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 am in love with this place. After 4 years in Wilmington, weve 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 sons 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 didnt 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 couldnt stop commenting on how good it was. I was thrilled and we will definitely be going back to this place. Best-kept secret!

I found this place while searching on Google to pick up something small for my landlords birthday. This place is smaller shop with open baking/work-space with open industrial look. I personally like that industrial look. When I went there they did not have more options out but they had enough to start with and more in the back as I was told. Gentleman who helped me was very helpful and nice. He explained me all different flavors and options patiently. I really like this place and will be open to go back. I even had a discussion with guy and told them to try "CupCake War" challenge on Food Netwrok..lol Good place to try!

I walked into this bakery yesterday afternoon. This was my first visit. The gentleman who appears to be the Manger or 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, its 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.

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, weve gotten their White Chocolate Banana Cream Pie, Raspberry White Chocolate Mousse Cake and the Carrot Cake - all are outstanding. Overall, weve 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 its been confirmed online :)

I stopped by Sweet Somethings after a friend told me about a cake she bought for her sons 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.

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, Im going back tomorrow to get my mom a treat for mothers day! Enjoy!

Called shop to order a cake for my fathers 84th birthday...they didnt answer phone during business hours, left a message but never called me back. Called them back next day, spoke to owner, she refused to make a cake without 48 hours notice, did not apologize for not calling me back, and practically hung up on me. I have never encountered someone so rude...especially someone whose product is so average. I would not do business with this bakery.

I Have previously purchased several cakes from this bakery. They all have been good. I tried to call all day, left 2 voicemails never heard back. I finally got thru today and was told they could not make a basic cake in 2 days. Even after expressing my discontent , I was told I could pick something out of the case if. There might be something available that I would like. Horrible service !!!! Dont think I will go back.

Stood at the counter behind one family. Then another Caucasian woman walked in. When our turn came up the moron at the counter asked the white lady if we were next. Did she need confirmation to serve us. The woman in line behind us actually got served before we did. Racists jerks operate this establishment. Ive had better cupcakes from Philadelphia and surrounding. Try Cupcakeology. Youll be welcome there.

Was pleasantly surprised to find that the previous owner was bought out and is no longer employed there. THe new staff is very friendly, helpful and accommodating, even with short notice. As to their quality, obviously the last person has not tasted their products. Much better than any competitor, even Liz Marden and Desserts by dana.

After being treated poorly by the owner on a few occassions, Ive chosen to never step foot in the place again. I thought maybe she was having a bad day. Well, she had one too many bad days and has lost me as a customer. After speaking with co-workers, Im not the only one!

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 didnt feel pressured to get anything and what I got tasted amazing. I will definitely come here whenever I have a sweet tooth.

I purchased a lemon coconut cake for a small birthday party it was the star of the event. Im 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.

I recently attended a good friends 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!
