Greeted immediately and no line. Super clean. I ordered glazed donuts and petite fours. I quickly noticed one pan of donuts looked sad and almost like yesterdays. Well that may have been what I got because the icing was already off and they were a bit chewy. Kinda buttery dough which I think would have been great. These were also the smallest donut I've ever had. They honestly were just ok. I would definitely go back because I feel like they have to be fresh and I went in around noon. Although I didn't care for the petite four I will try a few an other things next time.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this baker Cindy who owns Sweet Joy Bakery. I ordered a…read morebeautiful coconut cake all the way from sunny California for my dad's 80th birthday in Pineville, Louisiana, and everything about the experience was absolutely perfect. From the ordering process to the communication, the care that went into making the cake, and the delivery, everything was handled with such professionalism and attention to detail. The cake arrived safely and looked absolutely beautiful--and most importantly, it tasted amazing! My dad loved the coconut cake. It made his 80th birthday celebration even more special, and I am so grateful to Cindy for helping us create such a memorable moment from so many miles away. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about their work and goes above and beyond for their customers, I highly recommend Sweet Joy Bakery. Thank you for making my dad's 80th birthday so sweet and memorable!

Tried a breakfast item this morning. I ordered their 3 egg steak omelette which came with a little…read moresour cream and a little salsa. It was a little pricey $10.70. It should come with the toast or hash brown. Never had sour cream on an omelette but wanted to try it. I also ordered a slice of toast. It was very good. I ordered their strawberry biscuit to eat tomorrow for breakfast. The omelette and toast was very good. I would suggest lining the container you serve it in because it was getting a little soggy. Customer service was great and apologized for the delay. You should have 2 working up front. Look forward to my next visit.

This time I got a bag of donut holes and they came with a toy! Love that surprise. My main purchase is always the boudin kolache. I love the boudin they use and the way the dough is wrapped around it. Some places use the same yeast dough for their savory kolaches and I like the way Donuts Coffee and Cream does theirs best. Warning: everything goes fast so I have called in advance and asked them to set aside a kolache for me. There is a small eating area inside so you don't have to order takeout only.

I considered going through the drive through but since I had never been there before I'd have been looking at the menu holding up progress so I just went inside for a look at all what was left in the way of donuts, biscuits, and kolache. for mid morning there was still a good selection in the cases: I was pleased to find an assortment of conventionally frosted and glazed yeasts and cakes plus turnovers, muffins, and donut seeds alongside a selection of kolaches: sausage, boudin, cheesey things... and some breakfasty biscuits too :-) old fashioned, glazed, sausage kolache and a SEC biscuit got me through the day. seems like a lot but that was all of it all the way to Atlanta where I had a more sensible but tedious breakfast the following morning. donuts are light and taste like donuts (not oil, yea!!) the old fashioned is heavy on icing but not ridiculously so. kolache is firm but not stiff and a bit sweet to help savor the meats. not really impressed with the biscuit but I had it cold with a packet of mustard about eight hours after leaving the shop so that's probably more my fault than theirs to be honest ;-) so yeah, if I had a whirl-o-meter Donuts, Coffee & More would be spinning it pretty hard. if you're near here go here but watch out for cross traffic because apparently headlights are optional in the rain.

Atwoods of Alexandria reminds me of so many bakeries in Louisiana (#1), these places are almost…read morealways popular within the community with an endless plethora of sweets with lots of other options in between. Whether it's an occasional treat, a special occasion, or simply lunch, Atwood's is always a great option. Locals are here for all sorts of reasons: morning coffee, freshly baked pastries (croissants are on point), sandwich for lunch, dessert anytime, and cake. The latter is a big one, especially during this time of year, i.e. Mardi Gras. Their regular king cake with cream cheese is most definitely a hit. I wouldn't hesitate to get a custom cake ordered here and I think their prices are still reasonable. They also have a number of small, personalized desserts, and also have a solid variety of gelato and cookies as well. I appreciate their attention to seasonal items. It's super cute on the outside, and despite not being overly spacious, has enough tables for small groups to enjoy a drink and a small dessert treat. Parking is plentiful, they accept credit cards, and they're a women-owned establishment. The times can get tricky since they close on Sundays and Mondays and are only open till 2pm for midweek. From Thursday-Saturday, they're open till 9:00pm. __________ (#1) A lot like Ambrosia (https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-ambrosia-bakery-baton-rouge-2) in Baton Rouge or Amore (https://www.yelp.com/biz/amore-bakery-and-cafe-gretna) in NOLA.

They had one no sugar added choice frozen yogurt but were unable to show us a nutritional card or listing for the item so we could see how much sugar and carbs was in it. *please note* to avoid confusion-- sugar free and no sugar added are not the same thing. I am not diabetic- but this is an import distinction for diabetics as well as those pursuing a ketogenic or low carb diet. Thank you to the owner, Nicole, for explanation of no sugar added options and availability at their yogurt shop.

Sometimes though I think her eyes are bigger than her stomach because we fill up our cups and then they are melted and we are full before we can finish, heh. They also have a nice variety of flavors and toppings. One down side is they are pretty pricey per ounce weighed. Even with my Yelp check ins the prices are still substantially higher than other Yogurt and ice cream shops I frequent.
