I went to Sunmerry Bakery on three separate occasions and it has now become my favorite bakery AND tea shop. They remind me of another big bakery and tea place I know, but honestly, Sunmerry is 3x better. Fluffier breads, quality tea drinks, and gorgeous cakes. Plus, the staff are so nice and have a very calming demeanor that just makes me want to stay there all day. The staff are also very helpful at recommending things when I ask, because there are so many great options and I can't choose, haha!
They are a few bucks more than other asian bakeries but I don't mind paying more for a better experience and better quality goodies. My fiance is a pickier tea drinker than I am, and he said their Grapefruit Green Tea is a 5 out of 5 on the delicious scale - perfectly sweet but not too sweet. You can taste the fresh grapefruit flavor, and the tea was sifted with love and care - we definitely recommend the Grapefruit Green Tea here, and it sure is a refreshing summer drink. It has become a staple to order here.
I also went out of my way to try their cake and because I remembered how good their cake looked in the display the last time I was there. My girl bestie loooovvves chocolate, and she had a birthday coming up and I knew I had to get their cake here. I opted for the 6-inch Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Cream, Chocolate Ganche, and Raspberry Jam, and it was perfect. She had lots of sweets celebrating her birthday with multiple friends and told me Sunmerry's cake was the lightest, fluffiest, and most chocolate-y and a cake she can have everyday, easily, because it is just so light and fluffy. I also got to try it and it was very much enjoyed to the last lick of the fork. Plus, it was decorated like a cute fluffy cloud dog, how can I resist?
I also got to try a variety of their breads - from their chocolate oreo buns that sent me to chocolate world, to the mochi taro bread that was as fluffy and light as a pillow, to their mini frank roll pack; there wasn't anything I didn't love.
I will always make it a point to visit Sunmerry Bakery now if I am in Temple City. Definitely give Sunmerry a try - you will love anything, literally, at first bite. Keep up the amazing work folks! I will see you very soon.
