I had no idea this was here! The lady was so sweet and the baked goods were absolutely stunning. I was shocked they had a decent selection an hour before closing. My family tried four different items and they were all delicious. You could tell that whomever was making these treats, it was a passion. Definitely highly recommend!

Wonderful Asian Bakery in Amherst. The chiffon and roll cakes were perfectly done with the right amount of sweetness (that coveted Chinese "not too sweet"). We gpt the matcha roll slice and dark chocolate chiffon slice. The flavors for both were well balanced and good quality. The lemon tart was nice and tart with a delicious cookie crust. They also take whole cake orders with 2 days notice. Will be going back to try more!

Location: Downtown. Close to UMass. Really convenient place. Service: the woman there is really sweet and nice. She explains everything about her products with a smile. Also, you can ask for things out of the menu. I bet she can do anything and everything she wants. She's a skillful worker! Food: What to say? A gust of sweet fresh air! We need places like this, that dare to offer new products, flavors, textures... Moreover, the pastries in here are not sweet to the point of fearing cavities (something that worries me about regular/ standard US made sweets). Also, I do love taro and pasteis de nata, strongly recommend them! The matcha cake was soft andtender as a piece of heaven.

This place is home to amazing pastries that you won't find just anywhere! The cakes are perfectly balanced and not excessively sweet, making them a treat for everyone. The owner is absolutely delightful and truly passionate about baking—it's heartwarming to see the love and effort she pours into every creation. You can really taste the care in her baked goods!
