Cake Studio Panaderia Mexicana — Restaurant in Poulsbo

I want to give a major shout out to Angela, her mom, and the entire team at Cake Studio Panaderia Mexicana off of Viking Way in Poulsbo. They went above and beyond to help me put my Valentine's Day plan into action and create an incredible memorable experience for my wife that I am very grateful for.

This year I got a head start on Valentine's Day and set a plan in motion a few weeks back. I reached out to our local Mexican panaderia in Poulsbo, to see if they could help me craft a bouquet of flowers filled with fresh Mexican conchas. If you don't know what a concha is, that's okay. It's a sweet bread that is perfect with coffee. My wife loves them so much she even has earrings of them.

Angela at Cake Studios Panaderia, was just as excited as I was to put this idea in motion. The morning of Valentine's Day, I dropped off several bouquets that she and her mom then crafted with freshly made conches tailored to color match from their bakery into this outstanding concha flower arrangement. My wife had no idea what I was bringing back to her and she kept her eyes closed and when she opened them the surprise was fantastic. I'm happy I remembered capture on camera.

Thank you Angela and the amazing team at Cake Studio Panaderia Mexicana for making such a delightful Valentine's...

I always like trying newer places to give everyone some business, but I think the Cake Studio in Poulsbo is a true gem. I normally come here to get some authentic Mexican bread and Tres Leches Cake, which is pretty good by itself, but today I was surprised to see tamales being advertised. I decided to pick some up to give them a try and I am really glad I did. These are some of, if not the best tamales I've had in Washington. I would even venture to say that they are some of best I've had in the States. Everything about the tamales was great. The masa was moist, very flavorful and were properly steamed. The stuffing was also extremely flavorful with a little spice, and the size of the tamales were also perfect. Normally people will understuff tamales and over add masa to save money, but these were well proportioned and dense. It is easy to tell that that this was a family recipe and not just a generic recipe. If you want to try really good tamales or some great Mexican bread, give this place a try. This will now be one of my normal...

We came in the day after Three Kings day so understandably variety wasn’t all there. That said, the staff was very kind and explained that most of their goodies were not available due to the previous day’s holiday. First, the place looked clean and inviting, second, we were greeted warmly, and finally (but most importantly) the baked goods they did have were AMAZING! I was happy about the authenticity of the food and ended up indulging way more than planned! The Chocoflan was perfect and the Tres Leches with sweet peaches was an absolute treat! I can’t wait to try the rest of their menu!
