Stopped in as I was exploring the neighborhood. I was welcomed by friendly service and I left with some delicious cookies! I ordered the pecan raspberry, peanut butter toffee, and--while they were all yummy--my personal favorite, ginger molasses. read more

I would like to update my review for the Sweeterie. I came here 10 years ago and really enjoyed it then. The peanut butter was my favorite. Now that I live near the area, I can enjoy it more often and this time my Mr. had the pleasure to try them. I was going to a dinner party and wanted to bring something sweet and support local/businesses at the same time. I thought of this place. This cute shop is very small and have limited flavors. But what they make up is decadent and rich flavors of cupcakes. They are fancy and delicious. Something you would see in a wedding magazine. It was hard to choose so we ended up getting: 2 Peanut Butter 2 Vanilla 2 Black/White They also serve mini cupcakes and cookies. All at a fair price. Not sure of the dietary restrictions if they make gluten free/Vegan. And last, they specialize in weddings. This will be my go to for cupcakes. They were good 10 years ago and even better now. read more

I work 3rd shift, I went back and forth in email to get my cookies made. Susan was so kind to accommodate me. The cookies were the best I've ever tasted. I truly appreciate her kindness in helping me! If you need delicious cookies, this is the place!!! read more

My lady and I were going to a friend's place for dinner and wanted to bring some sweet treats for dessert. She had gotten desserts from this place before and recommended it so we decided to get the goods here. Definitely glad we did too! I mean... Who can say no to tasty gourmet cupcakes? "Not I!", said the fly guy! We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon, and simply walking into the place, seeing and smelling everything they had to offer, I was already sold. The place itself isn't huge at all but offers quite a few options for cupcakes, cookies, and other baked desserts. Can't do a whole cupcake? Get some minis! Everything is made fresh in house daily and looks amazingly decadent. My lady and I looked at all the cupcakes, somehow refraining for getting one of EVERYTHING, and instead deciding on two of three different kinda; two chocolate peanut butter (because anything chocolate and peanut butter is my Achilles' heel), two vanilla party cake, and two black & white. When we got to our friend's place, she and her husband were very impressed with the look, and of course the epic taste, of the cupcakes. They were all very moist, rich, and delicious. The chocolate peanut butter was absolutely a big hit with all of us. Let's face it, we all need a sweet tooth fix every now and then, and I'd say Sweeterie is an excellent place to get that fix. Again, who can say not to tasty gourmet cupcakes. I didn't and I doubt anyone who stops by here would either. read more

We ordered cookies and mini cupcakes for a baby shower. everything was incredible! beautiful and delicious. everyone raved about them!

Let me start by saying I do not like sweets...or cake...or the texture of cake. Let me now say, WOW!!!!!!!!! Didn't know this place existed we kind of stumbled upon it but I am sure glad we did. With all these cupcakeries popping up it's kind of hard to seperate the good ones from the phonies. This place does it right. This is not some mom pumpin out cupcakes for the soccer team. This is a pastry chef that knows what she is doing. We got the buttercream white chocolate and the cherry almond. When I took a bite of the first one I thought wow, this is the best cupcake I have ever eaten. Then I tried the second one., and thought no THIS is the best one I have ever eaten. These cupcakes are not super duper sweet. They have layers of flavor more like food than sweets. You bite into it and immediatly get the buttery savory flavor and then a hint of the icy cool chocolate finish. If all cupcakes tasted like this I would weigh 2,000 pounds. I have been thinking about this damn cupcake for like a week straight. Too bad it's all the way in mariemont. But whenever I make the trip out there this place will be the stop on my list! read more

I don't have what you'd call a 'sweet tooth', but -- boy, oh boy -- is The Sweeterie delicious! After eating at Dilly Cafe one afternoon, my sister-in-law mentioned the 'cute place upstairs' but we didn't have time to stop in (I took note of the cute logo and figured it couldn't be half bad). So when her birthday rolled around I thought, 'what better to get her than a treat (or two) from The Sweeterie?' The inside was not as frilly as I'd expected, but it was clean and cute nonetheless. (Frankly, I liked that the decor wasn't invasive, contrived or over the top.) It -- of course -- smelled delicious, but at first glance it didn't seem that there were a ton of choices. Not that it even mattered, because what I did get was more than selection enough. I opted for three cupcakes: Party CupCake, Chocolate Peanut Butter, and Double Chocolate Fudge. Before I gave my SIL her cupcakes, I was sure to try the latter (I had to make sure it wasn't poisonous, y'know). I don't even know if I have the words for just how delicious it was. (She didn't find them too shabby, either.) It may seem a bit pricey if you think more than $3 per cupcake is expensive, but when this delicacy costs less than a greeting card these days, how can it not be worth it? read more

