La Joie (which means "joy" in French), started in our hearts many many years ago. We have always been about strengthening families and serving our community through food service. Our own families have rich heritage gathering around the tables at mealtime, creating memories together while enjoying international multi-cultural cuisine. Kate developed a love for creating pastries, while Bryan worked his craft on the grill and creating memorable sauces and dips. Together, with their six children, they dreamed of one day sharing their passion with others. From small events to large scale weddings and corporate events, they found their way into dreaming of a brick and mortar storefront. Redding
As they grew, more and more people were experiencing pastries in a new way - such, that they began to notice a pattern of "joie" as people tasted food and pastry that was created with love. Now, they are embarking on fulfilling yet another dream - opening a storefront location in a city that they have come to love and call home - in Redding, CA.
"I believe that La Joie provides a place for people to experience love on a plate - that they can come in and feel at home. That we can actually taste and see small measures of joy and delight. I think its possible for pastries to bring connection and healing to our hearts - you know, those parts of us that have been shut down, snuffed out, forgotten or ignored. Sometimes its as simple as eating something glorious for us to re-connect with our inner child and find "la joie".

Along with our traditional morning pastries like scones, croissants, and cinnamon rolls, we also offer specialized and unique French pastries, hard to find in our region! bakery near me
Our signature pate a choux (cream puff) recipe filled with a variety of unique mousses and fruit compotes. Flavors vary by season and request. desserts in redding
A nod to the French classic, our Mille-feuille is layers and layers of golden puff pastry dough filled with fresh fruits and mascarpone cream. We have variations of this pastry, as well as its original form, served with layers of custard and fresh berries.
Our personal favorite, the Koiugn-amann (pronounced queen - ah mahn), is our laminated butter dough sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar in each layer, and then baked to golden carmelized perfection. This lightly sweet pastry might just change your life.
Make a croissant, but better. The Renossant is La Joie's version of a croissant, renovated and modernized. Don't get us wrong, the classic will stand the test of time for ages to come...but we like to shake things up a bit. The Renossant is a large, round, laminated butter dough, filled with creams and custards and pralines.
Our signature scones are made with simplicity. Cold butter, flour, a hint of sugar, and buttermilk are the main stars in these rich and flaky, lightly sweet pockets of delight! From our bacon cheddar green Chile savory scone, to our traditional blueberry scone, or our London Biscuit, we invite you to taste the difference!
These items are a sample of what we will have available on our menu
