Highly Recommend this bakery..!! The cake was delicious and All the guests loved it. The leaves and decor on it looked perfect. Good job team Sweet Something’s ❤️ I ordered the animals and some extra leaves for the top of the cake. It looked so good and matched the entire set up of the theme ‘Wild one’ Thanks for making my son’s first birthday cake.

Michelle Provencher

Highly recommend this bakery! I ordered a small lemon Chantilly cake and two dozen cupcakes (12 vanilla and 12 chocolate) for my baby shower. Huge hit! Lots of compliments, especially on the lemon cake. We decorated the cake with fresh flowers ourselves and those were from Spring Thyme herb farm. Also, Sweet Somethings staff was great. Will be back for next special occasion

Heather LaMon

I reached out to sweet something’s for my son’s first birthday cake and smash cake. I sent example pictures and had a great conversation with Lee about what my vision was. They did such a great job and really captured what I wanted, and the cakes were delicious!

Sweet something’s cake and cupcakes were a total hit at our shower !!! Ppl loved it and couldn’t get enough. Not to mention how beautifully decorated it was! Highly recommend

Christine Mullins

I ordered the Death by Chocolate cake and had it delivered to my daughter for her birthday at the University of Delaware. It was beautiful and by all accounts delicious 😋! The service was impeccable. Exactly as promised. They called her so she could pick it up from her dorm. Such a treat! …

Denise M.

What a wonderful bakery!! Very polite, very helpful, everything was just as planned and we had two flavors...I'm telling you you WILL NOT be disappointed!!! Countless compliments on the cakes!! Will definitely order here again!! Thank you Lee and crew!!!

Came in saturday for birthday desserts which were really disappointing. 5 Cupcakes were dry and tasted old, all of them we bought except the 1 choc rasberry cupcake which was good. (6 total) mini cheesecakes were good, peanut butter bomb was good, molten dessert was hard as a rock, not good, the chocolate chip cookie with white choc icing was borderline stale tasting. Not sure why the desserts were so underwhelming but unfortunately we didnt enjoy more than half of them. They do a great job at presentation, making them all look mouth watering. A huge let down when you take a bite of stale, dry desserts. Looks are deceiving.

I normally never leave a review but I brought a dozen assorted cupcakes for my mother’s birthday dinner and they were to die for! Oh my gosh they were literally so perfect, each and every flavor my family raved about! My mother was very much satisfied and so was I, definitely recommend 10000/10! Customer service was very good, the man who greeted/served me was very kind and funny! My new favorite dessert spot for family events… and for my own personal cravings lol! (If you’re from jersey… yes the drive is worth it!)

I purchased a ready made Oreo inspired chocolate cake as a last minute gift. Firstly you're paying for an excellently made cake. They're was a lott of icing and not a lot of cake. I enjoy cake, for the, well, cake aspect. Icing is just a topping. The icing was rich, very sweet and creamy. The cake, from what I could have, was so moist and rich; just wish there was more of it. I look forward to trying the other treats they have ready made :) support local businesses!!

My wife and I used Sweet Somethings for our wedding cake in October 2018. Overall, we had a positive experience. Our guests loved the marble cake as well as the seasonal cake flavor (pumpkin walnut)! They did a great job following our requests for the cake decoration as well. At times, we found Sweet Something was a little difficult to get ahold of. Additionally, there was some initial confusion about whether or not they were able to do a gluten-free wedding cake. The lava cake option, which is their one gluten-free option, is very tasty but not what we were looking for. Overall, we recommend Sweet Somethings!

I ordered the white chocolate raspberry cake for my son's 3rd birthday and everyone loved it! The cake came out beautifully and exceeded my expectations.

Jennifer S

We went out of our way tonight while driving home to NJ to find a cupcake shop that was open late. We were not disappointed! The service was fast and friendly and the cupcakes are some of the best we have ever had. Clearly made of high quality ingredients and each one we tasted was more delicious than the last! Unfortunately, we now have to drive over an hour when we want cupcakes from now on.