Sweeterie - Chocolate Peanut Butter and Party CupCake - Desserts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I love the Sweeterie, especially since it is so close by and only a walk away. Their cupcakes are delicious, maybe not the best in town, but definitely the most creatively decorated. I love her adorable ideas. Their cake is pretty moist - not dry and crumbly - and their icing is good - some are great though. Their black raspberry cupcake, a seasonal in October I believe it was, was my all time favorite. Mostly, I can never go because it is always open when I am work, and never when I come home. read more

There are several things that I like in life. A few notable mentions are folk music, morning dew on the grass, Judd Apatow films, and kittens. However, there are only a few things in life that I truly love. Those would be women, crack, and cupcakes. Okay, crack was a joke, which just leaves women and cupcakes. And since women have a tendency to berate me and leave me I'd have to say that cupcakes are the one thing in life that I truly love unconditionally. So when I think of getting a cupcake my mind generally directs me to one place - The Sweeterie. This quaint, aesthetically pleasing, little bakery is located in the beautiful village of Mariemont. You won't find much of anything at this cupcakery (God, I love that word) but about ten varieties of cupcakes and a couple different cookies. But what you will find is a stunning selection among the ten different cupcakes offered. My three favorites would be the Coconut Cupcake, the Chocolate Chip Cookie Cupcake, and the Carrot Cake Cupcake. The cupcakes here are soft, inspiring, wonderfully prepared, and amazing to the palate. They say money can't buy you happiness but at The Sweeterie $3.25 can buy you a delicious cupcake which in my book is pretty much the same thing. You owe it to your stomach and your soul to make your way to The Sweeterie at your next earliest convenience! read more

Sweeterie - Chocolate coconut cupcake - Desserts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Incredible quality cupcakes and service. I ordered pink-filled cupcakes for my daughter's gender reveal a few years ago and the cupcakes blew me away!! It was a perfect experience and the employees were very kind to me. They made me feel celebrated and special. read more

The Sweeterie is my go to place when I get a craving for something sweet. Their cupcakes are simply awesome. The small store and limited selection really emphasizes the homemade touch and personal feel that the store has. My go to is the Peanut Butter Chocolate. Today's did not disappoint. The amount peanut butter is generous, but not overwhelming. The cake itself had chocolate chips that were slightly melted in its base, leaving you with a gooey bite. Topped with a mini Reese cup. A+++ Another favorite is the Strawberry one. I haven't had it in a while, but I remember that the icing was simply superb. Only downside is they have uncommon hours. Be sure to check that they're open before getting your mind set on a delicious sweet! read more

Sweeterie - Peanut Butter Chocolate Cupcake - Desserts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Fantastic cupcakes. My favorites are the chocolate chip cookie dough and chocolate peanut butter, but each flavor I've tried has been great (and my brothers would agree). The bakery also offers buckeyes (peanut butter chocolate candies that are delicious) and cookies (okay.. the hard version, not the soft, gooey kind I prefer). While I've moved away from Cincinnati, I frequently stop here on a trip home. read more

My oh my!!! These cupcakes are rich, but not too rich, and yes, you can eat the whole thing in one sitting! Hahaha. I bought an assortment and didn't wanna share. Is that terrible? Each flavor was crafted with care. Next time i visit Cincy I will definitely have to go back!!! read more

its been a year and a lot has been going on in the Cupcake game around Cincinnati. I needed to retry Sweeterie to see if my 5-star review holds up. Am I still as enamored with their chocolate chip cupcake? The answer is YES. I still stand behind it. Their Chocolate Chip Cupcake is the BEST cupcake in Cincinnati. Its unique and innovated and unbelievably delicious. They should be very proud of themselves read more

Best cupcakes in the country! I have had many gourmet cupcakes and even cupcakes that have won cupcake wars, THE SWEETERIE BEATS THEM ALL! We moved and I miss this place so much. Worth the extra money!!! Plus, the cupcakes a huge and can easily be shared. You can tell they use high quality ingredients and they have mastered some wonderful flavor combos! This place is a MUST TRY for anyone visiting the area. Like Greaters Ice Cream, this place is the best! read more

My boyfriend and I were in town for a wedding, and we wanted something a little sweet. We are from Chicago and there are a ton of cupcake places there. None of those places come even close to the Sweeterie. Seriously, the chocolate chip cookie cupcake might be the best dessert in the midwest, and the carrot came in a close 2nd. There is SO much flavor and substance, but not a lot of grease or oil-taste. We were totally blown away by the cupcakes we got at the Sweeterie. AND the owners were super friendly. read more

