Hey Sugar is a place that you can't help but love. It's as if you've walked inside of a fairy…read moretale. From the beautiful flowers to the cute swing. Everything is perfect! The air is filled with intoxicating aromas of chocolate, caramel, cotton candy, candy, sugary treats, and so much more. You can't help but to feel a rush of pure bliss and happiness! Everyone was friendly and unbelievably sweet just like the treats. The decorations are frilly, girly, and pink! So, it is definitely a fairly wonderland! From the rows of bulbs and lights. To the two big swings. They make it a point to make it feel fun and festive! The walls of flowers are my favorite part. It makes you feel as if you're in a garden. I also love the Hey Sugar sign that makes for the perfect picture! They also have a British telephone booth, a scooter bar cart, along with inspirational signs that add that fun good vibes! Every little detail is well thought over and it shows. They have a huge selection of unique flavor combinations that are creative and delicious! I will definitely be back every time I'm in town! Snickerdoodle cupcake This cupcake was crumbly, dense, and rich! I loved how it had a swirl of cinnamon goodness throughout the cupcake. Not only was it aesthetically pleasing. But, it added a demotion of flavor to the cupcake that made it stand appart from just a regular cupcake. The frosting was piled high! It was airy, sweet, and light! It tasted like cinnamon French toast but, in frosting format! Unbelievably good! They also put the cutest little snickerdoodle cookie on top. I loved it! It added that little bit of much needed texture and that cuteness that I'm a sucker for. I'm big about multiple textures and well thought out meals. This cupcake was just that! If you are craving something sweet and out of this world. Get this cupcake! Only if you're a huge cinnamon fan though. Strawberry lemonade sparkling I ordered a strawberry lemonade sparkling because it was a really hot day. It was definitely a wonderful suggestion! It was sweet, tangy, and zesty! And, it was unbelievably beautiful. I loved the elegant small dices of strawberries mixed in with the sparkling lemonade. The slice of lemon and the strawberry on the side tied the whole drink together. It was just beautiful! If you enjoy carbonated beverages. Then, you have to try this wonderful creation. I personally thought that it was a little on the sweet side. But, it was still really good! My friend enjoyed every last sip of this Summery surprise. And, I guarantee that every time we're in town that we'll get one.

I bit my finger while eating.....it was just so good!!! Don't walk, run to hear the next time you have a sweet tooth and need choices.

First, the entire store is a walk through chocolate history and creations, with a Chocolate Tree in the center. The shop was featured on Food Network! We ordered a chocolate martini, brownie and iced pistachio latte. The chocolate martini was amazing. The martini was rich and creamy. We shared the brownie and it was so rich, we could not finish it. We ordered the iced pistachio latte as the refreshing conclusion to the chocolate feast. A delectable treat in Geneva.

It was a pleasurable experience, perfect on a rainy Saturday spring day. The service was fantastic!! Starting with reservations, which was a "comedy of errors" to the moment we left. Esther's friendliness and attention to our comfort and taste elevated our experience. We started with the light, flakier tasty warm classic scones. Then we moved to the delicious, satisfying, variety of finger sandwiches - the traditional cucumber was perfectly refreshing to clean the palate before the sweet phase of our meal. In the mix there was a spinach-cheese tart which it would have been tastier served warm. I selected a violet dark tea which was lighter than I expected, perhaps it would have been stronger if would have let if brew a little longer. The assortments of pastries/sweets were delectable and mouth-watering - macaron, sponge cake, coconut chocolate drizzled macaroons, custard, and a truffle. All inviting, succulent, and scrumptious. I will be back!

It's no wonder that you experience long lines here while waiting for your treats, but in the process have the experience of being delighted by an array of aromas and colors. As a sweets store, this is about as good as it gets - with an amazing variety of different items at reasonable prices. The lively atmosphere helps to reinforce your decision to go here with everyone talking and checking out their favorites. The service isn't exactly the fastest, but not unreasonable for how busy they are. Overall worth a visit if you live anywhere near Geneva, to help satisfy your sweet tooth and find gifts for others to enjoy.

When I came in I was the only one in the restaurant so of course the service was pretty fast. I ordered the hot Cheeto K-dog with solely mozzarella as my filling. I thought it was pretty darn good! The cheese was super gooey and I thought the hot Cheetos just pulled everything together. I also ordered the strawberry matcha. It was pretty good, I did get a good taste of the strawberry. However, I think next time I'll order a smoothie- I think that would be more up my alley. I also bought 4 donuts to take home. I got the tiramisu, the ube, the biscoff cheesecake - which actually does taste like a cheese cake, and of course I got their most popular donut the strawberry milk cream. I was able to take a nibble out of each donut and I must say the donuts were delicious- the cream cheese filling is fantastic. My favorite flavors were the Biscoff and the strawberry. The shop is so cute and niche, there's a good amount of seating- I can definitely see myself coming here from time to time. The donuts definitely live up to their reputation!

Some ordered hot plates and the portions were grand and they were delicious. We went for a birthday and ordered two desserts.
