"My mother and I went to Bao's Pastry a couple hours ago. Even though I only got Macarons, I can tell this Pastry shop is AMAZING! The Macarons were out of this world, by the way! Anyone that has the time to, stop here, you won't regret it! 5 stars, all the way!"

"this is a little gem off the main drag of downtown Valparaiso.

If you want a li..." Read more

"This is a great addition to Valparaiso and even NWI. Good selection most of the time. Wide variety of not too sweet desserts. They also have breads and banquets some times. The kitchen in back always seems to be busy making the food onsite. I've been there three times now and every visit has been very positive."

"There are not enough good things to say about Bao's: the staff is friendly and helpful, the bakery is clean and aesthetically pleasing and the baked goods are out of this world. This bakery is 100 percent authentic Parisian and the next best thing to flying to Paris and going to a bakery. I highly recommend the chocolate almond croissant and macarons (I have..." Read more

"This place is amazing. I am actually not happy about it because I don't usually eat dessert unless it is actually worth it and everything here is perfection. We now go at least weekly and everything we have had is so amazingly delicious it becomes our new favorite dessert. The prices are amazing for the quality and level of baking skill achieved here."