I usually stop by 3 times a year for birthday cake. Coming from the person that typically doesnt like cake this place is amazing! I was there Saturday for a small birthday cake for my 1 yr old. I decided to get 4 mini pastries instead. The best treat ever. The Chocolate Bombe, Chocolate Chip Tart, Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake and the Pecan pie were all very satisfying.

Matthew Andrews

This bakery is incredible! My wife and I choose them to do our wedding cake for our wedding that was originally scheduled for 3/28/2020 but had to be postponed until 12/11/2021. They made it extremely easy to push everything back and the cake we received was amazing. I would highly suggest them as they are very professional and easy to work with.

I walked into this bakery yesterday afternoon. This was my first visit. The gentleman who appears to be the Manager/Owner, greeted me as I walked in. An adorable little girl held the door for me when I walked in and left after my purchase. I was celebrating my boyfriend birthday. I purchased 4 cupcakes; strawberry shortcake, lemon, oreo cream and vanilla. We tried the strawberry shortcake together. Omg, it was amazing!!! It taste exactly like a strawberry shortcake, it's very moist, full of good flavor... absolutely a perfectly made cupcake. Delicious cupcakes and good customer service. We agreed we will be back to try more.

Nicole Slesinger

I think I found my new go to bakery! They were very nice and understanding. When I accidentally gave them the wrong pick up date, they were able to accommodate me to get me my cake sooner. Chocolate hazelnut cake was so tasty and their prices are reasonable. I will return!

Nathalie L.

Highly recommend this bakery! My birthday cake looked better than the photo we gave them for inspiration and it tasted sooo good, absolutely delicious and not too sweet. Will definitely recommend and order from again!

Tarradene F

This was my first time ordering anything from here. I ordered a 2 tier, LOL inspired birthday cake, chocolate and vanilla. Did not disappoint on any levels. Definitely keep that same energy and you have a lifetime customer. Everyone said it was the best cake they have ever had. Usually frosting are sometimes too sweet, but this was perfect. Absolutely no complaints. Please try to get adequate boxes for cakes with 2 tiers and up, hated keeping it in the fridge uncovered. Will be back for cakes in may, June & July. Thank you!!!!

Debbie Holman Brown

I traveled from Florida just to have Sweet Somethings. It was worth the trip! This place is amazing and the staff are friendly and attentive. The quality and beauty of the desserts are amazing. I'll surely be back when I come back to town. I highly recommend! Thank you to Casey for such great personalized service!

Matt Berry

First experience here after it being highly recommended . Ordered a cake for our daughters 3rd birthday . The cake itself was larger than expected but looked great . Only thing was the happy birthday writing wasn't added . I picked up 6 cupcakes while i was there as well . I ate one of the cupcakes myself , they were very soft and well flavored . I didn't eat the cake but the other half and kids said it was good. I would recommend this place .

Christine Bolesta

When every person at your party says it’s the best cake they’ve ever had, you know it’s amazing! I will always order from this bakery. The cupcakes are little pieces of art. The butter cream cake with raspberry filling is just the right blend of everything! Beautiful, elegant and delicious!!!!

Jessica Conlan

Best dessert place in Wilmington! 💝💝💝 I always get an assortment of the mini desserts for family functions, and everyone goes crazy for them. My mother in law was a professional cake maker, and she thinks they're all amazing but especially the key lime! I've also custom ordered large cakes, I 💟 the white chocolate raspberry mousse cake!🎂 🍰🧁

Emily Durán

We ordered several kinds of desserts from Sweet Somethings so we could have a dessert bar at our wedding. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING was amazing. I thought I ordered way too much, but people loved it so much that there was only a few slices left! Everything looked good and the service was awesome - every time I walk in there is a smiling face to greet me. I will recommend this shop to EVERYONE. In fact, I'm going back tomorrow to get my mom a treat for mother's day! Enjoy!

