National Croissant Day

Buttery and flaky croissants
Want to know a little-known-secret and fun fact ?
Croissants should be consumed within the first 5 hours of baking for optimal enjoyment. This is why we deliver our croissants within minutes of removing them from the oven.
We begin each day with scratch-made dough, folding in layers of butter and tucking a bit of chocolate or almond filling into each croissant. We bake each pastry to perfection, box and deliver them warm. They've even earned recognition as "The best croissants in The Woodlands" according to a loyal customer at Conduit Coffee.
Find our croissants at the following local coffeeshops:
- Nordstrom Houston Galleria and Nordstrom Woodlands, Tx. Ebars
- EQ Heights
- Rice Coffeehouse at Rice University
- Conduit Coffee in The Woodlands, Texas
To celebrate National Croissant Day, we are giving you a bonus gift with any purchase. Please see details below.
Bon appetite!
Pu mpkin spice season has officially arrived, and at Chic Sweets Bakery in Northwest Houston, we’re celebrating with one of our most beloved treats—Pumpkin Spice Bars. These bars are soft, flavorful, and topped with sweet cream cheese frosting, making them the perfect way to welcome autumn. Whether you’re cozying up at home or sharing with friends, Pumpkin Spice Bars bring comfort and joy with every bite. The popularity of pumpkin spice has grown tremendously over the years, but our recipe holds true to the homemade flavors Houston families love. With just the right balance of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, each bar tastes like a slice of pumpkin pie in handheld form. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the season without waiting for Thanksgiving dinner. At Chic Sweets Bakery, we bake Pumpkin Spice Bars fresh for our 1960/Champions neighbors every fall. They’ve become a tradition for many of our customers, who stop by year after year as soon as they return to the menu. We’re proud to keep that tradition alive, honoring both the flavor of the season and the community that supports us. Pumpkin Spice Bars are also versatile—they make wonderful additions to office gatherings, school events, and weekend brunch tables. If you’re hosting guests, bringing a tray of these bars guarantees you’ll leave with an empty dish and plenty of compliments. They’re easy to serve, easy to share, and impossible to resist. Our bakery loves being part of Houston’s fall celebrations, from football season get-togethers to church functions and neighborhood block parties. Pumpkin Spice Bars are one of those desserts that make everyone smile, no matter the occasion. They capture the warmth of fall in each delicious square. If you’re craving the flavor of autumn, stop by Chic Sweets Bakery in the 1960/Champions area today. Whether you take home a few bars for yourself or a box to share, our Pumpkin Spice Bars are the ultimate fall dessert for Houstonians who love seasonal sweets.
A t Chic Sweets Bakery , we know how much preparation it takes to get kids ready to learn. As a community-rooted business — and a former teacher myself — I understand that back-to-school season can bring both excitement and stress, especially for families facing financial challenges. That’s why we hosted our Annual Back-to-School Drive this month, right here at the bakery. And let me tell you — the love shown by our community? Sweet doesn’t even begin to describe it. 🛍️ What We Collected With your help, we were able to collect: Over 75 backpacks 200+ packs of pencils, crayons, and notebooks Dozens of lunchboxes, glue sticks, and classroom supplies Gift cards for uniforms and shoes Every single item donated went to local students in need — many of them right here in our own neighborhood, in Klein and Aldine ISD schools. 💛 Why It Matters to Us Before I was known as The Lemon Bar Lady, I was “Ms.” in the classroom. I’ve seen firsthand how a student’s confidence can skyrocket when they walk into school feeling prepared and supported. It’s not just about supplies — it’s about dignity, pride, and hope. 🍪 Sweet Incentives for a Good Cause As a little thank-you, we offered a free cookie to every customer who dropped off supplies — and a few surprises for those who went the extra mile. We also created a special "Back-to-School Box" filled with kid-friendly treats and donated 100% of those proceeds to purchasing supplies for local schools. 📸 Community Moments From smiling kids picking out their favorite backpacks to customers dropping off entire bags of supplies, the drive became a beautiful reflection of what our bakery is really about: love in every layer — whether it’s lemon bars or acts of kindness. (You can scroll through some of our favorite moments on our Instagram @ChicSweetsBakery 📷) ✨ Thank You To every customer who donated, shared the word, or simply stopped in to cheer us on — thank you. Your generosity made a real difference. Stay Connected We’ll continue hosting seasonal drives and community events, so be sure to sign up for our email list or follow us on social media to stay in the loop. Giving back is baked into everything we do — and we’re just getting started. Until next time, stay sweet 💛 – The Lemon Bar Lady
