50 Best Bakeries near Cudahy

“Coffee is always freshly brewed, Pastries are always baked and this Place even makes delicious, moist tamales. Plus the staff is friendly to all their customers.“

“While Porto’s is well-known, the Downey location feels a little less crowded than others. The guava cheese pastry is always a winner—flaky, buttery, and sweet. I tried their Cuban sandwich for lunch, and it was huge and satisfying. The lines move quickly thanks to the efficient staff. Definitely worth the drive for affordable, delicious baked goods“

“You’ll never know it’s vegan, and that’s the best part. These desserts are out of this world delicious.“

“They have very good pastries, bánh my and moon cake“

“My first Crème Brûlée doughnut was in Seoul Dunkin. I was not sure I'd ever taste one in US. Visiting from Chicago, I had to come here. I was happy to taste my fav doughnut again.
Small Korean bakery, delicious bakery items. I ordered classic and matcha Crème Brûlée. Wow.
Located inside Rodeo plaza!
Cute places to sit.“

I Hate Cake—But This One Changed My Mind

I’ve spent years dodging birthday slices, declining dessert menus, and side-eyeing frosting like it owed me money. Not even as a kid did I like cake. Cake and I? Not friends. Everything i got to try was great, but then came this ube and coconut cake and OMG!!!!

It didn’t just taste good—it rewrote my dessert beliefs. Moist without being mushy, sweet without the sugar assault, and layered like a symphony. The texture? A velvet rebellion. The flavor? A sermon in indulgence. I didn’t just eat it—Im forever converted. Thank you!!“

“These cookies are to die for every time. So delicious !!!🤤“

“Was almost lost when trying to find the outlet since it's located in a plaza that might not be visible if you're by the road side. Worry not about parking at the plaza since they apparently validated parking (yep! plus point for sure).

The gorgeously designed outlet only served grab and go since there's no seating on the spot. There were some outdoor benches at the center of the plaza though if you just couldn't wait to enjoy the goodies.

They offered bunch of sweets from Canele, Madeleine, Financier, Cookies, Cheesecake, and more; all of which did come in multiple flavors. So yeah, be prepared to be indecisive in front of the showcase. They were super helpful though in assisting you making your choices by recommending the favorite ones. It was nice that the price was decent enough for LA standard, so you could definitely opt for more than one or a couple.

For my initial visit, I started with the Ube Financier, which was kept in the chiller, maybe due to the cream on top. It came in spongy yet not too airy texture with luscious ube cream topping. It was decent, but not really my top choice. My second was their Earl Grey Milk Chocolate Tigre, which was basically buttery cake kinda similar to financier IMO, with milk chocolate ganache at the center. I definitely loved this more than the financier, especially the combo of earl grey and milk chocolate which to my surprise was awesome and helped balancing the taste to be not overly sweet. Another one I tried was their thick salted chocolate chip cookies, which decadently had crispy edge though I wish being more gooey inside as it's tad dry. Nonetheless, flavor wise I felt like classic chocolate chip with a sprinkle of sea salt indeed never failed. The creme de la creme, however, was certainly their canele which I was beyond thrilled to finally find in LA. I had my favorite one in London which I thought unbeatable, and it's impressive that LA now had something comparable to satisfy the craving without having to fly over 5K miles away. It flawlessly had that crispy coating, moist center, and just the right sweetness level. I surely made the right choice going with matcha as Brown Bag definitely elevated the overall taste with this matcha flavor and that matcha cream top. It was no brainer that their canele is NEVER TO BE MISSED if you ever paid Brown Bag a visit.“

“recommended to me — I wasn’t disappointed. There was a bit of a line when I arrived, but it moved quickly and the staff were helpful, even with all the hustle. The ordering process was super easy, and the space felt clean and welcoming.

The cookies themselves? Genuinely excellent. Big, warm, and packed with flavour — definitely lived up to the hype. I tried a couple of the weekly specials and would’ve gone back again if I’d had more time in Downey.

