I really want to like this place because well...its the closest bakery to us and we used to live in Chicago and have 10 bakeries within a 3 block radius. I've only bought a few things here but everything has been up to par mostly. The cupcakes have been hit or miss and are pretty small but only when you compare it to the humongous cupcakes that have suddenly become the norm in the last few years. My big question is how this place even stays in business with the hours it keeps. Anytime I think to go its always closed?!?! They must make a good amount of cakes otherwise I don't see it staying there too much longer. Hopefully I'm wrong! read more

Not good. I'm sorry I wanted to like this place too but the baked items are just ok. I've eaten the cupcakes and though the icing is good the cake seems box made. I decided to go all out and order my sons birthday cake. What a mistake. The cake taste like they dumped a box of baking soda in it and it was not fresh made. It tasted as if it been in the refrigerator for weeks. Also, the atmosphere is not one that welcomes a diverse group of folks. The lady at the register was screaming her views about "non Americans". Don't waste your money or your time. That was $53 down the drain. I'll continue to drive way across town for my cakes. read more

Mint Hill's finest lunch place and bakery! The lunch here is the best in town and has such wonderful flavors in everything because its all made from scratch daily. The staff here has a natural niche for cooking food and knows how to prepare and serve a great soup, salad, sandwich or even quiche. The food here always comes in very generous portions and appropriate sides (with appropriate entree). The bakery always has wonderful sweets and treats. The talent here started with just baking anything from cookies and muffins to preparing cakes for all occasions and is truly a site to see some of the work they have done. The service here is always such a pleasure. Everyone greets you and is happy to help you and make you feel like family. Daphne's Bakery has so much to offer for everyone and they are my first choice on baked goods and lunch any day of the week! I can honestly say I've tried everything on the menu (lunch- and most bakery items) and I have been more than pleased! This is a must try for everyone! read more

Daphne's Bakery - Maple pecan muffin ! Great for any time of day! - Bakeries Near Me - Mint Hill, North Carolina

See all

These are by far the best cupcakes I have ever tasted. I called up today because I was in the area. To my joy, they had the cherry cupcakes (not their best sellers, but my fave). I brought a half dozen to my italian friend, who doesnt like cake. She loved them! Reminded her of the cherry cookies her mother makes. "Best cupcakes" she's ever had. Thank you Daphne's! The service is amazing! Thank you, Keisha and Daphne!!! We literally got out and drove to her mother's house to give her 2 of the cupcakes. Yes, they are that good. read more

Favorite bakery in the Charlotte area! Not only are all of their sweets delicious, but they also serve lunch which is equally as delicious. Chicken salad made from scratch, chicken dumplings, quiche, salad, many options that are quick and the perfect serving for a lunch option. I would recommend Daphne's Bakery to anyone. Stop in for a quick sweet fix, to order a cake for your next event, or simply stop by for lunch you will not be disappointed! I regularly stop in on the way home to pick up a batch of cookies. read more

My boyfriends birthday was last week, he owns a cigar shop. I called & ask for a small cake with some cigars on top. I gave very little direction, just the name of the shop & his first name. Daphne's went above & beyond!! They took it upon themselves & looked up his company logo & put it on the cigars on top of the cake. I was very impressed!! Not only did the cake look amazing, but it tasted equally as good!! He loved it! I would definitely recommend usinh read more

I ordered a special cake for my grandson's first birthday. When I arrived to pick it up, to my disappointment there was no smash cake with the birthday cake(probably my mistake when ordering). However, they worked to create one for me on the spot, without complaint. The cake was amazing and my grandson LOVED his smash cake! Everyone commented on how good the cake was, even my husband, who hates icing, commented several times on how great it was! That's saying a lot! I would most definitely recommend Daphne's Bakery!! read more

I have all of my cakes done here. I usually have an idea of what I'm going for and how I want my cakes to look and kind of leave it to them. They always turn out perfect. People are always asking me where I get my cakes done. Their cake balls and cookies are good too. I always pick up a few when I pick up my cakes. Great customer service as well ! I recommend them to anyone. read more

Thought I would try this place again and its still the same - Look pretty on the outside but dry on the inside. Not the best but not the worse. But the real problem is the older lady that runs the register (she appears to be the "mother" of the store). She's just not that friendly something about her is very off-putting can't put my finger on it??? But one things for sure I will definitely not be putting my finger on another one of there dry overpriced cupcakes. read more

Oh my heavens......these cupcakes were absolutely delicious!!!! The icing was incredible like a combination of French vanilla ice cream and tasty butter cookies. 10 stars. read more

It's so easy to drop a pretty penny in here and not feel bad about it. I've never had anything I didn't love. Daphne puts her heart into each pastry, cupcake or whatever it is she is making that day. I love coming here when I am in Mint Hill. Just go there. No really, just do it. read more

