I have not tried Sweet it Is BUT if I needed a wedding cake i absolutely would. I was looking for a custom cake for my Mom and this place is a number one pick on Yelp. Customer service was top notch. The owner took the time to call me back and let me know that she only does wedding cakes but provided me with referrals and one worked out very well. Thank you! read more

I don't even know where to begin! Lori is such a sweet and humble person. From our tasting I knew we were in good hands for our wedding cake. The details for cake were executed perfectly. The flavors were all our guests could talk about. Thank you so much for completing our day! read more

I am from Texas and was looking for someone to make some custom cookies for me to leave with my son and his roommates at UNCC. Ms. Lori could have explained that she doesn't make cookies and be finished with me. What makes her 5 star stellar is that she provided me with 3 bakeries in the area that make custom cookies and could help me. Thank you! I will definitely keep your number for future birthday cakes, school ring cakes, and graduation cakes. You, my dear, are oozing with integrity and awesome character. Thank you once again from this Texas mom about to leave my heart in Charlotte. Kate read more

Let me begin by saying Lori is our family baker. We trust her and love her delicious cakes, cookies, and cupcakes that much! We only go else where when I neglect to book her in time and out of respect for not springing an order on her in short notice. Lori has provided baked goods for our son's Baptism, family birthdays, promotions, and she has also provided excellent service to friends as well. I once asked Lori to bake a cake of a computer motherboard as our son's birthday cake and she replicated it perfectly. Always the hit of a party! I love all her goodies but you must try the pound, lemon, and amoretto sour flavours. The professionalism and quality of service is unmatched in Charlotte! read more

Their cakes are amazing. I'm not a fan of sweets that are too sweet. They can customize the sweetness! Best in the CLT area!

I hired this company to do my cake for my baby shower. Originally it was to be a gender reveal but then we accidentally found out the gender so decided to change it to just a baby shower cake. I was back and forth with the owner multiple times because I kept changing my mind, she was beyond helpful and patient with me and my many changes. The cake was everything we wanted and more! Aesthetically pleasing gets 5 stars, but taste wise..... OMG 10 STARS!!! It was so moist and satisfying!!! I couldn't have been happier!!! Will definitely not only recommend but I'll be back as a return customer for his first bday cake and any event in between then read more

Kudo's to Sweet it is for an amazing Panther's jersey cake for my son's birthday party! The cake was exactly what I asked for and was a beautiful creation to look at. Everyone at the party enjoyed it and my son was so excited. The fondant was not bitter but instead had a nice flavor to it. Looking forward to trying other goodies from you in the future. read more

I really dont think there are enough hours in the day for me to tell you about my experience with this baker. Lori is absolutely THE BEST!!!!!! I only gave her an "Idea" of how I wanted my son's graduation cake and she TOOK IT TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL!!! The detail in his cake was UNBELIEVABLE!!! He is a sneakerhead and the Jordan shoe on his cake was so lifelike he didnt even want to cute into it! now all of this was on the design and look of the cake, we have not even begun to discuss how INCREDIBLY MOIST THIS CAKE WAS!!!! I changed it from Marble to red velvet a week before and she was gracious enough to allow me to make the change so close to the time I needed the cake. Again I could go on and on about this bakery but you MUST try it for yourself!!! You will NOT be disappointed!!!!! THANK YOU LORI!!!!!!!!! read more

Sweet It Is! - BLOWN AWAY!!! - Desserts Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I recently ordered a two tier cake for a baby shower along with chocolate covered strawberries. The bottom tier was blue velvet and the top tier was pound cake the cake was sooo delicious, and moist. Everyone loved it there were no complaints, they just wanted more. Lori was very pleasant, she responds quickly and very professional. I loved when I first met her she provided me with samples of her cakes and icings and even though I'm not a fan of fondant her home made fondant was spectacular. I would definitely use her again. Thank you Lori and Calvin. read more

This cake was amazing! First off it is HEAVY. The flavors, moist essay, and texture were perfect. This fed 15 people with slices left over. read more

Sweet It Is! - a half eaten piece of cake - Desserts Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

My friends texted me after our wedding asking where we got the cupcakes from, then upset that they couldn't easily just go buy a few more - they said they were the best cupcakes they'd ever had. We had a fabulous time with the tasting that they laid out for us. We went with a simple icing on the cake - preferring to emphasize flavor (we don't like how tons of decorations taste). The variety of cake and icing choices was my favorite part - our guests could really have different experiences (Loved the Bailey's icing options for sure!!) read more

The Italian cream cake for my birthday was THE best Italian cream ever. It literally weighed over 5 lbs. and was so incredibly moist and not too sweet! read more

Lori did a fabulous job on the custom cake for my husbands surprise birthday party. He is a former DJ and still loves to play on his turntables. So I sent Lori pics of my husband's turntable and his favorite song. Lori and her team nailed it. So happy with the results and the chocolate cake tasted unbelievably delicious. read more

I ordered a birthday cake for my son from Lori and sent her a design of a character my son likes. She went above and beyond to make such a perfect cake!

