Jazmin’s Bakery

Overpriced and i have to pay extra to use debit card umm no way but the workers here are friendly

Jazmin Bakery makes delicious cakes. Order the chocolate Bavarian cream buttercream frosting. It is pricey but I keep coming back when a cake needs to be ordered. Simply scrumptious !

This place is amazing! Very clean. Customer service is great. The best tamales in the city. Hazelnut latte and fresh OJ is very good. A lots good sweets to choose. Highly recommend this place for all of you to try. AAA+++

Thomas the great that makes most of the cakes is so talented! If you want a nice cake made and decorated to perfection, I would request for Thomas. The tamales were amazing !!! Service is okay but could be better!

The Mexican Pan Dulce here is dry and stale… It is a shame since it is a good sized bakery and one of the few stand alones in town. I recommend that you go to Vallarta Market instead where the bakery makes fresh pan dulce (Mexican) bread daily. Also Jazmin’s prices are too high. Not sure why this places gets any good reviews, likely people don’t know the difference between what is suppose to be good.

This place is a hidden GEM!!! The tamales are sensational, the sweets are scrumptious, and the hazelnut latte and fresh squeezed OJ is to die for! The customer service is also excellent they have a very homey touch so glad I came across Jazmins they have a customer for life!

Came here one night because I was craving for tres leches which a co worker has been raving about. She said their tres leches were off the hook. I am very skeptical and picky about my tres leches. So why not give it a try. Ordered 2 even thought I’ve not had it… Ordered a German chocolate as well… pork tamale… and a cookie.
Place was A okay. Kind of reminds me of a Porto’s when they first started doing business.
Got home, the tres leches did not have milk on the bottom like all the others that I’ve had, it had strawberries in the middle which I thought was weird. The German chocolate Cale had a funny taste to it and the nuts that they had put in there was so off from the cake. I threw the German chocolate away, even my kids were saying «yuck».
Overall, I would not come again to this place. It was A okay but def would not visit again. I was not too impressed with their cakes…
I’ve had way better tres leches than this and coming from a Spanish/​Mexican bakery you would think they would be best at making them, but guess not.
Thanks, Jazmin

When we saw Jazmin’s Bakery, Panaderia and Pasteleria next door to a hookah lounge and a lunch banner advert hanging outside, we thought they were connected. I also know more than one Iranian women nicknamed «Yasi» After driving around the block looking for parking, and finding a small lot in back advertizing ‘Jazmin’s Bakery Parking’ we were sure they were connected.
They’re not.
Jazmin’s is a high end EuroMex bakery selling tamales; what I’d call tortas but many call sandwiches, smoothies, pan dulce, cookies, cakes and cheesecake from the Americas and beyond.
Newhall, forgotten founding town of the upper Santa Clarita Valley, is a place most people drive past. It takes effort to arrive there in the 21^st century. It us worthy of a visit. Especially if it’s time for a meal. Particularly if you enjoy a diamond-​clean bakery faced by cases of fresh, artistic, attractive baked goods.
We bought calabaza empanadas, marranitos, cream filled croissant and strawberry cheesecake slices. Most empanadas have a tablespoon of filling surrounded by lots of dough. The Jazmin pumpkin ones were plump, fully-​filled egg-​glazed beauties full of not too sweet or solid filling of the squash of fall.
The marranitos, also egg glazed, were of crumbly texture, not too sweet, but not much ginger flavor. Excellent briefly dipped in coffee.
The strawberry cheesecake was a lure to fish our way into a home needing some loving, food-​bearing visitors. Four phone calls and a description of the lovely, delightful-​smelling morsals got us in the front door. We had a great visit.
As you drive past Newhall, you are passing excellent dining opportunities. We encourage you to stop and eat the strawberries, and cheesecake, pumpkin and gingerbread. Life’s too short to spend so many hours on the 5 or 14. Spend a bit of it in downtown Newhall.

This place is just a few doors down from my business on Main. It’s our go to place for a quick snack or a light lunch of a tamale. The girls are always nice and the food is always tasty and fresh. You definitely can’t beat their prices.

I had placed an order last year for a cake last year for my oldest daughter. The cake was a Domo and it came out great.
This year I had them do another cake for my youngest and it came out great. I look forward to ordering my next cake from this place again.

