    Healthier cookies, taste great. They are also very accommodating into my order and pick up. I do have to say they have limited hours.

    Asian-style bakery w/ confections that are way less sweet than American, or even, European…read moredesserts. I was seeking a cake not frosted with Buttercream, or not frosted at all, so I thought I'd give this a try. I really wanted the Taro Cake but whimped out when considering the taste of who I'd be sharing it with, but did get to try it. It taste, both in profile & texture, like a sweet potato. Purchased a Vanilla Strawberry Fresh Cream Cake. It was light in texture, not terribly different from Angel Food Cake, but absent of other flavors. Less sweet cakes often have overtones of almond or citrus that shine through, but this tasted like a vanilla cake minus the sugar. When I sliced into it I was hoping for more of a strawberry puree inside, but it appeared to be just sliced strawberries & a whole lot of unsweetened whipped cream. A little 1 dimensional for me. It was packaged beautifully w/ a lady finger & birthday candle. The gentleman working the counter was super helpful & I look forward to trying the Matcha & other flavors in the future. This one was a miss for me. While I barely have a sweet tooth, I need a little more going on than what was presented. That's a preference, not a criticism.

I got the strawberry saga which is like a strawberry milk drink with jelly on the bottom. I've been here multiple times and the owner's always kind and gets orders out pretty quick. I got a black sesame crepe cake to go which my partner enjoyed. My friend and I left and came back for our treats as they can spoil easily and they held onto our orders.

    I thought I'd written a review about this place before but to my shock I had not…read more I have been coming here since the day they opened, infrequently beacuse I am diabetic but when I want to spoil my body with delicious sugar, honey, this is *IT*. Now I could tell you all about how perfectly tasty everything is. From the classic banana puddings (I prefer the caramel version myself,) to the cookies, to the pineapple upside-down mini cakes. Yes, I could tell you that. But I want to speak to something deeper. I want to speak to belonging and community; and to fairness. As a biracial person with a brown sister, I feel the pull to support black and brown businesses. It's not a secret. And sometimes you do it, and sometimes you privately think "Damn. I wanna be supportive but this place is a mess." Then there's Sweet Life. NOT that. FILLED with good product at a great price, delivered by owners and staff who actually give a damn about being loving and supportive to all different types of people. And did I mention the sweets are POPPIN'? And to that statement of fairness. Today I came in to place an order, and when the price came up, for a moment I thought "Damn. That is a lot higher than I remembered, but I am not about to question them. They set the price and that price is what they deserve." So I paid. But then I noticed there was more in my bag that I'd asked for, and that there had been a miscommunication. When I tell you that this miscommunication was corrected with swiftness *AND* a smile. No shade. No drama. Just an "Ooops, oh well, here's your refund on the balance." I know this seems very basic but we all know it isn't. We have all been in that awkward situation where as a customer we have to point out an error, and the vendor turns it into a Shakespearan tragedy. Not Sweet Life. "Oops. Sorry! Fixed. Love you." So, to recap: Stunningly delicious sweets. Prices fair as hell. Communicative, inclusive staff doing the right thing. You need to take those money dollers and haul your ass over here TODAY. Now...where did I put my insulin pen?

    Sweet Box Cupcakes is located in a cute area of Philadelphia. I have been a customer 4 times now…read moreand when I am in the area I try to come back when possible. The The selection of cupcake flavors, and other bakery items is perfect. It is hard to make a decision only because everything looks good. There is not a large amount of items to chose from, it is the perfect amount. My favorite is their chocolate base cakes. They are so good. All their cupcakes are moist and never dry. I do love that they have edible cookie dough, brownies, and cookies. So its like a little for everyone. They have dome seasonal flavors and the basic betty flavors. There is nothing wrong with a basic betty flavor. There are times that I just need a simple chocolate cupcake or a simple take on a chocolate chipp cookie. Their packaging is simple, practical yet cute. Everytime I have been in the staff have been great. They are always warm and inviting. Whenever I ask what a flavor involves, they do not hesitate to inform me. Afterwards you can walk a little further to the corner and get a drink down at a little coffee shop and enjoy your goodies inside.

Sometimes a cupcake can be OVERLY Sweet, but most of the ones I've tried from Sweet Box are just right. The price is a little steep, but it's worth it to support a small biz, especially one as great as Sweet Box.