Kerry Reinbold

We purchased a Star Wars “inspired” cake for my son’s birthday. The cake was not only beautiful but very delicious. I’m not big on sweets but I tried the cake and found it so good I went in for seconds...... I’ve noticed that a lot of cake makers sacrifice taste for that social media perfect looking cake, we got both!!! Very pleased

Nick Xiao

Cake tasted great and was delicious, but did not match the description on the website's menu. Ordered a chocolate raspberry cake and there was no raspberry jam, instead there was a raspberry cream. The actual cake didn't taste like it was soaked in raspberry syrup either. Maybe I should have confirmed when I ordered but the menu descriptions should be updated at the least.

Scott Roberts

Incredible!!!!!! Truly, one of the last traditional bakeries in America. Every, cake, pie, tort, and cupcake...are perfect. The flavors are amazing, the staff is super friendly and the owner took and filled my order. The shop is clean and the staff are very aware of the new Covid constraints. And...the 13th cupcake is free!

Rubin Abraham

Awesome cake!! Loved it. Got the chocolate mousse cake for a birthday. Highly recommend it.

Pauline Mwangi

So l just got a cake for my husband's 50th birthday party a week ago. The cake was excellent, all the guests were talking about the cake. I took a piece to my coworker's who are still talking about how good the cake was. I did a vanilla with lemon filling and the top tier was chocolate and mousse filling. It was ready when we went to pick it up. I wish l can post the picture here.Thank you again.

Niasha Draine

This place did absolutely amazing on the cupcakes and cake that I ordered for my daughter’s first birthday party! The picture I showed them was exactly what they did for me. I want to give a special shout out to Victoria who decorated the cake! She is so sweet! Even walked the cake to the car for me. I will definitely be returning for my other two kids birthday parties this year! They weren’t pricey at all either!

Evelyn Smith

I live in maryland but I’m from Wilmington, de. I needed to get cake for my granddaughter. I didn’t want a ordinary cake with yellow or red flowers on it. I went online and and found the website and called, I only had about 45 minutes left to purchase. When I arrived, I saw the cake that really looked very good. So I made my purchase and it was the best cake I ever had. My granddaughter was so surprised that she was telling everyone to come see her cake. It was a big hit. Now I’m going to order my birthday cake. Thank you for baking such a delicious cake. This was my first purchase but not my last. My family still lives there so I’ll be bringing the cake.

Daniel Lieberman

I have been coming to this bakery for years and it's always AMAZING. Such a creative and uh unique product offering. I loved their baked goods so much that I carried them in my retail store until I closed. The owner, Lee is always pleasant and great to deal with professionally. Now I drive 30 minutes just to go to this shop. Love it!

Danny Oi

Delicious cake! The woman who decorated our cake (I think her name was Joanna) did an amazing job. Like, she should be on one of those shows on the food network. She's really that good! They're a little more pricey than other options. But in this case, you get what you pay for!

Kara Montgomery

I normally get banana cream pie for my partner somewhere else and due to the pandemic it was closed this year. I was so afraid his birthday would not be special this year due to it. I found this bakery shop and bought Banana Cream Pie from them hoping it would be an okay substitute. It was not just okay, it was amazing. Today we took it out of the box and it was gorgeous. We almost didnt want to eat it was so pretty. It taste amazing too! Thank you for punching COVID-19 in the face and making an amazing birthday for my man!

Diane Slaninko

We found this treasure on North Union Street in Wilmington after we made a wrong turn. How lucky for us. Over the past few months, we've gotten their White Chocolate Banana Cream Pie, Raspberry White Chocolate Mousse Cake and the Carrot Cake - all are outstanding. Overall, we've experienced excellent staff and wonderfully exquisite treats at Sweet Somethings. We highly recommend their desserts for any occasion. BTW - Re reviews from several years ago - the offending partner is no longer affiliated with Sweet Somethings. I found this out talking to a customer outside Sweet Somethings and it's been confirmed online :)

