Beautiful cake and not to mention so good. My whole family loved it. The frosting is soft and the bread of the cake is spongey. Decoration speaks for itself it's very pretty

If you're looking for a local Asian Bakery, this is the place to stop by. I was tasked with a last minute cake duty and thankfully they offer last minute (1 day) before orders. I placed an order for a Strawberry cake. It turned out great as it's not too sweet and was garnished with fresh strawberries.

I was very disappointed with Pink Box Bakery Cafe 粉红屋烘焙坊. The day I arrived in Squirrel Hill, I came to buy a taro moon cake for $3.00. It tasted stale. The only part with purple color was the tip of the shell. I can see grease soaked the wax paper on the bottom of the cake. Not sure how long it sat there on the shelf. So, I went back next morning to see if they have fresher ones on the shelves. I saw the one I left the night before. Ahhh... moon cakes must be shelf stable. Not! Each baked goods should have date time stamps. I felt cheated. Pink Box Bakery is the only Chinese bakery in Squirrel Hill. I think I'll go to Korean or French Bakery on my next visit.

Good quality with lots of classic chinese bakery items. The bread always tastes fresh to me, always super soft and smells incredible. I tried their cotton cheese cake for the first time and was very impressed with how flavorful and soft it was! Of course it also wasn't too sweet. Their savory breads are packed with flavor as well. If you know what you want from here, you'll likely leave pretty satisfied.

Coconut goodness. I was having one of those I need to satisfy my mom's sweet tooth Sundays with something that screams delicious... stopped in and picked up a packaged freshly baked sweet bread. It was soft and tasty. Wish photography did justice on flavor but I just chose a buttercream sliced coconut bread and a few nutty ones. Wish I could bake to this type of perfection, until then I'll continue shopping here. Thank you.

I always love a good Asian bakery, and this one was no exception. We grabbed a number of filled buns ranging from savory to sweet, and everything we tried was delicious. The space itself would probably benefit from a light renovation, but the service was friendly and the food was excellent quality. Would definitely come back here next time I'm in Pittsburgh again.

Love this bakery! Really reminds me of my childhood when we would always get breakfast at a Chinese bakery cafe. The pastries are all delicious and authentic. They are very reasonably priced as well. We talked to a guy who may have been the owner while we were there and the mooncakes are very authentic and similar to the ones his mom would make back in Taiwan. The moon cakes were basically all sold out on Mid Autumn Festival Day. They have milk bread here, lots of pineapple bun varieties, pork floss bread, egg tarts, and sponge cakes. It also smells heavenly in here. Definitely check it out for some Chinese pastries and bread!

Finally went here the first time for an after dinner treat! From a Western perspective, the flavors are generally lighter and less rich/sweet than I'm used to. More custard, bean, milky flavors vs. the heavy chocolate and butter that you see in American baked goods. I feel like I would really enjoy a lot of the buns for a tea or breakfast treat.One other thing that's a little different to me, but I liked, was how everything is individually packaged and you can pick out items yourself. It was nice to be able to look at everything closely, as opposed to many bakeries where the food is all in a display case and staff select for you.I am excited to come back to try more items and also order for breakfast.
