I took an assortment of their pies and one of their cakes to a family Thanksgiving (order early) and they were such a hit that one of my family members now goes there regularly. This is a small shop and they are very busy, so I would recommend calling ahead. So far, I love the key lime and my Mom loves the French silk. As in, buy a whole pie and freeze it so she can spend a month shaving off small pieces to enjoy. She was actually delighted and when I tried it, I had to agree that it was both very rich and melt-in-your mouth light at the same time. You won't be disappointed!

Sweet Caroline's Bakery is a phenomenally managed Palm Harbor staple! While preparing for my…read morefather's 75th birthday, I searched high and low for a bakery that had his absolute favorite cake flavor: German chocolate cake. Since his birthday happened to fall on Thanksgiving this year, I needed to locate a bakery that could conduct a sale within a day or two of the huge holiday. Sweet Caroline's staff picked up the phone, took my order for two cupcakes, processed the $9.00 payment, and ensured my cupcake order would be ready for pick up the day before Thanksgiving. A nearby family member picked up the order (and reported the bakery to be packed), and dutifully stored the German Chocolate cupcakes in the fridge until it was time for the birthday celebration. I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these cupcakes were absolutely divine! The chocolate was rich and the cake itself was so fresh. Pops loved the surprise. I am grateful that Sweet Caroline's Bakery was able to deliver on this super special occasion.

Not only are you greeted by some of the friendliest employees, you're hit with a sensory overload (in all the best ways possible). The decadent smell of chocolate fills your nose & your eyes are drawn to the display cases with literal pieces of edible art. You're going to need a minute- or five- when deciding what you want. Your eyes will tell you to get the best looking while the flavor descriptions will speak for themselves. First & foremost, these artisan chocolates are not only delicious, they're true pieces of art. The owner uses an airbrushing paint style to decorate the shells of the many amazing options. They're made by hand in-house & you can literally see how much effort is put into the product they serve. I love how many different options there are to choose from. Not only is there a great variety, they're always stocked up. Even after coming here for as long as I have, it always seems like there's something new to try. They have some standard flavors like dark chocolate raspberry, strawberry caramel, hazelnut, cappuccino & salted caramel but the true fun lies within looking at the unique flavors. PB & J, bananas foster, key lime pie, passion fruit & Mexican mango are just some to be named. They offer macrons & some of their signature flavors in bar form, as well. There's also a great selection of delicious, freshly-made gelato. Fan of afternoon tea? They host it every Saturday & Sunday with some delicious bites at a reasonable cost. Everything from the amazing customer service to the phenomenal tasting/looking chocolates makes this place a must hit. Any & every time I'm in Clearwater I make sure to get my fix. You shouldn't miss their chocolates if you care about yourself.
