty and it tasted good. I received lots of compliment from the guests. On the side note, they would charge you more if you use American Express credit card. And you only need to pay deposit on the site but they don't have online system for you to pay the remaining online. Since we didn't have cake topper to drop off and did not want to make another trip just to pay the balance, we paid it in full the same day of tasting. This would be two suggestions for improvement, but they still deserve a 5-star for their service, the quality (taste/look), and the friendly price. Ohh and did I mention that you do receive a complimentary one year anniversary cake? That's for sure a big PLUS since my husband and I were too busy to have our own wedding cake at our wedding. We are very looking forward to our one year anniversary! All you need to do is to contact them 3 weeks prior to your one year anniversary to place the order. Give them the date of your wedding and the name the order is under and they will pull up your file and place the order. Yup it's 3 weeks, not 2 weeks. They are definitely getting busier and that's how good they are! If you are still looking for wedding cake or cake for any event, this is where I would recommend.“

“Anytime I visit Southern California, I always take time out to go here. The staff were friendly and the chocolate banana is amazing, and so is the hippo cookie. The merch is a good price, I would recommend this dessert/bakery shop to my friends and anyone who hasn't been there yet. Mouse pads are $7 and a coaster is $5.“

“This review is only on the bread as it was a X’mas gift. At first I didn’t understand how on earth a loaf of bread can cost $18 and being packaged as a gift?Well, I followed the instruction on best way to enjoy it. I finished 1/2 loaf in December and froze the other 1/2.Now it’s January, I took out the other 1/2 and let it defrost on its own over the counter, then sliced a thick slice, gently toasted and enjoyed it daily. Now, I’m eating the last piece. ?This is by far the BEST bread I have ever had!!! It’s unbelievable how well it freezes and it tastes as good as fresh! It is worth every dollar of it. I would get more except there is only one location and it very far. I will put it on my wishlist to Santa.?‍?“

“Tried Uncle Tetsu’s cheesecake and it absolutely lives up to the hype! Light, fluffy, and perfectly balanced — not overly sweet, which lets the rich cheese flavor shine through. It melts in your mouth and feels more like a cloud than a cake. A must-try for anyone who loves Japanese-style desserts.“

“Omg! Their breakfast burrito is amazing. Came to kaiser for a doc app and was looking for donuts. Well, I now found my new breakfast burrito place. First bite melted in my mouth. The eggs are fluffy and have a great flavor. The tortilla is soft. Im not one for cheese on my food. But the cheese they use is also soft and melts right into the burrito. The salsa is a must to add onto before a bit. My new spot when I’m in the area 😍“

“We have been loyal customers of Krista & Monster Muffins for years! She rotates the selection every month & I look forward to see what is new. There are some that are available all the time, Blueberry (my hubby’s favorite), the Cinnamon Roll muffin (my favorite) and delicious cookies too!!!“

“I recently ordered the catering size of 25 Strawberry Croissants from Cream Pan in Fountain Valley, and I couldn't be more pleased! I called the day before to preorder, and both the staff over the phone and in-person were incredibly hospitable and kind. The service was quick and efficient, making the whole process super smooth.

The Strawberry Croissants were absolutely delicious, as always. You can always count on Cream Pan for top-notch baked goods! The location also has easy parking, which is a big plus. Highly recommend this spot for their excellent customer service, attention to detail, and consistently delicious treats. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Great service 👏 they actually answered the questions I had ! especially on the ice coffee horchata
They make their horchata by scratch they don't add no powder horchata, which I was very satisfied
The cookies are huge and delicious. My wife loves cookies, so she was very happy that I brought her here at this cookie spot 😋 and the banana pudding. It's great too ! The ice coffee horchata was 💯 really, really good they add cinnamon powder on top for free because there's other places that charge extra fee for some cinnamon powder 👍 if you're craving something delicious like cookies and ice coffee horchata. This is the spot!“

“Exquisite bread seriously delicious, my go-to bakery bread always tastes freshly made and warm. They have a great variety/selection of different types of bread and desserts. Saw a review saying that it had “too much sugar” and honestly what did you expect it’s a pastry it isn’t going to taste spicy or overly salty. Anyways this place is great I recommend it every time!“

“We stopped by for coffee and pastries a couple of days ago. I had previously picked up some bread on my way over to a breakfast invitation and liked it a lot. This time was no different. The coffee was top notch and pastries were wonderful. More importantly I was very impressed by the two ladies who took care of us. They were kind and very helpful, and when there was a mixup with our order they offered to remedy it very generously and made the whole experience a pleasure. Will definitely go back and recommend to anyone who's looking for great coffee, artisan bread and a wonderful atmosphere to work or hang out at.“