I am pretty picky about my cupcakes, so I don't often buy them in stores or bakeries because I would rather just bake them at home, otherwise I'm usually disappointed. But I just love the Sweeterie! Perfect cake, perfect flavors, & some of their cupcakes remind me of my own recipes, so I know I won't be disappointed. My only request is more icing please! I know it's just not their style to pile on the frosting, I just enjoy it so much, I wouldn't mind having more of it! but I can't complain, because I have only ever left their shop with a smile on my face. Their hours are a little weird, but I've also enjoyed their cupcakes in the bakery case at the Anderson Kroger marketplace (not sure if that's still a thing) definitely give this place a try if you're in the area...yummiest cupcake, cutest shop & in the most adorable town, the Sweeterie doesn't get enough credit!!! read more

I love Susan's place. Small sweet and inspired. Worth walking upstairs for one of the city's best sweet spots. Don't ever buy store-bought cookies or cupcakes in a place like this is around in your within 20 miles. read more

I have not physically been in here but my boyfriend brings me their cupcakes. I don't always love cupcakes (I know, weird, I'm not huge on frosting) but these are out of this world. I have had several different flavors and they are all to die for. Very creamy rich icing that is not too sweet and more flavorful. They are also very pretty so that makes me happy when I'm eating them. The cake part is so moist and delicious and they put chunks of awesome inside. I strongly recommend stopping by!! Boyfriend says the service is great by the way :) read more

Wow! I was surprised how good the cupcake I got here was! From the looks of it, it looked like a simple red velvet cupcake. But when I got it home and ate it the next day I was very surprised! The frosting was just delightful, and then on the bottom of the cupcake, was an Oreo baked right in! Wow, it really took it to the next level. I didn't want the cupcake to end as I was eating it! My boyfriend had a double chocolate cupcake, and he said it was one of the best he'd ever had; he said it was a little dark but not too dark, and that he didn't want it to end either. I got myself a cookie that day to have also, you know, to keep myself from eating the cupcakes sitting on my passenger seat of my car. The cookie was almost too pretty to eat, but I decided to dive right in, and wow it was delicious! Usually a cookie is either pretty or delicious, but this one was both! I have only been to a few bakeries in the city, but this one is the best I've had so far for cupcakes. Check it out! read more

My daughter and I visited on a Thursday. We were warmly greeted by the cashier. The baker came out from the kitchen and offered a pleasant smile. We felt like they were genuinely glad to have us. The prices were a slightly higher than we are accustomed to, $3.50 per cupcake. We bought four- 2 carrot cake, 1 lemon, and 1 white chocolate something or other. I sampled the lemon, which was perfectly flavored but a little dry and the white chocolate. The white chocolate was amazing. I almost threw the little candy topper away. I'm so glad I didn't. It was without a doubt the best white chocolate cupcake I've ever tasted.... but again it was a little dry. We gave one of the carrot cake cupcakes away and my husband had the last. He thought the carrot cake was one of the best he's had and it was MOIST! I wonder if they bake everyday. We will be back.... Maybe next time we'll visit on Friday. read more

Freaking dreamiest best cupcake I've ever had. I was under the impression I had died and went to carrot cake heaven. I was mistaken but nonetheless, very convincing. My tastebuds danced upon a field of cream cheese icing. It was so moist I didn't need a glass of water after. I've only had one cupcake from here but plan to come back for many more, maybe pursue a relationship with them. We will see how it goes. read more

The Sweeterie is awesome!! Their cupcakes are always fresh and tasty. I love visiting them for a sweet treat after having lunch at the Dilly Deli downstairs. They also have a chocolate cookie, I think it's called the triple chocolate cookie, that is insanely good. The owner is often there and so nice! read more

Sweeterie - Pumpkin spice & black magic raspberry. Soo good - Desserts Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I needed some last minute cupcakes for a small work goodbye event. I always saw the signs for Sweeterie on my way to work, so I figured I would stop there. I was in on a Monday evening (5pm-ish), and their selection was extremely limited. That was pretty expected; however, the pricing was not expected. A boutique bakery in Mariemont, I should have known! I paid $16 for THREE cupcakes. I needed more, but at that price- no way. The cupcakes were pretty good, but not worth the price. I hate to say that because I love supporting local businesses (and with a sweet tooth, especially bakeries), but that was just unexpectedly expensive. read more

This is a great shop with great people.$3.25 for a cup cake is a great price because the ingredients are top shelf. Stop in and feed your sweet tooth it will thank you. Support locally owned!! read more

I always forget that the Sweeterie is up above Starbucks, but every time I go I'm always oh so happy with the treats I got! We had a baby shower for a friend and ordered the most delicious mini cupcakes. It was the first time I've tried their buttercream frosting and it was absolutely delicious - one of the best in Cincy. Would highly recommend go events or just an afternoon treat! read more

Went over the weekend after lunch was cool inside with fantastic and accommodating service. The employees were very friendly as well as helpful. Certainly will be going to this spot next time I'm in the neighborhood! read more

This is my go-to when I want to pick up a special cupcake (or two or three or four....) for a special occasion. The shop is hidden up over Dilly Deli. The flavors are fun and the cupcakes are beautiful. These are the real deal. read more

The double chocolate, white chocolate raspberry and carrot cupcakes are very good too!

