The prices of the pastries are reasonable. Pastries were very flaky and enjoyable. Only offsetting part was the set-​up of the store. It is just a giant room filled with boxes and bags filled with boxes of pastries. Not inviting or alluring and definitely distracting.

This bakery is a fantastic and unique addition to the town. There is a very large variety of pastries to choose from and they will give you free samples. The empanadas they sell here are the best I’ve ever had and very different from the empanadas that you would get at a Latin American restaurant. I also love the Spanish bread which is a very sweet bread. The hopi a baboy is another one that I enjoy. It’s a sweet and savory pastry that’s very addictive. The prices are very good. Individual empanadas are $ 1 which is less than what you’d pay for an empanada anywhere else. The boxes of pastries usually run around $ 3 – 4. This place only take cash so make sure to have a few dollars on you.

Amazing chicken empanada– buttery, flakey crust filled with a mix of chicken and veggies. Even better– $ 1.00 for an empanada the size of my hand. There are other Filipino meat filled rolls too, but they have much less meat inside.
There are lots of breads and rolls, both sweet and savory. The cookies look to be brought in, but all of the breads appear fresh. There are also a variety of sausages. Best part– free samples of sweet and savory stuffed breads.

I like this bakery, I love their products, they have a lot of varieties that you can choose from, my personal favorite is the Ensaymada Macapuno, it’s a very delicious bread that has butter, sugar and coconut pieces on top love it and, they also have good hopia which is a bread that has some beans inside. I love Filipino pastries, my gf is Filipino and we go to a lot of great Filipino bakeries.

Absolutely great and fresh Filipino pastries and rolls. As someone else said, stay away from the cookies, we had the same experience, pretty sure they’re acquired from someplace else for sale there. Wish we were closer, we’d be there every week.

I think we are in the age of specialization. Who wants yet another bakery? Well this one is a Filipino bakery, so now I’m interested. They have something called hopia baboy which is a bread with scallions. It is just a scallion flavor– there isn’t that much scallions in it. It was pretty good. It has a bean paste in there too. I’ve also tried the hopia mongo which has black beans. I sampled the hopia macapuno, which is coconut, and the pig pie, which apparently has scallion in it also. It was tasty. The Filipino baked goods are kind of like the Taiwanese crumby moon cake filling. My favorite items so far are hopia baboy and macapuno.

Great Filipino bakery with all the usual suspects, they have hot fresh baked pan de sal available daily and lots of sweets… I used to live down in the Atlantic City area and went several times to a store in Egg Harbor Township called Jade which sells the baked goods from this bakery, which I loved to buy. When I moved here I was pleasantly surprised to learn that I live within walking distance of this place, the source of all the baked goods I used to eat when I lived in AC and had never been to Highland Park nor even heard of it.

Go for Filipino baked goods. Stay away from everything else. My daughter wanted a cookie, but the cookies that were on display all went bad. (Pretty sure the cookies were not baked there.) They should put dates on their packaged goods.

I was stuck in traffic on my way to Princeton for work, and I stopped in totally on a lark. This place is AMAZINGLY GOOD. The woman in charge let me try some pan de sal (fresh out of the oven … UNREAL!!!). I instantly had to buy a dozen. I will be back. Very friendly and legit. Delish.

I was charged with acquiring rolls. And here is a place for rolls. This place is choc-​full with tasty Filipino yum. Fresh, reasonably priced (about $ 2.50 a container) pan de dal (rolls) and ensaymada (sweet rolls) and pan de leche (milk bread). When I walked in the store was overflowing with boxes and bags that were going out for delivery. Undeterred by the massive amounts of food surrounding me, I squished stubbornly to pluck some rolls plus some sweet extras from the ready-​to-​go table. The roll-​requesters were delighted, and I call it a win.

I discovered this bakery by chance while walking around Highland Park. Awesome bakery with great products made fresh. The prices are affordable too. I try to come here whenever I am in the area. The only downside is that this place is cash-​only.
