Impressive selection

How nice is it to be able to look at a bakery case and select any item you want because it’s all vegan? Such a rare occurrence for us. I love coming here before a birthday party to grab a vegan treat to bring. They also have bulk containers of cookie varieties that are perfect for a party offering.

I love that they also have vegan tamales you can buy. We’ve been coming here almost weekly for a treat. I was warned that some of the baked items are drier than we’re used to in the US, but everything still tastes amazing to me.

Yum!

Yummy pan dulce, pastries, and tamales. Really grateful that this place exists and that they make a lot of my childhood favorites.

Great

-Challah bread - great 9/10, could be a little more moist
-apricot Danish - good 7/10, could have used more custard and a sugar glaze on the dough part
-Tres leches cake - great 9/10
-banana custard tart - very good 8/10 but a little heavy on the banana
-apple turnover - great 9/10

Even uses sugar not refined with animal bone char!

Excellent

I love this place, it’s got a huge variety of fresh baked goods, including separately packaged gluten-free items for those GF folks. Get the tamales, get the cookies, get everything. We love to pop in before a hike or a roadtrip for some snacks to enjoy.

Definitely worth it

My mom is Mexican not vegan and can tell if pastries do not have milk or eggs and is super picky and usually does not like vegan deserts . She absolutely loved this place and said it tastes like regular Mexican pastries and cakes . I Love the conchas , tres leches cake , bolillo with jalapeño and cheese , cookies ect .

Pros: A lot of options , Good food , Customer service

Cons: Small parking structure

Not just pastries!

Not only were we able to get rolls for breakfast, but we also got some savory empanadas for lunch and cookies for dessert. Want to try the tamales next. They have so many options, and everything is delicious!

Pros: Many options, Everything is vegan!, Fair pricing

Legit bakery

I was in the area and decided to give this spot a taste test. From the looks of it, this bakery looks like a multi generational family owned bakery. They have a commercial sized oven that’s looks legit and the place smells great. Lots of choices to choose from. We had the banana cream pie, tamales and the rugelach. The pastries were not overly sweetened and tasted nice and fresh. The bean and green chili tamale was solid and the masa had great flavor.
I’ll definitely be back to sample some more of the baked goods!

Amazing treats and more!

Everything I have ever had here is delicious. Conchas, cookies, pies and all the treats are amazing. And the tamales and empanadas are amazing too. Everything is always delicious and fresh and reasonably priced. And there is easy parking! Also, don't skip the pre-packaged cookies. They have these amazing flaky ones that are addicting!

Pros: Great selection of treats, Savory and sweet foods, Easy parking

Glad to discover

Cookies and empanadas. Potato, the mushroom and apple empanadas were good. Ginger cookie my favorite. If you want Tamales come early or they sell out.
They also make birthday cakes.

Pros: ALL vegan, Friendly people

Cons: All have some type of oil/vegan shortening

Amazing, Don’t miss out!

I LOVE this place so much. It’s in an unassuming little strip next to a Thai restaurant, but the things they make are all top quality. They have cream cheese danishes, eclairs, tarts, tiramisu, cookies, concha, tamales, and more. They recently started offering cheesecake and I ran over as soon as I heard. It is incredible. It is the first plant based cheesecake I’ve tried that tastes exactly like the stuff I remember from when I ate dairy. The shop is run by a small family and they are always so sweet. There’s nothing I wouldn’t recommend here.

Pros: Delicious , Cheesecake and tiramisu!, Local small business

Amazing vegan dessert & snacks!!

I go here on my way home from work and love the potato empanadas, chocolate cake, banana crème pie, and chocolate chip muffins! The cookies I tried have been okay, but the above items are my absolute favorites here.

So good

Don’t sleep on this place! They just added vegan cheesecake and it’s bomb. Their danishes are amazing too, as are the fruit tarts/pies. It’s family-run and most everything is fab! The brownies and cookies are my least fave.

Pros: All vegan, Inexpensive

I want to love it...

Went in for the 1st time and was very excited to spend some money and support a local vegan Mexican bakery! But, the kids of the owners made it seem like we were a huge inconvenience. We bought our stuff and ordered a Rosca then drove home and all said - welp that was a bummer.

I won't give anyone my business just because. I want to leave there feeling appreciated. It's a two way street. It's LA as well, I can go to 20 other vegan bakeries within driving distance or just save the money and stay home.

ZERO vibe in there. Almost like we were a bother.

Will take alot to get us or my clients back.

Pros: 100% vegan, Tastes great

Cons: Attitudes were terrible, Tight parking lot

I’m sorry to hear that was your experience. I’ve been there probably 40+ times and haven’t ever felt any bad energy from the family that owns and works there. Sometimes Maria has a hard time hearing with all the ovens and machines wizzing behind her. And I disagree about being able to go to many nearby places because this is one of a kind.

Colorful Conchas

It was hard to choose because everything looked good, but I picked a concha. It was fluffy and not too sweet.

Pros: all vegan, sweet and savory choices

Excellent Opportunity to Try Mexican Desserts

I live near many Mexican bakeries but have never had an opportunity to try anything before visiting Toluca. A great selection of vegan pastries, cakes, and cookies, including a section for gluten-free treats. Enjoyed the GF Mexican wedding cookies, blueberry Danish, and Tres Leches cake.

Pros: Vegan Mexican desserts, Gluten-free options, Friendly staff
