Sweet Somethings

My boyfriend got me a star wars came for my birthday and it was breath taking. I literally saw a picture on google and thought it was a cool idea and sweet somethings brought it to life! Thank you so much for the wonderful cake. It was so impressive and not everyone can say they had a death star for their birthday!

Best cupcakes in Delaware (at least in the New Castle county). The cupcakes are perfectly moist and the ratio of cake to icing is perfect. All the flavors I’ve tried are great but my favorite is the Dulce de Leche. They’re so fantastic that I’ve bought them to give as gifts.

Have been in several times and always friendly service even when busy. The cupcakes are amazing. I have not had the cakes yet, but they do go through a lot of cakes. I brought a dozen different cupcakes to work and they were a big hit.

We got a pumpkin pie and a chocolate hazelnut bomb. Both of them were absolutely delicious. Would go back for any kind of desserts there

Ordered a strawberry shortcake for a surprise babyshower. The people that work there are very pleasant to talk on the phone with and the cake was a hit. Everyone loved it and some had seconds. It was three layers of delicious light cake and 2 layers of wonderful not overly sweet strawberries and cream. I will definitely order from there again, and the bakery is open and very clean looking as well. Just watch your step when coming and going, lol.

We ordered the cake for my baby shower here. The nursery is themed with woodland creatures so we requested a birch tree textured cake featuring a 3D fox. The cake surpassed what we could’ve even imagined. I believe the pastry artist’s name is Candace. She did an absolutely fantastic job, and everyone at the shower was beyond impressed. Also, I should mention that we ordered a vanilla cake with with a raspberry filling and it tasted absolutely amazing!

AMAZING! We used this bakery for our wedding cake and bridal shower.
The bridal shower cupcakes were so moist and full of flavor! So tasty!
I posted a picture of our wedding cake which was 4 tiers. It had three different flavors and fillings for the three larger tiers. The tasting was great. Large sample cakes of each flavor that we got to take home with us!
We had the white chocolate raspberry cake, red velvet with cream cheese filling, and a custom cake flavor of chocolate cake with a blueberry mousse. AMAZING!
The cake was sweet and moist and held up well in the fridge for left overs. I will use this bakery in the future. Lee was great to work with and open to our ideas.

I had been on the hunt for a moist, not too sweet lemon cupcake and finally found it at Sweet Somethings. I’m not typically into sweets and desserts, but this bakery has me coming back again and again for their amazingly delicious cupcakes! My favorites include: key lime pie, carrot cake, and chocolate. I’ve not had a cake, but if I needed one for a special occasion, I would definitely get it here.

Desserts that Rival the Best of NYC
I used to work in Manhattan — loved the work, at the time, but it’s great and absolutely wonderful/​my preference to be home and working here in Delaware.
Having said that, one of the things that I missed most about Manhattan was the incredible desserts in places like Washington Square.
The great news is that I don’t have to go to NYC to get incredible desserts anymore — I’ve found them here at Delaware’s Sweet Somethings!
Sweet Somethings has incredibly wonderful desserts!
Funny thing, each time I go to Sweet Somethings, I always buy more than I intended — I can never decide which of their delectable delights I should buy and take home — and so I always buy multiples! I am always delighted with each of my choices!
My favorites, so far, are the Carmel Apple Cheesecake and the Chocolate with Raspberry and White Chocolate mousse — the fresh raspberries are the perfect accent.
And, the White Chocolate Bombe. Wow! It’s incredible as well.

My in laws bought my birthday cake from and it was absolutely fabulous. Rich but not nauseatingly sweet.

I just went to Sweet Somethings but forgot to «check-​in.» I picked up 2 dozen cupcakes for a field hockey party. The bakery is clean, there is off-​street parking and the service is incredibly customer-​focused. I really love the open kitchen floor plan — I watched the bakers busily baking and frosting various items. It was pretty cool. Oh. The desserts. Right. The cupcakes are moist and delicious! They are the best I’ve had (I love Georgetown cupcakes but Sweet Somethings’ are better) and certainly worth $ 3.50 each.
Bonus: a worker offered to carry my cupcakes to my car for me.

I ordered coconut cream cake for a birthday party. The cake was the hit of the night, and everyone had positive comments regarding the quality and taste. I was very pleased with the work. I highly recommend to anyone in Delaware!

