What our menu is and what it is not.



Heaven Sent Dessert's restaurant

The Menu in the restaurant includes both old time and long time favorites together with an assortment of holiday or seasonal desserts. The menu does change regularly (not everything at once but a little here and a little there) to take advantage of seasonally fresh ingredients. In order to savor the complex flavors which many of our desserts and cakes contain, we provide a less sweet dessert than what you might be used to. The desserts include traditional American recipes, new fusion style recipes and many international recipes.
 Heaven Sent Dessert's coffeeThe coffee served at Heaven Sent is a special blend uniquely ours. We tasted a lot of coffees from different parts of the world, in a variety of roasts, and gradually developed what we feel is a rich, aromatic, never bitter but full bodied coffee. We are proud to say that our coffee has received high praise. It is available by the pound for purchase.

The Ingredients must all meet our high standards of quality and freshness. We search nationally when we can't find what we need locally.  In some cases we must hunt internationally. We always prefer to obtain our ingredients locally and to forge long term relationships with our suppliers.
We only use real butter, never substitutes. When we say vanilla bean, we mean vanilla bean and not synthetic vanilla. Similarly with all our ingredients. If you have a question about our ingredients, please ask. We are always glad to talk with you about our desserts.

fresh grapesThe Pricing reflects a number of factors; costly ingredients (e.g. higher quality cacao and chocolates, unusual preserves and compotes, fresher spices, fresh fruits, higher quality butters and sugars, etc.), time consuming preparation (our cakes and desserts are made from scratch, and each one is individually prepared and finished), and constant innovation. Our goal is to supply desserts of a quality found only in the finest restaurants at the lowest possible price while maintaining our standards.


Public Suggestions are appreciated. Fill out one of our comment cards or let our friendly servers know what's on your mind. We welcome feed back and our staff appreciate knowing that you liked what they prepared. We know that mistakes happen and that we are not perfect - therefore, please tell us when something was less than you expected. We want to please but have no way of putting something right if you don't tell us what was wrong.
