As you've seen
here and
here, I have an intense sweet tooth and I'm no stranger to Los Angeles bakeries. I've tried countless pies, cakes, cupcakes, and macarons from almost every known bakery in the area and have continued to hold
Sweet Lady Jane in the highest regard on the matter. Not only are their dense, moist, flavorful cakes the best in town but their pies are second to none. Gabe is a pie connoisseur and requested blueberry pie as his "grooms cake" for our wedding a few years ago, so we've tried every pie in town. The pie from Sweet Lady Jane was in a class of its own, according to Gabe. No other store bought pie could even come close and we have consistently returned to the bakery for pies (every year for Gabe's birthday and any other special occasion) and cakes (make sure to try the triple berry cake). What are your "special occasion desserts"?

Wow, look at that birthday pie! Holy moly.
Lately, I've been a little obsessed with lemon meringue pie. Tangy lemon and chewy meringue. It's a recipe for disaster.
staring at my half packed bag and wishing i could break into this place and eat a cake...uh-oh val. we better get cracking on that retirement plan.

Valerie-oh that triple berry cake and the birthday pie look amazing. I love celebrating with cheesecake, fruit tarts, flourless chocolate cakes, oh and the list goes on!

Mmmmm....dessert....
My favorite thing I made recently came from Orangette - it was her banana bread with chocolate chips and crystallized ginger, with home made whipped cream on top. Oh. So. Good.
Merci,

Thank you for the heads up on this bakery... I need to start a list of "places to visit in your own backyard!"
My favorite dessert is strawberry shortcake, but we also like berry or peach cobbler, apple pie or crisps... and LOVE ice cream- especially homemade:).

Oh wow. I think I just gained five pounds looking at those amazing desserts. The triple berry cake and the cappuchino cheesecake looked particularly tasty!
Oh, Sweet Lady Jane! The best pies on the west coast!
That is QUITE the pie! All of these desserts look sooo delectable! Excuse me while I go eat an apple in an attempt to stay away from full-on baking a cake and eating the whole thing...

Aww, I wished I lived by you, just so I could eat there! Now I'm craving sweets for lunch. ;)
Ok that triple berry cake looks like complete perfection. I will have to check this out! :)
Good grief I kind of want to move in to Sweet Lady Jane - everything looks phenom! My special occasion dessert is New York Style Cheesecake. One year I ate an entire one myself - not in one sitting, of course; it took a few days!! :P
I'm having a major sugar rush just looking at all of this! It looks delish! I'll have to stop there next time I'm in LA. My waist might not that you for the info but I most certainly do :) xoxo
yum yum yum!
gosh, i need to run to a bakery ASAP
I have eaten their cakes before and they are absolutely amazing! I got my graduation cake from law school there. Thanks for the reminder on this amazing place! I am heading there in November.

TO DIE FOR! Dessert should be required at all work meetings. I think it would really improve productivity or at least make them more bearable lol.
That all looks amazing. I don't think it's helping that I haven't had lunch yet!
how cute that his grooms cake was a blueberry pie! my favorite dessert is ice cream ;)
Oooooh looks Delish!
