Red Ribbon

Went here to try their Ube Cake. It was beautifully decorated with a decent size at a fantastic price. The outside layer felt like there were little pieces of crumbly purple cake stuck all over it. The taste of the cake was good overall for Filipino Bakery shops in the area, but we have had better. The Halo Halo dessert drink was very sweet, and it wasn't filled up all the way which we didn't notice until we got back to our car. Alot of other cakes and pastries buns to try as well with most or all being pre-packaged.

Can't believe I haven't reviewed Red Ribbon, this is after all one of our stops whenever we go to Woodside Queens (coming all the way from Manhattan) for our Filipino food fix. So grateful they're around and certainly satisfies all the cravings. Drove yesterday to get 2 birthday cakes for the hubby. First and foremost, I called thinking I need to place an order and will just pick it up. Apparently they're already open and Lito, who I spoke to on the phone, even encouraged me to look for him to assist me. I never got to ask for him because there were only 4 customers allowed inside and it went by pretty quick! Love how it feels extra clean and safe inside. You can no longer personally touch the baked products, you'll just order it and they'll pack it for you so less risk of exposure to anything potentially transmitted. Provides peace of mind. As for the order itself, my husband requested for his favorite Yema Cake and I added my favorite Chocolate Mousse cake. So so so GOOD! As always, they were a hit to our non-Filipino guests and family members (they always end up asking where to buy and me being the ambassador and endorser of the brand) and to my hubby who's been won over by Filipino food and taste. ♥️ Our other must-buys and favorites here are mamon (sponge cake like), Choco Moist, Ube Cheese Ensaymada, and of course the Ube Cake. Any Ube lover would absolutely be obsessed by this cake, trust me! :) They also have savory food and we absolutely love their Chicken Empanada and Arroz Caldo. They're also very famous for their Palabok and Halo Halo (when we were first dating, I brought my husband here and he absolutely loved it) and have quite the customer following for these and more. My absolute highest recommendation! Thank you Red Ribbon for being here! Manhattan branch soon, please? =)

Picked up a Choco Mocha Crunch Cake for a work event today, and all my co-workers (who are non-Filipino) loved it! Very light and tasty, and the crunchy topping (which is packaged separately) was a big hit. Don't forget to bring a reusable bag if you think you'll need to carry the cake box in a bag, or you'll need to buy one from them.
