Such a cute spot! Small place with few seating options - but there's two outdoor spots outside. I had a delicious matcha latte - i just complain that it didn't last too long - i guzzled it waaay too fast haha! Gluten free options exist: macarons and this sea salt chocolate chip cookie! read more

The Humble Bee Shoppe - Desserts Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

I've been meaning to stop in since I live so close so today, while out walking my dog, I decided to stop in! It was so cute inside! I got an iced pumpkin spice chai latte (with a cute pink heart shaped straw!), a rosemary focaccia, and a chunky chocolate cookie! The woman working the counter was very sweet and didn't mind letting my dog hang around as we waited. So glad this place is open on Sundays now and that I finally stopped in! There's more goodies to try and my dog loved it, too! read more

This is the cutest little bake shop I have had the pleasure of coming across. They are open a limited number of days per week, so be sure to check their business hours before visiting. Located in West End, so there is also plenty of walking and shops to visit before or after you stop for sweets. My favorite item to purchase are the macaroons, but everything looks like it would not disappoint. This cute shop delivers through and through! read more

The Humble Bee Shoppe - the front of the building - Desserts Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

All I can say is go to the Humble Bee if you want a treat that will delight your senses and let you know that somebody loves you. You can taste the heart in each stunningly beautiful, and equally delicious, treat...and I've now tried more than a few. The macarons are pure art, the cinnamon bun is the perfect blend of sweet and gooey with yeast bread...oh my soul! My coffee was made to order and poured into a pink cup with the Humble Bee sleeve that just made me happy and didn't burn my fingers. Can't say enough and wish there were more than 5 stars available! read more

I have been dying to try this bakery, because I am dairy-free. I heard they have amazing vegan cinnamon rolls. I went around 2pm on a Saturday and I was told they just put the cinnamon rolls in the oven and it would be ready in 15-20 minutes. I told her I would come back later. I went to my friend's place and didn't get back to the bakery until 4:30. The cinnamon rolls were all sold out and the cashier said she saved one for me, but she thought I wasn't coming back. That was really sweet of her and I didn't expect the cinnamon rolls to sell out that quick. Instead, I got a vegan pumpkin chocolate chip muffin, which was good. I'll surely be back to try their other baked goods. They do post a daily menu on instagram FYI. read more

The Humble Bee Shoppe - Vegan Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffin - Desserts Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

I visited The Humble Bee for the first time, and I enjoyed it very much. I follow them through Instagram and see their daily bake goods, so I been dying to try it out. Thinking it was going to look like any other bakery I've been to, the Humble bee was a little different. I didn't realize how small of a selection she had, or maybe because it was later in the afternoon. Not the average cupcake and cake slice kind of bakery, but I love the uniqueness this small business has! I picked a few macaroons, a pastry, and a brownie cupcake. OMG, soo good! All of it! They all had unique names to them, but they were definitely worth a try! I'm always up for risk, so I was ready to try something new and I definitely wasn't disappoint. She also offers vegan and gluten free! Can't wait to come back to try other items! read more

Winston has a ton of great bakeries, and Humble Bee is certainly one of the top spots. I love their colorful, cozy interior. They're currently offering colorful meringue pops, brownies, cookies, and fun-flavored marshmallows. I got one of each of the daily macaron flavors - four of which were plant based. Their macarons are perfectly baked and have lots of fun flavors, such as Oreo, matcha, fig & honey, and pumpkin pie. This is a wonderful local spot! read more

Ran across this little specialty bakery purely by chance on our way to nearby restaurant. Glad we did! Love the fact that they specialize in gluten-free products even though I don't require them. I also appreciate the fact that they use only natural ingredients. By the time we got there around 2:00, our choices were limited but we did select a chocolate chip cookie that was delicious and a devilish looking chocolate lava cupcake/muffin/brownie kinda thing that we warmed up and ate the next day. Moist, rich and full of cherries and it was so uniquely awesome that I fear that I can't describe it without using the F-word... it was indeed Fabulous. Wish they were closer by. Hope to return for those macaroons! read more