Nice stop if you’re travelling and want something sweet (or very American!). Great location too — easy to find and plenty of parking nearby, but we walked as hoteled in the local area“

“I love this place I would travel so far just to try the cookies every week as they change flavors. It’s so exciting you have to try this place. Specially, in Inglewood the energy is so cool.“

“HOLEY CRAP these are incredible donuts. Who knew the Hawaiian superfood taro could be so delicious? I will most definitely be coming back here for more, even their basic donut offering, the “hot single” is to die for. All donuts are fresh made to order, highly recommend eating them hot. The flavors are orgasmic.“

“I visited Baking with Ish on the day I was getting ready to fly out of LAX. I had been getting instagram recommendations on my feed for a few months (even though I don’t live in CA), and I’m glad I decided to put this place on my list to check out before I left. I got the ube sesame bun and the cheese and ube pie and both of them were fantastic. I wish I lived closer so I could come back and try more items, to be honest everything on display looked unreal. Wishing the best for Ish and team, you’re making some really amazing stuff.“

“Really amazing and very good food. I was a table of one and was able to sit down within 15 minutes compared to usual hour long wait.

I got the HK style french toast, very sweet and more of a dessert but it was amazing nonetheless. Second item i got was the cold sesame noodle (no chicken) and i’ve never had this amazing dish before and it was life changingly good.

Funny story but they threw away my food while i was in the bathroom for two minutes but they apologized and gave me a free meal to go and pastry. I didn’t care that much but happy they fixed an error!

Will come back again def“

“Crumbl Cookies is dessert happiness in a pink box.

The weekly rotating flavors keep things exciting, but even their classic chocolate chip is everything you want in a cookie—gooey center, crispy edges, and just the right amount of chocolate.

The shop is clean and bright, and the staff is always friendly and quick.

You can’t help but smile walking out with that iconic pink box.

Perfect for a sweet pick‑me‑up or sharing (if you’re generous enough to share!).“

“Omelete sandwich and beet salad were delicious. Berry lemonade was refreshing. Pastries are divine.“

“I have been to the 2 Little Tokyo locations and this one is definitely the winner! there’s a huge variety of pastries and things to eat for a quick bite (you might probably have to eat it standing or elsewhere during the weekends since it gets pretty packed and there’s just 3 tables!) but the steamed buns were good!, the matcha mochi wasn’t too sweet so it was perfect, the almond croissant was fine but their specialty is definitely on other pastries! will definitely come back again to try more stuff.“

“This is the absolute go to bakery. While it was the sign that says ‘One of LA’s Top Cookie Destinations’ that brought me in, it was the warm welcoming service and the incredible quality and care that goes into every single item that keeps us coming back. The breads are above and beyond anything I’ve experienced. The sour dough and garlic and olive oil loafs are our family favorites. We can’t not have a loaf going in the house at all times. Highest recommendation!“

“amazing mochi!!! don't forget to check out their seasonal flavor“

“I’ve been coming to this location for years, and it never disappoints! My mom, who never likes sweets, actually approves of their cakes—and that’s saying a lot. Both the vanilla and chocolate flavors are moist, delicious, and full of flavor—not dry at all.

The fresh fruit topping is another standout—you can choose more than one! My mom’s favorite combo is peach and strawberry. We usually go with the almond sides and ask for less filling, which they’re happy to accommodate.

These cakes are perfect for any occasion—or even just when you’re craving a good slice of cake. Speaking of which, I just found out they now sell cake by the slice (love this!), and they’ve also added fruit drinks and milk tea to their menu!

