About Us

Executive Pastry Chef, Denise started More Sweets as a way to create a new and personal bakery experience. Denise attended the University of California, Davis where she not only earned a B.A. in Art History, but took the trip of lifetime to the South of France for a study abroad program. While she was primarily there to study Art History, she utilized every second she was not in class to try all the pastries and sweets around the local area. Immediately upon returning home, Denise enrolled in culinary school at Le Cordon Bleu in Pasadena. Although she received an Occupational Studies degree in Culinary Arts, her work in the restaurant industry made its way to the sweet side of the kitchen. Working along pastry chefs, Denise decided to move to a bakery and  learned the ins and outs of the bakery life. Over time, More Sweets quietly began. As a side business, More Sweets was a creative outlet Denise could build and structure as her dream bakery. 

Ultimately in 2018, Denise completely devoted herself to More Sweets. With every second and thought, More Sweets quickly began building up its brand and establishing itself as a prominent home bakery in the San Gabriel Valley. Soon More Sweets was selling at local Farmer Markets, (Covina, Mt. Sac and San Dimas). Here, Denise and More Sweets got to interact with customers on a daily level and built many lasting relationships. Denise ventured into working with local golf courses and other local party venues. This helped kept More Sweets busy all 2019. 

At  the  end  of  2019,  More  Sweets  signed  a  lease  for  their  first  storefront  location.  On  the  perfect  corner  in  beautiful  Glendora,  CA,  More  Sweets  was  ready  to  start  2020  with  a  bang.  Unfortunately,  there  were  other  plans  that  went  on  around  the  world.  Shut  down  and  delayed  for  almost  a  year,  More  Sweets  had  to  patiently  wait  for  their  grand  opening.  Trying  to  use  this  time,  Denise  worked  on  anything  and  everything  she  could  hope  to  fill  her  bakery  display  cases  with.  

Finally,  on  March  27,  2021,  More  Sweets  opened  to  the  public.  Excited  and  overcome  with  joy,  Denise  finally  was  able  to  welcome  everyone  into  her  dream  bakery!  

More  Sweets is just  beginning.  Follow  along  on  our  Sweet journey  and  come  visit  us  soon!
