Pastry Heaven

Thank you for the wonderful service! I’ve ordered several cakes for my mother and father in-​law and they have always been pleasantly surprised! It’s so convenient for me to order all the way from Los Angles!

Stopped by today around 4 and I was instantly amazed at their display cakes in their window. Being that it was 4 pm there wasn’t a whole lot of pastries left but I got a big cream puff ($ 3) and it was delicious! The prices were cheap for such great quality.

We only buy one of the pastries here because it is the best and we can’t find any other bakery that makes Kolachis like Pastry Heaven. The Kolachis are light, fluffy, buttery and just the right amount of filling to give it a good blend of filling to pastry. The Kolachis have a sugar glaze that gives it a nice sweet flavor.
If you go in the afternoon you might be too late. They seem to sell out by the afternoon but if you call the day before you can reserve/​order some for the next day. The only negative is there are only two types of fillings: apricot or raspberry, it would be great if they had a few other flavors too.
We live in the Bay Area but when we are close to Citrus Heights we like to stop by and pick some up. We haven’t been able to go recently so hopefully they haven’t changed the recipe.

Customer for life! Love jose’s wrk!!! Couldn’t ask for anything more. He never once even seemed annoyed with the millions of questions I had for him!

Tina listened to our every wish and she and her husband made a wonderful First Communion Cake for our 60 guests. Each of the 3 tiers was a different flavor. The cake was both beautiful and delicious. It was not inexpensive, but the price reflects the hours of work put into the cake, icing, and decoration. They are wonderful people and their cakes, cookies, croissants (especially the apricot) are fresh, European style, and different. I recommend them to everyone. Support this local business — they are worth it!

This is the real deal independent bakery, with all items made on site. Products are sinfully good and supporting this place is easy. The downside: location. I live nearby and must have driven by 100 times before I discovered them.

Pastry Heaven! Oh Pastry Heaven! I’m in Heaven when I walk into your store!
My favorite bakery delights here entail the fruit tart, chocolate chip cookies with the chocolate surprise crème in the middle, the Napoleon as well as the chocolate eclairs.
This hidden gem is truly special in this small strip mall next to Beverly’s store nearby.
I had been going to the same hairdresser for years and when he moved to Sienna, I had to go by the bakery to pick up my favorite treats. If Jose didn’t have the fruit tarts ready in the case, he would have them ready after my hair was done. It was a truly a treat to get any delicious baked goods here. It’s making my
mouth water while I type out this review because they are that good!
He does have cakes in the case as well; their prices on their cakes aren’t as outrageous as Freeport Bakery is. So try it out especially if you are in the area. I will drive out this way and I live in Elk Grove! Don’t wait… just go! You just may be pleasantly surprised:)

I wish I could give this place no stars! I was recommended this place by my mother, she said it was the best bakery in town, NOT! I ordered a birthday cake for my daughters birthday, after getting to the party and was tasting the cake the center chocolate frosting was hard and greasy tasting, the cake was dry and the outer frosting had the consistency and taste of crisco oil and it left a greasy feeling in your mouth. I have seriously had better cakes from Walmart! When I called to complain the person was rude and uncaring. I DONT recommend this place and I will NEVER be back!!!

Without exception THE best bakery I have ever been to. Thanks for the amazing wedding cake that will be talked about for a long time?

Can’t get over how adorable my son’s 1^st birthday smash cake turned out. It was exactly what I wanted and perfect for a 4^th of July 1^st birthday.

I was looking for somewhere to get a custom made cake from for my baby shower and so I visited the store… I immediately felt like I had made the right decision by choosing this shop. Jose was very detail oriented and listened to exactly what I wanted.
I placed the order and picked it up the morning of the shower. It was SO adorable and beautiful! I must say Jose and his wife did an amazing job. It also was delicious. Compared to some of the prices I saw at other places for a custom made cake, this place could not be beat! I’m so glad I ordered a larger size (for leftovers)! :)
Thank you for the beautiful cake for my baby shower.

What a hidden gem this bakery is. We’ve driven by this shop numerous times before stopping by on the spur-​of-​the-​moment before the Easter weekend. We didn’t know this place made such delicious baked delights. (Shame on us.)
The cake was moist, delicious, and perfectly baked and decorated. Don’t take our word for it. Try it out.

This place makes amazing cakes! I’ve yet to actually go to this shop, I’ve just been lucky enough to try their sheet cakes! First one was at my birthday party, where my wonderful friends got me the passion fruit filled white cake (knowing my love for anything passion fruit) and honestly, outside of the fact it was my birthday cake, it was the best cake I’ve ever tasted! Fluffy cake and the frosting isn’t sickeningly sweet, like most cakes.
I just tried the chocolate mouse cake yesterday, and it was great as well! I can’t say enough good things about this place! Next, I’m going to get a fruit basket cake for my honey’s impending birthday!

