Stopped by here because who doesn't love pastries?…read more The store is cute and clean, I love the display cases. I bought an almond croissant and a berry scone. Location is in a strip mall with ample parking. The berry scone was insanely big! The flavors were incredible, probably the best scone I've ever had. The croissant was delicious and perfectly buttery and crispy. I will definitely be back to try more pastries!

From the moment you step inside, there is an unmistakable warmth to the space not just from the ovens but from the overall vibe. It is bright, upbeat, and welcoming in a way that immediately puts you at ease and sets the tone for a great experience. We started with the Pop Tarts which deserve special recognition. These are not novelty pastries. They are elevated, flaky, buttery, and packed with flavor. The kind of treat that makes you pause mid bite and immediately realize this place takes its craft seriously. The breakfast burrito was equally impressive. Hearty, well balanced, and comforting without being heavy, it was clearly made with intention and quality ingredients rather than shortcuts. The waffles with blueberries and whipped cream were outstanding. Crisp on the outside and soft and airy on the inside, with fresh blueberries that added brightness and a whipped cream that felt light and indulgent rather than overly sweet. It was the kind of dish that manages to feel nostalgic and refined at the same time. Then came the pastries. Any attempt at restraint disappeared quickly. Everything in the case looked incredible and after tasting the first few items it became obvious that passing on anything would have been a mistake. We ended up buying far more pastries than planned simply because the quality across the board was that high. There were no weak links. What truly elevates Life Is Sweet beyond excellent food is the energy of the place. There is a positivity that fills the room and it is completely effortless. It makes you want to slow down, sit longer, and enjoy where you are. Whether you are stopping in for a quick breakfast or lingering with coffee and conversation, the environment naturally lifts your mood. Life Is Sweet is not just a bakery or breakfast spot. It is a place that genuinely enhances your day. The food is exceptional, the atmosphere is inviting, and the experience stays with you well after you leave. This is a must visit in Danville and the kind of place you will find yourself thinking about long after the last pastry is gone.

I was at "Life is Sweet Bakery & Cafe" for a quick visit on a sunny Wednesday afternoon…read more I just wanted to see their selection of cookies. Maybe they had some Oatmeal Raisin. I walked in and was immediately greeted by a young lady behind the counter. I decided to try a variety of cookies on display in the case. I went with- Oatmeal Raisin, Peanut Butter, Cookies 'n Cream, and Snickerdoodle. So 4 cookies, total $19. Good, fresh and tasty cookies. Not too sweet. Cafe was clean and neat. Lots of tables inside, and some outside. I will definitely return if I'm in downtown Danville again.

We are going with Old Towne Danville Bakery as our baker for our wedding cake later this year. As…read moresoon as I walked in, it smelled SO good that I practically wanted to order one of everything they had. Karen, the owner, took the time to walk me through the sampler box of the different wedding cake flavors, even though it started to get busy in the store she was very kind to make it a personal experience. There were 12 different flavors in the sampler ranging from standard red velvet or vanilla cake, to some fancier ones such as poppy seed cake with lemon curd. Our favorite was the vanilla cake with apricot preserve and we will almost certainly be having that as one of our layers. I am very excited to continue working with them as we design our cake and next time I go in I will definitely be grabbing one of th delicious looking cannoli!

This review is LONG overdue! Karen and Marci worked with us to create our amazing wedding cake in…read moreMarch, and were so lovely to work with! I was super overwhelmed handling other wedding details, and every conversation with them made me feel so comfortable. I talked to Karen a week beforehand to confirm all cake details, and she was SO warm and had the best "We got this! Don't even worry" attitude - I can't even describe how relieved she made me feel. They were able to make our whole cake gluten-free due to my own allergy. I have had celiac for almost 20 years, and still can't even bake anything remotely edible after countless attempts. The fact that they made this cake gluten free and we all RAVED about it is 1) a miracle in itself and 2) makes me actively very jealous that I can't try their normal baked goods! I didn't even really eat dinner at my own wedding, but you bet I had two pieces of cake. We are super grateful, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding cake!

Worth $5.50? Debatable Russe Pistachio: great pistachio flavor "Mango" and "Pistachio": fun and adorable, so realistic looking. The texture combination of hard outer shell and soft creamy inside is not for everyone. I got these more for the novelty. Not something I would get again Crunchy vanilla lemon: the white chocolate made this too sweet for me Princess cake: our favorite of the cakes we got Pistachio latte: realllly good. Wish I'd gotten the larger size Parking is easy here as it's across from the Safeway. It does get crowded (we came on a Saturday) and the shop itself is not big but there's some tables outside. Service was friendly but there was a lot of multi tasking going on. I didn't feel neglected though and would not rate them down for this. I'd come back, but probably not for the cakes. I'm also about 30 mins away so it'd be a deliberate decision

We only tried the pistachio Dubai-style cake that's currently trendy- and it was pretty good, with a crispy texture and rich chocolate flavors. We'd love to try more desserts whenever we pass by.

I think this store has a lot of potential if the location were better and the décor were enhanced a bit.

POST WEDDING UPDATE: After the cake tasting and deciding on using Ma Petite Maison, we asked Negar…read morefor a contract (she calls it order form). After a few weeks, we finally got it. It did take some effort (several emails and voice mails). A couple of weeks before the wedding, I wanted to know where/when the flowers from the florist should get delivered so that she can put them on the cake. When I didn't hear back from Negar, I contacted my florist and she responded immediately that I don't need to worry. Negar delivers the cake to the venue, and the flowers are added there. Phew! So my only negative comment is that communications is not great, but persevere because the cake will be worth it! On the day of the wedding, seeing that beautiful cake on the table, it was just what we had imagined. We got great advice from Negar that we should order only enough cake for about 75% of your guests, and sure enough, that was plenty. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it tasted just as good. It was so moist, and you can really tastes the strawberry flavor in the filling. It was just as we remembered from the tasting. We had so many compliments on the cake. So don't give up if you can't reach Negar. She does everything herself, and is a totally sweet person to work with. The cake will be worth it.
