Since I have a gluten intolerance, I was worried I wouldn't be able to have any of our wedding cake. Fortunately Cindy was flexible and was able to make a beautiful gluten-free cutting cake to go along with a tower of regular cupcakes for our guests. She was very helpful at our tasting, and even provided gluten free samples for me to try. For our day she was able to bring our cake design to life with a beautifully decorated and delicious (gluten free funfetti with cherry and lime filling) cutting cake and a fun tower of cupcakes (cherry chip, chocolate orange, cherry lime, and strawberry lemon) that everyone enjoyed and raved about. There were none left by the end of the night, so that tells you something! We wish she had a storefront so we could occasionally stop in to pick out a goodie or two, but if we have any custom orders in the future we will definitely work with Sweet Discoveries again!

They serve the fantastic Chocolate Shoppe ice cream and rotate flavors. In my opinion, this is the best scoopable ice cream out there so I'm so happy they carry it. I love their flavor selection, I believe it's about 31 flavors that rotate so there's something for everyone. What can be improved upon: Mark ice cream as dairy free, GF, soy, etc. to help with dietary restrictions and offer more sundae toppings. I'm hoping this comes in time, since they're still fairly new, they are off to a great start. I look forward to reviewing the Ice Box again when they are more established.

And, the fact that they sell Holcomb Hollow goodies was awesome. But just about everything else was lacking. I found the staff behind the counter to be gruff and unpleasant. Everything moved at a snails pace; I couldn't believe that a simple cold brew coffee (black) took 10 minutes. The shop is very artistic and has a lot to take in (in terms of decor, things for sale, etc.). It was overwhelming. There is a lot of seating area and separate rooms to congregate in, but even in poking my head in to look around, I received looks that felt territorial and unwelcoming. My coffee was fine, but really nothing to write home about. Not at all interested in trying this place again.

Fries were lightly coated but definitely of the frozen variety. Beef was on garlic bread which is exactly how I make it at home. I added cheese. Fried cod was crispy and nicely battered. Cole slaw didn't taste fresh made. No bread accompanied the fish fry. Service was very good. She checked on us frequently. Lots of to go orders and by the time we left, every seat was full.

So excited to have found my new favorite Sweet Shop!! My husband and I visited the night before Valentine's Day and had a FUN time! Not only was every single one of the staff just as sweet as their treats, but the patience they had with all of our silly questions and the time that Michele and Ashley took to meet us made it a great experience. We couldn't decide what to choose, so we picked an assortment of chocolates and could not skip the berries!! Everything was amazing! My husband has still not stopped obsessing over the fudge! We will be back!! And we cannot wait for icecream! ;) read more
