    Too busy to get a good photo but mini cupcakes on the left & mousse cups on the right (comes with tiny spoons)
    Justine S.

    So happy I stumbled upon Sugar Defined on IG. Thankful Chiyon was able to craft the delicious desserts for my baby's birthday. With so many options to choose from, I went with mini vanilla cupcakes; half with dulce de leche cream cheese frosting and other half Oreo frosting. They were delicious, not overly sweet, & the perfect bite. Our guests enjoyed them! I'm not a fan of ordering cupcakes (I prefer whole cakes) bc they are a hit or miss IMO, but these did not disappoint. We also ordered Belgian chocolate mousse cups which were decadent and the perfect sweet treat. I contacted her about a week out and she was already super booked (and sadly unable to fulfill my order for passionfruit mousse) so contact her wayy ahead of the suggested time. Ordering was simple - send your request (menu with pricing and forms are all online) she lets you know if she's able to fulfill & confirms the order then sends an invoice & lets you know when/where/time to pick up. Her style is minimalistic, with great quality and flavors - which I'm ALL about versus desserts that are gaudy with lack of taste. They are packaged with care. I would definitely order again for future events. Or maybe just because... been eyeing the lavender creme brûlée on her menu. ;)

    Such great cupcakes! We were also running late and the owner was very understanding and was so nice! We definitely recommend and will be ordering more!

    Purchased a beautiful unicorn cake for my little girls 7 yro birthday party . The cake was absolutely gorgeous and delicious. A little pricey at 75 dollars but for that made from scratch taste and the sheer beauty of it , it was worth every penny !

    How it was delivered: on time, safe and sound!

    Delicious goodies, beautiful presentation, easy to order, delivered as promised and on time. Thank you Sugar Defined. My family in Manassas is so thrilled at this holiday spread. This may just be a new tradition! Five stars!

    Lavender Lemon Cake

    This home bakery is my favorite in the DMV! I am so glad I discovered Sugar Defined - it has made these last few months bearable! The owner, Chiyon is extremely kind and often throws in little surprises in my order! She bakes with high-quality ingredients and bakes to order! I am obsessed with the lavender sugar cookies, mango strawberry cookies, as well as the soft and gooey brownie cookies! So divine, yet not too rich like other cookie places. My sister was thrilled to have her birthday cake from here: a beautiful 3 layer lavender lemon cake! It was fresh for several days after, we ate every slice. Also enjoyed my recent order of colorful fruity pebbles bars! I love supporting this small business, one dessert at a time!

    I was looking for someone to cater a baby shower I was throwing for my best friend and after a quick google search I found Sugar Defined to be the prettiest. I have to admit I was more interested in looking for some photo friendly desserts for the shower but luckily not only were they beautiful but tasty as well - the guests were all commenting about the delicious cheesecake frosting cupcakes but most importantly my best friend and guest of honor loved it and she's a chef so that meant a lot! Ordering was easy. The owner was very accommodating and even helped match the desserts with the color theme of the baby shower - she made pretty swirls of purple lavender on top of vanilla mini cupcakes. And pricing was more than fair for boutique quality desserts. Thank you Sugar Defined!! I highly recommend!

    I've been wanting to support small businesses during Clovid-19 so I looked up bakeries near me and it is the best decision I made! From the yummy cupcakes to matcha bread, everything we ordered was amazing! My husband really enjoyed the flans I ordered for him and I'm so excited to try other sweets made by them :) awesome customer service and sweets! I highly recommend them!

    Brownie Cookies
    Olivia V.

    Delicious and savory brownie cookies! I also ordered the Nutella banana bread and it was rich and moist! I took it to work and it was a huge success! Delivery was on time and secured packaging! Would definitely order again!

    The cupcakes were delicious and they stayed so fresh for four days (we savored them ) pickup was easy. Thank you we will order again for sure.

    Nutella cupcakes
    Carmen V.

    I initially thought this was a storefront business but it is actually a home based business. Chihi & Chiyon are sisters. To say they deliver excellent customer service is an understatement. I called the day before at 6pm & they happily took my order which was ready at 8:30am the following morning. I custom ordered vanilla cupcakes filled with nutella & topped with a nutella centered sugar cookie. Cupcakes were moist & delicious. No attention to detail was overlooked from the cupcakes to the simple yet elegant business logo. I highly recommend Sugar Defined & look forward to using them again.

    Best cupcakes ever!

    Delicious colorful vibrant soft serve! I've been here countless times with my kids! The purple Ube…read moreice cream and green coconutty Pandan ice cream twist is our favorite and love topping it off with Oreo crumbles or sprinkles, and let's not forget the Ube wafers and Taikayi waffle cones! The flavors rotate seasonally with different combo twist flavors and there's now a Mini 6 oz option as well as the 9 oz classic option with unlimited toppings! There are interesting seasonal flavors that are fun to try: - Honey Dew & Guava Cheesecake Twist - The summer flavor and sweetness of the honey dew complemented the exotic guava cheesecake flavor. - Sticky Mango Rice and Matcha Twist - While I enjoyed both flavors while the savoriness of the matcha helped balance out the sweetness of the Mango, they didn't pair that well together. I would get the Matcha separately and pair with Oreos and chocolate. - Peach Honey Goat Cheese - My favorite summer! The unique flavor is complex with a bit sweetness and a touch of savory. You can taste all of the ingredients. - Sakura: The pink cherry spring flavor wasn't that sweet and a bit tangy. - Kyoto Taro Cheesecake: A great combo of Taro and Matcha Cheesecake twist that's not too sweet and flavorful Ube Cheesecake flavor - A bit bland with a subtle cheesecake flavor. - Watermelon Basil - Fun flavor to try and tastes like a sour watermelon jollyrancher. It pairs well with the Peach Honey Goat Cheese flavor. - Black Sesame - Grey, savory flavor with a hint of bitterness. - Cookies and Cream flavor is a bit bland. - Classic Ube & Pandan Twist: I always resort back to my favorite default sweet and coconutty flavor. The Taikayi waffle cones are delicious. As the stuffed Taikyai is quite decadent, getting it hollow without any filling is the best way to go with the ice cream. Any type of filling with the ice cream becomes overload of sweetness. The Wicked Pandan Float (from the glass cooler) was delicious with layers of green coconut Pandan cheesecake custard pudding on a bed of Oreo Crumbs drizzled with salted caramel dulche leche. All of the flavors pair well together. I wasn't a fan of the Ube Dulce Leche or the Ube Oreo Floater. The Ube custard was a bit bland and didn't like the jelly topping. Skip the floats in the cooler and head straight to order the ice cream! Sign-up with the app and you can score deals and discounts via text and get notified of new flavors and when some flavors retire. My kids and I enjoyed love coming here and sharing a fun sundae! We came here a dozen times during the summer. There's both indoor and outdoor seating.

