Pasteleria Tres Leches

It was cake, that is about all you can say about it.
The tres leches was nothing special, it is just thrown in a box and put for sale. The end.
There are several pieces of cake that aren’t even sliced just crumbled out for sale, not paying for crumbles.
Ehhh I can make better at home.

I ordered their regular 3 leches cake and im very happy about the way everything turned out.
From the beginning, they were very attentive to details and delivered great customer service. They allowed me to sample one of their cakes since i had never been here before and came based only on Unilocal reviews.
They did not disappoint! They did a great job on my rosetta cake, the bread was moist the way i like it, and the frosting was so delicious. I asked them to add strawberries as well and it was perfect. They delivered it to my place which was great since i was running short on time. The price is right.
Would definitely recommend!

The service here is great and the cake I ordered looked beautiful (just like what I requested) but unfortunately this was probably one of the worst tres leches I have had it was pretty dry and had a ton of frosting.

For the past 8 years we have been getting cakes from here for all occassions. I would say every year we ordered about 10 – 11 cakes, from ¼ to ½ sheet. They were so deliscious, we have recommended so many friends and family to come here. Unfortunately the last maybe 2 years the cakes are not the same. The chocolate cake is dry, the 3 leches con nuez has been dry also. On one of the birthday cakes our guests found many pieces of egg shells. All these mistakes we thought were just isolated and tried to explain to the guest with embarrasmnet how maybe it was just an error of a new baker. The very last cake we bought was in March… I sent my aunt to get the cake, well she didnt check the cake before she left the bakery, when I get the cake I notice that they spelled birthday wrong. I took a picture and text it to the owner. I was expecting a simple «I’m sorry for that mistake». I did not get a reply from the owner. My nephews cake was the joke of the party, which made him so sad. This was the last cake we bought and will ever buy from here. I’m very sad about that. Too many dissapointments and no apologies.

The ladies at Tres Leches took such good care of us. Norma and Jeanette were so accommodating with our requests. They made mint colored desserts for us and everything tasted wonderful! Our guests loved the walnut tres leches cake so much I am now working with them to make our Wedding Cake. I strongly recommend this bakery.

We had lunch at Teresita’s and we were craving something delicious for dessert. My friend recommended Pasteleria Tres Leches for some pecan tres leches. We made the little trek and found this gem of East LA. The bakery is very plain and most of their selection is in the tall refrigerator cases. We asked for tres leches and she said they only had the pecan one left. YES!
We bought a few slices since they were only $ 2.25 each and went on our merry way. Unfortunately, they did not have any forks to give us so we had to go across the street to buy some at a random convenience store.
The cake was delicious. I wish I had some in front of me. The cake is more dense than the tres leches I’ve had from the Cuban bakeries but it was not dry at all. Every bite had flavor and I was so sad when I had no more.
One of the other reviews said that they make a tres leches wedding cake! AMAZING.
This is now going to be one of my musts in East LA!

I haven’t tasted tres leches cake many times but I hadn’t been impressed until the large birthday cake from Pasteleria Tres Leches made me a fan. It was pretty and delicious! The store itself isn’t much to look at but the cake makes up for it. Now I want to try the other offerings.

We love this place it’s delicious
You have to try there nuez cake and gelatina
We have been goin here for 8 years and there’s always great service !! :)

I can’t believe I never left them a review. This is by far the best tres leches I have ever had in my life! I searched far and wide for a bakery that could do a two tiered tres leches cake and everyone told me it wasn’t possible. They all said it would collapse. Not these guys. They made me a gorgeous cake. We also ordered a choco-​flan for the afterparty. It was also amazing.
It was so delicious and I still have people who rave about our wedding cake almost 5 years later.

This is BY FAR the best place in Los Angeles for Tres Leches cake. We can’t rave enough about it. We make a special trip across town to get one of their confections for every holiday celebration. And they made our wedding cake… it was absolutely perfect and our guests are still raving about it. And the family who runs the business is so nice. WE LOVE PASTELERIA!!!

¡Que deliciosa! This review is for the single slice of original tres leches cake only.
I came to Pasteleria Tres Leches not expecting much, but at the same time kinda had high expectations because of the name of the place. Anyways, I went towards the end of the night to get myself a slice of tres leches pastel. I was still stuffed from my amazing dinner at El Tepeyac Café (review to come) so I got it to-​go.
The cake itself had great flavors. It was nice and sweet, but not too milky. The frosting was thick and fluffy. My only complaint is that it was a bit dry for my liking. Would I get another slice? Sure. Would I come running back? Probably not.
Ps. Met the owner of the bakery. She’s super sweet and makes some amazing cakes for all occasions!
Quick tips:
1. Street parking only.
2. There’s a $ 0.50 cent charge for debt or credit use.
3. Lock your car.

And why do you need me to unbuckle?
Can’t you just deal with how it is?
Okay, I guess I can help a little.
AND you want me to unbutton also?
Not sure if I am comfortable with that…
Fine,
*narrows eyes
but I ain’t zipping down…
and the belt stays on.
No.
No, I do not think we need to join a gym.
It is fine.
It is winter time.
No one will notice you.
Get out!!!
I ain’t ready for 32.
31 has been fine for the last couple years and it will be fine for a couple more.
Stop being a jerk.
Maybe I will go down to 30 this year.
Whatchu think about that?
I don’t care if you don’t wanna believe me.
It’s Christmas time. Miracles happen.
Well…if you really can’t decide; I guess we can get all of them. Don’t think I don’t know what you are doing.
Quit grumbling.
I said okay.
We can get the galletas, tres leches, and the fancy gelatin.
The preceding was various conversations between my stomach and I concerning loosening the waist, joining a gym, buying new pants, and what to get while perusing Pasteleria Tres Leches.
My belly has a mind of its own.

We went late in the evening an got the driest tres leches cake I’ve had. I hope this was just a fluke.

Best 3 leches cake Ever! Very moist and isn’t soggy. You could also get Nuez, walnut added to it. That’s my favorite. Te thing about this place is that you could order a cake that day and get it within the hour. They have a great staff and they help you pick the right size for an event. Have tried anything else other than the cake but honestly I don’t thing I do. The price is very reasonable and they decorate the cake very nice. You could be specific if you want. Ohhhh and they don’t add a lot of frosting to the cake which is amazing.
There is no parking but I tend to park in the red zone, lol no one cares. Quick, in & out. Delicious cake!

I love it when the smell of freshly baked mexican bread passes through my house. Their cakes are a delight.

For all the serious tres leches lovers… you MUST go here. It is completely worth the drive. I live nowhere near here, but had a craving for Tres Leches cake, best discovery ever.
Great stop for birthday cakes, or individual pieces ($ 2). It’s so good it hurts.

This Pasteleria is one of the best here in Los Angeles! The owners are very kind and attentive to your needs. They are friendly and always have a smile on their faces. They have all kinds of cake and they even sell pieces, these are not your average small samples, the pieces they sell are enough to keep you happy and full for a while. They make cakes to your wants and they make them quickly and delicious. Not only do they sell cakes of course. They sell all kinds of delicious treats, like their great gelatinas! yummy! So if you are passing by 4^th St, make sure you dont over look this place.

Their pastel de tres leches is excellent, but you should also know about their gelatinas!
The Mexican jello dishes have flavors like pecan or milk with lime & cherry (the colors of the Mexican flag), and I can’t even remember what else. Just call them up or go look in their fridge.
They’re always a hit at potlucks and parties!
