Bu Pastry Bar

Food and drinks were delicious! The canele was nicely carmalized on the outside and eggy and moist inside. Definitely recommend the matcha!! It’s hand whisked and they don’t skimp at all. Super excited that another bakery shop has opened up in the Arcade :)

The food was just okay—nothing particularly memorable. It tasted more like a simple egg waffle cake, and the ingredients didn’t feel very high quality.

Best bakery cafe in town! Everything freshly baked. To me the Madeleines and Caneles are perfection. Madeleines are buttery, slightly crisp on the edge and soft inside. Do not expect you’ll get a moist cake, this type of travel cake is suppose to be in the middle of cookie and cake and pair with drinks. Matcha is excellent. I ordered another one right after I finished.

Love love love the dessert & their drinks!! I haven’t been able to find a spot that really hits, but I love the texture of every single pastries they make. With much love & effort, would definitely come back here for more.

Matcha Red Bean Dacquoise 4/5: filling is excellent, matcha is thick and red bean paste not too sweet. The cake itself is soft and fluffy, but I can’t really taste the nutty almond flavor I was looking for in a dacquoise, and it lacks the crunch on the outer shell which I’ve had at other places. Guava Passion Madeline 2.5/5: expected some kind of jam filling, but it tasted like plain madeline soaked in guava/passion fruit syrup. That plus the frosting on top makes it way too sweet. Also lacks the slightly crispy m/hard exterior which I prefer in these kind of French pastries. I appreciate the Asian inspired flavors but they didn’t nail the texture on bakes for me. Will come back to try the canele and matcha next time.