I'm always on the hunt for macarons, so when my girlfriend and I were in the area for lunch, we decided to take a trip to The Humble Bee Shoppe. First off, parking is a pain. We circled the block twice before someone pulled out of a parking spot. There is street parking and a small gravel lot on the corner, but both were full. And weirdly enough, the gravel lot had a sign that said "no parking," but I'm not sure what else the lot would be used for. The shop itself is cute. The storefront is pretty with hanging flowers and some sidewalk seating, though it's tight. The inside is simply decorated, with a small display of desserts ranging from macarons, cookies, brownies, and muffins. Don't expect to have a lot of options of anything. We ordered a box of macarons (10 for $30). None of the flavors were labeled but the young lady behind the counter was very friendly and went over all the flavors with us. I opted to get the box because the price point for a single macaron is higher than anywhere else I've gone. We tried every flavor- raspberry, strawberry, lemon, pistachio, honey lavender, cookie butter, hot fudge sundae, salted caramel, and blueberry, and to be honest, I wasn't impressed. The only one I actually thought was good was the lemon. My girlfriend liked the cookie butter as well. All of the others lacked flavor. The blueberry didn't taste like anything at all. I also noticed when we opened the box that one macaron was noticeably smaller than the rest. It was barely the size of a quarter. Overall, I was disappointed in the experience. For the cost of that box, I expected something much better. I'm somewhat of a macaron connoisseur and always seek out macarons in every place I travel to. I've had amazing macarons in Charlotte, Atlanta, Raleigh, and Asheville. But the Triad is a total flop when it comes to macarons and The Humble Bee didn't change that. I guess I'll have to keep looking...or traveling. read more

The Humble Bee Shoppe - The blueberry one was so tiny...and for over $3 a piece, not really acceptable. - Desserts Near Me - Winston-Salem, North Carolina

I have had a bit of an addiction to macarons recently and my husband was kind enough to buy me a dozen for my birthday this past year. The Humble Bee is not cheap, but you are absolutely paying for the quality. These were without a doubt the best macarons I have ever had. We had an assorted dozen- in that, my favorites were the lemon, chocolate, blueberry, and pistachio. Needless to say I will absolutely be going back to try more flavors and to get my macaron fix! read more

I love this bakery so much that I booked a separate flight from a work conference in TN to GSO before my final destination in Jacksonville, FL so that I could take a taxi to Winston Salem directly to this shop. I went through TSA with a suitcase full of macarons, sammies, lush brownies, and meringues and I've never felt more like a celebrity in my life. Along the way home, I shared my suitcase full of macs with strangers and there wasn't one single person that wasn't in awe by how amazing they were. This isn't just a place you stumble upon. The Humblebee Shoppe is your destination. I still vividly remember the first day I went to the Humblebee Shoppe. I had never had a good macaron before, but kept hearing how I had to go see Brittany. The difference in such a small cookie opened my eyes to bougie pastries and my expectations have never been the same. Every time I see a macaron that is not from the Humblebee Shoppe, it saddens me. Since that first day, my family has celebrated every birthday for every family member with the Humblebee Shoppe. My children don't ask for Oreos. Oh, no. They need macs. They don't have grocery store birthday cakes. They have custom made tartlets in the shape of the first letter of their name, covered in edible gold and meringue kisses. And just when you think it couldn't get better, we celebrate with a custom charcuterie board because yes - macs and cheese are the combination you didn't know you needed. I guess if you don't want to be happy, you shouldn't come here. If you don't want to elevate your palette, definitely head to the day-old pastry section at Harris Teeter. If you think the pricing isn't in line with what she's offering, please seek therapy to work on finding yourself and determining your worth. Because, at the end of the day, I'd pay $500 for these macs and never look back except to see if there's anything else I want to add to my order. read more

The cutest little bake shop! Staff are so friendly and accommodating. My favorite part is that they offer gluten free and dairy free options. I've tasted macarons from around the world and these are good and seemed fresh. Need to satisfy your sweet tooth check it out!

Me and my daughter love this place we love all the flavors of macaroons we find. Love you guys

I can't rave about The Humble Bee enough; everything is just so dang good. I had stopped by from time to time picking up small things like delicious brownies, cookies and other pastries, all of which were delicious. Then my mind was blown when my friend and I ordered a cake for another friend's birthday. Let me tell you... it was incredible! We gave her full creative discretion when she made the cake and she killed it. Beautiful cake, very delicious. We could not have been happier. Plus she's an amazing person too. Definitely recommended. read more

One of the best locations for vegan treats that I have tried around the country. Everything has true distinct flavor and not just a "sweet" taste like a lot of places offer/charge an arm and a leg for. Hands down best oatmeal cookies I've ever had and I don't usually even like oatmeal cookies. Apple muffin was delicious. Vanilla cupcake was moist, but frosting had an interesting aftertaste. I don't usually like scones, but Humble Bee's was moist and I love that I could really taste the banana base in the blueberry banana scone which was bursting with fresh blueberries and a lovely hint of nutmeg. Owner/FOH person is a delight and provides exemplary customer service. Would love to be able to try a vegan version of her famous macaroons! read more

