There was a very enthusiastic girl working behind the counter when we walked in. She sold my cousin…read moreon butter tarts even though she doesn't like them. She assured us that these are better than any other that we've had before. With all the construction going on the street the businesses on Locke Street have banded together to support each other. If you spend a certain amount in one shop and go to another, show the second business your receipt from the first one for the discount. The box they put your goodies in is quite sturdy so you don't have to worry about everything shifting all over the place during your travels. The whoopie pie was a good ratio of chocolate cake to cream filling. I'm not a fan of cream but this went well with the cake mounds. My cousin did find the cake on the dry side. I don't like things that are very sweet so I found the butter tart on the sweet side but not too, too sweet. My cousin's friend loves butter tarts and said that the crust is really well done and the filling was runny but not too much. Also being $3 a piece is much better than $4.25 somewhere else.

My brother-in-law and I were recently in search of some treats for my sister's birthday. My sister…read moreis the person who splits the cake part of a cupcake in two and makes a cupcake sandwich so when we saw Bitten had whoopie pies we thought it might take the work out of the treat for her and decided we would try this place out. Driving down Locke, Bitten ended up being pretty easy to find with it's bright, big, and bold signage. The inside is a lot of fun with neon walls and of course, a counter full of cupcakes, whoopie pies and butter tarts. We were greeted by two happy bakers who were so friendly and so helpful, especially given my brother-in-law has anaphylactic allergies to peanuts and soy protein so we often need to get some insight into their preparation processes. There weren't as much variety of whoopie pies as we hoped but there was a large selection of cupcakes so we decided to go for those instead. We told the lady serving us we weren't sure if we wanted six or twelve because our plan was to just get six but the flavours all seemed awesome. She told us to just start choosing and we'd go from there. I am pretty sure she knew we wouldn't just stick to six and we definitely didn't. Around the eight or ninth cupcake, it dawned on us there were twelve flavours total so we ended up with one of each. The cupcakes are so pretty and made for such a festive celebration. Honestly, they are some of the most beautifully decorated cupcakes I've seen which is always nice. Taste wise, I tried three over a few days: Rainbow, Fairy Bread and their red velvet. While I must say the first two (while fun and lovely) were a bit underwhelming since they were basically just vanilla cupcakes, their red velvet cupcake was wonderful. It was so moist and rich and had wonderful cream cheese frosting. The others were less stand out and memorable. Their other flavours seemed so intriguing though and going by the reactions of my family, I think they were also quite great. I would definitely return again. Between the friendly staff and the beautiful cupcakes with such wonderfully fun flavours, it is worth a visit!!

The decor here is absolutely gorgeous it's got everything cute little bakery should have. It's got a little bit of bling and gorgeous shabby chic furniture. So it's basically a grab and go kind of bakery they don't have plenty of seating apart from some hightop bar stools facing the window looking outside. So I ordered a coffee which was very fresh didn't seem like it was sitting in the percolator for hours. I also had a salted caramel chocolate tart. It was hard on the outside and gooey and chocolatey in the inside I would give it a 10 out of 10. My daughter got a cake pop which was very standard but tasted great. we were lucky to get the high top facing the window.I thoroughly enjoyed sitting there watching the car show that evening and enjoying my coffee here. Is plenty of street parking around them.The service is very friendly and the place is clean and nicely run. I recommend this place to anyone who is visiting downtown Burlington.

When I lived in Montreal, my go-to cupcake place (and probably my overall favourite cupcake shop) was D'Liche, which sadly didn't make it through the covid quarantine. In London, I enjoyed Chick Cake Boss and when I came to Hamilton, I went to Bitten. However, none quite lived up to D'Liche, or even the Cupcake Shoppe...until Beyond the Batter. One bite and I deemed it my new favourite cupcake place. I had been drooling over the flavour list for probably a week now and finally convinced my brother to go grab some. We ended up with an assortment of flavours that not only sound delicious but look lovely. Work fast though because my brother got to the shop about 2.5 hours after they opened and a few flavours were already sold out. He got home with the cupcakes while my sister was on a work call. We are impatient though so we decided to try a cupcake anyways and just grabbed the one we knew she'd have no interest in - Macaroon, a coconut cake cupcake topped with chocolate frosting rolled in toasted coconut. We split it and both fell in love at first bite. My brother is not a frosting fan so for him cupcakes are all about the cake and he has been raving about how light and fluffy, yet flavourful the cake was all afternoon. As for me, I love frosting and cake and the flavours were just so spot on and rich that I was happy. Often frosting/icing can be end up tasting like icing sugar above all else but that wasn't the case here at all. When my sister got off her call, we went in for a second - Men are from Mars, a chocolate cupcake topped with malt frosting dipped in a chocolate shell with a caramel centre. It sounds like a lot but once again they nailed each flavour and they all worked together so well. I normally avoid chocolate cakes but this one was delicious and I'd definitely recommend. In fact, I'd recommended everything I've tried thus far and I'm sure that opinion isn't about to change.
