Pink Elephant Bakery

There are so many delicious baked goods to choose from at a great price! I picked out so many treats, including pan dulce, little cakes, and honestly stuff I don't know the name of they just looked tasty. Every one was a sweet treat and went well with my morning coffee. Would highly recommend if you're in the area to drop by.Service was easy, just pointed to the ones I wanted and got them right away to go. No seating inside.

Came here on a Wednesday afternoon for my boyfriend's birthday and there was no line. The bakery was pretty big and everything looked delicious! There were 3 types of tres leche cake to choose from so we picked the caramel tres leche cake and a cream cheese bun. The tres leche cake was one of the best I've ever had and I normally don't like tres leche! It was super sweet and moist with the perfect amount of frosting and caramel drizzle. The cream cheese bun was a bit disappointing as it wasn't actually cream cheese but a lighter version of whipped cream? The bread was also pretty dry and wasn't warmed up. Overall, I would definitely recommend the tres leche cake and would come back to try the other flavors!

Ordered tres leches cake for my boyfriend. He loved it. Very well made and tasty!!. Milk was oozing out the bottom it was so full!

I live in Mountain View and while there are certainly a couple panderias in the Mountain View/Sunnyvale area, San Jose is where it's at for the best in Mexican pastries in the South Bay. Pink Elephant is among a number of spots in East San Jose that serve top notch pan dulce and a variety of other Mexican sweets. Their tres leches cake (in multiple flavors by the way) is the best that I've had in the area hands down. Although Pink Elephant is further away than the closest panderia to my place, I am willing to go the extra mile (no pun intended) for better quality Mexican sweets.

Went to go get tres leches and it did not disappoint. Service was very friendly and quick. Place was quiet and had huge variety of different Mexican pasties!

I'm not very familiar with East San Jose, but I found out about this bakery through a friend who lives in the area.The taste of Pink Elephant's pastries are just as good as they look. I bought a variety of pan dulce, a custard roll cake, and a coffee cake.Very reasonable pricing for their baked goods! I got 6 items for around $12.My favorite was the custard roll. It's the perfect item for tea time. A yellow cake with a fluffy cream filling. You can tell that the workers here put in a lot of care into making each item. That's why everything looks so appetizing. The servers are kind. No seating inside.

Easy to order through their website for future pick up. Didn't receive a confirmation email right away.. got it the day before but I had called to confirm they got my order as well. Person on the phone was pleasant. Picked up the cake and it was as pictured, but I had requested they write my daughter's name in it and I wasn't impressed with how it was written. It was pretty basic handwriting and not in cursive like most cakes. Cake was decent. I would order again but not with writing...

Wonderful cakes and baked items. The tres leches cake is scrumptious and so fairly priced. The bakery added beautiful artwork and writing for no additional cost. I will absolutely be choosing cakes from here in the future

Ordered a fresh strawberry tres leches cake a day before pickup. It was $59 for an 8" round cake but it looked like a 12" round cake! There were about 10 adults and 6 kids and we only finished half the cake. The cake was very good and not too sweet. Unfortunately, they didn't have a proper box for the cake and had to staple some boxes together and one part of the box was a bit soggy from the trek from SJ to San Mateo. I had to carefully place it in a big plastic bag to bring it to Pacifica, which is where the pic was taken. My friend, whom hates tres leches cake and whose wife loves tres leches cakes, actually liked this one. I think this says a lot! I'd definitely come back for their tres leches cake.When you place your order, you can text them pictures of the cake design you're looking for and they'll tell you if it's possible or not. I ended up choosing a similar design to a fellow Yelper's pic just for convenience. It turned out as expected and birthday girl thought it was beautiful. Their chocoflan cake was very meh...not like Mexico Bakery's. Would pass on that. Also tried their horchata pudding and caramel pudding, which were more like gelatin. These were both good and not too sweet. Just don't expect pudding. Wouldn't mind getting these again but would opt to try something different if I'm in the area again.

The bakery ladies were busy making sure we were in and out! Great service and they have some beautiful tres leches cakes
