    I thought I'd written a review about this place before but to my shock I had not…read more I have been coming here since the day they opened, infrequently beacuse I am diabetic but when I want to spoil my body with delicious sugar, honey, this is *IT*. Now I could tell you all about how perfectly tasty everything is. From the classic banana puddings (I prefer the caramel version myself,) to the cookies, to the pineapple upside-down mini cakes. Yes, I could tell you that. But I want to speak to something deeper. I want to speak to belonging and community; and to fairness. As a biracial person with a brown sister, I feel the pull to support black and brown businesses. It's not a secret. And sometimes you do it, and sometimes you privately think "Damn. I wanna be supportive but this place is a mess." Then there's Sweet Life. NOT that. FILLED with good product at a great price, delivered by owners and staff who actually give a damn about being loving and supportive to all different types of people. And did I mention the sweets are POPPIN'? And to that statement of fairness. Today I came in to place an order, and when the price came up, for a moment I thought "Damn. That is a lot higher than I remembered, but I am not about to question them. They set the price and that price is what they deserve." So I paid. But then I noticed there was more in my bag that I'd asked for, and that there had been a miscommunication. When I tell you that this miscommunication was corrected with swiftness *AND* a smile. No shade. No drama. Just an "Ooops, oh well, here's your refund on the balance." I know this seems very basic but we all know it isn't. We have all been in that awkward situation where as a customer we have to point out an error, and the vendor turns it into a Shakespearan tragedy. Not Sweet Life. "Oops. Sorry! Fixed. Love you." So, to recap: Stunningly delicious sweets. Prices fair as hell. Communicative, inclusive staff doing the right thing. You need to take those money dollers and haul your ass over here TODAY. Now...where did I put my insulin pen?

    As yall can probably see I am a loyal fan to this place and the fact that they were closed for so…read morelong really broke my heart. BUT I AM SO HAPPY TO REPORT THEY ARE BACK OPEN AND TASTE JUST AS GOOD! Go support this business so they don't have to worry about the doors closing again.

    Sooooo.... All was well with the cake tasting. Completely…read moreimpressed with everything...wE paid them and expected it to be the same as the tasting...it was not. Part of our cake was completely dry and barely edible...it was also the largest part of the cake that was given to our guests. Next...the one year cake. Why would you leave it unwrapped? We went on a two week honeymoon and it is stale and inedible. Sent an mail to the owners...no response! They got their money so what do they care. Won't waste my time or money...and have told every single friend that is getting married NOT to bother with this establishment.

    "NOT INTERESTED IN DOING THIS CAKE STYLE AS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO TRAVEL WITH"…read more I requested a cake tasting for my wedding cake. A simple four-tiered style cake. Rather then the owner wanting to work with me, she decides to shut me down and offer me no alternatives by simply saying she wasn't interested. This bakery has its own van and travels with cakes constantly. The website even says "customizable cakes' which is obviously not the case. If the owner was scared to travel with it, they would simply keep the tiers separate and put them together at the venue as MANY other bakeries do. Happily taking my services to CAKES BY ADELE who has no issues with my wedding cake.

    Piece of Cake - Their unprofessional response to my cake. Notice how they took other people's opinions over mine.

    We flew in from FL for a family birthday Party (one year old). On Friday, the girls were baking…read morecookies and tasked us with picking up the cake (and cannoli's).....and cautioned us over and over to be careful (lol). The cake was beautiful, neither of us wanted the responsibility to handle it.....our wives had scared us....one of the awesome ladies in the shop loaded the cake in the back seat of the truck for us. We arrive at the Party site....mission accomplished...sort of. As I exited the Truck, the family dog, a very excitable short haired German Pointer met me at the door. I got out to greet my niece I had not seen yet (leaving the door open) A moment later, I heard DOG and CAKE in the same outburst. You can do the math. Luckily, his damage (and taste of cake) was not a total disaster. My niece was upset, we assured her....we will fix it....not knowing if we could. Back on the road and put in a 911 Call to Whipped Sweet. Getting later in the day...there was no time for another cake. We arrive, Owner says...."this isn't bad...I can work with this, we expected much worse." She says " give me 10 or 15...be right back". The theme of the Cake was "One happy Camper". She sliced away the areas affected by the Dogs sweet tooth and created a river/waterfall of icing down the front of the cake. It looked amazing. She wanted no additional compensation....obviously a gratuity was in order. You just don't get that type of service these days....The cake and cannoli's were delicous.....and the shop had another story to add to the list. Highly recommend this spot...great people, great products. Support your local shops

    What went well was the service of a catered event I went to last Sunday…read more The food was delicious and the service was friendly. I want y to thank the service of the WHIPPRD SWEET SHOPPE for doing a fantastic job THANK YOU.
