    We came back to this bakery again after using them for my daughter's first birthday cupcakes and it was still amazing! This time we got a gluten free cake with dye free sprinkles and it was exactly what I wanted, and delicious!! Came out exactly like the inspo photo I sent in. We love using this bakery! they are always so nice when we go to pickup as well, and have delicious desserts in display in the store for purchase!

    Birthday cake

    I can't say enough good things about this bakery! I ordered a white chocolate raspberry cake for my daughter's 16th birthday celebration. The cake was absolutely beautiful! She wanted swans on top and Lori made them herself!! The cake itself was the moistest cake I've ever had. It was just pure joy!! We also bought some macarons for the party and the kids said they were better than Amelie's! The bakery itself is so charming and everything in the cases looked HEAVENLY!! We can't wait to go back!

    Home made almond cake with raspberry filling and buttercream frosting. The theme was "We can Bearly Wait" no gender revealed.

    Amazing! Fantastic! Delicious!!! We had a family member sprinkle shower, and the cake was made by the Sweet Life. It was an almond cake with a raspberry filling and a buttercream frosty. Cannot say enough about it. It has to be the best cake Ever made by any bakery and we've had a lot of cakes made. We will definitely be a return customer! Thank you Lori

    The birthday cake.

    They did it again! They created an over-the-top birthday cake that was a work of art and tastes as good as it looks. We also got a dozen boozy cupcakes for the birthday party. You only turn 21 once in your life. We wanted a cake that celebrated this "rite of passage" in a big way. Lori created us a cake that is 100% edible and looks exactly like a Patron Tequila bottle. The base is made of fondant that looks like butcher block complete with salt and real lime slices! The body of the cake is red velvet. The outside is silver fondant. The inside of the bottle neck is rice crispy treat. It looks so realistic! We ordered boozy cupcakes to incorporate a real shot of tequila. They are Key Lime cupcakes with a Key Lime cream cheese frosting. Each cupcake comes with a liquor shot that you squeeze into the cupcake right before you eat it! Both of these creations are elevated works of art. Thanks for working so hard to make our event special.

    I can't say enough good things about Lori. Lori recently made a Groom's welding machine cake for my son. My son drew a picture of exactly what he wanted and Lori made it come to life in the form of a cake. It was AMAZING AND DELICIOUS!! When I went to pick up the cake I also purchased three different cupcakes from the display case. They were heavenly!! I can't thank Lori enough!!! I HIGHLY recommend THE SWEET LIFE BAKERY!!

    Holy Moly I had no idea this cute little bakery was here. The owner is the sweetest. She was very kind and helped us promptly. The cupcake flavors change every week and the other desserts fluctuate. She has cinnamon rolls the size of your face and all kinds of cakes and cookies. I am so excited to have these fresh baked good so close to our house. I'll definitely be dropping by here again in the near future!

    Great Response time! Awesome design just how I showed Lori. So glad I found this Gem!

    Triple Berry Pie!

    Thank you sooooo much to Lori at The Sweet Life. She really came through for me in a crunch time situation. The Sweet Life will be my go to from now on!

    She made beautiful delicious cupcakes for a baby shower! Three different flavors and she did a different swirl on each flavor - so unique!

    It's Almost Perfect…read more I've been wanting to try The Donut House's fully customized donuts for ages, but it seems like every time I drive by, they're closed. Apparently, they often sell out and close early. So I was thrilled to finally get my hands on them today after so much anticipation. The donuts themselves are fantastic: huge, fresh, and incredibly fluffy with a perfect, not-too-sweet texture. However the fillings didn't quite hit the mark for me. They all were too tangy and heavy. The chocolate cream filling was sour, and the raspberry tasted rather stodgy, nothing like the light, sweet jelly from Krispy Kreme. At $14.99 for a half-dozen, there are fillings galore to choose from, which is great, but it might take some experimenting to find the right one for me. They also offer coffee, bubble teas, and a "wall of goodies" that looks intriguing On the bright side, the service was terrific! The young lady behind the counter made sure my sister and I had a very positive experience, and the place was spotlessly clean. Even though they were getting ready to close, we never felt rushed.. Despite the filling disappointments, I'd definitely go back to try some different options - I'd love to find my perfect custom donut, and how lucky I am to have found a place that may facilitate that, right here in Kannapolis.

I'm writing this review because we recently learned that a gift certificate we gifted as a holiday present expired. I wasn't aware it had a time limit, if I had know I would've thought twice about gifting from this establishment. It's embarrassing for us to give a gift that was ultimately unusable. I understand running a small business is challenging, but I wish I would've at least been made aware of their gift card policy in advance.

No greeting, the lady behind the counter just walked up and started pulling desserts out as we were talking amongst ourselves and trying to decide on them, so felt a little rushed. Also, I guess they save the good boxed packaging for customers they like, so if you are offered styrofoam then that means you didn't make the list lol. The way we were stared at the entire time and rudely handed the receipt to sign after our purchase made the entire visit an uncomfortable vibe and as if we were being a bother. And just for future reference, yes please offer your customers a bag to carry multiple items they purchased, thanks. If you decide to stop in though, the white chocolate mousse was pretty tasty lol (that's what the one star is for, otherwise, it would be a zero for me).
