50 Best Bakeries near Foothill Ranch

“Wonderful pastrys and bread. The staff is very nice.“

“Saffron Bakery is easily the best bakery in the neighborhood. The baked goods are outstanding, especially the insanely flaky croissants, rich savory pastries, and fresh, high-quality bread made with excellent ingredients you can actually taste. Everything is baked fresh and the textures and flavors are consistently perfect.

Their breakfast and lunch options are just as good, filling, flavorful, and made with the same level of care. On top of that, the prices are incredibly fair for the quality.

The owner is genuinely kind and welcoming.“

“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.“

“It’s very rare for a bakehouse to have both excellent pastries as well as delicious coffee. Diotima has one of the best and most inventive assortments of pastries I’ve had in the US. Quality rivals that of the best bakehouses in France. Support this amazing local business!! I wish they were open on Sundays too!“

“Highly recommended especially in making a customized cake. Thank you Samira for copying everything what my grandson’s wished design. And also the cake was delicious“

“I recomend her cake!! we love what she created for us , RV cake for my husband, it look so real and great that I did not wanted to cut it. thank you“

“I love the Savour Pastry shop under the new ownership. I love the quality and taste of their products tremendously. My favorite items on the menu are Almond Croissant, Cream Broiler and Almond Cake plus all the rest of the pastry they make. I take their pastry to all my friends and to every gathering that I am invited to. I am so glad to support a local business, which is providing quality food and excellent services.“

“If you have not visited this Heidelberg Pastry Shop in Laguna Hills, you are cheating yourself of a better life.“

“This was my first time ever trying Crumbl Cookies. Today only 11/6, Crumbl Cookies is offering FREE Chocolate Chip Cookie Thins for each visitor that comes in for one; no purchase necessary.

This was a great way for me to try them out for the first time. When I first walked in, I didn’t expect the place to look so clean!

It was spick and span and there were cookies laid out in front. There were two women working at the time. I didn’t catch the name of the girl I spoke to.

I came in and asked her if they were giving away FREE Cookies today and she said they were. She told me what to press on the machine to order my cookies. She wasn’t very friendly though. I placed my order she handed me my cookies and I told her this was my first visit.

Usually when I tell a business that I’m a first-time customer, they’re more open to explaining what they have, who they are, their process, etc. I don’t get that this time. I also noticed after I grabbed my cookies, she kinda spied on me in odd way as I was leaving.

As far as the cookies, I honestly didn’t expect to receive two! I give them a 3.5/5. They tasted like chocolate chip ginger cookies to me, which was good.

I may visit a Crumbl Cookies again if they have some better flavors I’d like to try and some more warming customer service.“

“The associate was friendly and very good at explaining everything. Regardless of your cookie selection, you cannot make a poor choice, as each flavor is exceptionally delicious and generously sized. We all shared each cookie so that we could sample every flavor.“

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

“I visited this store for the first time on March 5. Sam greeted me and immediately built rapport, making me feel so comfortable. I hope his manager realizes what a great employee he is. After I'd ordered my sandwich, he asked if it was my first time there, and he offered me a free pastry of my choice. How exciting! I chose the item that looks like a Napoleon, but the layers are not made of puff pastry (which was disappointing). The cream was delicious, and I enjoyed it immensely. It just wasn't as light an fluffy as I imagined it would be. And attempting to cut into it resulted in a squished dessert.

The vegetarian sandwich was one of those sandwiches that defies the ability to eat it like a regular sandwich. It was a roll so stuffed with veggies and a yummy pistachio sauce (I added fresh mozzarella for protein), I'd have had to unhinge my jaw to take a bite out of it. Since I was eating in public, I chose to be a bit more civilized. ;) I managed.

I highly recommend this place, and 'll definitely be going back. Thank you!“

“i really like crumbl!! i would totally give this 5 stars but this specific one though is closest to my house and they have not done any special hometown picks or fun features that other crumbls do through the app. i have been waiting to see some fun hometown picks for the RSM location but sadly i only see Foothill Ranch doing it. Compared to Foothill Ranch, the RSM crumbl customer service is mediocre, as no one seems like they want to be working there however the cookies are great nonetheless i just hope i start seeing more fun stuff in the app for the RSM location!!“

“It's a nice place bathroom was nice the tiles look like bricks.... the food is delicious you should try those cream cheese donuts i could eat all of them all the time and I'm pretty sure I'd still want some cream cheese donuts...“

