Patisserie/Cake Shops near Culver City, CA

“I have known Kristy since she her original store at Abbot Kinney. She makes the most beautiful creations. But most importantly, her desserts are mouthwateringly delicious. Her desserts are both delicate and slightly sweet on the palate. Her background of French and Asian baking techniques are beautifully expressed on her dessert creations. Once you taste her desserts, everything else is secondary.“

“Everything I've had from here has been extraordinary. My favorite was a croissant-muffin filled with raspberry creme. Magical. The textures are perfect without being greasy. The savory treats are excellent, too. Note: I had no luck trying to find the Palms location. Best to go to the Maisan Macha stand at the Mar Vista farmer's market on Sundays. Come early before your favorites sell out! Updated from previous review on 2025-08-30“

“Excellent deep dish style pizza.“

“The bomb !!!! Thnk you Nour n Kay“

“We needed a birthday cake ASAP for a new employee's birthday, they were available on Postmates so we weren't sure what we would get! OMG we were sent the Strawberry Shortcake 7" cake. It was moist, not too sweet, with fresh strawberries. The best part was the real cream frosting! Thank you for making our last minute birthday lunch a success, we've found our go-to bakery!!!“

“KNEFEH a sweet breakfast treat in Lebanon and the Middle East, once you try it you will never eat doughnuts 🍩 again for breakfast. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I am excited to share the heavenly news that Doubting Thomas has been fully endorsed by the Kingdom of God and Jesus Christ, King of Wings! Congrats Chef Naomi!“

“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.“

“Artelice Patisserie is an absolute gem. 🥐✨
Their pastries are stunning to look at and even better to eat – perfectly balanced flavors, super fresh, and not overly sweet. Every visit feels special, the presentation is next level, and the staff is always kind and helpful with recommendations.

Easily one of the best patisseries around – 5/5, I’ll definitely be back!“

“Angel Maid Bakery is an absolute gem in Los Angeles! It's the perfect spot for anyone looking for stunning, high-quality sweets that won't empty their wallet.
The display cases are always a sight to behold—each cake and pastry is so beautifully decorated, you almost feel bad cutting into it. But your regret will vanish with the first bite! The baked goods are renowned for being light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming.

The selection is fantastic, offering a huge variety from their legendary strawberry shortcake and airy chiffon cakes to delectable cream puffs and individual pastries. Best of all, they consistently offer these top-notch treats at truly cheap prices for LA, making it my go-to for all occasions.“

“Everything I ever had from Vienna Pastry is beyond delicious. The staff is wonderful. My favorite cookie in the entire world is made by this fabulous bakery. I live in PA and I never make a trip to CA without several stops at Vienna Pastry. The owner, Jaleh Rahban, is one of the kindest ladies I have ever met. I recommend this shop to everyone.

“I already had a problem trying to keep myself from going to Lou's every weekend to snag one of those delicious pastries, but now I've moved to the neighborhood, and am even closer. Danger danger! Lol. I can't say enough great things about Lou - The French On The Block. As everyone says the croissants are even better than the ones in France, the lattes are fantastic, and the service is also incredibly warm and personable. This place truly lives up to the hype, and deserves every bit of its success. 🥐✨😍“

“super¡¡¡♡ mi pasteleia faborita..los muchachos que te atienden..uff super amables y muybatentos..te sientes en casa...♡♡♡“

“nice people, nice baked goods, good coffee, what else? just go see by yourself you'll like it:)“

“Always drive by this shop and finally decided to stop by with my friend. We LOVED the 3 items we got. We saw so many Tiktok & IG posts about this place and were wondering if it over-hyped. Absolutely not! Each item we got was fresh and had so much flavor and satisfying texture! Nothing was overly sweet, and they looked amazing. Can’t wait to come back next Friday and try more items. The staff was very helpful and kind. We sat inside, and had such a pleasant experience.“

“I am so happy I came across this yummy spot! I ordered the fungi, onion and truffle for delivery while I was getting an oil change at a dealership nearby. It was absolutely delicious!! The bread was warm and buttery and flaky!! I mixed the chili and tomatoes sauce that made a perfect dipping sauce. Lemonade was refreshing! I look forward to my next oil change so I can be in the area and order from them again haha ☺️“

