Customer Reviews
- Excellent pastries: Recommend their Basque Cheesecake which is not too sweet but very tasty with some char. I also tried the Coconut Pandan Cake, which is very well presented and not too sweet. It’s hard to describe the flavor, but it’s just like a typical vanilla, sponge cake that isn’t too sweet - Pastries are reasonable price for quality, about 8-10 dollars per larger pastry and 3-5 dollars for smaller pastries - Really kind and hard working staff; I don’t love how the main pastries are in a different location that you order, as it makes it hard to choose, but I will not complain.
Cozy bakery serving up so many Asian desserts, drinks, and snacks! Food: - Foi Thong Coconut Cake ($7.95) Layers of pandan chiffon cake layered with coconut cream (with real coconut slices) and topped with foi thong. Awesome balance of sweetness and textures. - Ube Basque Cheesecake ($8.95) Creamy, nostalgic cheesecake brimming with ube flavor! Loved this - Taro Puff I LOVE all things taro, and this pastry delivered. Crispy exterior encasing a sweet, smooth taro paste. Service: - The workers are so welcoming and friendly. Makes each visit feel like a warm hug. Interior: - Cozy, warm, and on the smaller side. Highly recommend this place!
I had the pandan coconut cake with salted egg on top. It tastes good and reminds me of another vietnamese dessert. The egg seems more like just a fancy decoration imo, it didn't make any difference to the cake. I'd just get the regular cake next time. The mango matcha is pretty good and the vietnamese coffee is just okay. I like that they mix both natural and artificial flavoring for a nice balance - for both the drinks and the cake.
I ordered a custom pig-themed cake for my daughter, who absolutely loves pigs, and Maprang bakery did an amazing job! The design was adorable—perfectly crafted with so much attention to detail. My daughter was thrilled the moment she saw it. Even better, the cake wasn’t just cute—it was delicious. Moist, flavorful, and not overly sweet. Everyone at the celebration loved it. Thank you to the bakery for making our day extra special. Highly recommend for both creativity and great taste! 🎂🐷💖
What a wonderful addition to Union square!! There are so many drink and quick bite options. The cakes look incredible and the one I ordered, Opera, was insanely good. The lattes & everything were made perfectly. I also need to come back and try a breakfast sandwich. Staff was delightful and ambience was lovely. Definitely recommend!
