    Lunar New Year Box - using for decoration since they aren't enjoyable to eat
    Nicole O.

    The macarons are cute but I can't justify buying them anymore. I've bought from Caroline many times at the markets and special orders but they're always just okay. The macarons are dry and crispy, shattering when you bite into them instead of yielding to a chewy center. The flavors in the filling are good ideas but don't always come through. I ended up having to throw out half the box since they were basically inedible. I debated writing this since it is a small business, but I believe they deserve my honesty.

    Macarons including ube flan macarons (disregard cracks--I made when transporting macarons home)

    If you're looking for baked goods that look cute and taste delicious, you need to visit Sweets by Caroline! We first ordered a cute, heart-shaped Valentine's Day lunchbox cake from Caroline last year. The cake was moist and delicious! Picking up the cake was also very easy-- I was texted directions on how to pick-up the cake. Ever since that positive experience, we've followed Caroline on Instagram and subscribed to her newsletter to see what events she'll be at. One of my favorite desserts was her ube flan macaron! It brought me back to my childhood. Overall, I've had an amazing experience from all the desserts I've gotten from Sweets by Caroline. Caroline is a very sweet person and remembers her customers :) It's cool to see her mom at pop-ups too. A definite must-try pop-up bakery in the DMV area!

    Finally was able to try her macarons after following her on IG! Her macarons has the perfect shell with a chewy texture. I got the apple pie and miso caramel at the Mosaic Fall Festival and I actually had to come back to try more flavors. She does to Cakes so I'll keep her in mind for future events!

    A red velvet cake for my 21st birthday

    Sweetsbycaroline makes the best macarons and cakes that I have ever had. Every macaron is always so perfect and I love the variety of flavors that sweetsbycaroline has to offer.Also, all of the fun characters that Caroline can make blow my mind. On top of that, I have tried the red velvet cake more than once because of how much my family loved it. I highly recommend trying the red velvet cake, it has the perfect balance of cake and frosting and the decorations are incredible. On top of everything the customer service is truly amazing. Caroline is such an sweet person. She really cares about every one of her customers and it shows. She is so creative and kind, you will not regret doing business with her.

    Mini lunchbox cake! Tiniest cake for the tiniest babe.
    Jocelyn B.

    Amazing service! If you're looking for quality and clear communication, Caroline is your gal. She made us thee cutest "mini lunchbox cake" for my daughters mini celebration. She's the only baker in the area I was able to find that keeps up with trends and did I mention the taste was divine?! Thanks, Caroline! Looking forward to my next order with you.

    Chinese New Year macaroons

    Sweets by Caroline makes the absolute cutest macaroons ever!! And they taste soooo delicious too. She comes around to many events in the DMV and also has online orders - but beware, she sells out quick! I've ordered macaroons from her twice and they have always been gooey, crunchy, and delicious. I think my favorite flavor has got to be the cookie butter hands down!

    Mooncake Macaron Set

    I purchased two Mooncake Macaron Sets as gifts for my family and neighbors and I am so pleased with how everything turned out! The flavors were so well developed and it was so much fun getting to try each of the treats included in the set. Thank you, Caroline!

    I ordered a cake from Caroline for my 21st and she does not disappoint. I wanted something fun and exciting, and she was very sweet and accommodating with all of my questions. I didn't know exactly what I wanted for the design of the cake so I asked her to go ahead and just have fun with it and it turned out great! I ended up getting a funfetti cake decorated with a wasted on your 21st theme and it was so funny and unique! I wish I got a better picture of it, but all I have is this group photo lol. Caroline, you've always been an amazing artist and baker - thank you for making my 21st that much more special :-)

    Noah's Ark themed cake for baby shower. Funfetti flavor.
    Stephany T.

    Caroline created the most beautiful Noah's Ark themed cake for my baby shower. Everyone gushed about how adorable it was so of course I reached out again to have her create another cake for our son's 100 day celebration. The cake was red velvet with cream cheese frosting and it pleased even my super picky family. We loved how moist the cake was and both the cake and frosting were the perfect sweetness (not too sweet like many fondant cakes tend to be). I shopped around a bit and she is also one of the most reasonably priced bakers for custom cakes. I would definitely recommend her and plan to order many more cakes from her in the future!!

    I tried Caroline's Macarons at an artisan festival in Fairfax. They were so good, I wish I bought more!! My biggest complaint is really that her website doesn't offer the option to buy any macarons unless they are in specialty packs. From reading reviews, it seems like you can only really purchase these at the farmers market, so if you see her, I would recommend stocking up.

    Salted caramel and chocolate macarons
    Meredith P.

    I have been ordering from Caroline since the very beginning. Very polite, fast responding, and honest when it comes to the products and services she delivers. From macarons in the shape of unicorns for my nieces, Xmas orders for my family, to a custom Ferraro Rocher themed cake for my birthday...she's done it all. Walking through layer by layer to make sure it was perfect, even including a 'Happy birthday' sign for the cake. I cannot wait for my next order! My favorites are fruity pebbles, Ferraro rocher, matcha, earl grey, and cookies n cream. Hubby's favorite is her espresso, salted caramel and cookies n cream. Honestly you can't go wrong with any of her flavors tbh.

    I started ordering macaroons from Caroline in the beginning. Then we started ordering from her for special occasion cakes. Her cake is just right- Not overly sweet and moist. And she can do any design that you'd like- both macaroons and cakes! I had her make macaroons and dog shaped donuts for my dogs 9th birthday. She also made my parents Pearl anniversary cake recently with the handmade decor. Absolutely stunning! We've also ordered basic birthday cakes from her but I can't find the pictures. Her sweets are not only tasty but they are also very reasonably priced for the crafted sweets. She is by far my fav baker in the area! Highly recommend.
