    AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO CONVERTIBLE NOTE

    THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO CONVERTIBLE NOTE (the "Amendment") is entered into
by and between Java Centrale, Inc., a California corporation (the "Borrower")
and Legong Investments, N.V., a Netherlands Antilles corporation ("Legong"), to
be effective as of July 10, 1997 (the "Effective Date").


                                   R E C I T A L S

    A.   On or about December 15, 1995 the Borrower borrowed Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000) from Legong pursuant to a Convertible Note (the "Note") and
certain related agreements including a Registration Rights Agreement and a Note
Purchase Agreement (the "Related Agreements").

    B.   The Note included provisions which allowed Legong to convert portions
of the principal balance thereof into shares of the Borrower's common stock,
pursuant to which Legong has from time to time so converted a total of One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in principal balance of the Note, leaving a
remaining principal balance, as of the date of this Amendment, of One Million
Dollars ($1,000,000.00).

    C.   The parties now wish to amend the Note in several respects. As so
amended, the parties intend to secure the Note, pursuant to a Security Agreement
of even date herewith, by granting Legong a security interest in all of the
outstanding shares of Borrower's wholly-owned subsidiary Paradise Bakery, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation ("PBI").


                                  A G R E E M E N T

    NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
covenants and other conditions contained herein, and for other good and valuable
consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is by all parties hereto
acknowledged and accepted, the parties do agree as follows:

    1.   CURRENT PRINCIPAL BALANCE OF THE NOTE; INCREASE IN PRINCIPAL BALANCE.

         (a) As of the date of this Amendment the current principal balance
owing on the Note is One Million, One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,000,000).

         (b)  In consideration of this Amendment, the principal balance of the
Note shall for all purposes hereafter be deemed increased by (i) Forty-Four
Thousand, Seven Hundred Dollars ($44,700), which is the amount of all accrued
and unpaid interest on the Note from December 15, 1996 to date, plus (ii) Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), so that commencing with the date of

         (b)  Borrower shall have the right, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to extend the Adjusted Maturity Date to a later date; PROVIDED,