“First, I like to clarify the two store names (Paran Poong Cha and Blue Windmill Bakery) are the same bakery located at 15200 S. Western Ave. So my review applies to both names. This is our second time at the store and this time we bought a mini blueberry cake and 4 red bean buns. The blueberry mini cake is good, not too sweet and you can see the fresh blueberries. The fresh creme is not as light and fluffy as Angel Maid's in West LA and the cake is a little denser than Angel Maid's. Overall, the cake is enjoyable and is good alternative to Angel Maid's. Next, the red bean buns are, black sesame, sweet potato and traditional red bean bun. I have not seen so much red bean filling in a bun and when you pick up the bun, you can feel how heavy the bun is. The buns are very tasty if you enjoy red bean. The sweet potato red bean is a lovely surprise, it's one of the best we tried. The filling is a mix of red bean paste and sweet potato paste, so creamy and delicious, It's a hit in our family. Finally, the owner is very generous, she gave us two types of red paste buns to try. The red bean buns are between $3.50 to $4 each. We will definitely be back again! Note, they are closed on Sundays!“

“Especially enjoyed the lime tart at my last visit.“

“If you are looking for the best birthday cakes for any occasion, empanadas, bread. I highly recommend you to come to this place. It's a good customer service with a good spirits. I highly recommend you to come to Los Angeles CA Red Ribbon“

“the best donuts in the world!“

“This spot has been open for a while and I never tried it until today. I recently went to Paris and I loved the bakeries there so I decided to try this bakery which is very close to my house. It was really good. I chose the ham and cheese croissant. It was fresh and delicious. The coffee was good too. I will be back here soon. I plan to become a regular customer weekly.“

“My favorite place to hang in LA. The staff is super sweet, the food is fantastic, the drinks are amazing, particularly the Ginger Margarita, the atmosphere is gorgeous—whether you’re inside the stunning deco bar or outside on the beautiful patio. It’s a true gem.“

“I was very pleased with the fast service. The food was delicious and plentiful and at an excellent price Highly recommended“

“I arrived at Paris Baguette and was able to park in the parking lot which they offer valet service for a small fee. This place was great because they have a variety of pastries, sandwiches coffees and much more. Everything was freshly made and made perfectly. We tried the Harvest Chicken Salad Sandwich it’s delicious. The pastries we tried were excellent and the brewed coffee and cappuccino are good also. I would recommend this place to anyone and I would like to visit again. Thank you for the staff for the great service.“

“I absolutely love this pastry café! The moment you walk in, the warm and cozy atmosphere makes you want to stay a while. The pastries are freshly baked, beautifully presented, and taste even better than they look. My personal favorite was the croissant — perfectly flaky and buttery.

The coffee is excellent, with just the right balance of flavor and strength, and the staff are genuinely friendly and welcoming. You can tell they care about both their craft and their customers.

I absolutely loved their fresh and large portion sandwiches.

I strongly recommend this place.“

“Korean Bakery. This is a famous franchise brand from South Korea.They make unique collection of fresh baked pastries and sweet desserts every day. Their selections are inspiration of French bakery (obviously right?)Fresh individual cakes and birthday cakes are always available.“

“Its right in the corner. Its small but they have all kind of sweet bread. Had a craving. Plus the Birote/ Bonilla looked soon good. [ It was soo crunchy and soft from the inside. Ate it by itself????]. It wasn't packed. It was recommended so I had to go. The Lady who was there was Real Sweet--->no Pun intended. So Great Customer service. Sweet Bread was Real good to.

