How is this place not known all over? Even the locals barely know about this bakery!I finished a stressful week at work and wanted to reward myself with a sweet treat or donut. As it was towards the end of the day, many shops were about to close and I didn't want a crusty old donut. I was searching through Google and saw that Colin's had great reviews and it closed at 6:30.The bakery is hidden away in what appears to be a bit of an industrial location. It shares space with a small car lot and if it didn't have a sign, you would not know it's there. Upon entry, it smelled amazing. It's small, and there are many units with goodies in them. It's self-serve, they have clean serving trays and clean tongs. You take one of each and place your selection on the tray and then take it up to the counter. They box it up and you pay. Then on your way.During the time I was there, there was a steady stream of people going in and out. The owner (?) came out from behind, greeted me, and told me the young man up front could answer any questions I had. It looks like it's either family run because of the homey feel.I had a full large box that I took home and it was very very reasonably priced. The full box was less than 20 dollars. If I were to buy 2-3 of the items I had in that box by my place, easily at least $10 just for 2-3 items.What I also loved about this place is that it had more than donuts and conchas (Mexican sweet bread). Though they have different names for the pastries, they essentially had European style pastries as well as others that I'm not familiar with.Definitely coming back for my sweet fixes.

Bought a cake yesterday from the display case. Got home and was so excited to try because I love tres leches cake! Cake was dry and was not appetizing the flavor was really sour I felt like that cake had been sitting there for at least a week.? 57$ gone to waste. Won’t be going here again! I’ll just stick to Ramirez

The small Mexican bakery holds a ton of goodies. My favorite are the little cheese cakes and the conchas, among other things. I also love to order birthday cakes from here as they are very accommodating to our needs. Great people and great place.

This little hidden gem has some amazing Tres Leches cakes! My mom and I come here often when she’s craving these 3 milk cakes. They offer other baked goods and breads as well. This is a great place for getting treats on the go or if you’re having a get together, they offer larger cakes and items to accomodate.
I highly recommend this bakery to anyone! They have a great variety of pan dulce. The conchas were so good and soft. I even purchased a tres leches cake and introduced/served it to our residents at our assisted living where I work and they loved it!! They said it was perfect! I'll be back again.

Well mannered and very understanding.The variety of sweet bread and pastries was pretty impressive in my opinion.I bought quite a variety to share with the family but of course I had to try some before I got home. I had this crumble puff caramel glaze fill pastry covered in sugar....I thought it was so good! If you love crumbly pastries/cookies this is it.I wish you the best in your future endeavors and new creations. ?
Love coming to there bakery reminds me of my Texas & Mexican style breads..

My family loves the fresh mexican pan de dulce, pastries of all kinds and the cakes are moist and delicious. We love to get the bolillos at the start of every week so that we can make sandwiches. Friendly staff too!It’s tucked away inside a parking lot so it’s easy to miss.

Very nice shop. The pastries are shown in glass cases that you can pick yourself. Very clean and efficient. Love the cakes. Just be sure to watch that first step in. I tripped on it!