That said, the portions can be a bit overwhelming after a while, so I usually order the small size or split a signature with someone. Ordering is easy since everything is done through the kiosk at the front, which gives you plenty of time to customize your dessert without feeling rushed. The only downside is that there can be a bit of a wait before your order is ready, especially when it's busy. I'd definitely come back to try some of their other desserts. One tip: if you've never had pandan before, this probably isn't the place for your first introduction. The pandan flavor is quite bold and can be an acquired taste.

Wife and I sat at the Chef's Counter for a truly wonderful meal last night. The menu is exceptional, five courses, several with two options, and the progression was just perfect. We really loved all of the dishes, but for sure the ravioli with wild asparagus and ramps is one I will remember for a long time. The octopus was also a memorable dish, and the poussin was complex, layer after layer of flavor and the salt level was so good...just perfect food, perfectly executed. Oh, and shout out to the owner's dad, who is in his 90s and makes the bread, a rich sourdough, served warm, that has a 50 year old starter at its essence. Yum. We did the wine pairings and I def recommend. Some really good wines, curated from small vineyards globally, matched perfectly and well presented. The sommelier nailed it. We also just loved the service. Nice touches pre arrival, they are expecting you when you arrive and there's a lovely personal touch and welcoming feel. The ambience is warm, and you can hear and talk and it does feel like you're at a dinner party with friends and family. Finally, shout out to the chefs and servers. Knowledgable, conversational, and charming. We really enjoyed the Chef's Counter and the entire experience. Kudos to Chef Jon Krinn and his family for creating this masterpiece of a restaurant. It is Michelin star worthy, and we cannot wait to go back.

I mean shame on them because they deserve some seriously high praise. And honestly, they pulled out all the stops for their recent New Years Eve dining experience - I'm talking caviar, white truffle, A5 wagyu, a custom cocktail (because they know I like gin and yuzu) and a painfully decadent dessert - What a way to send out 2025! I mean, honestly, the meal was exquisite and so perfectly executed. Each dish is crafted with a passion and care for food that absolutely shines. I mean the Foie Gras (sp??) - I don't even really like the stuff, put the way they sauteed it, put it on top of some sort of savory cake and slathered it with this balsamic gastrique - it was like bacon and pancakes smothered in maple syrup just amplified to 100. Bottom line: I would eat this every day (and amplify my weight by 100 too). The snow crab, I don't know if it's the care in selecting the product or the techniques used to prepare it (probably both ), but they packed so much crab flavor into that dish! And the dark chocolate cheesecake, it was magic that can make something so dark, so bold, so rich feel so light when you are eating it. This was just one specific meal here, but I am surprised and delighted every time we get the privilege to dine at Elyse. It's not just the food, it's the atmosphere and the attention of the staff. They remember details from your previous visits, any special notes from your reservation and really tailor the experience to you, making it all that much more special on your special night out

I ordered from a kiosk but you can order in person as well. I ended up getting the mango pomelo drink and added cheese foam. The cheese foam is pretty good, but maybe a little sweeter than I would like. It didn't necessarily add anything to this drink in my opinion so I would probably leave it off next time. I had never had sago before. I think it was not bad but I prefer something with more texture like boba. The slush part was really good and had a slight coconut flavor which was nice, and it tasted very fresh. While I liked the drink, if I could I would get that slush with boba instead of sago. I think it could be that I just don't love sago that much, not that the sago is necessarily bad here. But I would need to try more sago from other places to make that determination. I think I would come back here again.

The ambiance inside is beautiful, ideal for anyone looking for a good Instagram picture. There's so many angles and details so that no matter where you're sitting, there's a good vibe. There's also gorgeous seating outside since it can get crowded. For food, you order from the front and they'll call you when the food is ready. We ordered the dubai gelato and pistachio lokmas. Both were presented tastefully to make sure our eyes and cameras wanted to eat before our stomachs. The dubai gelato was a quality dessert with a good ratio of milk: cream. The pistachio flavor was evident on top, but it was just a kinda tart vanilla ice cream with toppings. I did like it, however, and it paired well with the lokmas. The lokmas were fried to perfection, a nice amount of chewy, and covered with a good ratio of pistachio cream. They were a decent size and conducive to sharing. The prices of everything, overall, was pretty expensive, but the quality definitely made up for it. I'd recommend this cafe to someone looking for a unique sweet treat, catching up with a group of girl friends of 2-4 people, or for a first date!

The food is in appealing display cases downstairs. The stand out pastries for me are the tiramisu filled cronuts. Drinks wise, they have the typical cafe fare but excitingly so they also have Colombe on draft which I will always be excited about. I recommend this place to grab a snack and socialize!