Found them on Unilocal when I searched best key lime pie. I wanted to get one for Father’s Day since it is hubby’s fave dessert. I called ahead to make sure they had one in stock, picked it up the same day along with a few cupcakes. The key lime pie got two thumbs up from hubby. Definitely made with real key lime and no artificial green coloring. Outside of pie coated with toasted shredded coconuts. The cupcakes (chocolate ganache, raspberry with white chocolate cream) were amazing. Intensely rich, moist and dense. I want to try the different cakes next. This might just be my go to bakery from now on!

The cakes made for my sons college graduation party were AMAZING!!! My son is also leaving for the navy. We had two cakes… A chocolate carmel sea salt and a lemon with coconut! Both were outstanding!!! We had over 100 people and the two 20 inch cakes were plenty. (We did not have any leftovers;). The designer made the UD logo to place on the first cake and a Navel logo for the lemon! It was perfection!!! They were editable and everyone raved at their quality! Please use them for your next party (as we will)!

Cake was delicious! I am definitely going to order from them again. I also recommended the bakery to my friends.

Have since tried more items from this bakery and wanted to share my experience…
Placed a large order for my niece’s graduation party and it was another great success! Of course I managed to over-​ordered but no worries, nothing went to waste! Picked up the order on Saturday for the Sunday party. Here was my order:
24 yellow cupcakes topped with buttercream ~ several times during the party I saw people sharing these cupcakes since they were so rich and decadent. A favorite with the older guests since they were classic cupcake flavor (nothing fancy-​shmancy as my mother would say!) I took some leftovers to work and folks were raving how good they were on Wednesday (3 days later even!).
24 yellow cupcakes with chocolate mousse filling topped with buttercream ~ a true show-​stopper. Continued to get compliments throughout the entire party and more so once my co-​workers tasted them. The filling makes for a heavy and delicious treat of chocolate goodness. Again, these were still being eaten and complimented later that week. The staying power of these are amazing! Just refrigerate and take out about an hour before consumption.
(1) large key lime tart — the entire tart was gone within the first hour of the party. Glad I saved my brother-​in-​law a slice beforehand and hid it well! Love the citrus flavor and the display looked great with this beautiful tart presentation.
(1) dozen peanut butter cookies — did not get to try.
(2) dozen raspberry sable cookies — A bit disappointed with these little lovelys. I think they would have been better eaten the day of as the dusting of what I believe to be confectioners sugar made them softer then I believe they should have been by the time I served them the next day. Made the entire cookie not able to stand on their own — folded in half as soon as you picked one up. Again, a labor-​intensive cookie to make with the cutting, baking, assembling aspect of it. Left me wanting more…
(1) ¾ sheet brownies ~ didn’t realize how large ¾ sheet was — I cut the sheet in ½ and was able to freeze the other half for another event the following week. They are a fudgy brownie with a layer of fugdy-​type frosting with mini-​chocolate chips. Beautiful to look at and wonderful to eat.

Stopped in on a whim. The man behind the counter was very welcoming and helpful. Hubs and I decided on the strawberry shortcake for him and chocolate silk for me. We were told to let them sit for a little while to get to room temp before enjoying them. Both cakes were VERY good, moist and flavorful. They also have a filling, which I am usually not a fan of, but it was sooooo good. I would venture to say that this may very well be the best chocolate cupcake I have ever had! I can’t wait to go back. Cupcakes run $ 3.50 ea.

Sweet Something’s just did my baby shower cake it was marble with mousse it was by far the best cake I’ve ever had and got tons of compliments on it!!!

I bought cupcakes for my mother-in-law’s birthday not knowing that her neighbor had brought over homemade cupcakes. When she told me about them, I took one look at them and then turned to her and said, «You’re gonna like these much more because these are ‘uptown cupcakes’ that I bought at a fantastic bakery in Wilmington.» I opened the box to show her the variety of decadent delights inside and she soon forgot the neighbors (those cupcakes were appreciated and eaten later). The picture (I’ve added the photo to the bakery’ and the smile on her face says it all! I bought these adorable smiley face candles to top them which were right at the counter when checking out at the bakery. The cupcakes were a big hit and absolutely delicious!!!

I have tried many cakes from Sweet Something’s at various restaurants in Delaware and Pennsylvania and each one was amazingly good! The cakes themselves are very flavorful and scrumptious. I adore their lemon coconut cake the most, but other flavors are great too.
Everyone else I know who has tried cakes from this bakery say they’re some of the best they’ve ever tried. I’ve never actually gone to the actual shop before, so I’m unable to comment on the shop, employees, or parking. I can say that if any of the restaurants that I go to stopped selling Sweet Something’s desserts, I would take a trip to the bakery itself. I highly recommend!
