Bright, clean, and a diverse set of beautifully crafted goods. A bit pricey, but worth it when you find what's right for you. I personally don't find the cookies a favorite, but I totally recommend their cupcakes and creme brulees. Staff are helpful and efficient, and it's always great to come back.

My fiance and I were looking for some sweets and discovered this business through yelp. Its a small shop but offers lots of charm and flavor. I wanted to bring something to my family in Hercules so I ended up with 2 dozen mini cheese cakes, ube halaya, silvanas and casava flans. It all tasted really good, the family was happy and my fiance and I stuffed ourselves with the silvanas before it made it back to my family. All in all we'd definately come back when we're in the neighborhood.

First visit to their bakery this weekend and was impressed with the quality of their desserts and baked goods. The counter help was friendly and helpful. We brought home the delicious Silvanas, both types, cashew and salted hazelnut. 3 different cupcake flavors and we loved all of them, Pandan, Ube and Carmel. Perfect frosting that is not overly sweet. We also tried the Bibingka, Cassava flan and Lavender/Earl Grey cookies. We were very happy with everything! I look forward to trying some of their other items

When I first started going to Sweet Cravings a few years ago, I would go at least once a week. Their cupcakes and cookies were always fresh, moist and just down right delicious. They weren't overly sweet and the amount of icing on top was just right. I don't know what happened but over the past year, but their cupcakes taste stale, they are always cold, hard, and the icing is overly sweet and now they put icing in the middle of the cupcakes. Even when I let the cupcakes get to room temperature they still didn't taste fresh like before. And the cookies became greasy. As a result, I stopped going.

Bakery is located inside a shopping plaza, with plenty of parking. Cute decor and ambiance. Very friendly staff. Get the Halo Halo with Ube ice cream. You're welcome!

Oh Sweet Cravings, where have you been all my life! Seriously. We were in town for a family event and had lunch in the area, and my relatives highly recommended this place some after lunch sweets. I'm a huge fan of filipino desserts and this place had such a wonderful selection. They even had espasol which is one of my top favorites and a lot of places don't carry regularly. Let me just say.. it's one of the best versions I've had. I'm kicking myself for not getting more! Other standouts were the calamansi bites (an upgraded version of the lemon bar) and the coffee flan. So delicious.We also tried the sticky bibingka, ube halaya, salted hazelnut silvana, and all of these items were good as well. The staff was very friendly and the shop was very cute and clean. I almost forgot to mention they also have halo halo, turon and many other goodies. You can't go wrong with anything really. I hope to return sooner than later for that espasol.

Caramel cake is the bomb! Just the right amount if sweet...

- tasty pastries- lots of choicesOrdered the calamansi bar and the cheesecake bite. The cheesecake bite was so good and had a traditional cheesecake flavor. The calamansi bar tasted more lemony than calamansi but was still good! They have a great variety of deserts and ice cream. Gonna have to come back and try the halo halo for sure! Highly recommend!

When I'm craving some filipino desserts I stop by here for their casava and silvannas, but since it was warm Saturday I had to try their mais con yelo too. It was so good. I'll definitely be coming back for more.

Craving for halohalo? Go to Sweet Cravings for the best halohalo. I've also had the espasol, buko pandan, egg pie, and ordered their ube pandesal and calamansi bites for parties. They never disappoint and the staff is always helpful. The place is warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Sweet Cravings. It's my only go-to for my sweet cravings!

Ever since this place was suggested to me, I've made it a point to stop by and purchase some baked goods every time I have a reason to pass through Hercules since I'm not local. The calamansi bites are 100% my favorite, and I always have to reel myself in to buying no more than 5 or 6 at a time because I have no self-control. That's closely followed by their strawberry shortcake cookies. It's perfectly chewy, and even better after being left in the fridge without ever getting too hard or too dry, and it really has the perfect amount of sweetness without being too cloying.Their cupcakes are really good too, and I love how the frosting is also used as filling. Not sure why someone else claimed they were dry as I've never had that experience with their cupcakes. I'm also a big fan of crème brûlée, which I know is the most basic dessert of all time, but I most often find them served at sit-down restaurants as opposed to bakeries, which--?? It's the simplest thing ever, but I'm glad they have it as an offering.I tend to visit bakeries once and never again. I rarely have a reason to keep revisiting places when I live so close to SF where there's an abundance of different bakeries to try, so I think it's pretty telling in itself that I would not only go out of my way to stop by here but also to do so repeatedly.

I love love LOVE the Calamansi bites and the mini cheesecakes here! They're the must haves when you come here, if you like a taste of Filipino sweets with a sort of American twist. I also always get at least 6 of the chocolate chip cookies and calamansi cupcakes!

This is our go to place for desserts whenever we are craving something sweet or for family potlucks! The cupcakes/cakes are moist and sweet, the cookies are addicting, and their brownies are amazing! The Filipino desserts are authentic and we love the halo-halo!! But my all time fave are the matcha brownies!! Staff is always welcoming...glad we have this place to go!!