Rachel Savage

I placed a small order for key lime cupcakes this past week for a lunch celebrating my friend’s Master’s degree. Everybody, myself included, raved about how delicious they were. I can honestly say that it was the best cupcake that I’ve ever had. I had called around to a number of other bakeries in the area and none of them were willing to do that specific flavor unless it was a particular day, none of which would have worked for the scheduled lunch. Additionally, out of all the bakeries that I had called, the gentleman that I spoke with was by far the most friendly and helpful. When I came in to pick the cupcakes up, not only did Sweet Somethings smell like heaven, but the store was really clean, and the gentleman that cashed me out, who I assume was the same I’d spoken with a few days earlier, was just as friendly. I just wanted to thank you for wonderful customer service and stellar cupcakes! This will be my go-to from now on!

I normally don't give "good" reviews that much, but today before putting head to pillow I have to give a shout out to "Sweet Somethings Desserts!!" They literally saved my baby shower for my daughter. They customized one of their cakes (Raspberry White Chocolate Mousse, cupcakes (Yellow w/white frosting), and sugar cookies so the color theme could come to fruition. On top of that, their cakes (also Chocolate Silk Torte, cupcakes, and sugar cookies were SO DE-LISH, EVERYONE wanted to know where I bought it from. Thank you Sweet Somethings Desserts for magnificent service and products!! You are definitely #1 in my book!! See you soon!!

Just stopped in for the first time to grab a couple of cupcakes, and was not disappointed. The cake itself was moist and delicious, with just the right amount of icing. The staff is also very friendly. Will definitely come again.

Nicole Gabor

I am in love with this place. After 4 years in Wilmington, we've looked high and low for a good bakery and finally found it! This place is not only much more affordable compared to other bakeries in the area, but the cakes and cupcakes are amazing. For my son's 1st bday, I asked for a "little prince" themed crown cake and they did an amazing job - a work of art, really. The cake was so pretty I didn't even care if it tasted good. But let me tell you, it tasted BETTER than it looked. Got the marble buttercream cake that has layers of what tastes like fudge, chocolate and vanilla mousse. It was amazing and my guests couldn't stop commenting on how good it was. I was thrilled and we will definitely be going back to this place. Best-kept secret!

goatboy

Amazing cake for my wife's birthday, commissioned by her brother. Perfect end to a great dinner at Krazy Kats. When they brought the cake out we were stunned! They did a terrific poker themed cake that we spent several minutes taking pictures of before they took it away to cut it. When it seemed to be taking awhile to get it back, we joked that they probably put it up on ebay and got a hefty sum for it. When we did get it back, the cake was delicious! Presentation and substance sometimes don't match up but this was one perfect cake in every way!

Sharon Sharpe

This was my first time order from this cake shop. My coworkers loved the cake! It was a lemon coconut cake. Very moist and very delicious. I will definitely order from them again.. Real soon. 😁 …

joseph mchenry

this bakery is the bomb made both my granddaughters every birthday 🎂 …

Anna M

This is probably the best bakery in Wilmington. I've tried an embarrassing number of pastries here, but I can't recommend any particular one because they all blend together into a single memory of blissful chocolatey sugary joy. Note that this is more a take-out place than a sit-in place.

Maggie B

Received these cupcakes as a gift and they did not disappoint!

Effat “Virtuous Wraps” Harris

Last minute, in need of a cake for our Daughters 13th Birthday & Sweet Something fulfilled our need! That Strawberry Pound Cake with White Chocolate Mousse filling was A Hit! We will definitely be returning. Thank You

Lauren A

I stopped by Sweet Somethings after a friend told me about a cake she bought for her son's birthday party, and how amazing it was. There was a small office party we were having at work recently, so I decided to pick up some nice treats for everyone. I ended up with a variety of delicious cupcakes along with my now favorite dessert, the hawaiian sea salted caramel bombe. Everyone in the office loved everything! - including myself. I highly recommend sweet somethings for any type of celebration. I will definitely be back.

Kelly Betz

Had a 30th birthday party at Bardea and one of the girls bought a chocolate cake to share with everyone at the table. It was so delicious! The chocolate cake layers were dense and perfectly moist and the icing was great too. The words piped ontop were nicely written.