Love their cupcakes!! Favorite is wedding cake cupcake and I'm a chocoholic. Want to swim it their butter cream frosting. The best in town! read more

Daphne's chocolate chip cookies are the best I've had! Love the atmosphere here and the family feel. They also serve a great lunch, try the chicken salad or pimento cheese, both are top notch. read more

Delicious and creative cupcake flavors. Wonderful cookies and pies. The coconut cream pie is amazing! The custom fondant cakes are works of art. Yes, the cupcakes are a little expensive. This is a custom bakery, not a grocery store. read more

Been here about 4 times over last 2 weeks. Cupcakes are on point ! Seems like a very nice hidden gem outside of Charlotte. One of the best bakeries in the Charlotte area I think. Not too big of a place but it will satisfy your sweet tooth. read more

Love this bakery! They made a four leaf clover 30th birthday cake for me that was delicious and beautiful! Cupcakes, muffins, brownies...everything that I have tasted has been excellent! read more

I can honestly say Daphne's cupcakes are the best I've ever had! I've also had some of their day old goods and they taste incredibly fresh as well. read more

I stopped into their old location when I was new in town. I'm not really a bakery person other than pecan pies. They have these great little pecan bars there. Trust me, try them. read more

The worst pastries I've ever had. Got a dozen cupcakes for a party and the actual cake part tasted like fish oil. They cookies I got spoiled in less than two hours and turned from double chocolate chip to green. I went back for a refund and they actually charged me again instead of refunding me. I had to go back and have the owner double refund me. read more

I LOVE this southern style bakery. It smells the way I imagine Heaven will smell when I get there! I love the atmosphere the girls (and few guys) that work there are awesome. My absolute favorite cupcake is the "Ugly Betty" I don't really care for chocolate, but this cupcake is divine honey! I also love the pecan bars, the key lime cupcake, coconut cream pie, toffee almond cookies, lemon bars...oh...the LEMONADE?...WOW!! Love this place and the owners! read more

Daphne's made the MOST fabulous cakes and cupcakes for my son & daughter's birthday party! The process for ordering was extremely easy & convenient, especially considering that I had a rather complicated & specific order of 2 separate cakes and several types of cupcakes -- I met briefly with manager Carmen while at the bakery having lunch with my toddler, and then was able to email her later with more details of what I needed and links to photos of the types of designs I was looking for. She was so easy to work with, and I was positively AMAZED when I picked up my cakes & cupcakes the day of the party -- they were simply gorgeous and perfect -- beyond all expectations design-wise, and of course, they tasted delicious, too! Great job, Daphne's -- thank you for adding the perfect centerpiece to my childrens' birthday party!

Daphne's Bakery is simply perfection, from the baked goods, creativity, attention to detail and customer service, this establishment is wonderful. This bakery is a small family owned bakery that warms you up the second you step inside and offers an amazing variety of baked goods. Daphne is amazing and was such a pleasure to work with. She has such a creative vision and really invests in making your cake and day as special as possible. She helped brainstorm and come up with the most beautiful cake, cake board and arrangement of florals and decorations. She was in constant communication and offered her advice and suggestions and was always gracious and supportive of our questions and concerns. The cake was so delicious. Each layer was tastier than the next. The toughest problem was finding which flavor was our favorite. The cake looked like it appeared straight out of a wedding magazine. The attention to details with the icing and decoration far exceeded our expectations. Our guests could not get enough and we have plenty of leftovers which was a must and of course Daphne's Bakery was prepared with cake boxes. We are thrilled with our experience with Daphne's Bakery and cannot recommend them highly enough. We suggest everyone stop by for a Wedding Cake cupcake which will brighten your day. read more

I use to stop often to pick up the different items at Daphe's for work and family. As of today September 2, 2017, I will no longer be patronizing. The customer service experience wasn't pleasant, and poor customer service is irreversible. I have a low tolerance for poor service provided to me where I spend my money. read more

We've used this bakery several times for special occasion cakes. Our guest are always pleased by the design and taste of the cake. We love how they've accommodated our decorating request. We will continue to use them for our cake needs. read more

I just love Daphne's they have the best cupcakes in town! They just recently moved to a great location still in Mint Hill, NC but they are now on Hwy 51 between Lawyers Road and Blair Road they have gotten a bigger space and they deserve it :) I work next door to their old location and always would go run in there to take home some cupcakes to my husband and daughter :) Congrats Daphne on the upgrade I will be stopping in soon!!! read more

I have not gotten the chance to eat their lunch yet but I plan on it! Their cupcakes are scrumptous and I have tried almost every one of them. It's so nice to have a local bakery that the owner is from this area also. It's always crowded due to the tasty treats but they don't keep you waiting long. I would highly recommend it to all the locals of Mint Hill! read more
