My husband buys my birthday cake here every year and this year we had the chance to buy one for his mother's 85th birthday. It was her first birthday cake ever in her life (she is from the Philippines) she was so amazed by it she did not want to cut in to it. THANK YOU BITTERSWEET FOR MAKING GREAT MEMORIES!

Their hot chocolate is magical. Chocolate almond croissant is superb. Anything that you purchase here will not disappoint.

Food was good. Perfect lunch portion. Great to get out of the snow for a bit. Service was quick and polite.

Bittersweet made a custom birthday cake for my Mom's 60th birthday celebration. It. Was. INCREDIBLE! They brought my vision to life in the most beautiful, whimsical way. The cake not only embodied my mom's personality in every detail - but the cake, filling and icing were absolutely incredible! Delicious and so refined. Everyone loved it. Thank you, Bittersweet, for making her birthday so memorable!

Get ready for the easiest and hardest decision in your wedding planning.  Choosing Bittersweet is the easy decision.  Nancy, who was our host, was great to work with.  Our experience started with the tasting.  We had the idea of the cake we wanted in our mind when we arrived.  But as we waited the samples to arrive, we came across a little book of cakes in our table.  The variety of the cakes that Bittersweet created is astonishing.  As we browsed, we came across the city skyline band that we incorporated into our design.  When we showed the design we wanted to Nancy, she did not hesitate to confirm that they could handle it.
When Nancy came out with the samples, our hardest decision has begun.  So many different flavors cooked with precision.  The best part is, you keep the samples!  
Although we did not see the finished cake until the wedding day, the final result was one of the most beautiful part of our wedding.  Bittersweet created our wedding cake as good as we hoped and everyone at our wedding enjoyed the flavors.  We can't wait to go back next year to get the complementary 1 year anniversary cake.