This ish is good. Like, where have you been all my life, good. Slap ya mama good. Brittany has an amazing vision for all things baked and watching her store grow and flourish makes me really proud to say she has this shop in Winston Salem. Her menu is constantly changing. I will often stalk her posts to see what creation she is working on this week. Her custom made cakes are beautiful. Like, you just don't see stuff like this in real life normally and she's busting them out left and right like it is no big deal. She offers several options for dietary restrictions and you would never know these things are "made special." I highly encourage you to go here and try one of everything and then write me a thank you letter. read more

This bakery is the best bakery in town. The owner is also the baker and sometimes FOH! Her spirit makes this a great experience every time I go in! My favorite items are any scones, cookies and of course the macarons! If you are visiting downtown this place is a must Also one of the best cakes I have ever eaten/seen! read more

Their baked goods are great, just heavily disappointed they never responded to me about cake inquiries for event.

Stopped in with my bff's just to try the macarons. We drove an hour just to try them and were not disappointed! Perfect flavor, texture and sweetness. Not overly sweet like others I've tried elsewhere. Macarons are a delicate balance and very difficult to achieve. These macarons will transport you to paradise! Wish I had bought more! read more

This place has the most delectable items. She intentionally uses various flavors and textures to create a masterpiece in your mouth. If you are in the mood for something unique to drink, coffees can be crafted with a variety of handmade syrups to choose. Also, there are options for different dietary needs. Note - this is not a $.79 cent donut shop, you will be paying for quality goods. Parking is usually available in front of the store, but there's plenty of other street parking in the block if the spots are taken. Cons: * there is one table outside to sit at, but otherwise this is a closet sized storefront, so you can't stay and chat with friends if the table is taken or if the weather is unbearable. * hours can be kooky, even before COVId. Check the social media (IG) before your go helps. read more

I truly cannot imagine a more pleasant experience than that of mine at the Humble Bee. I'm seldom able to pop in since I now live out of state- but any chance I'm able to, I always stop in to see a friendly face and stock up on the most delicious, made from scratch, treats. Brittany, the owner, is one of the kindest souls I've ever had the pleasure of coming across in Downtown Winston-Salem. She specializes in vegan and gluten free treats that are guaranteed to knock your socks off! Some of my favorites are her beautiful and delectable macaron (no one can top them- I promise!), the cinimon roll, and the cheddar/jalapeño muffin with Texas Pete and honey glaze. My mouth is watering just thinking about all of them! I rate The Humble Bee as a bakery 10/10 but the service is absolutely A++. Maybe some day I'll be able to post pics of my goodies before they make their way into my mouth!! read more

Do you like tasty things in your mouth? Go to Humble Bee Shoppe and let your tastebuds thank you!

I just so happened to park in front of this bakery as I was visiting a nearby restaurant. As I got in my car to leave, I decided to stop in for a treat. The young lady, think she may have been the owner, was baking in the back and came up front. She was very warm and courteous, offering to explain each item to me since the window tags were not yet up. I'm unsure if maybe all the items had not been baked yet but there was a smaller selection than I anticipated. This was forgiven as soon as I took the first bite of my treat. I ordered a brownie, lust brownie? I don't remember the exact name but it was muffin shaped and she explained that she rehydrated cranberries and placed those into the brownie which she described as "decadent". Y'all it was! Good grief! I crave chocolate quite a bit but it's hard to find a rich, decadent, chocolate treat to truly satisfy that craving. This was it. I hate to say this but I'm glad this bakery is 30 minutes away from me. Will certainly visit again though when I'm I'm town. read more

I customs ordered two dozen cupcakes for my sister and they came out wonderful. Everyone was impressed, even my friend who bakes as a hobby and that is saying a lot. The cupcakes were delicious and beautiful and Brittany was great to work with. Will be ordering again. read more

Not very impressed! I'm not vegan but I called a several months ago and asked about her ability to make Irish car bomb cupcakes and was given the third degree. I was told that I should choose another bakery and when asked where she would suggest she replied with "I don't have time to look it up for you" I was a little hurt because I was planning to surprise my best friend with them. I live in Statesville NC and planned to drive all the way out to get them from her from her past affiliation with a good friend of mine. She really hurt my feelings that day and I haven't bothered with her since. read more

Best bakery in town by far. Bonus that the owner is one of the kindest humans you'll ever meet.
