Celestial Bakery

The owners or recipe has changed because the duck and charsiu were pretty mediocre. The duck isn't as crispy of flavorful as other shops. My usual go to spot down in aurora was out for the month so we got the duck from here and it was disappointing. The duck was cut into large pieces. The legs are usually the best part of the duck but it was just lack luster. Probably good if you want to take the duck and boil it for soup or make congee with. Otherwise, find another location or drive down to Westminster.The only thing I would order from here would be the Chinese donut because that is still made fresh and ready to go.

Super friendly service! The lady that helped us was very sweet! I will definitely return because of her! But not only that, some of the savory pastries we got were delicious. Only downfall is that we did get overcharged on a few items, we bought 24 items but got charged for 30 items. I didn't realized this until we were already 25 mins out on the road and looking over my receipt. The steam buns were very fresh, you can tell they were made the same day and that they were not old. Some of the pastries we got were still warm. I would prefer a little more protein filling in some of the savory puffs.

If you're looking for the perfect flaky not too sweet Hong Kong egg tart, look no further! They have amazing baked goods in general but the egg tarts are the best in town! Love this little spot!

I really wanted to like this place. I am a Chinese immigrant and I am visiting the area for a month. I always try to look for authentic Chinese food. I purchased one of everything that I usually get. The steamed BBQ pork bun was inedible. The filling had a very strange taste. The bread was grainy. The baked BBQ pork bun had different filling and it was better than the steamed one. But it was still not good. The bread was not sweet and fluffy. It was just bland and dry. The wife cakes were the best out of the bunch. Even though they are a bit rustic looking and the skin was not the usual flaky layering. More of a cookie dough wrapping than the traditional wife cakes. But the flavor was good so I did enjoy them. The egg custard was dense and was very jelly like in consists. The crust was good, but I would not get it again. The sesame ball was good except for the lotus seed filling. Not sure what it was, but the flavor was not right on it. The pineapple bun looked good but the bread was not good. It had a very strange texture and the filling looked and tasted very similar to the egg tart filling. Not good at all. The gai mai boa was bland. The bread was dense, not fluffy and sweet like it should be. The filling was ok. But I ended up not eating it all. It didn't taste good together. The bak tong gou was ok. A little thin and overly oily but the flavor was good. The hot dog bun was the best of the bunch items. The bread was a good ratio to the hot dog. But the bread was still a bit bland. But still edible. The cha siu was flavorful but over cooked. So it was dry. The crispy pork was over cooked and dry. The flavor wasn't bad. A little on the salty side. This really was a disappointment. I hate having to leave this review for a small family owned business. But it wouldn't be fair to rave about very mediocre tastes. I didn't want to give just one star. But I couldn't in good conscience leave more than two.

Great little bakery. They bake everything fresh everyday and even carry a few dim sum items along with roast pork, roast duck and bbq pork. Kids love the steamed custard buns and egg tarts every time we come to federal this bakery is a must stop.

When ever I'm in the area, this spot is definitely the place to hit up. When we have visitors from out of town, we usually hit up this spot to grab snacks for our guests on the way back from the airport. Our usual favorites to swallow:SESAME BALLS: Hands down, this is our favorite thing here. We usually call ahead and order it by the dozen so that they are hot and fresh. They are perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. EGG TARTS: great flavors and the pastry is light and fluffy. I usually pick up other thing like the steamed sponge cake, pork buns or whatever else I'm in the middle when I go to the counter. I've been pretty pleased with everything they put out. Definitely peep them out.

This place is still perfect for a quick pick-me-up. If you're craving a specific dim sum dish or Chinese baked good, this is where to go get it.Since it was never a sit-down place anyway, this business is operating pretty much the same as it was before. They just added some plexiglass and tape on the floor to mark how far to stand in line. They'll ask you for your order and you just take it with you in a box.I come here for my classic favorites -- the cha siu bao (BBQ Pork Bun) and dan tat (egg tart). This bakery was actually recommended to me for its fresh BBQ pork cuts, so you know that's always gonna be a good choice. The dan tat is so soft and sweet and fluffy, you'll probably want to order more than just one even though they come in quite a decent size.The only thing I wish I did was reheat the goods before devouring them. I don't know if it would have been warm and fresh had I come here first thing in the morning, like it is in Hong Kong. But either way, still a great pick-me-up!

Went there for 2 things. Egg custard and sesame balls. The egg custard crust was very flaky, which was good. But the custard was probably the smallest I've seen. It's about half of the size of the ones in NYC, Calif or my hometown of Texas. The sesame ball, I thought it had the filling of red beans, but due to language barrier with the owner, I couldn't understand her well. Anyway, it's not red beans, but it's the other filling of yellow in color. I think it's the mung bean?I heated both in the toaster oven to refresh the taste and texture. They tasted fine, but not quite up to my expectation.

Đừng bao giờ đến tiệm này mua há cảo và các loại bánh ở đây vì bánh không có chất lượng ăn rất là hôi dầu, chuyên bán những đồ gần như thiu cũ ăn không được, tốn tiền vô ích.

I suspect that the food sold at this store has been sitting for several days. These white sugar cakes are all moldy less than 24 hours since I purchased them from the store. My friends and I will never visit again.