“These cookies are amazing and best in Orange County. We got an assortment of 4 cookies in a bright pink box that the family loved as a desert treat after dinner. They had chocolate chip and frosting and sprinkles on their cookies.Love this place with great service as well.“

“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.“

“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!“

“The cookies are delicious, definitely would come again. They have weekly flavors, so you never get tired of the same old cookies. I got the Benson Boone Moonbeam Ice cream cookie, and it’s amazing. My favorite cookie, however, is the original chocolate chip cookie, it’s super sweet and warm, and topped with sea salt. Luckily, the original chocolate chip is always a choice of cookies you can buy.“

“I have had many of Shadi’s cakes for different occasions and celebration; I have to say, they are all so delicious and mouthwatering. Her apple Tart Tatin is to die for! Her cheese cakes are out of this world! Especially her Mars cheese cake is absolutely one of a kind. You have to try it to believe how delicious they are. Banana lovers, you must try her chocolate chip banana cake! It’s so yummy 🤤 Also as a person Shadi is as sweet or I should say truthfully sweeter than her Sweets 😉 She is always smiling and so pleasant to work with. You have a double advantage , not only you get a beautifully decorated cake it’s also super yummy and delicious that you have to fight over the crumbs! I highly recommend her to everyone!“

“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.“

“I simply love this place their prices are great the cake are fresh and super delicious, super professional and on time foe delivery. I highly recommend this bakery if you want a delicious fresh beautiful cake this is definitely the place. Thank you Simply Cakes and cupcakes for making our beautiful retirement cake. 🤩“

“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 😍“

“Stopped in this morning to Royal Donuts and Burgers for a cup of hot coffee. I also ordered a ham & cheese croissant with Jalapeños and a cold orange juice. I ordered the items to go and took them home to enjoy while watching the Christmas move, Die Hard! Is it really a Christmas movie? Lol
Great customer service and recommended.“

“Taste of Persia is a charming pastry shop that feels like an Iranian bazaar, with warm scents of saffron and rosewater. Their Zoolbia, Bamieh, and Baklava are crispy, all natural ingredients, and perfectly balanced, Don’t miss their delicious homemade Sangak bread, fresh and flavorful. The welcoming staff, Tina and Elli are super friendly! Very cozy atmosphere make it a must-visit for authentic Persian treats.“

“The cake had a simple appearance, and she could only write “Happy Birthday” in brown, which I found odd. I was initially a bit concerned—it was a thin, two-layer 8” cake for $50. However, the taste more than made up for it! It wasn’t overly sweet, and the strawberry filling with whipped cream frosting was absolutely delicious. I would absolutely order another cake from Bye Bye Sugar!!!👍🏾“

“I am so pleased with the cookies and mini cupcakes for our family baby shower today. The Winnie the Pooh themed treats were not only beautiful, but delicious as well.“

“Azi at Macaroon Land was an absolute pleasure to work with! Her macarons were incredibly delicious! Moist, soft with a bite, and oh so tasty!!! She made the most beautiful macarons to match with my bridal shower theme and all my guests loved them. The flavors were incredible and the macarons melted in your mouth. I can’t wait to work with Azi again!“

“The place is in a great location sit here have your coffee course go bye you can see the mountains. The service is amazing for food. Amazing you recommended by me and many of my friends and family. They even have organic food, which is awesome and gluten-free.“

“Aside from there delicious little Bundt cakes, I wanted to provide a review on their customer service. When we realized this location was closing in 10 minutes, we were hesitant to go in because the young lady was sweeping the floor. I work in a service industry as well so I understand how 'last minute' guests can be 😉. She was quick to make eye contact with us as soon as we walked in. She also stopped cleaning right away to service us with a smile. She was friendly & patient and said we would be able to get another coupon like the one we used for my birthday if we complete a survey. Filling out this survey is less about the coupon but more about Carissa. Wonderful young lady with great work ethic and a warm demeanor. Great hire, Nothing Bundt Cakes Laguna Hills! Thanks again for consistently delicious little Bundtlets!“

“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. ?“

“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!“

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

“I absolutely love bagel shack in Irvine. They are so nice and get my bagel right every single time they’re so fresh and delicious. I go at least twice a week and I am never unsatisfied with their service and the taste of their delicious bagels.“

