The staff is wonderful and friendly. I'm somewhat convinced the chef is a sorceress because nothing is this good without something supernatural going on. :D For context, my hus..." Read more

"Every time we come to the area we have to stop here. Their pastries or as good as any in Chicago. One of the things I love about their product is it's not overly sweet like so many other bakeries."

My new favorite dessert spot. The lady who helped us was very friendly and a pleasure to talk to. Highly recommend this place!"

"Hands down the BEST bakery in northern Indiana. Their croissants easily compete with ones I’ve had in Paris. Unlike other regional bakeries who worry less about flavor and more about sweetness levels, Bao’s has an innate ability to pair flavors so brilliantly that sweet is the last thing you taste. Oh and the staff is always sweet and helpful. Go and supp..." Read more

"Absolutely LOVE ❤️ your pastries and desserts ..! Hope to see some themed items (holidays). You have a great reputation as everything you make tastes great ! Prices are a little high but then again a specialty. Packaging may not always support the item. That’s the only thing I would improve on! Yum! Thanks for making Valpo your home!!"

"Yummy, the best selection of desserts in a tiny little space. Blows my mind how many different things there are to choose from. Tons of differently flavored macaroons. Wonderful fruit and chocolate tarts and cakes. Gorgeous desserts that taste as good as they look."

"I’m no pastry scholar, so for the most part, I pick something random each time I visit and it’s always delicious regardless of what I get. The staff are incredibly helpful as well. An absolute gem of a place in Valpo."
