“We worked with Sweetie Pie by Savie for our wedding cutting cake in July 2025. We loved our cake, it was exactly what we asked for! She was very easy to work with and we enjoyed many of the flavor options. We ended up going with a ginger spice cake with cream cheese frosting. We kept some cake frozen for our one year anniversary and it was still delicious when thawed and enjoyed now!“

“pastries are great and Korean iced coffee is one of my favorites. staff is friendly also. if there's one thing I would say that I don't necessarily like it would be the indoor space and seating. everything feels clustered and limited seats. tables are wobbly and not enough seating for family or students indoor. there are seating outside however, when it is extremely hot or cold those seats will not be functional. otherwise, overall great space and place“

“I just picked up my order of 2 dozen cookies decorated for a UGA graduation party. The cookies are absolutely gorgeous! I have no idea how she makes the cookies look so great. The cookies are delicious, too! They are not like those very thick, hard sugar cookies that you sometimes get with the beautiful icing. They are softer, but still stiff. Each cookie is individually wrapped and exactly what I wanted.“

Classic City Bakeries Bakery •
355 Oneta Street Ste 300D, Athens

“We ordered a Valentine's cookie cake, and it was the BEST I have had...and I am picky about my cookie cakes. 😉. It was a thicker cookie than you would get from a grocery store, and the taste was so much better. The frosting was incredibly delicious and didn't have any of the "fake" aftertaste you might get from a store bought cake with red icing. My girls also enjoyed the "bigger than normal" sprinkles on top! We definitely will order more!“

Chef Tim's use of certain spices makes Dondero's take on some dishes so different and so crave worthy. The people who work here are also just good folks--they deserve our patronage. Try em---you'll come back.“
