Update: After going to get my slice of cake, I took a bite and had to come update the review!
Happy about the mixup because I now got to try how good this sesame one was. It’s not too sweet and has a surprisingly good little crunch to it (sesame seeds). Definitely love the fluffiness and flavors in this cake. I will be coming back to try more flavors… The birthday slice was a fun little one to try. A nice simple cake that isn’t too sweet, but still tasty!
The woman at the front was so kind and helpful and had such a cheery attitude. Not to mention, she also added in an extra cake because today was the 1 year anniversary of the shop! Congrats! Will be back!
I went in with no clue and asked for any recommendations. She was super sweet and recommended the black sesame slice. I wasn’t able to eat the cake and left it aside for a few hours. I also think she may have given me the wrong one and got passion fruit instead, but no complaints! It was so delicious! After eating it I think these slices are definitely worth the price. The cake was very soft and not at all dry. The flavors went very well together and not too sweet. Will come back and try other flavors! Def recommend getting a coffee next door and pairing it with a slice to eat under...
Read moreI highly, highly recommend checking this small cake shop out if you’re in Chinatown. Despite the name they also have baked goods that are just as beautiful (and delicious) as their cakes. There are some small cakes you can pick up if you are in a rush, but they need about a week in advance for anything custom. The desserts are on the pricey side, but you are paying for quality ingredients and intricately decorated pastries. If you have a mobility aid the door is very narrow and swings outward. There are limited chairs and tables outside. The hours are limited so check before coming. If there’s one thing you should get it’s the espresso chip shortbread. It’s not as asthetic as the other pastries, but it is so good! I’m definitely coming back just for that. There’s metered parking on the street and...
Read moreI cannot believe it's taken me this long to review Flouring LA! Hands down one of the cutest bakeries of all time and 10 out of 10 delicious! Amaaazing flavor combinations that change seasonally, the owner is a Chinese-Latina LA native with amazing taste! Her most popular flavors are the black sesame cake slices and Ube. All her baked goods pair extremely well with the coffee you can get next door and I love the shortbread cookies with the coffee. My partner and I have visited a handful of times so our tips are: get there early because they sell out, parking is usually street, grab a coffee from next door and order 3-6 cake slices and cookies to split and take home. Its great for couples or pairs on a lazy weekend and you can migrate over to Chinatown when your done eating to pickup some...