“A few months ago, I was in Paris Baguette at Wilshire and Wester. I purchase coffee and pastries. Because of the customers behind me, I rushed to move away for the next customer. After leaving the store, I realized I had lost my bundle of cash wrapped in a napkin. I rushed back to the store and asked staff members if anyone had turned in my money. One of the staff, MARI, heard me and asked me what I had lost. I described it and she went back to get my money. I am 67 yrs old. This meant so much to me. Thank you MARI and God bless you 🙏“

“Paris Baguette is always a treat, thanks to their amazing pastries and friendly staff. Fatima is especially wonderful—so welcoming and kind! Whether it’s cakes, croissants, or savory bites, everything is top quality. Highly recommend this spot for a quick, delicious pick-me-up!“

“Delish! And if you get there early no long lines!“

“I went to go pick up a too good to go order and they had such a variety of things to try and all their pastries tasted so fresh and so good, the cafe itself was so pretty and spacious it gave pastry store but with a cafe. Outside seating and inside seating too, waited too long for service there was no one in the front to take order but ambiance and taste of pastries made up for it.“

“Great selection. Love the peach green tea.“

“#LosAngeles #TheGrove #Sprinkles_Cupcakes

“Cute Temptation”

I once wondered what the difference was between cupcakes and muffins.
A muffin is a cupcake-shaped cake, and cupcakes are always decorated with sweet icing on top. So cupcakes can create artistic and diverse beauties.

Most of America's famous cupcakes have their own unique characteristics. It is loved for its beauty. Of course, taste is also important (in fact, famous restaurants have very good taste).

Sprinkles is the most famous cupcake brand in the LA area. In addition to the Grove Mall branch here, you can find it at Beverly Grove, Downtown LA, and Glendale Americana Mall.
What's interesting is that you can sometimes see this house's cupcake vending machine... It's a really novel idea, and it might be fun to find it in Beverly Hills and try it out.

#shape
The circle decoration that is the symbol of this house is very pretty.
Unlike other cupcakes, it has a cute concept, so it has the magic of making you want to adopt a puppy and take it home haha.

#taste
Like most American cupcakes, they are very sweet.
It may be too much for those who are sensitive to sweet tastes, but when you eat it, you will feel the combination of American sweetness and soft cake sheet. I tried red velvet and s’mores...
I liked the softness of the red velvet, which was of a higher standard than any other restaurant in Korea (strangely, red velvet in Korea doesn't live up to its name haha, it should be as soft as velvet...), and the s'mores had the taste of marshmallows in the cake, just like making real s'mores. The hidden bitterness of the dark chocolate balances the taste.

Magnolia Cupcakes in New York
Georgetown Cupcakes in Washington DC
And please remember that there is Sprinkles Cupcake in LA haha.“

“This Korean style bakery is conveniently located in the shopping center right in front of H Mart. I tried a few of their baked goods, and they were all delicious. I especially loved how beautifully the cakes were presented, you can choose to buy a whole cake or just a single slice.“

“drops by here whenever we go Wilshire Blvd. Family � 85 degrees from the first time twas introduced by my sis.“

“Excellent in all categories! We have ordered for our staff, and EVERYONE loves the delicious Mini Fruit Bites and especially the magnificent huge Baked Cookies!!! What a hit! And to top it off, rich Lavazza café!!! Can't get any better and, in particular, thank you to the wonderful Paris Baguette staff who are courteous, kind, and accommodating!!!“

“Review for Paris Baguette on 818 N Pacific Avenue, #E Glendale, Ca 91203:
Excellent service from Nico and Matt!! They were so courteous, friendly and made sure we have everything that we wanted. The cappuccino cake is delicious and not too sweet!
I highly recommend this place as they are very accommodating and patient while we are still thinking of what cake to get!“

“Highly recommending, their best seller, TRIPLE BERRY CAKE with their own French press coffee!“

“Pretty reasonably priced cupcakes, however they initially gave me a carrot cupcake instead of pumpkin but were super apologetic and gave me the pumpkin one for free! Otherwise yummy and cheap for a late night treat! The double chocolate was the best flavor in my opinion“

“Dippin’ Dots served here!!!!!! They have a special freezer for it, not like the ones sold at gas stations. I am so happy, i have no idea where else its sold outside of malls/amusement parks/zoos

Parking: Large parking lot around the complex“

“Thank you Maria for being to welcome. It’s been a pleasure visiting and this store knowing that I will be giving great hospitality. Great to see a smile when craving something sweet and delicious. Although I forgot my review after my first visit here on Western and Wilshire is a great pleasure to return.“

“GREAT food and atmosphere i love it“

“delicious baked goods.. was visiting from las Vegas and stopped in while shopping. thankfully we have one that just opened in Vegas. I'll be going soon!“