“Highly recommend Sweet N Rush. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟“

“I love this place and their coffee. The pastries are always freshly baked and yummy! Please open one in Chicago“

“As someone who loves to bake, these cookies are phenomenal (this visit I got the chocolate chip and marble). Usually at a lot of places the cookies are too sweet and cakey. These cookies are subtly sweet and have a great texture to them. This is a spot I’d be willing to drive to even though I’m not from the area. Will be coming back!“

“friendly individuals and very taste treats.“

“We indulged in the delightful treats of strawberry croissant and tiramisu croissant. The service was exceptionally friendly and kind. We are definitely looking forward to returning. :-)“

“I had been here before ..but you really need an HR or so to see all the product .. specially if you are not familiar with Persian cuisine. They have Soo many spices and so many things I've never even knew existed. Their produce had some good prices and they also have bulk items such as 40lb bags of rice and beans..flours and dried fruit. They also make bread and cakes.“

“Staff is normally friendly. Food is good. Drinks are good. ......Today was not a good day for them. The lady inside decided she needed to yell at someone and decided to yell at my wife. There is a 3 person minimum in the Store, which I understand. We both went inside and there were two people in there. They lady decided that the best customer service approach was to Yell rudely at my wife "THERE ARE ONLY 3 PEOPLE ALLOWED AT A TIME, YOU NEED TO GET OUT.". .....We both went out and we came back in and while checking out, I told the lady she was very rude to my wife. She decided again the best Customer Service approach was to argue and yell at me " THERE ARE ONLY 3 PEOPLE ALLOWED AT A TIME." This one BAD BOBA won't deter us from coming back, because we have always had good experiences there. She just needs to be called out on this. I am pretty sure she is the supervisor for the morning.“

“I got a 3 leches cake this past Saturday (9/13) and let me tell you the flavor was amazing. I haven’t had a delicious and moist 3 leches cake in a long time. We would usually buy it from el Molino across the street but the past years their cakes have been super dry! It has nothing of 3 leches,
I was at the plaza where Efren’s bakery is and saw on a facebook group recommending this bakery so decided to try it out, didn’t disappoint! Our guests loved the cake as well! We devoured it!
Will definitely be coming back for more cake and try also their pan dulce!!“

“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!😆❤️❤️👌🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Seriously this place is amazing. The bread is so fresh and delicious. Everything I have had has been awesome! They are very nice also. This place is extremely dangerous for people like myself that love bread and carbs. This is a must try if you are in the area. It is a hidden gem.“

“Get the Korean Iced Milk Coffee and thank me later. I don’t know what or how many pumps of syrup they’re putting in this thing, but it’s sweet and will get you going/your day started right. It was so good I’m leaving this five star review one week later.

This PB is located inside a Korean supermarket you can also pick up gimbap (Korean rolls) and dduk (Korean rice cakes); perfect for a day out at the park or before theme parks, hikes, and the beach.“

“Terrific job for our teams luncheon! Very clean establishment, with a wonderful staff. food was fantastic and very flavorful,. Really good portions, exceptional shrimp tacos! We also really enjoyed the flan. Plenty of options on their menu, and everyone said their food was really good- I especially loved the flavorful guac! Every person in our group agreed it was an overall great lunch. Our team will be back soon to support local and take advantage of the excellent grub!“

“I have visited JJ Bakery Irvine over a decade. I love their Traditional Taiwanese breads , pastries and sweets. Here are a few items that I would recommend (in pic order)

1. Egg Tart: I always purchase two egg tarts when I have the chance. But, it got sold out quickly.
2.Taro Pastry: Real taro paste, not too sweet. It is very delicious

3. Custard Bread: One of the traditional Taiwanese breads.
4. Scallion Bread: It is savory. Sometimes, I like savory breakfast.

5. Flan: Flan is located at the refrigerator near the entrance. It is dense instead of watery. I love it.

6. Almond Cookie:Perfect snack while I am watching Netflix.( It won’t last 20 minutes though)“

“5 stars all the way! Great location, large store with bright, pleasant decor, fresh rolls and super friendly staff..what’s not to love?They’ve only just opened and seem to be extremely busy. They serve Cinnabon & Auntie Anne’s so you can get both your sweet & savory treats at the same time! Great addition to the plaza.“

“I eat here often. Their sandwiches & cookies are very tasty and everyone here is always super friendly and always smiling!“
