Egg Custard Tarts (Dan Tat) are really good. The crust is flakey and the custard is smooth and has structure. Not too sweet is the best compliment! You can eat 100 of these and not get tired of them. They have a matcha variation that is very impressive. There are floral notes of the tea and it's a bit sweeter for the sweet tooth's out there. The prices are a bit higher, but I would say it's justified with the quality of a a family owned business that doesn't get much foot traffic from the masses. What a hidden gem. P.S. bring cash! I'll be back for more!

One of my favorite bakeries in the bay. Super reasonably priced but not a particularly large selection. Pastries being individually wrapped was a nice touch and helps keep over multiple days.

What a horrible dump. They charge 2.35 for a baked pork bun that barely has a tablespoon of the pork in the bun. What a waste of money and rip off. There literally no pork filling just an empty bun

Purchased 6 baked BBQ pork buns and 6 baked chicken buns. They each cost $2.35Much to my disappointment BBQ pork bun was bland and had very little filling that had alot of fat chunks. The chicken bun was seasoned with too much pepper had a little more filling than the BBQ pork.Do not waste your money here.If you want a deliciously filled pork bun try going to San Francisco: Clement BBQ and Good Luck Dim Sum.

The sesame seed balls are thick and not much sweet red bean paste, but the taste is acceptable. The mango pudding is very sweet but the coconut pudding has the right amount of sugar…

I used go here all the time! I started going when I was in middle school, I think? I would always get their hotdog buns or normal buns, and man were they divine! Amazing atmosphere! I haven't been in a while but I need stop by again soon. I miss their hotdog buns!

Egg custard tart on point! This place has traditional items and good quantity for all the things I tried.
Noelle's Yelp Notebook 2023Post Pandemic ChroniclesNew Horizons Bakery is located in the King Shopping Center in Daly City. It's in the same shopping center as Ling Nam Star Bread Bakery.After spending time in Hong Kong I couldn't get how much more delicious the food (savory and sweet) was there then here in the United States. I remember having the most delicious Dan Tat (custard egg tarts) and Jiandui (deep fried sesame balls with sweet bean filling).Golden Gate Bakery was my go to before I visited HK. Nothing compares to HK. Unfortunately, GGB is rarely open. My cousin Fred told me about New Horizons Bakery- he even brought us fresh Dan Tat and it was amazing. On par with GGB, maybe even better.The customer service is friendly and fast at New Horizons Bakery. Everything is fresh and delicious. Our go to items are the Dan Tar and Jiandui of course :)Highly recommend this spot to family and friends. If you have a large order be sure to call in advance.Noelle's NotesGet there early as parking is difficult They take cash and credit cardsLarge orders- call in advanceDan Tat and Jiandui is amazing!!!

This place is overpriced for the overall quality and even the size you get. I got 4 items total:1) 2 sesame seed balls (pictured)2) Ham & cheese sandwich3) Bbq pork pastry.Didn't get a pic of #2 & 3 because I ate them on my way to work this morning.1) Let me start with the sesame seed balls: ($1.30 each. Should go back to $1)The entire texture of the sesame ball and flavor of the paste is my favorite. However, the whole ball is almost tennis-ball size, BUT the paste inside is VERY miniscule and not even centered! (See picture).2) Ham & Cheese SW ($2.15):About 4" long. Loved the softness of the bread. The slice of ham is very thin, and the egg is fluffy, but overall, the flavor is VERY bland.3) Bbq Pork Pastry($2.15)The best one out of the 3. The flavor of the bbq pork was delicious. The bread is crispy too. However, only 2" long and the same price as the bland ham & cheese??What a joke.I say I would come back to try other pastries they have, but this place is something I wouldn't crave myself or recommend to others.IT'S JUST OKAY.

I love that they wrap each bao individually. Also, their matcha egg tarts are so good. Not too sweet with a hint of matcha.

The red bean ice cream smoothie is highly recommended. It’s the taste of Guangzhou.

There aren't that many places outside of SF that has the transitional bread that I grew up with. This is the best place in the peninsula for Chinese baked goods, especially the Dan Tats! Everything is always fresh and prices are very reasonable!
