I've been going to candy haven ever since I was a little girl. They used to be a full felged candy store right on the shelves now housing jelly beans and m&ms. From all my birthdays, to my custom wedding cake and most recently my son's beautiful first birthday cake, they are my go to. Candy Haven is a Denton staple and simply just the best. I wish I could give them more stars. The kolaches are also exceptional and the donuts are sooo good.

Amazing cakes. They made my grandmas 80th birthday cake, with only a few days notice. Best cake from a local bakery I've had. I stop by whenever I'm in Denton to grab a cupcake lol

I was lucky to get a last-minute birthday cake-less than two hours' notice! They were very kind and accommodating and produced the perfect classic design I needed

Cookies were out of this world good! The iced one had to be the best iced sugar cookie I have ever hard. The cookie cake was super moist and delicious. Most definitely coming back for my baking needs!