My most recent order was a cake for 25 people for only $55—absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!“

“She did such an AMAZING job on my besties birthday cake. It tasted so delicious I was surprised how good it tasted for gluten and dairy free!! This woman is such a sweet girl and catered to some changed and was quick to respond to my inquiries. I would HIGHLY recommend!“

“Shoutout to the Rittenhouse location. We are at Chop with our 4 year old son who just had surgery. I figured after the day we had let’s have some cookies. I placed an order from Levain on door dash. My wife after the long day she had put in the wrong address on the door dash order and the driver called screaming at me and wouldn’t come 1.3 miles to bring them even after explaining the circumstances. Door dash refunded my whole order without me even asking and I called Levain and they went above and beyond. They gave us cookies on the house and even threw in an extra chocolate chip and delivered them to CHOP. Not only are the cookies fabulous the hospitality is second to none. I am a lifelong customer to this location and want to thank everyone at the Rittenhouse location especially Mat who went above and beyond. Thanks again!“

“Open one in las Vegas. Before San Diego.“

“Everything is good. Loved the coffee“

“If this is not the best banh mi in all of Sgv and Oc, I don’t know of any place that can beat them. All cash by the way so come prepared. Their dac biet is the perfect sandwich and their daikon and carrots are light and bouncy with fresh jalapeno with the right amount of pate and butter. They have it down to perfection, nothing less. Had an open house and served it for homebuyers and they were blown away! Highly recommend! Cafe sua da is gold too, loved the shaved ice in the coffee and not too sweet. The ladies in the back are super sweet and you can buy the baguettes and freeze them, then 350 f for 6 mins in toaster or airfryer. Get the egg rolls, and pa te so is good too. My clients loved their vegetarian banh mi too!

Vegetarian options: Just get he vegetarian banh mi! Only vegetarian thing to get or just plain baguettes! It will be worth it!“

“I absolutely love your Pastries, the Vanilla Oat Milk was a recommendation from one of the workers and it was a hit!“

“Been going there for years, the best bakery in SoCal. Every time I bring a cake or cookies to a gathering, everyone always asks where I got them from!“

“Came here for Brioche with ricotta, honey, and pistachio. Got two croissants which were Strawberry & cream and Bacon & onion for togo. For Brioche I requested for honey on the side because I prefer to adjust the sweetness by myself and it was perfectly scrumptious. Millions out of ten! Brioche itself was soft, buttery, and tasty so it complimented very well with ricotta and honey plus a bit crunchy from pistachio. Oh one bite and I was blown away. My taste buds were dancing happily. Let’s talk about croissants. Normally, I tend to like savory croissants more than sweet croissants. However, after I tried both of them, strawberry and cream is the winner. I really like the filling. I’m not sure if it’s mascarpone or something else that went really well with strawberry jam. It’s so freaking good! Bacon and onion croissant was not bad at all but as I stated earlier, strawberry & cream is the winner for me.“

“My experience was at their event food truck. I had their regular churros and it was absolutely delicious! So fresh with the perfect crunch! And, the customer service was phenomenal! I saw others ordering different items and honestly, everything looked so good. Will definitely have to visit their storefront.“

“The best bread ever. I always get the filled ones they sell at the counter. $4.50 for 4 large rolls. They vary the fillings from strawberry, cream cheese, nutella, guava. All of them are excellent. This is my go-to place when I want to treat myself.“

“Yummy! You won’t be disappointed …check them out for your next food event. Pizza 🍕 Rules!“

“My family and I have been eating birthday cakes from the Phoenix Bakery since I can remember. My personal favorite is the strawberry cake of course. I stopped by today and got this, can't remember the name though. So get here ASAP and get yourself some!. Highly recommended!.“

“They BEST Bread around Been coming since I was a little girl 55 yrs and thank you for always giving me a calendar“

“Baked goods are worth the journey. Po Tarts are a great value for cost and taste.
No place to eat in but great for picking up and enjoying at home. If you get any tart, make sure you sneak one in after the purchase even if it’s in your car as it is really good.“

“I attended a kids' birthday party and they had the most delicious cake ever. It was chocolate with a fresh strawberry center. The chocolate cake was so moist. The icing was light and delicate. This cake was talked about with everyone. We kept saying, "it's not too sweet," which is the best compliment you can say for a cake. I wasn't the one that purchased the cake but I definitely will now after this.“

“BEST wagashi in the West Coast indeed!

I waited to try the other wagashi place we found in the Sacramento area before reviewing this place and therefore we conclude, they have the best mochis!

