After Sweetsalt, it was onto the next bakery in Burbank and I saw top recommendations for Miracle Bakery, all the way from Reddit as well.
I am sad to inform you that I did not become a fan and would not return.
As always, we order a bit of everything so we have a total of 8 items.
1) blueberry muffin
- The sugar crystals on top are a nice touch and there's an alive blueberry flavor but it is very dry. The only good part was the muffin top. 1/5
2) cheese danish
- One of the 3 items out of 8 that pass. Nice, fluffy texture with sweet cheese. One critique would be more cheese filling because too much bread. 4/5
3) banana bread
- This has a nice crust with nutella swirled on the top. The second of the 3 items out of 8 that pass. Nothing too special but it was tasty. I would have preferred a more softer texture to the bread but it was not dry or rough. 3/5
4) chocolate chip cookie
- decent but the outer layer was a bit stale. 3/5
5) Budin
- This is the biggest disappointment of all 8. This budin tasted like absolutely nothing. I couldn't even taste straight up sugar. It was the blandest budin and dessert I have ever tasted. I was so confused. Making budin 2 times, I still haven't conquered the right texture but the flavor was still there so I was taken aback how there was no taste to this. 1/5
6-8) cakes
Birthday white cake: I noticed their cake textures are similar to tres leches but it doesn't work on all kinds of cakes. It didn't work with this vanilla cake. The frosting was also bland. 1/5
Chocolate cake: Another with tres leches texture and not the best chocolate flavor. 2/5
Oreo cheesecake: The final item of 3 out of 8 that is saved. A really nice oreo flavor and great cream cheese texture. Super yummy! If I had to pick a winner, this one is it! 4.5/5
