Van Bakery was the best place for weeding cake ! We had a beautiful wedding cake and professional service definitely will be referring to friends and families! Thank so much Van Bakery Westminster
Great little Vietnamese bakery that offers alot of pastries and other food items. The coffee is straight gas, strong, to the point, and will wake you up and the bao was delicious to pick up. Also picked up bánh phu thê and was not disappointed for eating the sweet treat. Worth a visit if you're in the mood for Vietnamese baked goods.
I stop by this bakery every time I'm in Anaheim. Got my favorite snacks to bring home: dried baby squids, beef jerky, and some other Vietnamese goodies. Price is a little higher than other places and parking is terrible, always crazy and crowded. Other than that, it's such a clean and organized store, customer service could have been better.

We usually come here during lunar new year but this time we got a birthday cake for our nephew. His mom got her wedding cake and loved the strawberry cake.
We were going to get just a slice as a "smash cake" but they had several sizes. So we went with the smallest mini cake. It's very basic decoration with either blue, pink, white, or yellow icing. Since he's a boy, I wanted blue but it turns out blue is blue berry flavor. To get strawberry, it had to be pink.
Depending on the season and holiday, you'll find other pastries throughout the store. This time around it's endless moon cakes! I love that you can get a single one and try different flavors instead of getting the ones in the box of four.
Luckily this place was not crowded because places in OC don't seem to follow COVID procedures. No one does the social distance and people touch the packages and put them back. I'm not proud of how viet business are careless. You can argue that it's like a grocery store but this is a bakery. For that, I knocked down a star.
However, the baby loved the cake. Inside was chocolate cake with strawberries. It's light, fluffy, and not too sweet.
Parking here is atrocious. You're better off parking far and walking to save your sanity and becareful as a pedestrian because people don't look.

Ordered an 8 inch moka cake for pickup at 6, but then had to change it to noon, and they were able to make it happen! The cake itself was perfectly light and fluffy. Not too sweet. I think the cream to cake ratio was a bit high for me. I would have preferred more actual cake than buttercream. The Harbor Blvd. Vans bakery store definitely puts less cream
Speaking of buttercream, I would recommend letting the cake sit out at room temp for a bit before slicing and eating. We ate it straight out of the fridge and the cream was a solid mass. Couldn't eat more than a few bites of it because it was so heavy. But after we let it warm up, the cream got... creamier, the moka flavor came through and it became edible. It was surprisingly salty (?) with a bit of sweetness and coffee. Melted in the mouth. Paired with the vanilla cake and whipped cream flowers, it was so good. Still very rich and felt like I had to take a nap afterward.
I also tried some of their banh baos on an impulse. As delicious as the cake was, these were the highlight. I came back the next day, just to buy a few more. The bun is sweet and fluffy, and the pork filling has an awesome mixture of textures (even has a quail egg!).
I love the atmosphere and location of this store. The lady helping us with the cake was super nice. It's also surrounded by many other Vietnamese stores, so it's a one stop plaza for Asian groceries and food. For future cakes, I would visit the Vans bakery on Harbor Blvd, but I am definitely coming back for those baos...
This fruit tart was so good I had to stop what I was doing and leave a review! I usually don’t even LIKE fruit tarts that much but I’m telling you this was SO good!!! The fruit was sweet and the custard had an excellent flavor!
Not many of the Vietnamese bakeries label what's in their food and I have an egg allergy so due to the language barrier at most places I can't take a chance eating things. HOWEVER, everything here is labeled, all the ingredients, in English! The things I did get like the sticky rice and coconut patties were very good. The staff is also very nice and not dismissive like at most places. Will definitely be returning!

Big sugar cane cups that taste good. It’s 6 dollars for each big cup
Great Bakery with very good product. Detailed bakery with wedding cakes and a variety of bakery goods. Also great selection of Bobo tea's.
Growing up while other kids at school got chocolate cake or ice cream cakes for their birthdays, everyone in my family would get a green pan Dan coconut cake from Vans. Once we moved to our teenage years the family transitioned to Van’s fruit tart cakes. In typical kid fashion we always wanted what we couldn’t get. Now as adults and after years of eating all sorts of desserts, it’s always a treat to go back to Vans for a nostalgic taste of childhood. My friends and I are all elder millennials with the same shared youth experiences. You mention Vans Bakery in a group setting and ever’s memories flood in. Now a days it’s an absolute treat to get a cake from Vans and typically not a piece left over.