Staff is super friendly and kind 😭 would really love to go here again if ever we are down in SoCal!“

“Senorita breads seem smaller than before, but still worth the drive. Was a little disappointed that they only had a 4pack of Ensemada breads for sale 10bucks. I was only looking to buy one for the ride back home. So I added another 5 Senortias to my 30 pack order. Prices have increased over the past year... again still worthy of the drive. I'm sure the staff at Longden Elementary will love them. 3 left for me, the rest will go to school.“

“Popular Chinatown pastry spot for traditional baked goods and steamed dimsum to go. Not a big menu, but all the usual favorites are here. Prices are great and they taste excellent. Be patient as there's always a line of locals so you know you're getting the good stuff. Parking on street.“

“This place came to the rescue!!! The wedding cake I had made fell over on the long drive. It was a disaster!! Other bakeries near the wedding venue were already closed and others needed at least 48 hour notice… the wedding was happening NOW. I called Sonora Bakery in my final desperate attempt, explained the situation, sent them a picture of the cake and within minutes, they got to work. The cake was delicious and the wedding was saved. Thank you Sonora Bakery…. You have a customer for life!“

“the product is not one to pass up and the owner is a fantastic person.“

“this place is awesome! love the staff super cool & friendly. The BEST croissants & baguettes! I love their loaf of bread too but it takes me 4ever to finish and its gets really hard, but thats the life of a single person 🥲. Get there early bc the lines is so long and they'll be no seating available.“

“Best bakery...love their pastries.“

“They made me the perfect cake I love my taste and quality of cake. Our family has been fans for years. Highly recommended“

“The mini conchas are my favourite, I don't like conchas unless they're from this bakery. The polvorones, cinnamon raisin rolls, pink jelly coconut roll, and the mini cookies with sprinkles are my favourites here. The prices have been raised for the filled breads but it's better compared to other places. The place looks like it's kept clean and well maintained. The only bad thing about coming here are the homeless people asking for money all the time. + There's very limited parking sometimes it'll be empty and the next second it'll be full. The staff are super friendly and fast.“

“Delicious vegan pan dulce! Super nice people too. I highly recommend Soy Concha!“

“Tartine Silver Lake is a gem! The space is open and inviting, with a great neighborhood vibe. I grabbed a morning pastry and a coffee for pickup, and everything was ready fast and tasted incredible. The croissant was buttery and flaky—definitely one of the best in LA. The coffee was rich and smooth. Staff were friendly and upbeat, even with a line forming. Perfect spot to grab something quick or hang out for a bit. Can’t wait to go back and try more from the menu!“

“09/11/25: The Latina staff member was very friendly and welcoming (same person I met on my last visit!) — her service attitude is excellent. The food here is always very, very delicious, and the little bunny cake was amazing with fresh ingredients.

However, I did feel disappointed with another staff member (Asian) who came across as unfriendly and gave me attitude. Since I am also Asian, I honestly don’t know if I did something wrong, but it made me uncomfortable.

Overall, the quality of the food is outstanding, and I truly enjoy coming here. I just hope the management can strengthen training for individual employees so that the service experience matches the excellent food.“

“This places is absolutely good I love the tortas, the size is huge for the price, totally worth it. They have tamales too. I had had oat with milk and rice with milk, I didn't know they also have strawberry hot drink is like champurrado is so good,there is coffee as well. They have a huge variety of bread, dessert, cold drinks.“

“I would like to recommend this bakery, they baked every day, so the bread always is fresh. highly recommend. tasty!!! A+.“

“This was my first time coming to this bakery. What originally made me come was that they were open till 8pm. I ordered the cake on Wednesday and it was ready for me on Friday. Keep in mind they are CASH ONLY! They do require a deposit which was fine.The cake was moist and not overly sweet. Everyone at our party said how delicious the cake was. They did exactly what my child wanted ( soccer and Pokemon) for his birthday cake. He was very happy! I will definitely be ordering again!“
