A family, a vision, a bakery
From Dream to Table
La Joie Bakery was born from the vision of Kate & Bryan Grennell, a husband-and-wife team who believed that food could do more than fill a plate - it could create connection, spark conversation, and heal relationships. As parents of six, they understood the importance of creating space for intentional connection, and that space is always enriched by a great meal.
What began as just a "nudge" of an idea, shaped in the quiet hours between family life and late-night baking, has grown into a bakery defined by intention and excellence. Every pastry reflects a dedication to a craft they love, every guest is welcomed with warmth, and every detail - down to the last swirl of buttercream, is infused with heart.
From weddings and corporate event to everyday celebrations, La Joie has become a place where food meets meaning. The Grennells' mission is simple yet profound: to raise the standard of what a bakery can be, blending innovation with tradition, and serving love on a plate.
Every Pastry Tells a Story
Guests don't just shop at La Joie - they step into a story. Rooted in family and fueled by perseverance, the bakery blends French-inspired craft with local warmth, offering luxury that feels accessible and innovation that inspires creativity and sparks joy! More than a bakery, La Joie is a place to celebrate milestones, gather with friends, and feel seen - a place where community meets excellence, and every pastry carries promise.
From custom cakes to luxury pastries, la joie offers full service catering, French pastries, and a dessert experience!