These are more like B-cup cakes, and I like D-cup cakes... especially for the price, I like a little size. They are seriously cheaper at trendy places in Los Angeles. I don't think the cupcake trend has gotten here yet, In their defense, it was late in the day, and their selection was picked over. The upstairs location is a set back. read more

With all the cupcakeries in the city, I hope this one stays a best-kept secret. I loathe cupcakes normally. They are usually far too cloying, dry, and crumbly messes. These are THE. BEST cupcakes I have ever had. Please dont take that as hyperbole. You can taste the difference of quality ingredients and where your money is going. read more

I had a Buttermilk White Chocolate cupcake. It was the best three minutes of my life.

I can be cheap. And the cheap person in me would raise an eyebrow at the thought of paying $3+ for a cupcake. But trust me, these are definitely worth the price. They are huge cupcakes and could easily be shared. Or don't share, because they are THAT good. The Chocolate Marshmallow Fluff, completely with fluff filling, is one of my favorites. Don't try to eat that one outside on a hot day though, cause it will be messy! read more

I have read reviews about Sweeterie and finally made the short trip to try this cupcakerie. In a small and unassuming storefront are the freshest, flavor filled locally baked treats I have found. The chocolate fluff cupcake was filled with a fluff/buttercream mixture and the batter contained barely melted chocolate chips. All of this was coated with a layer of rich ganache for the perfect taste explosion. The owner was friendly and welcoming making this a place to hurry back to, if only the cupcakes had no calories...but so worth it for a special treat! read more

Absolutely amazing!!! That pretty much sums up how good this place is. I only allow myself a visit to the store once in a while for a special treat to myself (gotta fit into that wedding dress!) I love cupcakes, and believe it is probably the best desert option out there. The cupcakes at sweeterie are to die for. I haven't even had a chance to try the cookies, but I am sure they are just as awesome. You can tell they use quality ingredients and take pride in their baked goods. My faves: Red velvet, chocolate marshmallow fluff, peanut butter chocolate... Amazing! I am even thinking about doing cupcakes from here for my wedding next year :-) read more

My name is Kim W. I had seen a review of Sweeterie comparing it to Yum Cupcakes in Oakley. I thought there was something missing in the "other" cupcakes however, couldn"t put my finger on it. After reading a review on here about the "other" place being expensive and the cupcakes were dry that was what I couldn"t put my finger on. My niece was in town from St. Louis. I had been saving coming to Sweeterie until she came to visit. I surprised her on Sat July 28thwith a visit to Sweeterie. I was so EXCITED about taking her there as a surprise. I had her close her eyes and we walked to the store. When we got there there was no one inside the store then I saw the sign which read CLOSED FOR VACATION. My heart SANK. I was so disappointed !! My niece said it's OK. It really wasn't to me. We walked away down the steps to get her some ice cream at our famous ice cream place the one that is located in Mariemont for another first time experience. As we walked away I looked up to the store and there was a lady we had seen from the spa upstairs pointing to us with a lady who told us to come closer. I explained how my niece was from out of town and I wanted to surprise her with getting cupcakes from Sweeterie however, it was closed for vacation. The lady I didn't get her name I am thinking it was the owner told us to come back up. She opened the door for us and had some cupcakes she was making for a catering party. She brought out the cupcakes she had and explained what each one was and told us to pick the one we wanted. I was so HAPPY.We ended up buying (5) of them for family here and in St. Louis. I WAS SO GRATEFUL AND APPRECIATIVE OF HER OPENING HER DOOR TO HER BUSINESS TO ACCOMODATE US. I am headed back tomorrow to get (1) cupcake as I am on a diet. I will call first !!! If you haven"t tried Sweeterie give a try like I did. I DON'T THINK YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED. Tell the lady that opened the door I said HELLO. read more

ordered cupcakes for my grandsons 1st birthday party. bought a few to taste. they are fabulous. can't wait for the party. it feels good to support a locally female owned business. read more

My sister surprised me with cupcakes for my birthday. She said the owner was really nice, the store was adorable and she was really pleased with the variety of choices. The Vanilla Cupcake is really good. The Chocolate Chip Cupcake is AMAZING! I love chocolate chip cookies but never had a chocolate chip cupcake. It was rich, thick and filling. It tasted just like a delicious chocolate chip cookie. If you go there, you gotta try it. DELICIOUS! read more

The best cupcakes. Period. Had a dark chocolate peppermint the other day...beautiful and awesome tasting. Wow.
