Cakes, cupcakes and cookies were on display. You can sit down if that's your thing. Although, it is pretty small. I tried the butter pound cake it was so moist and dense, exactly what a pound cake should be! My lady got the pound cake and I got the red velvet cake! It was moist and had the perfect amount of cocoa. It was topped with cream cheese icing, the creamy icing was also layered in between the cake! If you're looking for good cake this is the spot.

I ended up getting a few things, a pecan chewie, which was so delicious. The flavor was great and the texture was perfect and soft. I also got a white cake which was made with an apple jelly as opposed to sugar and honestly I had no idea what to expect. Took a bite and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. The cake was moist but not soggy and was sweet but not too sweet. So good. Lastly I got a strawberry cupcake but unfortunately after the other 2 I could not take a bite of anything else. By the time I got to the cupcake it had hardened after sitting for so long and was not really edible. This was obviously not the fault of the baker so I just act as if I didn't get that one. I would really recommend GG's for dessert, it has some great choices and the people are great, and that for me is always a plus.

They were all so sweet and really went above and beyond to make sure it was a high-quality experience. I noticed that they openly advertise that they don't accept tips and have slightly higher prices in order to pay their workers a living wage, and the results were directly reflected in the customer service that I received. As for the food and drink (coffee), that was pretty good as well! While I do wish that they might have had bagels, the croissant that I substituted it for was warm, buttery, and tasty, and it was a nice change from my usual coffee shop meal, as I've only had a croissant a handful of times. The coffee was fine, and I loved how they offered free refills, which I've noticed that other local coffee shops usually don't. Finally, I loved the setting of the restaurant, which gave you the opportunity to either sit inside and enjoy the ambiance or on the outside patio and enjoy some peace and quiet. I also loved the artwork that they had on the walls, which the waitress informed me was painted by a local artist and which you could purchase if you wanted to. All-in-all, I loved smallSUGAR, will be back in the future, and would highly recommend stopping in!

I also loved their mixed combination of science and coffee-themed artwork, which I thought was really unique and clever, even for the standards of coffee shops, which usually have pretty impressive artwork. In particular, there was one poster of a chemistry equation, which somehow related to the process of the coffee industry - it reminded me of one of my favorite TV shows, Breaking Bad! My coffee, as simple as it was, was pretty good, and the two (2) baristas that I interacted with were really nice. In addition, as boring as this sounds, I also appreciated the ease of their parking lot, which made this an easy coffee shop to go to. All-in-all, this was a great coffee shop, that I'd recommend to anybody, and will definitely come back to in the future!

The first time I visited the truck, I was greeted by a friendly young man who clearly believed in what he was serving. I left with banana pudding, an Oreo cheesecake, and a turtle cheesecake -- and honestly, "sinful" is the right word. The cake itself is fluffy, rich, and packed with flavor, and the cheesecake? Truly some of the best I've ever had. The young man confidently told me it would be, and he wasn't exaggerating. My second visit to the food truck was just as pleasant. This time, a warm and welcoming young lady was running things. I arrived around 5 p.m., only to find that most items were already sold out -- a testament to how popular these desserts have become. Luckily, I managed to grab a blue velvet cheesecake, and it did not disappoint. Smooth, decadent, and perfectly balanced, it was worth the trip even with the limited selection. Wanting to experience more, I visited the brick-and-mortar location in Columbia off Two Notch Road this past Saturday. The desserts were just as delicious -- the quality and flavor remain consistent no matter the location. However, the customer service didn't match the charm of the food truck experience. While the cakes are still absolutely worth indulging in, the food truck brings something extra -- better hospitality, more personality, and a community feel that makes the experience sweeter. With prices being the same at both locations, I'll gladly return to the Orangeburg truck... just earlier next time, when the selection is still full.

We sat at the bar and had a slice of cake, a chocolate shake, and a cocktail. It was such a great experience. Everything tasted amazing, and the cocktail was adorable. It even had Curious George's face on it, which made it feel extra fun and thoughtful. The second visit was for my son's birthday. The desserts were still absolutely delicious. The churro cake was insane in the best way. They truly know how to do desserts. My only downside the second time was the table. They have a thick, waxy film on them that feels dirty and sticky underneath. It honestly feels like they need to be scraped down and re finished because touching them is uncomfortable. It takes away a bit from what is otherwise such a great experience. The staff has always been friendly, and the cakes and desserts are consistently amazing.