Here’s a suggestion for the munchies: 3 tamales, a large bottle of water and a Napoleon (pastry made with custard… not whipped cream that some bakeries try to pass-​off) all for under $ 11 including tax.
This is a mom-​and-​pop operation. The location is unpretentious (this is downtown Newhall…). However, once you walk inside you will be pleasantly surprised when you see the variety of pastries behind the counter. Be prepared to go into a Diabetic coma!
As respects the tamales, they are a bit small, and mine could have used a bit more sauce. That being said, the price-​point is incredible. There were about 6 different tamales listed on the board. Unfortunately, at 1PM there were only 3 varieties available and we tried each. The tamales are served in a wax paper bag to keep them fresh and steamed (and so you don’t burn your fingers on the corn husks). Two of the tamales were a bit squashed so I’m assuming they were at the bottom of the steamer. None were overly generous with fillings. But, the taste (other than the chicken which was bland and a bit stringy) was very good.
Again, this is a Bakery and the tamales are a side-​line attraction. That being said, you can’t find more value for your money, and the pastries and the tamales are better than the ethnic markets (ie. Vallarta’s).
There are only 3 tables in the store. Parking was not a problem on a Saturday afternoon.

(Snacked 08÷07÷14 TH @ 3:00pm): Man, I’m jazzed about this local panaderia, I’ll have to sing it’s praises!
This was my second time to Jazmin’s Bakery located in Old Newhall, and I honestly needed to make it a habit to patronage this haven of glorious baked goods more often. Oddly enough, each time has been after a beer and burger lunch (today was Bricks, and previous was the nearby Newhall Refinery). And I owed a gratitude of thanks to a fellow friend and colleague who introduced me to this establishment. Well, let’s continue with the story:
A plate full of loveliness (approx. $ 2.00 ea.) —
1. Pineapple Empanada: Filled with sweet vibrant yellow pineapple, once you bit into this pastry it all wanted to come out. I didn’t bother to heat this up, but I bet it would’ve been even more amazing!
2. Custard Empanada: Creamy goodness with a cinnamon topping on the pastry. As noted above, I bet it would’ve tasted even more amazing heated.
3. Carrot Cake: Extremely moist, had some girth, and was filled with sufficient amount of carrot bits. The frosting was thick and not as creamy as I’d hoped. A tall ice cold glass of milk would’ve complemented this well.
4. Flaky Sweet Pastry: Similar to the «ear» version, this was airy, light and flaky, and left a total mess of crumbs… which I proudly picked up with a wet finger and sucked down! Mmm… finger-​licking good!
5. Jalapeño & Cream Cheese Bread: I enjoyed this for breakfast so I heated it up. The bread was sweet and fluffy, and the plentiful filling slightly oozed out. This place doesn’t scimp on the fillings!
Side note: On my first visit months ago, I bought a batch of their tamales which apparently was the rage of this place. I got the jalapeño and cheese and had them for dinner. They were of good size, nicely filled, and tasted fine unadulterated but sriracha made it much better!
Service — Each time, it’s been a young friendly female (maybe the same one?) who never said much but was always pleasant with her demeanor and smile. She kindly answered each time I’d asked, «What’s that?» Quick easy service — ’nuff said! Please leave a tip before you leave.
Parking (free) — There were plenty of free street parking out front and in the surrounding area. I suspected they had at least a shared parking lot, but each time I’ve been here I’ve been able to nab front-​door parking like I was about to rob the joint!
Atmosphere, décor, ambience — A simple storefront with a spacious interior, inviting display cases that showed their wares, a refrigerated drink machine, coffees and teas made behind the counter, some promotional signage hung on the walls, a couple of tables and chairs if you wanted to enjoy your treats there, and plenty of natural lighting shown through the front windows and glass doors. I didn’t recall any TVs nor background music. I was too focused on the sweet treats!
Attire — Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-​shirt, boardshorts, and flip-​flops if I weren’t at work.
Overall, Jazmin’s Bakery was a lovely mom & pop that I hoped to continue to support whenever I’m in the area as I planned to work my way through each scrumptious offering. Now… all they needed was some help with web presence, menus, photos, etc. [hint hint] for more visibility! I found exceptionally good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (total paid experience was around $ 12.00 before tip). That averaged barely $ 2.00 each yummy pastry which seemed rather good to me! And, although they accepted credit cards ($ 10.00 minimum), not mine of choice… AMEX! 4.5 STARS

I read all the great reviews about this place and thought to myself «I am going to get the pastries from here, and I will be a big hit at the meeting!» WRONG! I placed, and paid, for my order A MONTH in advanced. When I went to pick them up, at the time that was scheduled, they were no where near, being ready… they didn’t even start making them yet… Sure, they gave me a free pastry for the inconvenience, but that didn’t make up for the 20 minutes that made me late for my meeting. I expressed to them, the day I made my order, that this was an important meeting, and I needed to make a good impression… Guess they are not good listeners… never again…

I happened to be in the area, and stopped in for some tamales. I’ve had tamales at all the big l. a names (La Mascota, Alberto’s, Indiana), and this place is definitely a competitor. I’m used to cheese tamales being kinda skimpy, but they pack it with corn and other goodies along with the cheese. Huge, perfectly moist masa, and freaking delicious. And they’re open until a decently late hour (9pm).
Everything was cheap. And delicious. Goddamn! Will update once I’ve had some of their baked goods.