Aisha Popal

Highly recommend!!! Cake was amazing everyone loved it. Lee is great

Diana Long

Thank you Sweet Somethings!!! We had the absolute BEST Wedding Cake in the World!!! Our guests all raved about how fresh, scrumptious and beautiful it was. Thank you so much... You will forever have our business. xx

John Gardley

I purchased a lemon coconut cake for a small birthday party it was the star of the event. I'm a believer of the theory that you pay for what you get and this bakery does not disappoint. All of my future needs will definitely be served by this establishment.

Randy Barksdale

Great customer service and amazing cakes. This is our second time ordering from Sweet something’s. Definitely our permanent bakery! Thanks for making all of our events special with your delicious pastries!

I have had so many of their cakes over the past few years as this is the ONLY place my firm gets cakes from...because they are soooooo tasty!! I have had the carrot, german chocolate, chocolate silk, chocolate caramel ganache, lemon with raspberry sauce, chocolate oreo, and a chocolate peanut butter cake. I couldn't pick a favorite if I tried!!!! Fabulous...always!

Robert King

I recently attended a good friend's daughters' 1 year birthday party and they had ordered cupcakes from Sweet Somethings...Now, I consider myself a bit of a cupcake expert but these were beyond the pale! Heavenly. I highly recommend!

Kendra Giardiniere

Their cupcakes are divine!! They have fun, seasonal flavors, they always look gorgeous, and the cake is absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Sarai Rivera

Good palce a little difficult to identify as the color are dark green, employees are not friendly and they should have more variety of bake goods to go, maybe a couple of tables or chairs need it and the packaging is a little off , platic containers whit no liner. But they where flavor was good a above average bakery.

Sharath Kumar

Just amazing cakes. Love every one of their creations. For someone with a sweet tooth I would definitely suggest to try their chocolate mousse. Even the staff is super sweet. Love this place. ♥️

Jon D

Had the opportunity to meet the owner and sample some dessert from here. The owner was downright jovial, and the cake was amazing! There is an obvious passion on the part of the owner to make something amazing with each treat, an endeavor which he constantly achieves.

Angela Howard

I purchased a cake for a spur of the moment celebration. The guy who helped me was very courteous and helpful. The cake was delicious!!!

Jin Kim

I recommend getting red velvet tart or pistachio tart. I always end up buying $20-30 worth of dessert here every weekend. It helps me get through my day during the week :)

Miss Patriot

Wow, one of my new favorites treats to myself. Their chocolate molten cake is to die for. Its not sickening sweet and is totally addictive. A must try!

Carrie Hunt

For a special event, I got a cake. The cake was excellent, it was discussed by all the guests. It was a cake of chocolate and was ready to pick it up when I went. Thank You for that luscious item. I'll visit for sure.

Not many nice places in Wilmington, DE ...but this is one of them. Why bother with the disgusting, fake bake goods at Shop rite, when you can have delicious baked goods made with “real” ingredients? Love & love this place!

Jennie Dahl

Great bakery and great staff. I had the cannoli cupcake and i loved it!

Josida Diaz

I just went here for the first time and I love it. A man who seemed like the owner greeted me and told me what they had based on what I like. I didn't feel pressured to get anything and what I got tasted amazing. I will definitely come here whenever I have a sweet tooth.

Yolanda Hall

I have ordered twice from sweet somethings.their cakes are delicious and they are friendly every time I place a order

I was worried when I read few reviews around racism, but my experience with Mr Lee cleared them right away. He's a good guy. I would definitely recommend this place for your sweet craving :)

Jennifer Brandon

I stop by here often and purchase one serving size cheesecakes, sometimes two. I enjoy every bite of my yummy cheesecakes. :)

Joseph Jacome

I have to say that this place makes the best chocolate cake. EVER. they are always nice in there and passionate about what they are doing. But don't take my word for it. Grab a cupcake and see for yourself.
