    Tiramisu Float
    Kheyt C.

    Quick service. Packaging was solid and had cute doodles/wording on them like SO PUFFING GOOD-- and it IS. Five stars for the creampuffs. I've tried a variety of their desserts in the past/in another location, and I've learned that the creampuffs are really the only ones that I would keep coming back for. My fave creampuffs are the Ube Cheesecake and Matcha (straight up matcha more than the dirty matcha one). They used to have a ferrero rocher chocolate on top of the ferrero creampuffs, which they don't anymore. I'm glad they've at least kept the ube cheesecake topping. The tiramisu float tasted better as I kept drinking and the topping got mixed into the coffee a bit more. A tip if going to order for multiple people: check out what flavors are available on their UberEats before driving to the store.

    Ube and s'mores cream puffs

    The service at this location was great! I ordered two cream puffs, a croissant and a coffee. I expected my coffee to take a little while to make, but it was pretty much ready by the time I was done paying. I ordered a tiramisu float, and the coffee was smooth and the topping was thick and delicious. The croissant had spinach and feta in it. The actual croissant was flaky with a hint of sweetness. The filling was a bit disappointing, as there wasn't much of it. As per usual, the cream puffs were light and not too sweet. I was a little disappointed though because they didn't have the cookies and cream one. Overall, they have great pastries and coffee. Their packaging is also high-quality and adorable!

    Vanilla Crepe Cake

    We ordered the vanilla crepe cake for our courthouse wedding, and it turned out to be one of the unexpected highlights of the night. The cake was absolutely delicious -- light, delicate, and not overly sweet, with just the right balance of cream and crepe layers that practically melted in your mouth. What really blew me away was how memorable it was for everyone else. Every single person who had a slice that evening called or texted the next day asking where we got it from. That's how you know it's something special. If you're looking for a wedding cake (or honestly, any celebration cake) that's elegant, understated, and guaranteed to impress, this vanilla crepe cake is it. Highly recommend -- it made our small courthouse wedding feel a little more magical. Thank you LOTS team for making our day!

    A great spot if you enjoy desserts that aren't too sweet. Coffee and tea is always great. On this visit, we got the Blueberry Lemon Bao and Dark Chocolate Pistachio tart. The blueberry lemon bao was just the right mix of sweet, tart, and buttery. The dark chocolate pistachio tart wasn't sweet enough for me, but my husband loved it. Both were $8-9. Just a warning that the logos on top aren't edible!

    I put an order in. The ladies were very helpful. My order was ready ahead of time. Pick up was quick and easy. They're very polite. Their pastry case was beautiful. The shop is small with limited seating.

    I frequent this cafe for a long time for the baked goods. The baked goods are sweet, but not overly sugary. It satisfies your sweet tooth without the side effects of ingesting a lot of sugar. The coffee drinks are high quality with some creative options. The location is small. There is some seating but it is very limited. The servers are always very nice and efficient. Give this place a try for high quality drinks and treats!

    Dubai Chocolate cream puff, Strawberry Cream puff

    Really enjoyed my stop here. The service was great. The cream puffs were delicious and fresh. Smelled sweet inside this little shop and they had a good variety of items. I really loved my cream puffs, and I'm sure you would too

    A charming coffee shop with a cute, cozy interior and genuinely welcoming service. The croissants are the standout, crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside. The coffee is decent, though slightly over-roasted. A lovely spot overall, especially for pastries.

    Perfect cream puffs and crepe cakes! If they had boba for the teas this would be a perfect dessert/snack location! It's a tiny storefront but serviceable and the decor is modern! The staff was helpful but there's no rush here...so come when you have a moment to enjoy and put up with a little wait.

    We came by to stop in for a quick treat and just happened to visit on their anniversary!! We didn't get any of the special rewards for early customers but what we had was still delicious.

    One of my favorite bakeries with the best cream puffs and crepe cakes. I love their ube flavored baked goods! Their drinks are great too, truly light on the sugar. Service is great and ambiance is clean.

    This was such a cute little bakery! We got the cookies and cream puff, the pistachio dark chocolate tart, crème brûlée cream puff, a snoopy seasonal cookie, an egg tart, and a strawberry matcha panna cotta. We also got a matcha latte, a berry rose latte & a pumpkin pie latte. The lady working behind the counter was so sweet & had a smile the entire time, even though the place was packed and a bit overwhelming. Everything was delicious and presented beautifully, I can't want to go back and try more things.

    Ask the Community - Light on the Sugar

    How does a bakery not open until 11am? There have been probably 30 occasions where I've wanted to go but they weren't open. Including right now.

    A lot of bakeries have staff that come in early to bake before open. That's just their hours of operation.

    Does Light on the Sugar happen to have any gluten-free options ? The macaroons maybe?

    They change their menu items pretty often but for the most part they offer gluten pastries goods. They did have a flan when I was there but it had a crust which you could possibly eat around

    Is this place good for studying?

    Aesthetically yes, functionally no

    Why is this marked for delivery when they do not offer delivery?

    I believe they are on uber eats

    Is this place permanently closed?

    No they are open

    I got to try out their limited edition orange chocolate cookie and oh my goodness it was everything…read moreI could ask for in a cookie I was worried that it would be completely covered in chocolate chips but it was topped full of candied pecans and orange pieces, and just a little sprinkle of salt and chocolate chips; the cookie was really fragrant with a strong scent of orange, and when biting into it, it was a soft chewy, pillowy texture with some chocolate chips inside. The candied pecans gave it a contrasting sugared crunch making it really addicting to eat, and the candied oranges rounded out the flavors. I hope they'll keep bringing this cookie back!

I tried the butterscotch cookie butter cookie which was so rich and delectable. You definitely need to share these cookies or save them for multiples sittings - they are big and very rich. I have tried the pistachio chocolate and coffee cake cookies before and all are delicious. I'd love to try the cakes in the future.

Immediate warm welcome, which I always appreciate, especially when I'm in a post-meal haze. Then I saw the pastry case... and wow. It was one of those moments where you genuinely consider making poor financial and dietary decisions just to try everything. The croissants alone? Massive. I'm talking oversized, beautifully layered, stuffed with different fillings and topped like they're competing for a prize. A younger, more reckless version of me would've ordered at least three without hesitation. My only "complaint" (if you can call it that) is that everything is so big. I wish they had mini versions--like a tasting lineup--because I wanted to try everything but also didn't want to commit to a full-size pastry I knew I couldn't finish. Shoutout to the people who can, though. I respect you. I kept it simple with a cappuccino plus an extra shot (non-negotiable at that point), and it was exactly what I needed. Bonus points for the service--they actually brought it out to the table, which felt like a small but appreciated touch. They've got both indoor and outdoor seating, so you can vibe however you're feeling. Overall, a perfect little stop to recharge and pretend you didn't just eat your body weight in carbs.
