Pashina Pastry

I've visited Pashina Bakery twice in the last year, on two separate visits to see family in San Antonio. I used to live in this neighborhood, so when we were driving down Hildebrand and saw the sign for Pashina, I may have shouted: "Stop!" But you don't happen upon a Ukrainian bakery in Texas everyday! Pashina is run by Olena Ramanko, whose family was displaced from the Kherson region of Ukraine after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The bakery sells lots of Ukrainian cakes, dumplings, pastries, and more! The service is lovely, and everything they sell is made by hand with care. The bakery is small (but cute), so grab a few things to go and share them with friends and family. Pashina is a special business - you can support them and learn about a cuisine that isn't easy to find and try in Texas! Stop next time you're driving by!

I've often passed by this bakery, and finally, I found myself there on a morning with an empty stomach. I ordered an apricot pastry, a cabbage pastry similar to a kolache, and a layered cake with a vanilla custard-like filling. The pastries were light, not overly sweet, and topped with fresh fruit. The cabbage pastry had a savory taste with subtle seasonings that complemented the veggies perfectly. However, my absolute favorite was the layered cake. What I appreciated most was that nothing was overly sweet, unlike typical American desserts. This allowed me to savor each bite.I'll definitely return. What stood out was the pleasant sight of the owner and her mother enjoying each other's company. It made me wish we took more time to do that in America. Let's slow down and be present.

10/10 on the sausage roll. Would absolutely get again. Had to beg my gf for another bite because we loved it so much. In fact I'd get a box of those for my friends. She seems to work very hard & id like for her shop to continue being around.Hopefully I can try one of the cake slices next time!

This is a tiny little gem of a bakery in the middle of Olmos park! Everything is homemade. Their pastries are flaky and not heavy. Had their kalache and sweet danish looking things that blew me away. I will take photos next time. I ate them so fast from the box that photos were completed forgotten.

19 Apr 2023Pashina has taken over the space that was Bexar Kolaches. Very similar offerings: Kolaches sweet and savory, buns stuffed with ham and cheese, sausage and jalapeños. There was an egg-type one, too. Lady from the Ukraine greets you. A man (I'm thinking American) is also there. He does a lot of the talking. They did ask us what we would want to see them offer. We suggested cookies. Yeah, that's all we had for them. If you buy five items, you get the sixth one free. Not bad. Go there.

Authentic, made-from-scratch Ukrainian food. My favorite is the honey cake (Medovik) and chebureki (meat empanadas). These two transport me back to my childhood--so good, and the taste is exactly like back home. Highly recommend!!

Discovered this craft bakery this morning and had a delicious breakfast and enjoyed a vanilla cream danish, a ham & cheese perogi and a chicken & cheese turnover. There is a honey cake that I want to try next. The owners are from Ukraine and are very nice. A must try and you'll come back.

No frills but delicious sausage rolls, meat and fruit kolaches, Ukrainian meatballs and dumplings, cakes. Freshly made - I get a fix once a week or so. Hopefully the Olmos Park and Monte Vista communities patronize and support so that they can grow. Took an assortment of items to a work function and all were gone in minutes!

the best bakery in San Antonio) there are pastries and cakes to order. Everything is fresh and very tasty. Best of the best

Amazing food. I love the people there, and incredible desserts. Thank you for your business. Will definitely be back
