    Six chocolate cupcakes, two each: red velvet, better than a hostess cupcake & salty caramel
    Sibyl C.

    As you walk in the smells are heavenly. You are greeted with a very friendly hello! The display case has every kind of cupcake you could hope for. I know from experience the cupcakes are amazing- and sure to please. I am blessed with great neighbors & when they have birthdays I like to get them something as special as them & from a local business.

    L: nice & even ribs R: remake of the top tier. Messy and uneven ribs

    We truly enjoyed our cake tasting for our wedding. Desta sketched how our cake would look and we loved it. Then covid happened and the bakery was helpful in working with us as we figured out a new wedding date. We ordered our cake for our microwedding and larger wedding. We also had mini desserts : mini Dutch apple pies and mini raspberry cheesecakes. I loved how our cake turned out. As part of our wedding package, we would get the top tier remade to enjoy for our 1 year anniversary. The ribbed look was really messy and uneven compared to the wedding day cake. See picture. I realized it once I was looking at wedding day photos. We had a bit of a drive from Galt so I do wish they would've had an appropriate sized box for the top tier. So I had to carry it on my lap mostly opened all the way home.

    Couple's wedding cake. We also ordered three other cakes to feed guests.

    Went with my daughter for her wedding cake tasting. Arrive hungry! This was the most unique tasting I've ever been to. We were able to try all the cake flavors, fillings, fresh fruits, and frostings in order to create her own combination. She chose champagne cake with a dark chocolate and strawberry filling and cream cheese frosting. Delicious!!! We liked it so much that I ordered it again for her 23rd birthday! The service was wonderful and all staff we interacted with was very helpful. The shop is very cute and they stock lots of cupcakes daily that can be purchased ala carte.

    They always do an amazing job and cakes taste so good! They've done a baptism cake for my daughter wich was a plain naked cake and exactly what I wanted. And for my sons birthday they did a jack o lantern cake and it was so awesome! I loved it and he LOVED it!

    A few weeks ago, Something Sweet did the desserts and a wedding cake for our son's reception (they were married out of state a few weeks before). The owner was fabulous to work with. Every time I came into the shop to taste something or ask a question, she was very helpful. She gave great advice about how many items we needed. Everything tasted great, looked beautiful, was ready on time, etc. Highly recommend!

    Me and my wife stopped for a evening dessert. My wife order a lemon bar and Oreo truffle. I ordered a hostess cupcake and pumpkin cream cheese cupcake. I also ordered a Oreo truffle after the customer service lady had talk me into getting one. The Oreo truffle was rich and flavorful. The white chocolate with the soft inside just made my tastebuds go into over drive. My wife had the same feeling as I did. She loved her lemon bar. She said it was bursting with flavor and it was the best lemon bar she has ever had. The hostess cupcake taste better than the real one. The frosting was fresh and gooey. The cake was soft and the cream inside was light. The pumpkin cheesecake cupcake was a flavor experience. The pumpkin and the cream cheese flavor was just the perfect combination of flavors. The cupcake was light but pack with great flavor. The customer service was great and ambiance was customer service friendly. This is a great place for desserts and they make made to order cakes.

    This was our inspiration photo. Lightly iced and simple.

    Update to previous review. The owner reached out to me both on my post and privately. She was very polite and apologetic. I went into the bakery on 3/20 and instead of taking advantage of a situation, I chose to purchase a cannoli and 6 cupcakes to take home to my family. We were all very pleased with the flavors and quality of ingredients. The staff while in the bakery were very busy but still very courteous and helpful! My wedding cake experience definitely will not prevent me from patronizing this bakery for further desires.

    Same awesome bakery as always, and everything in my previous review still stands. Just updating with more recent work they did for us!

    Something Sweet did a fantastic job on my son's birthday cake. I wanted a cake that was on the simple side but still captured the theme of the party and that's exactly what we got. Most importantly, the cake tasted delicious and all the guests went back for seconds. We also ordered cupcakes that were equally cute and delicious. The ordering process couldn't have been easier and the gal that helped me design the cake was super kind and helpful. We will be back next year!

    Went back this year and because of the mistake the owner Desta was nice enough to give me a good discount. Loved the cake and yes correct name this time!

    Wedding cake!

    Ok.. where do I even start? Desta and her team made my wedding cake dreams come true! My cake was definitely one of my favorite things about my wedding. I told Desta what I wanted and she sketched out a design and made it happen! It was even more beautiful than I imagined. My guests were asking if my cake was fake because it looked so perfect! The details were incredible. I asked for a Pearl white finish and a glitter tier. No problem! They made it happen! And it was delicious! I got the pink champagne flavor. There was not a slice left over after the wedding. My guests were calling and texting saying how good the cake was. I worked very closely with Ashley who works at the bakery. She was always so professional, answered all my questions (I had a lot) and just very very nice! I cannot wait to have another event or party so I can get another cake made! Another cool thing this bakery offers is instead of freezing your top layer for a year, they make you a fresh top layer! I can't wait to get that!

    A friend brought cupcakes from this bakery over for my birthday. I'm not sure on order process, price, and such as didn't order them however their taste and packaging were excellent. I'm not a sweets person but these cupcakes were delish! The flavors we had were the margarita, strawberry cheesecake and vanilla and all were super moist and were a huge hit with everyone. They did have fillings so if you're not a fan, be aware. The frosting tasted like a buttercream and was tasty and not overpowering. If I was in the area, I definitely would order from them.

    Something Sweet Bakery did our wedding cake in October 2023. Prior to choosing this bakery for our wedding cake, we had tried other places in Sacramento since we live up in that area. Something Sweet Bakery by far had the most moist cake and the best customer service. All the other bakeries we had tried in Sacramento did not do any one on one tastings. Here at Something Sweet Bakery you can book a tasting ahead of time, try all the types of flavors, and most importantly discuss your vision for your cake. I want to reiterate that they had the MOST moist cake out of all the other bakeries we had tried. I also had them do cupcakes for my husband for rehearsal dinner with our dogs faces on them. They were adorable! The fact that I was willing to get my desserts and wedding cake in Galt instead of Sacramento is enough proof that this is the bakery of choice for wedding cakes. You will NOT be disappointed.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon and the place was packed with a mix of new customers and patrons…read more My eyes were delighted with their yummy pastries display. The line moved too quick I wish i couldve have more time to decide so i ended up getting more than I wanted. We got there Chocolate croissant, brioche, Flan Vanille, macaroons, marshmallow, 2 tuna sandwich, ham and cheese croissant and the croque monsieur. Although everything was pleasant our favorite was the Flan Vanille and the tuna sandwiches. The Flan vanille is my new favorite dessert going forward. I know it was a busy day and the staff was busy with the orders and service making tables available however they could improve in checking their bathroom and trash bins. All bins were too full even one by the counter. We notice that the staff continously wiping the counter but didnt notice the overflowing trash bin. Other than that i couldnt stop bragging about Mason Benoit on my social media. We will definitely come back.

    Such a nice quaint French bakery store front with indoor and outdoor seating. So many pastries to…read morechoose from. Every single one of them looking so delectable. From time to time, I pick up a box of chouquettes. Ten to be exact. Can't just have one and it's nice to share. It's simple yet so tasty. I especially enjoy them with some coffee/expresso. The bakery is always busy, but that's not surprising. Their pastries are really good.
