Came here for the viral croissants! very pretty and love the biscoff flavor. The croissant was a little harder than I thought but still good. No wait when I came!

Lots of pastries there, and they have drinks to go along with your sweets. The place is small, but it’s definitely worth a visit. I went there for the spiral croissants and it had the creamy taste you would expect from these kind of pastries.

Fancy flavor indeed!!! I've been following Fancy Flavors on IG before they even opened up this store and have always wanted to try their macarons, as I'm a sucker for macs!!!! Then shortly after, she started making spiral croissants, which I've been seeing all over social media, but have never tried them before. I don't live local to FF, so I haven't had the chance to stop by, but was gifted with a box of spiral croissants yesterday and I was SO HAPPY!! The spiral croissants were SO GOOD and such a hit! We all loved it and the flavors were so good. I love how subtle the mango flavor was- not too strong and not too fruity! It was the perfect creaminess and a very light kick of tart. I believe the other flavor was "crookie", which was just as good! I didn't find the croissant to be "dry" or anything. It may appear dry, but I think the best way to eat it is by cutting it up and ensure you have the filling with every bite. Delicious!!! Granted, this review is based on the spiral croissants alone, but it's well deserved! Great job, Jessica and Team!!!

I was in the area and I had to try this place out. Service was quick. I had the pistachio and confetti macaroon. Also had the spiral croissant. All items were amazing, they were delicious. The matcha latte was good, had an earthy taste to it.

This place has been bookmarked for a while and I was finally in the area to check it out! I'm a macaron lover to the death. I love a delicous soft shell with a delicious filling (pistacho is my fav) and while all the other goods looked amazing I just wanted a box of 6 to satisfy the craving. I got 5 flavors 2 pistachio and 4 other flavors. The macaron shells are the perfect textures. The first bite was a nice shell and soft interior with no air gap. The fillings are true to their name and description. Not a flavor match for me but that is a personal preference. Everything tastes how it should. The shop is very cute and there's detail and time put into the space. The service was great. Acknowledged at the door and overall service was fast and friendly. There's parking in front of the store and shared with all the other stores in this shopping area. I will come back to try other items and will continue to try the other macaron flavors because I can't help myself!

Went on a weekend after 3pm. The unique flavored spiral croissants still get sold out quickly. So I didn't get the chance to try those. I got the classic spiral croissant instead, which is basically the vanilla flavor. I like how generous Fancy Flavors are with the filling inside compared to Marvel's Cakes. I felt like the croissant is more on the drier side. Meh, it tasted okay once I munch on the croissant and filling as a whole for a while. Gotta say that the aesthetics in the shop are cute. I mean look at those cute Easter bunnies on display!! Ahhh so cute!! They also close on Mondays and Tuesdays FYI and you can follow them @officialfancyflavors on Instagram!

I'll come back one day to get the spiral croissant but they sell out quick! This review is for the cookies, specifically almond croissant! DELICIOUS!! Ube chocolate chip was good but the star of the show was the 10/10 almond croissant cookie that has all the flavor of an almond croissant with the soft chewy crunch of a cookie (I warmed it up)! The chocolate drizzle on top makes it taste like a chocolate almond croissant actually! Which is even better!! And there were white chocolate chips inside that were surprisingly not too sweet! The workers were nice and efficient! I didn't wait long for my food and drink! There's some seating inside and two small tables outside if you want to enjoy your treats right away.

Visited this bakery excited to try their much-talked-about spiral croissants, selecting the creme brulee, ube, and original flavors. Arrived right at their opening time of 11am, we found only a few people ahead of us. In addition to the spiral croissants, we also got the cream puff and Ferrero macaron, which were okay but, like the spiral croissants, felt as though they had been sitting out for too long. Unfortunately, all the pastries we tried were disappointingly dry. The trip here didn't live up to the hype, and despite seeing this on TikTok/IG, I'm inclined not to return.

Happened to discover this gem on google maps in search of cake bakeries for my daughter's birthday cake selection. We have a deep love for macarons so we had to do a quick drop in & try this place out. Inside the store is very clean and chic. There were lots of festive decorations from Valentine's Day which are super fun. The girl serving us was easygoing, answered any question we had and there were a good amount of items to choose from. We decided to choose the cutest kitty cat cream puff and a dozen macarons. 6 raspberry, 2 strawberry passion fruit, 2 lavender, 1 churro, and 1 cake batter. We also ordered 2 drinks an iced chai and an iced honey cinnamon latte. There's a few tables to sit down and enjoy your sweet treats. Everything was really tasty and priced accordingly. $55 for 12 macarons, 1 cream puff pastry, and 2 regular sized drinks.

Overall: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Love the macarons from Fancy Flavors! My favorite flavor is churro, ferrero, earl grey, fruity cereal. I like how they come out with special macrons like during football season, they had the 49ers designed macrons. They've also had BTS, Taylor Swift, winter specials. They also have spiral croissants and every week they alternate the flavors. Usually they're asian inspired flavors like Thai Tea, Sesame, and even unique flavors like Durian! I also like that they participate in Too Good To Go, so nothing goes to waste. The staff is friendly and there's always parking available.

Tried for the first time and while good it could be better. The croissant was extremely dry so I tossed it out as soon as I got home. Which is disappointing for $7. But I couldn’t enjoy the filling inside when the whole dessert is dry. The macarons were nice. The shells were the right consistency. Flavor wasn’t very noticeable. But nice to say the least. The brownie was great. Good flavor and tasty. I’d like to try again. The staff was very kind. But can’t say I’d get a croissant again.
