My favorites are bomb bread (soufflé), pepper pancakes, and radish pancakes. If you want to buy holiday shopping, go early as they are often sold out by noon. They also sell drinks and light meals, but I haven’t tried them.

For savory breads, I recommend the Black Pepper Pork Pastry, QQ Bun, Curry Beef, and Dried Pork Roll. Most of their other breads, and sweet breads especially, nowadays have crept up in price and aren't really worth buying. On many unlucky occasions the cashiers accidentally upcharge me for some items, adding a few extra dollars to my total.

I felt too devastated as I had seen the reviews and went to this particular store also I had highlighted told them multiple times that I need mongo cake with mango cream, but got white cream of vanilla taste.

Their buns are good and tasty, however, the sweet buns are too sweet for my taste. The warm pork bun was super tasty, loved it very much. Filling is not the most abundant though. Friendly staff.

I was eager to try the Okinawa milk tea from L'epi D'or Bakery as I love the floral taste of a good Okinawa milk tea. This drink certainly delivered the distinctive flavor I was craving. My only feedback would be that the sweetness was a tad overpowering for my preferences and the boba pearls were on the firmer side, requiring some extra chewing. Also, I wish L'epi D'or Bakery had more drink options, as I was looking forward to trying a new kind of matcha drink, but the selections were quite limited. Overall though, I'd recommend this if you enjoy sweet drinks and Okinawa-style milk tea.

Requested for taro pudding, but they never added it in the cake. This was from last year, but I thought I would share my experience.

Really good cake, not too sweet which is perfecto.

My first time here, this store did not leave a good impression. The trays to pick up pastries were so dirty — had to go through four in the stack before I came across a decently-clean one; all the others had liquid stains or crumbs. Do not get those “sticks” in the warmer by the register. I got a pineapple stick and that thing was stale as haaaale. Don’t be deceived by the package they put their pastries in that says “freshly baked.” That thing was “freshly baked” DAYS ago. Also tried a chocolate bun. That was also very hard, and I had to toss it. Was a waste a money :(((

Like many other reviewers have mentioned, the quality of the food and drinks are very different than just a few years back. This bakery has been around for ages in Cupertino, maybe they have changed hands? new bakers? Anyway, the bread just look weird and taste weird. The very expensive moo cakes and pastries look amateurish and poor quality. Not worth it,

Bought dirty milk today with fresh cream strawberry cake. Dirty milk is as bad as it sounds. It's literally brown sugar,milk with Boba- rip off $6. About the cake- old cake with cream. Sponge was chewy and old to taste. It was embarrassing to gift this and hear back this review from Birthday boy. Lepidor once a great baker is now only about money and less quality.
Noticed this small bakery pop up on my Yelp randomly and decided to visit since I was already in the area. It looks like it's a small business/independently owned bakery which is awesome and they offered a variety of traditional Asian baked goods and snacks. I originally wanted to get their fan tuan (to compare to another one I had earlier in the day), but the girl at the register told me they tend to sell out of those really early since they're only available on the weekends. I also wanted their curry beef horn, but it was also sold out. So I ended up picking up the curry beef bun and the black pepper pork bun instead. The black pepper pork bun was huge and very dense. I enjoyed the flaky-ness of the pastry and that it was still hot even though it was just sitting in the warmer. Unfortunately, the meat filling was extremely salty to the point where I was unable to finish after eating about half of it. The flavor was there, but it was just too salty. The curry beef bun was really good though and I liked that they included enough of the meat inside. I'll definitely be back to try out some of their other goodies. Glad I was able to stop by on a whim!

I ordered my wedding cake from Judy 25 years ago and I ordered another one for my 25th anniversary. I love my cake! The cake is beautiful and of course very delicious.

I had a long time ( maybe over 2-3 years) that I did not come over here. Last week I decide to buy some bread here. I found it had a less choice and none of hot Taiwanese street food was available. All gone. What happen to this bakery? Their bread tasted all different now with a strange tastes! I bought a loaf of healthy bread, machi red bean bao, pork floss bao...... they all tasted very bad. It felt that maybe cheap flour or cheap milk power. I really hate to see this bakery went down like this. They used to be really great. It is so disappointed!