This was our 3^rd time to order a cake for a special occasion. I can’t believe we just found this bakery a year ago. It is such a great bakery.
We purchased the white cake with Bavarian cream. The cake is so moist. The cream filling is delicious. Last time we had sliced strawberries for a filling and it was equally tasty.
I don’t understand the reviews about rudeness. Each time the staff was very quick and very friendly. They get busy so if you call during peak hours, they will take your number can call you back in a few minutes. (That’s what happened when I called.)
The bakery is clean and organized.
The 9″ round cake was $ 16. Maybe a couple bucks more than a grocery store cake — but SO worth it for the quality. :)
TIP: It’s sometimes busy on Main St. in Newhall, but there is additional parking a block or so away.

This bakery is the worst ever. They are the rudest people in the entire world. Just because most people who come in are hispanic they think they can get away with it. On top of it, in order to use your card you need to spend 10 dollars just so they will accept it. The tamales are made fresh but they freeze them. DO NOT GO HERE! YOU WILL REGRET IT ! I wouldnt even give them ONE STAER, but i had to

A long overdue review…
Come on Santa Clarita people this is NOT the best Bakery in town.
First off they need to take some customer service lessons. The five times I have been there they all have been very RUDE and Nasty!!! They have no manners and because most customers are Hispanic they know they will never complain and any other race they are so done!
Now to the pastries and everything else they sell there… is over priced! Their cakes suck so bad they are too sweet, too dry and nothing special, if I pay a lot of money I do expect good service and good stuff!
They think they can treat people bad and on top of that over charge for their nothing special pastries.
I gave them five chances… enough is enough and I will forever drive to Portos (burbank) and MyBakery (in sylmar) for better quality! I know I will get my monies worth, and if I ever am running out of time I will run to Vons they are a gazillion times better both in taste and customer service.
A personal meesage to the Bakery (which I know they are not classy enough to know about Unilocal) but I will give it a shot: Traten mejor a sus clientes latinos porque querian o no son los que estan manteniendo a su negocio un dia otra panaderia va llegar y les va dar a la torre y todo porque no trataron bien a sus cleintes, quien va quere ir su ustedes tratan a sus clientes como basura? Yo JAMAS pizo alli! Y anciosa espero que llegue otra panaderia que les de a a la madre aversi se educan.

LOVE this bakery. Get there early… they sell out.
Look our Vallarta…

A friend brought over Tamales last month and I reviewed Jazmin’s Restaurant — I didn’t know they were from the bakery! Excellent tamales, the cheese were especially great.
I ordered a Strawberry Short Cake for a birthday and chicken and cheese tamales. The cake was beautiful — I’m not a huge fan of whip cream frosting (too light and delicate) but it was not about me! Everyone liked it.
The tamales were VERY spicy. They were not spicy at all the first time I had them. I had to get up from dinner and make the kids pasta. They were not consistent at all with the first time I had them.
The bakery is good, I also had some cookies and they were a bit dry. Lots of selection. I HATE when places charge you extra to use a credit card — I’M SPENDING OVER $ 60.00 — It;s not like I’m charging $ 5.00. I think that’s tacky.

I love panaderias (Mexican bakeries) and was already a fan of Jazmin’s but the way they treated me this week solidified my fandom. I had ordered and paid for a Rosca de Reyes (description at bottom) earlier in the week. When I went to pick it up I forgot to bring my receipt and they couldn’t find their copy. After a few minutes of flustered searching and me offering twice to drive home and get the receipt the girl at the counter just gave it to me.
Did you hear that? The girl believed that I was honest, conceded that they may have made a mistake and gave me the item. Unbelievable!
Jazmin’s I’m yours!
OK. A Rosca de Reyes is a big Mexican pastry meant to celebrate the three kings arriving and meeting baby Jesus. Traditionally there’s a ceramic or plastic baby baked inside for the kids to find. Jazmin’s tops theirs alternately with strips of crumbly sugar and candied fruit. Other panaderias top them differently. The French in France and in New Orleans celebrate the same day, January 6^th, with different pastry.
