The customer service is incredible - KASEY YOU ARE AMAZING!!! I was having so many issues placing an order for delivery from NY for my friends birthday and I'm so happy I found this bakery online. Kasey made everything so stress free! She was extremely professional, friendly, helpful, detail-orientated and responsive. I wanted a specific assortment of cupcakes with a personalized note which she executed perfectly!! It was also delivered in a timely matter! My friend kept bringing up how insanely delicious the cupcakes are were. I'm so happy that she has also found a new go-to neighborhood bakery! Thank you again, Kasey, for being so amazing!!

This place is awesome. Friendly and helpful staff. Place is clean and all the goodies were delish. Can't wait to go back. Almond pound cake did not disappoint. Nommmm...

What a gem of a place! Stopped by here to get a gift dessert at short notice, and the nice gentleman at the counter really took time to help us out - he went above and beyond to help us pick the right gift that would last the distance (which it did). They have a large variety of available cakes (unlike most bakeries which require custom orders in advance), cupcakes and desserts. Their cupcakes at least were delicious (can't wait to go back and get their chocolate peanut butter cupcakes again!).

My daughter in law wanted to surprise my son with a grooms cake at their wedding and asked for my help. I called the bakery and they said to stop in with pictures or email them of what I was looking for. My husband and I stopped in and ordered the cake and paid for it. About a week later I got a phone call that they were sorry but they were unable to make the cake because they didn't have a baker on Sunday and we needed the cake for a Monday wedding and that they would refund me. When we ordered the cake we told the woman the date and the location of the reception - specifically that is was on Monday. Guess they didn't want our business. Luckily, I found someone else in Kennett that made it for 1/2 the cost and delivered it for free !!

I've stopped in here 3 times now and have been pleased every time both with the products and the service!
My first time stopping in was around Valentine's Day, I got 4 different mini cheesecakes and took them home to share with my son and husband and we all really enjoyed them. The second time I stopped in on a whim, needing to pick up a last minute birthday cake for my husband. There were 4 different cakes in the display to choose from, all a little bigger than I needed but I believe this is their standard cake size (feeds 16) all 4 cakes looked really good. They had snickers, chocolate cream, Oreo & dulce de leche. My son suggested we go with the snickers cake and so we did. My husband was reallllly happy we made that choice. The next day we took a 1/4 of the cake to a small bday celebration for my grand mom and everyone who had it there loved it too!! I heard nothing but good things. Today my husband and I had lunch next door and decided to pop in after for a snack. We picked 5 different small items. 2 mini cheesecakes, a bombe, a caramel brownie and mini pecan pie. Everything looks AMAZING. So far we've had the caramel brownie and it's one of the best brownies I've ever had, if not the best. I plan to order pies from here for the holidays and any future birthday cakes as well!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ajeenah S.SoMa, San Francisco, CA02Jul 20, 2023
The service is excellent and the baked goods are delicious and truly decorated well. An excellent place to go for cheesecake or delicious birthday or any occasion cakes. I highly recommend this bakery.

I ordered a specific birthday cake on 6/1, paid in full up front. Went to pick it up today two weeks later - they have no cake & no record of my order.
The young girl behind the counter was very apologetic & helpful, but this wasn't her fault. I placed my order with a middle aged gentleman who I guess forgot to file it?
They refunded me the original purchase amount & sold me a display cake & some candles at full price.
I'm not generally one to leave reviews like this, but my partner has been talking about this cake forever, it's literally the only thing she wanted for her birthday.
We live a few blocks from the shop & have gotten numerous cakes & treats here over the years. This isn't their first mistake in my experiences there, but it's by far their biggest, & most definitely their last with me.
Absolute garbage. You're much better off going to a business that actually cares, or really just one that makes cakes when hired to.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Amanda B.Garnet Valley, PA021May 18, 2023
Thank you so much for my son's birthday cake yesterday. He absolutely loved it! We've gotten a lot of cakes from you in the past few years, but this was the first custom cake I've ordered and it was perfect. I can't thank you enough.

Sweet Something's has UNREAL customer service.
I work for a tech company in CA and they were able to create and deliver this cake to a client all through email and a quick phone call.
The turn around time was FAST! Great quality and image!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Tamika H.Phoenixville, PA01Oct 29, 2023
Where do I start... I ordered my daughters 11th birthday cake and cake pops from sweet something's 2 and 1/2 weeks in advance. I sent them photos and spoke with Lee regarding the order and it was stated that they could recreate all items without any problems. One day before picking up my order I received the call from Lee stating that they were unable to recreate the cake pops as ordered. I was truly disappointed in the lack of professionalism and customer service notifying me one day prior to pick it up my order. As stated truly I would have honored and preferred a call immediately after putting in my order as opposed to receiving a call one day prior to my pickup.
Although leave offered to provide a refund for the cake pops no other courtesies were extended. Although the designs on my cake pop was not as ordered the cake pops design was beautiful and so I decided not to cancel the order and kept the cake pops. Would I recommend or order from sweet something's again I'm really not sure because of how my order was handled. It's such a shame because the cake was immensely moist and delicious but the customer service in the unexpected call is not acceptable!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Angela D.East Rutherford, NJ1103Apr 29, 2023
