New Whatcom Pastries (Pre-order required) at a glance

Customers consistently praise the bakery for its fresh, flaky pastries, noting that the fruit fillings are not overly sweet and that vegan options are well-received. The pre-order system is described as convenient, with punctual pickup or delivery and clear communication regarding order status. One reviewer suggested that lemon juice glaze should be reserved for fruit items, as it can alter the flavor of other pastries like almond croissants.

Thank you Kristina! All of the fillings are homemade. Berries are local from Barbie's Berries in Ferndale.

These pastries are some of the best I have ever had. They rival French patisseries. The pastry is light and flaky and the fruit fillings aren't too sweet. The scones are to die for. Everything I have tasted has been exceptional. Order the day before and pick up or have them delivered the next day. I highly recommend you try!

Absolutely loved these pastries! Ordering, pickup, packaging — all an excellent experience and the fresh pastries were delectable!! We tried three different vegan pastries and they all totally wowed our group including non vegans! Took me straight back to my time living in France. It’s always confused me why Iron Rooster and the Mount Bakery don’t offer vegan pastries but now we never need to visit another bakery again! New Whatcom reigns supreme!

Very pleased with my online order and delivery process. The owner was kind enough to send a picture of my pastry order before it was delivered. (I wish I could’ve included it in my review) They were absolutely beautiful. She even kindly included a note from me to the recipient.

Absolutely delectable pastries! The owner delivered these tasty treats I'll be dreaming of for weeks to come right to my home. My husband says the cinnamon roll is the best he's ever had and I've never had a better scone! Thank you so much.

Thank you for the order and the awesome review, Jennifer! I'm so glad you enjoyed the pastries.

I love how consistent the baked goods are from here! I also love the pick up system, it works for someone like me who sometimes doesn’t want to talk to people. I’m having these ordered for my birthday because I love them so much!
