43 Company - Milpitas

Stars for friendly customer service! But the desserts were lacking flavor all around. I’ll start with the pies I ordered (banana and coconut) First thing I need to note were the crusts. They were white- not golden, too thick, too flaky and too dry. The banana pie had a whipped cream filling with fresh bananas on the bottom and Carmel. The pie had bananas in it but somehow did not taste like a banana cream pie. I was expecting a banana custard with whipped cream on top. The whipped cream was not too sweet and I did like that but still I would not consider that a banana cream pie. I felt similarly about the coconut pie. There was barley any trace of coconut flavor and all I really tasted was that same whipped cream. I also ordered the lemon tart. It was zingy but it didn’t taste fresh and the custard was a little too runny. The fruit tart just lacked so much flavor. The custard tasted very similar to that whipped cream just thicker. Such a bummer! I would not recommend this place.

43 Company catered the desserts for our wedding. I was in communication with Likbin from the start, who provided all the necessary info to make the catering a success. The tarts were so well loved by our guests! I've already had multiple friends ask me where we got the tarts from : The chocolate cream pies were portioned well and very decadent. Pick up was easy too!Their lemon tarts are my favorite and really the best I tried different places for their tarts, and nothing could beat 43's cookie like crust (not soggy, perfectly crisp like shortbread and the tart lemoniness (I'm not a fan of sweet lemon I like it sour! . I would 10/10 buy desserts from them again, just as a treat! :

Delicious! High quality food presentation. Quick smooth pick up. Ordered 6 different Pattie's

Probably the best cream pie in the Bay Area! Their chocolate, coconut and banana cream pies are delicious. Pros: the sweetness is very balance through out even just eating the fillings the pie crust is very flaky and crunchy. Not hard to bite intoCons: only 2 hours pick up window, order 1 day in advance and open 5 days a week online order only and pick up at a warehouse type of store, which is a little confusing the first time a bit pricey but that is Bay Area price

I know this much is true: 43 Company's artisan-crafted desserts have become my addiction. I can never get enough. I only wish that I could afford to eat their desserts every weekend! The first time I tried their chocolate cream pie, my life was riddled with regret, as I only ordered ONE individual-sized cream pie to share with my son. I don't know wtf I was thinking. It was utterly ambrosial: delicately crisp butter crust, luscious chocolate custard, salted caramel, blanketed with coffee whipped cream, and topped with delicate dark chocolate shavings. You can only imagine my anguish...Sure, you're not one to fantasize about pies, but their made-from-scratch [chocolate] cream pie will more than likely change your mind. Folks, this thing is remarkably dreamy. Other cream pie flavors include matcha, banana (popular), and coconut. Okay, enough about their chocolate cream pie. If you're truly irked by pies, then be sure to check out the rest of their enticing offerings: cupcakes, cakes, and cakes. So far, I've tried their fruit tart (butter crust, vanilla bean pastry cream, topped with fresh fruits) and hazelnut-espresso cake (chocolate ganache espresso buttercream) as well. Without a doubt, CHEF'S KISS. I highly recommend trying these items as well, but I'm certain that one cannot go wrong with anything from their menu! Be sure to order in advance on their website for pick up at their commercial kitchen, as there is no retail storefront for walk-ins. There's same-day pick up within 30 minutes available (limited menu, though). Otherwise, you can pre-order from their full menu at wholesale prices. They also offer delivery within the South Bay for all you lazy mofos. Family sized and individual sized offerings available
