BiBi Bakery & Cafe - San Jose

Thankful for VEGAN CAKE!! :)I was scrambling to find a vegan friendly cake for a work meeting. Generally, the places I found were either expensive or inaccessible. A lot of the bakeries around were pre-order days in advance, closed on Mondays, or $150 a cake! That's insane!!I found Bibi right as I was losing all hope. I called and they were so nice and accommodating. I ordered a strawberry vegan cake Sunday morning, and went to pick it up Monday before my meeting.It's a cute little shop, with tons of pastries in the displays. The vegan cake was a hit, my coworker loved it, which was all I was praying for honestly lolI also ordered a mango mousse cake for everyone else, it was also well loved.Thank you BiBi for being Vegan Friendly :) !!

Had the Passion Fruit cake, Burnt Almond cake and Pistachio cake.The cake layers were the same in all 3 cake slices. Soft layers. The difference is the cream or mousse flavors.Best pistachio cake I've ever had. The mousse was very delicate with hint of pistachio flavor. Top of slice was prinkled with crushed pistachios. Not too sweet. Passion Fruit had the tangy sweet taste. A lot more sweet than the pistachio. Comparable to lemon flavor but not as sour as lemon.Burnt Almond was just ok. More like lightly toasted slices of almond than burnt. The almond slices cover the outside of the cake. There's a layer of vanilla mousse/cream in between the cake layers. Pretty pricey for about $7 a slice. They have different cookies and lots of other cakes to choose from. Cakes are sold in slices or as a whole cake. They also have guava and tiramisu cakes which I want to try next time.

When you first enter, there's the beautiful display case of cakes -- look to your left for hidden gems: cookies. We enjoyed the mango cake and napoleon, but instead of celebration treats, I want to highlight the cookies that pair perfectly with cozy tea on a cold morning.As a reference, if cakes are 100% sweetness level, these cookies are 15-25% sweet.Ali was friendly and considerate in selecting and recommending a variety of cookies. His service is the best I've ever received at a bakery :)My favorites were the apricot and raspberry butter cookies that have wonderful airy crumb, the delicately thin raisin cookie, the unique textured almond cookie, and the sugar twist cookie (didn't note the exact name).

I have been ordering cakes off and on over the years from this bakery. Their cakes and pastries are spot on. They're very delicious. Their employees and bakers are genuinely nice. It's easy to work with them to order any of their specialty cakes. I like going there in the morning when they have a lot of available pastries. I typically order the cakes in advance and pick it up after work.

If you're looking for little delights that make your mouth smile, BiBi Bakery is the place to go. This bakery offers a range of Persian baked goods from cookies to pastries to cakes.I walked in on an early afternoon. The bakery was refreshingly cool when I stepped in from the hot outdoors. There were displays of gorgeous cakes in front, and rows of cookies on the left. I was in the mood for some small treats so I looked through the cookies and pastries and settled on a half dozen tea cookies and a half dozen almond cookies. I also threw in an almond croissant for good measure.The associate was attentive and gathered my dozen cookies and pastry into a box with finesse. And within five minutes, I was out the door ready to enjoy my food.The tea cookies were light and delicate, hinting at butter just enough to tease my tongue. Each bite was a soft joy to sink my teeth into. In contrast, the almond cookies were bold. These cookies were sure to let you know all the sweet nuttiness they were made of. Marzipan is what I thought of when I bit into these petite delights. Fluffy and sweet was the almond croissant too.These cookies and pastry were a favorite of mine, and I can't wait to come back to BiBi Bakery for more.

Cute bakery/cafe. The cakes and the baked goods here are delicious. The cakes are moist and flavorful, whether it's their princess or chocolate or mango mousse or raspberry cake; all flavors are unique and I've enjoyed everything I've gotten so far. Not too sweet. I'll consider getting a birthday cake from here in the future for sure! Store workers are all friendly in my experience. Located in a plaza with plenty of parking spots as well.

I've tried a few different items from BiBi Bakery... pastries, an almond mille-feuille, mango roulade... but my favorite so far is the princess cake. They really do everything well here but, for me, that cake really is above and beyond. Fresh, airy and delicious. Really outstanding.The staff is very kind and helpful and parking is easy as well. I look forward to trying their pistachio mousse cake, strawberry mousse cake and some of the Persian cookies in the future. I've no doubt that they're all terrific.

My SO wanted to stop by this quaint bakery to get me a birthday cake. He got the mango mousse cake and it is so beautiful, I loved the way they decorated the cake and it was so soft, fluffy and not sweet--which is my ideal taste for desserts. I ate practically a 1/3rd of the cake haha.Some friends also got some cookies and those were tasty as well. They had nice textures and consistencies and were lightly flavored since I am someone that typically avoids cookies.

Very lovely bakery. Delicious food items and the mocha is SO good! Cashier was very nice, professional, and fast. As for the interior, such an elegant design and style. Absolutely loved it. I am a student at SJSU, so I will definitely be coming here more often.

The service was excellent, and they offered incredibly delicious treats along with a variety of coffees and teas.While passing by on my way to Starbucks, I noticed this place and found it intriguing, so I decided to give it a try instead.I was planning on getting something but I was interested in whether they had Wi-Fi available before deciding to stay and work here. The staff was chill and informed me that I could use their Wi-Fi without making a purchase, which I thought was very accommodating of them, as many places often require a purchase first.I got the chocolate croissant heated ($4.99), which was wonderfully flaky with a rich chocolate flavor.I will be returning to try more of their other items!