“Awesome place to eat some good baked goods. drink some iced drinks and read comics.“

“Cream Pan Bakery in Tustin offers an impressive selection of fresh bakery items and light meals. Their menu includes a range of sandwiches such as katsu, along with sushi rolls and other Japanese-inspired dishes. Service is consistently quick, prices are reasonable, and the outdoor patio adds to the relaxed atmosphere. Ample parking makes it convenient, though weekend lines can be quite long — a testament to their popularity.“

“We grabbed a cinnamon roll straight from the oven at Balboa Island Baking Company, and it was everything you’d hope for, pillowy soft, warm, and delicious. The icing leans on the sweeter side, but it totally hits the spot if you’ve got a sweet tooth. Cozy little bakery worth stopping by!“

“They gave me a slice of this cake (the presumé one) and it is very delicious tres leches chocolate flan and chesse kaque. Very rich

They gave me a slice of this cake (el presumido) and it is very good
with three milk chocolate flan and cheese kaque. Very good“

“this is one of the best bakery in orange county. the bread, bolillos, tamales, and tacos are a must!!!“

“Thank you for designing my Mom’s beautiful cake for her 100th birthday. It was delicious and the cookies were a hit! Especially the snickerdoodles!“

“I recently visited a bakery and tried their croissants and brownies. Both were incredibly moist and flavorful. The croissants had a perfect flaky texture, and the brownies were rich and decadent. Highly recommend this place“

“This is my go-to spot on the way to work! The staff are always polite, friendly, and greet you with a smile. Great selection of drinks and cakes, and everything is consistently fresh and delicious. Definitely one of my favorite places to stop by for a quick treat or coffee.“

“I really like to get my latte from this shop. Very polite and smiley staff. Thanks HB Bagels & Cafe for my morning caffeine!“

“This my second time here, and definitely easy going and great service for sure. Easy parking and small menu. The hole in the wall was cute and clean fills with baked goods upon walking in. So I heard that they’re known for the Pate Chaud and baguettes, and they do yummy. I ordered a pate chaud, a sandwich and a sweet treat. Pate Chaud has a great but small portion well mixed meat filling, the crusty pastry was mixed for me, top part was crusty and smell fantastic but as you voted into it, it become tough and abit chewy for me. The bánh mì, for me didn’t do much - just nothing special. The baguette was not hot nor crisp as you bite in it, it was just room temperature. The size is abit smaller then other place with decent price for it. The opera cake was abit disappointed for me, I love love this cake and it was just below average for me, abit sweeter then I would like, the bottom of the cake sticked to the paper and the cake itself was just fell like cake mixed from the box. Just nothing special. The displaced cakes look great so will come back to get them to give a taste another time.“

“I had the Texas Hot Polish Sausage. The bread was soft, there was a lot of cheese, and it was HOT. Lots of Jalapeno. The sausage and cheese was okay. The apple also had great bread, but the filling was just canned pie filling, nothing special. Good coffee.“

“we bought several desserts for Christmas parties for all of our gluten free, vegan abd soy free family members. Everything Giselle made was so delicious and beautiful!!!! I highly recommend and congrats her abd her husband on their wonderful bakery and services to our community. thank you!“

“I ordered two cream pans and let me say it doesn't disappoint. So if you love creamy custard filling folded into buttery bread that is made with TLC, then Hamada-Ya Bakery is the place to go. Now let's say you eat one and save the other for the next day, I suggest refrigerating it. Then when you want to eat it take it out of the fridge and let it sit until it's room temperature. Your taste buds are going to be very happy you did. ?“

“My granddaughter said it was fantastic! She got 6 different flavors and wow she stated they all was delicious....“

“Delicious variety of cookies and so many milks to choose from. pure heaven“

“The best bread probably in orange county maybe even so cal. Delicious. Man could definitely live on bread alone from here. They make many types, each with passion and care to make them the finest. Besides being available in the finest restaurants arround you can also get it at some farmers markets and a few specialty shops.“

“These are the best Balboa Bars on the island. They use premium chocolate that’s a mix of milk and dark chocolate, and they have premium ice cream. The result is that these are a lot better than the Balboa bars at Dad’s Original and the Original Frozen Banana Stand. We have tried those other places many times and they’re also very good. But if you’re ready to graduate, walk a few steps down to Too Sweet - you won’t regret it.“
