A very cute little cafe where you can pick whichever fresh pastry you want & a drink to go with it, one of my favorite on-the-go brunch stops in the area.

The cashier woman (afternoon of September 1, 2025) has some major anger management issues. She was rude, angry, and short, not only to me, but to everyone who walked in in the three or four minutes I was in there. Pastries were mediocre.

The almond pastry was dry and chewy. Very bland even for me. I can eat less sugary things but it was nothing to write home about.
She was super aggressive when I first walked in. Even when I told her the marcoons were bad and we didn't enjoy the vanilla one. She continued to sell us how good everyone loved them.
I think out of towners and uncultured people may enjoy.

Light fluffy cake. Was delicious not overly sweet! Unsure if I’d return but they did not have much left in the display case when I arrived around 5:30p on a Tuesday 🤷🏻♀️
Fresh made pastries in a cute little shop 😍Got the mango mousse cake and chocolate one and they were delicious.
Absolutely the best bread for the best prices
Small quaint bakery with individually wrapped goods. At first, I was excited to grab things and try a variety of baked goods. However, as a fan of 85c Bakery. This didn't come close to the asian baked goods I thought I was used to. Everything g tasted like buns with different toppings. The breadi g was not fluffy and soft as I had hoped. Maybe this is normal but not what I expected. What saves this place is the cake. The cake was very light and not super sweet, very asian style. I would buy another cake from here but not the baked goods.

Favorite Chinese bakery in Pittsburgh!
Cake looked lovely when I picked it up but the icing slid after one hour despite being refrigerated
Delicious bakery that I have been frequenting for a while. I finally met one of the owners, Helen. She is so sweet and kind. She is so welcoming!
My favorite treats are the vegetable curry puff, the taro mochi, and the taro bread. Must try their sliced cloud bread! Taro is my favorite, but they do have other flavors which are equally yummy. It's great on its own, toasted, or use it to make French toast if you are feeling extra indulgent!
They are always offering new pastries, and recently added new cakes by the slice in the cooler. Excited to try those!
They have best chocolate cake in town and also the best vanilla swiss roll but you have to call in advance to place the order to make sure they got them. They have hot fresh baked goods. Also the mango green or black tea with mango popping boba is the best, they charge 5% convenience fees for cards transactions
