Cake for breakfast at Masse's Pastries (Berkeley, CA)



On the morning of my birthday, my parents asked me, "What do you want for breakfast?"

The answer is always cake. Specifically, cake from Masse's Pastries, which is my favorite local bakery in Berkeley. So at 9am on a Sunday, we went for cake and tea.


So here's a little pro-tip for all you kids out there whose parents won't let you eat cake for breakfast. Just wait until you're a 20-something 'adult'. Then your parents will let you eat all the cake for breakfast you want. It's magical.

P.S. Then my friend Annelies Zijderveld of The Food Poet made me some birthday Earl Grey lollipops out of my other friend Anita Chu's lollipop cookbook!

  7. I'm a little embarrassed because I've been following your blog for years and I've only just realized you are located near Berkeley! I'm a third year student at Cal and now I have to go try Masse's Pastries. Love this blog.
