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!!

Had a pretty large order for my daughter’s wedding. They were very helpful and friendly when ordering. Customer service is A+. Bakery items were delicious and fresh and a very large variety to choose from. They sent us home with the most delicious bread, and when I returned to pay the remainder of the bill they sent me off with cookies. I highly recommend using this bakery, you don’t experience this kind of service these days.

Effren knows his goods and has the most patience I seen in customer care in a long time! Outstanding !!
Efren’s Bakery is fantastic! You absolutely must try their amazing mini conchas—they’re soft, flavorful, and truly addictive! Fresh pastries,The staff is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!
Picked up a chocolate flan yesterday. It was delicious. Any baked goods I have tried have been excellent. I am still trying to connect with the Napoleons, every time they are sold out.
I bought some bread and cookies.The wors flavor ever.It taste like old bread and old cookies.,not good at all.

Bought 4 Christmas Tree iced cookies for $20. Looked great. Freezer burn taste and dry. They did a great job with the presentation but failed in the taste test.

Normally wouldn’t post a poor review but I was pretty upset. Ordered two dozen cupcakes for my wife’s birthday a day ahead of time. Showed up and cupcakes were not ready. Took 10 minutes for them to figure out what happened and they wound up pulling them out of the display case. Cupcakes were so stale they were literally inedible. Ate a few and threw the rest out.
I paid $50 for these and they were embarrassing. I would have been better off getting something at the grocery store. Haven’t tried anything else at this bakery but can’t recommend the cupcakes to anybody. Hopefully they do better for customers that put in the effort to place an order ahead of time in the future.

In the past, I bought from Efren's for sometime and was quite happy.
Recently, I bought a Challah. Toasted it with butter for breakfast the next day and it was TOO SALTY to eat. I brought it back to Efren's and they said "Yea, probably added too much salt."
They gave me some new challah and several other bakery items. The next day, toasted and buttered the bread for breakfast. TOO SALTY, though not as bad as the day before.
I threw the bread out.
The next day I called the bakery to inquire about what was going on. The man who answered the phone tasted the challah himself and said it was TOO SALTY.
He said he would speak with the manager and someone would get back to me.
That was two days ago.
