    Came here for RI Food Fights and I chose their mocha cappuccino cupcake. The coffee flavor was strong and absolute perfection. I haven't tasted many desserts like this - the flavor was amazing and the cupcake was moist. The frosting was also incredible and had a nice, silky texture. I loved the little sticks as well. The owner was super friendly and proud of her products. I've never heard of this place before and I know now I'll be back.

    We used awesome sweets for our wedding day desserts. We went in knowing we didn't want to do something traditionally and sue helped guide us to figure out what direction we wanted to go in. We decided to go with a personal cake (which she designed exactly the way we wanted it to look) and said yes to every request we made regarding mini desserts such as whoopie pies, cookies and cupcakes. It was awesome and people loved it!!

    Best carrot cake ever. Easy ordering process. Amazing quality for the price. Sue is lovely and very professional. I WILL be ordering again very soon. Pics don't lie! This girl knows her stuff and is VERY talented!

    My cake lady sold the business and moved down south. I MISS YOU MELISSA!! I walked into Awesome yesterday and noticed the change immediately- but sidenote I was unaware that the owners changed. The person working the counter explained everything to me but said don't worry- same recipes! I had reached out via email while they were on vacation for a cake for my son's birthday. I was given a quote and thought wow- that's high! I have bought at least 5 cakes from Melissa and only paid that much once when I was ordering for a large party not a dinner for 10. I just thought- well the times they are a changing! Now it makes sense. I changed my order to a dozen cupcakes. Bottom line: I was disappointed. The cupcakes were priced at over $3 a piece and they were small, inconsistent (look at the coloring of the actual cake and some were a little bigger and some a little smaller than others) and the icing was too sweet. I felt I did not spend my money wisely and even sadder, have lost my cake lady...

    Sue was fantastic to work with! She was so easy to work with, creating whatever look I wanted. I had a lot of last minute changes to the wedding cake and Sue was very flexible and accommodating - I so appreciate it! We received lots of comments about how delicious the cake was from the guests. I can't wait to go back in a year for an anniversary cake (red velvet with raspberry filling and vanilla buttercream icing).

    I had ordered a special cake topper on Etsy and our cake was exactly what I wanted to complement the topper!

    Awesome Sweets is awesome! The service is kind, courteous and professional. They created a cake for our backyard wedding celebration that was EXACTLY what I wanted and it was delicious! All wedding cakes can be expensive but their prices were reasonable compared to most others. I highly recommend Awesome Sweets!

    I rarely leave Yelp reviews, but I can't say enough about Awesome Sweets! I found this bakery searching online for flower cupcakes for my daughter's 18th birthday, then returned for a custom-designed cake for her graduation party. The detail is absolutely gorgeous and out guests RAVED about the flavors! Awesome Sweets will be my go-to for special occasions from now on!

    See all

    Curious to find anyone who has used this bakery for a wedding cake, and would you mind sharing your experience? Or any nontraditional sweet treat suggestions?

The first time we went, we got our own, but we quickly realized it is better to share one because it is more than enough for two people and leaves you fully satisfied. One per person would be way too much. They have a great variety of delicious ice cream flavors and toppings, and I 100 percent recommend it. Location: The location itself is nice, clean, and modern. It is more of a grab and go spot, and while there is a parking section, it tends to be full. You can usually find street parking easily though. It is a nice location that has always looked clean and modern. It is a casual spot. Service: The service has always been great, friendly, fast, and full of personality. I will definitely be coming back.

Vi herself was also wonderful to work with--professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what she does. She made the whole process easy and fun. If you're looking for something unique and memorable for an event, this is it. Highly recommend! We love Vi and Kow Kow ice cream!

It was hard to make a decision, but I went with a croissant stuffed with chocolate, fresh strawberries and whipped cream, while my friend went with the Chocolate Mousse Santiago tart. Let me just say, that both were rich, high quality, perfectly prepared, and amazing. I really don't think you could go wrong with anything you order here. I wasn't in the mood for coffee, but my friend enjoyed a nice cup of hot tea. At first I thought the prices were a little high, but after I considered the high quality of the ingredients anad the generous sizing, I think their prices are right on target. The cafe eating area is spacious and is perfect for conversations or quiet work. The entire cafe is super clean and the employees were friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back!

But I thought that one cookie was great! At first, I was hesitant as the trendy pink decor was reminiscent of Crumbl, whose cookies I do not enjoy. So I was expecting Feed the Cheeks to serve me some generic, overly sweet gimmicky monstrosity that would make me ill. But no! I ordered the chocolate strawberry cookie and I really liked it. It wasn't overly sweet, but balanced in its flavor. The strawberry icing wasn't thick and gross and overly sweet either. The chocolate was rich and because they warmed it up, perfectly ooey gooey. If I had been a little more cognizant of my surroundings instead of getting worked up by the iPad ordering system (can we please bring back human interaction?), I probably would've gotten a four pack of the mini cookies and sampled a few flavors. But when in Rome, order the giant cookies. The cookie still tasted good when I finished it at work the next day, too. The inside is what you'd expect, and very pink. And there's a few short stools at a very low counter you can sit at. I had some time to kill so I sat and ate my cookie there. Passersby looked down on us from the large windows facing Angell Street. Maybe they were jealous that they didn't treat themselves to a big cookie, or maybe they were cherishing their own willpower as they looked forward to the kale salad awaiting them at home. Either way, the cookie was a great choice!
