"Sometimes, when the days get long and every night blurs together, we slip into a very specific daydream—one where we cut off all our hair, move to the Danish countryside, and go by a new name. When that daydream hits, we head to Copenhagen Pastry. The brightly lit bake shop in Culver City has more Danish goods than an IKEA showroom, from pretzel-shaped kringles to butter cakes to loaves of rye. If you come on the weekend, get their special morning rolls. They cost around a dollar each, and are made from soft, slightly sweet dough—the perfect vehicle for any jammy eggs or jellies you might have on hand." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore, cathy park
"Sometimes on slow days we slip into a very specific daydream, one where we cut off all our hair, move to the Danish countryside, and go by a new name. Whenever that daydream hits, we head to Copenhagen Pastry. The brightly lit bake shop has more eye-catching Danish goodies than an IKEA showroom, including raspberry kringles, princess cakes, chocolate-dipped macaroons, and, if you come on the weekend, dessert specials like silky apricot chocolate mousse cake by the slice." - sylvio martins, cathy park
"Founder Karen Hansen wanted to serve a beautiful, buttery slice of her homeland Denmark at this lovely 11-year-old bakery. Serving delightful Danishes, cakes, and other baked treats that balance all the right levels of sugar, fruit, and pastry, Copenhagen works great as a morning pick-me-up or as a shareable office treat. The princess cake, borrowed from nearby Sweden, is a must-order for cake aficionados. — Matthew Kang, lead editor" - Eater Staff, Matthew Kang
"Culver City’s Copenhagen Pastry is known for Danish baked goods like kringles, butter cakes, rye loaves, and sesame rolls. Order on a Friday (or the weekend) if you can - it’s the only time they’ve got their great morning rolls, which are $1 each and go with basically anything, from breakfast eggs to whatever you’re throwing together for dinner. App delivery available, or order online for in-store pick-up." - brett keating
"This delightful slice of Denmark comes from owner Karen Hansen, whose plucky baking team prepares raspberry jam-filled danishes and cakes like this Princess cake (admittedly, borrowed from nearby Sweden). Covered in a beautiful pale green marzipan and layered with whipped cream, jam, and custard, it’s hard to resist a slice in the mornings or afternoons with a strong cup of coffee. — Matthew Kang, lead editor" - Eater Staff