What a relief to finally find a bakery like this, phew! My sister worked in a French Bakery in Cupertino for years. After moving to Northern California, I found many lovely bakeries but missed my visits to my favorite. Walking in, the sweet smell of sugar and fresh coffee… YUM. I have tried quite a few of the cakes from Pastry Heaven. For my sons 2^nd birthday we had a full sheet cake and I have never seen a cake go so quick. If you know that a full sheet can serve up to 108 people and we had 55 then you know how GOOD that cake was…
The FRUIT BASKET cake, Jose will tell you, is their most popular and for good reason. I have had this cake twice when ordering it for an office birthday, never disappoints. Soft fluffy and quite moist, white cake with fruit. Whip cream frosting, amazing. I have ordered a chocolate mousse cake today, again, office birthday. Can’t wait to sample the decadent delight. Saturday you will also find me at Pastry Heaven picking up a baby shower cake! I have confidence that the upcoming orders will be in line with the high standards this spot delivers. Great spot to take an out of towner for some coffee and pastry too.

I love my neighborhood bakery! I have bought many birthday cakes here and they are consistently delicious and fresh. Jose is the man who can make it happen! He is very friendly and honest and he can make anything. I usually bring in a picture of the cake design I want and he does it exactly. Then I get rave reviews for the beautiful cake design as well as the taste. Oh the taste, so decadent with just enough sweetness, which is not too sweet, like European cakes! Fruit basket is my all time fave, I always get that and everyone loves it. Then if I need more than one cake, the mocha kahlua is so good. They also have awesome pastries and cookies. I’ve ordered butter cookies in personalized shapes for parties and their recipe is wonderful! I highly recommend this place. Great for dinner parties or your big events too! I hope they stick around forever.

I’m not sure what problem Jane ran into, but I’ve never had any problems with Pastry Heaven other than the fact that they’re not open ²⁴⁄₇!
The staff lets you browse uninterrupted until you are ready to pick and pay.
Their treats are fantastic! I’ve tried their cakes, fruit pastries, petit-​fours, cookies, etc: everything is delicious. Their cake is what other cakes wish they could be – light and flavorful.
Also, everything is crazy inexpensive!

Horrible customer service!
I’m planning a quinceanera and a wedding but the man who was peddling cake was rude and really abrupt. The woman with him was not helpful either. Okay Pastry Heaven, I got the message — NO CAKE FOR ME! Thanks for making my decision easy. I can’t imagine working with a business with such poor service and lack of courtesy for any special kind of event.

I tried to stop in one day & they were closed so I was happy when they were open when I decided to stop in on a whim to pick up a couple goodies. It was later in the afternoon so the selection wasn’t great, but that’s to be expected of any good bakery, people come in & get all the really good stuff early! I picked up a butterhorn, a ham & cheese croissant, a few Mexican wedding cookies, & a shortbread cookie with raspberry jam.
The first Mexican wedding cookie I tried had a large piece of walnut shell in which kind of turned me off. The cookie was a little less crumbly than I’m used to, but it was good. The shortbread cookie with jam was pretty good. The ham & cheese croissant was really good with lots of gooey cheese & a generous amount of ham, yum! It was awesome warmed up in my microwave. The butterhorn was yummy, kind of like a cinnamon roll with very light cinnamon & a crumb topping.
I would totally come back here & I recommend a stop here if you are in the mood for goodies!

This is the best bakery ever! I believe its just called Pastry Heaven, because its now owned by a man named Jose who is very nice!
My family and I have been coming here for cakes for years! I’m definitely NOT a sweets person and usually I can’t stand cake. But when I come here, there isn’t a single thing that I don’t want to eat!
They have amazing bear claws, fruit filled danishes, eclaires, cookies, everything!
I’ve had their chocolate cake, princess cake, lemon cake, mocha cake, and a few other and they’re all absolutely out of this world and affordable on top of it! I can’t imagine getting my sweets anywhere else!

Our favorite bakery!
We’ve been going here for years and we get all of our cakes here.
My husband is addicted to the almond croissants and I LOVE the turkey/​swiss croissants.
When my dad and step mom come in from VA it’s their first stop. They too love the croissants, the scones and the Kolachi’s.
For the cakes we’ve had: princess cake, Mocha kahula cake, &black forest cake all are wonderful!!!
Please remember this isn’t costco, raley’s or any other commercial bakery. You are spending a bit more and you will get a product worth the money!
