    Sweet Potato Cheesecake
    J B.

    I found the spot off the beating path and the neighborhood where my Airbnb was located. I was looking for something sweet and fresh and I searched you opened. I found this spot and I was not disappointed. I got in 15 minutes before they closed and they only had a few selections left and I chose the sweet potato cheesecake which was a whole experience lol. The slice was $8 and it was well worth it. It taste like something out of cheesecake factory look better. It was the perfect blend of sweet potato and cream cheese with a delicious crust. The staff was very friendly and help me make a selection and they were very patient considering they were closing soon. This is definitely a spot. I would visit again when in Dallas

    Frozen lemonade- strawberry mint, regular lemonade and peach mango

    So good! If y'all like a sweet treat this is the spot! They have frozen lemonade - all kinds of unique cookies and cupcakes! And they are delicious! Such a gem and must try if you're in Dallas!

    Carnell & Crystal are a mom and daughter power house duo! Both whippin' it up in the kitchen with their bomb ass desserts. And both ladies were a pure joy to talk to with excellent customer service. Treated me like royalty even though I walked in two minutes before closing for an organization meeting... a goodies pickup for the squad! I sampled some fresh strawberry mint/regular lemonade mixed together. All it was missing was a shot of D'usse, Bumbu or some brown for certain! I'll definitely be pulling up during the summer for this little combo mama put me on to! They've literally got all the desserts you can think of. Peach Cobbler, Banana Pudding, a variety of flavored Cheesecake and Pies, cookies (stuffed with cream filling) and they even offer Vegan cupcakes! I've mentioned before my love for cheesecakes. My banana pudding cheesecake (BPC) was soooooo good, I literally story'd about it while I was eating it. The best BPC I've had in town (yes better than Val's)! The regular banana pudding was just as good too. I am obsessed with it because the custard seems like it's from scratch and there were little to no bananas involved!!! I prefer no bananas cause they get all soggy and leave banana slime pools in my pudding :/ The Strawberry Crumble Cupcake was really good. What I enjoyed the most was the cream filling (in all the cupcakes). It was the additional moisture needed but the strawberry flavor was banging. I've got the Nutty Brittle Cupcake, Red Velvet and Cookies n Creme Cookie to try and I'll update my review after each bite! Interior is decorated befittingly for a dessert shop with pinks and pops of glitter and prints. Be sure to support this black owned business! Update 1: late midnight snack craving ended up demolishing the red velvet cookie. Soft, crunchy edges and just melt in your mouth goodness!

    Never have I ever thought that I could combine my two favorite desserts into one but @carnells_cakery accomplished this task! This is a peach cobbler cheesecake and it took a lot of power not to eat this in the store! This cheesecake is super flavorful with big chunks of peaches and that good cobbler crust (what's cobbler without crust) and a smooth, creamy cheesecake. This will definitely take care of your sweet tooth. This dessert store is #BlackOwned in South Dallas and they serve many varieties of cheesecakes and cupcakes infused with cookies on top. The store is super cute and the customer service is absolutely the best. I felt at home and comfortable knowing I was about to indulge in some deliciousness! Make sure you try them out if you're needing to get that sweet tooth taken care of!

I went in, talked to the employees, asked which pies were shelf stable and could survive a trip to Austin, and after being told which, I promised I'd come back after dinner. When I came back, they were out of the apple, so I bought a pumpkin pie, or as it's known on the menu, Drop Dead Gourdgeous, which, as a person who loves word play, already gives this place a 5/5. The employees were so incredibly helpful and kind, and being able to come here and get something for my friends in Austin made this worth transporting everything from Dallas to Austin worth it. I don't know if they do, but I really hope they deliver frozen pies, because even in California, they would have a customer for life out here because of their hospitality and amazing customer service. The place wasn't too loud since they were in the last 90 minutes or so of business hours, but it was great because I got to ask them all of the questions I needed. If they don't deliver frozen pies, then I will definitely find my way back here one day.

Our group ordered different pies and we got to get a taste of everything. They were all delicious. Loved the Bonnie & Pie'd. The pies are made fresh with clean ingredients. The establishment offers limited seating and the decor is inviting and comfortable. Service is fast and to-go orders are packed well. Overall a wonderful place to enjoy some desserts. Not a cheap option for sure but you get value for the money you pay. Definitely recommend visiting the location.

It had a nice, warm, and welcoming feel, which made it a comfortable spot to sit and enjoy a quick treat. The staff was attentive and took my order pretty quickly, which I appreciated. My Americano came out hot and had a really good bold flavor. I love adding cream to my coffee, and once I did, it balanced out that strong kick perfectly. The beignets were made fresh to order and took about 7 minutes to come out. They were hot, soft, and very fluffy, almost more similar to a donut than a traditional beignet. Since most of my beignet experience comes from New Orleans, Louisiana, I definitely had a different texture in mind going in. I personally wish they had been a little crispier, especially around the edges, but they were still decent and enjoyable. Overall, I had a good experience. Between the welcoming atmosphere, attentive service, good coffee, and fresh beignets, I would definitely try Le Bon Temps again without hesitation.

There also wasn't much parking nearby and I got a ticket from parking in a nearby lot.

The story she shared with us that day was truly inspiring, it was clear that this wasn't just a business, but a passion built from purpose and heart. Recently, I made the drive to her current shop in Irving, Texas. It's a bit of a distance for me, but I truly enjoy supporting businesses like this. The new location is such a step up cute, welcoming, and in a great area.
