A Bakery Is Giving Away One Million Pastries. Here's How To Get One

TORRANCE, CA — A South Korean bakery chain is giving away one million pastries to celebrate reaching its subscriber goal on its new rewards program, the company announced Wednesday.

Paris Baguette says it recently reached one million subscribers on its reward program that was revamped in 2024 and has decided to give a free pastry to every member on June 2, with the purchase of any item.

"The significant momentum we've seen with our PB Rewards program has been truly incredible, as we've nearly doubled our enrollment in less than a year," Director of Digital Marketing at Paris Baguette North America Brit Pyles said in a statement Wednesday. "We're incredibly proud to be a part of our guests' day – whether it's grabbing a morning coffee and pastry, enjoying an afternoon treat or sweetening a special occasion."

There is one Paris Baguette located in the South Bay area and several more across Los Angeles and Orange counties. The South Bay store is located at the Torrance Hannam Market (21305 Hawthorne Blvd.). Find a nearby location here.

Non-rewards members can still enroll through the mobile app and get a free pastry with any purchase, according to the company.

The offer excludes baguettes, loaf breads, cream puff tarts, cake slices and multi-pack pastries, the company said.

Paris Baguette opened its first store in South Korea in 1988 and has since expanded, opening hundreds of bakery cafés across the world.

"Paris Baguette is on a mission to reestablish the neighborhood bakery café as the heart of the community," the company said in a statement. "Being a neighborhood bakery café means caring about those around us and finding ways to make a real impact."
