Patisserie/Cake Shops near Glendale, CA

“The best pastry shop in the greater Los Angeles area and perhaps all of LA county. You won’t find a stale croissant or over-creamed eclair here. No, this is not your average neighborhood bakery or pastry shop. Cool Bites is a legitimate patisserie in the truest sense, ran by an expert chef, with an exceptional amount of care and craftsmanship in the creation of each individual sweet. I recommend the pistachio eclair, which I see in my dreams once a week.“

“Great selection. Love the peach green tea.“

“Small cafe style restaurant/bakery. We ordered the ham and cheese croissant and the smoked sausage roll. Both were very good, as was the iced mocha and peach tea. The mini cream puffs were divine, and we took several pastries to try at home. The service was friendly and the staff were very efficient. I'll be back to try the cheese tarts!

Parking: Crowded at store level but I noticed there was parking in the back and below store level.“

“My lord!! Idk some people are saying it’s not worth the price for the pretty pastries, but it’s not like you bought some cookies. They’re legit pretty and have not only a lot of visual effort, but the inner flavor as well. Not overwhelming, it’s a perfect balance. We got four. My favorite is probably the Saint Honore (Donut looking one), My dads is the Valentino, (Red one), and my moms is the Valentino as well. It was super good and worth it about $10 on average we spend roughly $40. Was it expensive for what we got? Meh not really if you think it’s like an ice cream shop and you go get ice cream almost everyday then yeah. But I don’t eat sweets/buy them on a daily. Worth the try if you are unsure. And yes the big Roche was exactly like the candy except better! It was a close competition between the Saint and Roche for me.“

“Excellent deep dish style pizza.“

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!!“

“Delight Pastry is a serious step up. A true gem for anyone who appreciates quality and flavor.

We tried several items, and most were outstanding:

Queen Aman: Absolutely perfect (10/10)

Nutella & Almond Croissant: Rich and flaky (9/10)

Spanakopita Pastry: Super fresh and flavorful (9/10)

Cheese & Ham Croissant: Tasty and well-balanced (8/10)

Custard with Chocolate Chips: Our least favorite, a bit underwhelming (6/10)“

“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.“

“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!“

“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. 🥐✨😍“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“This Taiyaki + Ice Cream place is at the level of other giants such as SomiSomi. The soft serve has a perfect texture (I tried the Pure Milk flavor with a Taiyaki on top, the Taiyaki being filled with Nutella), the service is quick and efficient, and the store was crowded when my two friends and I went on a Saturday evening. The ambiance is great too, there are so many pictures showing what the options are like, and there are clearly-illustrated menus spread throughout the restaurant. The toppings are available for the customers to grab and add to their ice cream as they wish, and everything, from the Oreo crumbs to the Banana chips are great. You can truly feel that every single item in this store is, indeed, made With Love.“

“riquísimo sin duda volveré“

“i called in and was able to order a
cake for same day pickup. the worker was extremely nice on the phone and when we arrived at the bakery. we ordered a black sesame cake for the new year and it was so delicious and came with a cake topper! not too sweet and the sesame taste was nutty and fragrant! would definitely order again! my family really enjoyed it :)“

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

“the best donuts in the world!“

“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“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is my second time coming here, and it was just as great as the first! The place has such a nice vibe, and the staff are really helpful and friendly. I especially loved the banana latte and the dessert—everything was perfect. I’ll definitely be back!“

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

“This place is extraordinary. Every bread has a unique name... special ones made Fri sat sun like this one it's so delicious it's some sort of rice pudding in the middle the tastes it's so delightful fluffy chewy not too sweet no one makes better bread than this bakery I go Sundays for this special one it's called "el TORCANTE "try it you won't regret awesome prices they even have big gallons of milk and coffee on the go I wish they can make a atole that would rock the guy that works there is supper humble and very nice ...“

“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. I will be coming Again. Many Blessibgs to All and Stay Safe???“

“Bought a cake for a going away party for my coworker who moved to Texas. The cake was exactly what I asked for. I had to pickup the cake at a store-front. The store-front is a cafe that belongs to a different business that is partnering with this baker. You have to go inside and let them know you are there to pickup your cake. The cafe store-frint sells good food and drink too, and the customer service was excellent.“

“My stress reliever. I try to be there every other weekend to gets all my favorite“

“This Taiwanese bakery has such a wide selection of pastries, it’s impossible to choose just one. My top pick is the sea salt coffee—slightly sweet and perfectly balanced. I also love their taro buns and brioche. The prices are reasonable, considering the quality. Best to go early, because the popular items sell out fast“

“Dear Paris Baguette, your pastries are always a comforting treat every time I return to Koreatown. I love stopping by after my morning runs at 6:30 AM. The staff is always so welcoming and friendly, making each visit a pleasure. There’s such a wide variety of baked goods to choose from, like buttery croissants, soft coffee buns, indulgent cheese tarts, delicious cakes, and hearty multigrain bread. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them! Everything is always fresh and top-notch!!“

“Wonderful experience thanks to Jasmin! The cupcakes were a hit. My sister loved them. Jasmin helped me with a special order delivery and went above and beyond. She made the process so easy and clearly cared about getting every detail just right. Great service!“

“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.“

“While I liked the custard donut and strawberry cake slice I got, I was upset because I had hoped to try their black sesame buns. They ran out by then. The location is across from H-Mart, which is convenient. There are also many other restaurants in the plaza it's located in or around the bakery.

Would come by more often if it weren't so far from me in SGV.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Mango Lemonade Refresher was a bit on sweeter side for me, but a good refresher for spring/summer for anyone to cool down and like mango flavor. The service is quick since it was not as busy and on a weekday.

The location is on the 1st floor by the escalator. There is a paid parking garage within the plaza.“

“I'm come here mostly everyday and the service is amazing, they already know my regular order which is awesome and there Pastries are incredible. I recommend to everyone who passes by to come check em out it's always a good vibe here“

“#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.“