Everyone loved the birthday cake and thought it was perfect!!! Thank you Lori, I'm looking forward to eating my leftover piece of cake (I mean my son is looking forward to it...) read more

Mrs. Lori was awesome to work with and was highly recommended. Mr.s Lori was so easy to work with, from our initial cake tasting to random questions about our cake throughout the wedding planning process...this was one area of the wedding that I didn't have to worry or stress about. Unfortunately, my husband and I only had a small bite of the cake when we fed each other, but our guests are still raving about the red velvet cake! We have our top tier in our freezer, awaiting our first anniversary - we can't wait to eat it. Thank you again!!!! read more

I'm a fan for excellent customer service!! Wow, and when you pair great customer service with an excellent product,...ahemmm cupcake, then I'm all over it! I called Lori 2 days before tThanksgiving to inquire about cupcakes for the day after Tgiving. I knew it was a long shot but I was a desperate auntie trying to pull together a last minute slumber party for my niece. Lori was pleasant and professional and did not blink twice at my last minute request. The cupcakes were delivered, YES, delivered on time and Lori remembered little details from our conversation and added some appropriate bling to make them even more festive. Oh... And they tasted wonderful! Moist, sweet but not overdone. My niece has never eaten an entire slice of birthday cake because cake is not her thing but she gobbled up these cupcakes! Thanks Lori for helping this auntie keep her title as the best auntie ever!! read more

Best cake ever. I got my wife the coconut cake for her birthday. Unreal is all I can say. We froze half of it l, and then pulled it out about a year later and it was still as good then. Do even hesitate get a cake. read more

Working with Lori and Calvin was a joy! I was given the task of planning the office Holiday party and wanted something with lots of options that everyone would like. I contacted Lori and was given a huge selection of items for a custom dessert bar. The choices were so plentiful, there were pies, cookies, cakes, cheesescakes, lemon squares, cake pops and more. There was truly something for everyone, and the pricing was very reasonable for all that we recieved. Communication was great. All my emails and calls were returned within the hour. Lori and Calvin were on time for set up and made a beautiful display. We had about 250 people and everyone RAVED about the desserts. Not only was the presentation spectacular, but they tasted divine! The strawberry champagne cake shooters and fresh fruit tarts were especially amazing! The desserts were the perfect size for people to pick up and take with them on the dance floor while they partied. My boss packed a to go box he loved it so much. I can say our company will be using Sweet it is again. They made our event amazing. Thank you Lori and Calvin for being a joy to work with. read more

Sweet It Is has done it again! My mother recently planned a Celebration of Life party & she wanted Sweet It Is to make all of the items for her dessert bar. The event was held this past Saturday and my mother's still receiving calls about the dessert bar. Lori packed the items and I was able to transport them from Charlotte, NC to Georgetown, SC. Not only did they arrive safely, but the desserts were fabulous!!!! It was a Mardi Gras themed party and Sweet It Is went all out to make sure that the theme was represented. There was a Mardi Gras cake as the centerpiece and the guests left with sugar cookies in the shape of Mardi Gras masks (in a variety of colors). Thank you Lori.....see you soon! read more

I don't usually write reviews but I felt very compelled to write one for SweetItIs. I contacted Lori the week of my nephews baptism to get a quote for some baptism cookies. She was so responsive and understood exactly what I wanted. She provided the quote very fast and the whole transaction was so smooth which I really appreciated since I live in Charleston SC. Later in the week, I realized I needed to order something else to go along with the cookies so I contacted her last minute and she called right back. She was able to add on a dozen cupcakes (variety) and those were delivered with my cookies with a baptism theme as well! After the delivery, she then sent me an email confirming they were delivered along with a picture of everything. They were beautiful! Everything turned out so perfect. Such a great experience especially since I live farther away! I would definitely recommend working with Lori. I'm so glad I did! read more

Not only the prettiest cake I've ever ordered, but absolutely delicious and top notch service! I ordered it just one week before the event, and it was delivered on time, and beyond expectations. Lori was so pleasant, creative and easy to work with. And my guests raved!!!!! Thanks, Lori read more

This review is for the consultation that I had with this business. Setting up the consultation I called her and we set a date. She then asked me for my address so that she could text me her address, so I did. She texted me her address and then began to ask me a number of questions via text and send me links. I'm not going to lie, this was pretty annoying to me as i'd rather conduct business via email or over the phone. I did explain this to her however and she was nice about it and held off until our consultation. The consultation was free and was for a birthday cake so I wasn't expecting anything more than a conversation. However, I walked in and she had a spread prepared of at least 8 different cakes and a few icings. She also provided fruit infused water. I was impressed. Our conversation went well and based off the tastings I knew which flavor that I would get if I went with her. That Amaretto cake is stuff dreams are made of! I was also able to meet her husband as he stopped in to pickup a cake for a delivery. Very friendly family! I however ended up not going with her, only because I found a different baker who specializes in custom shaped and designed cakes and their details and artistic abilities surpassed. However, I would still recommend Sweet It Is for their cakes. They do beautiful designs and her cakes taste very good! She is definitely still on my list of possible bakers in the future! read more
