Bittersweet Confections

I’m from out of town and wanted to grab some cake or cupcakes for my husbands birthday. Some friends and I walked over to Bittersweet Confections and took in all the delish smells ! The place was clean, they offered water & everything looked amazing. We had the best service and everyone we interacted with was so kind!! These cupcakes we had were AMAZING!!! My friends got a scone and a brownie and they said they were so good as well! I love that they had some local jewelry, books, and other cute things as well. I picked up a child’s book for my daughter, she will love it! They also had cake toppers and candles with a match book, which is a great touch!

I highly recommend checking this place out. Thank you so much!!

Ordered Bittersweet Confections signature bittersweet cake for our wedding and it did not disappoint! We were warned that it was very rich. Well, it was rich, and decadent, and very moist. All our guests couldn’t stop raving about how wonderful the cake was. They were amazed at how wonderful it was. They enjoyed the other tarts and desserts they provided, but, the bittersweet cake was the show stopper. Thanks Bittesweet Confections for making our wedding cake and desserts!

I purchased some German chocolate cupcakes for my husband’s birthday yesterday. He was very impressed with the taste and is a harsh critic. The staff worked with me on ordering at the last minute and pick up. They were very accommodating and flexible. I also enjoyed the lavender violet lemonade Arnold Palmer I ordered while I waited for the cupcakes to be retrieved. Thanks so much! I will definitely purchase items again in the future.

Love to drop by here on my way to the office for a coffee and a pastry. The team is always so welcoming.

Loved the dried noodle stir stick. Great idea.

We hoped to get our wedding cake and work with Bittersweet. I think the service is great, but the cake is so overpriced. If its worth it to the bride and groom, then so be it, but I can’t fathom spending ALOT of money for a cake only to realize not everyone’s gonna eat. This place charges for every little thing from cake tasting, paying for your own coffee while cake tasting, cake stand, etc. I understand it’s a local business in New Orleans that is respected , but where is the incentive in all of these items that we have to pay? Maybe don’t charge for cake tasting or if you do and the bride does decide to go with you, then give us a discount? Overpriced in general.

Such a cute place!! Had Avocado toast and it was amazing. Highly recommend this place.

This is what perfection is all about. We invited Bittersweet Confections to be our gift to our clients. Bittersweet make 17 King Cakes for us. They were Gorgeous and Delicious.

HUGE shout out to Vanessa and Cheryl. Vanessa's fast responses even during Mardi Gras week, set her above all the companies I reached out to. Then Cheryl (owner) sealed the deal by helping answering questions and concerns. Great comradery you two!!!

Perfect mimosa experience! Their Bloody Mary is also very good and fully loaded. The staff was extremely helpful and kind!

Had adorable experience visiting Bittersweet Confections during my vacation trip to NOLA. I read great reviews and happen to walk down on Christmas Eve to get a cake for my wife’s birthday. The experience and satisfaction exceeded my expectations and couldn’t thank enough for the wonderful gesture from the time I greeted and taking care of my need in offering candle and matches. Couldn’t be more merrier during the Christmas season. The store was so well organized and esthetic.

I love the Yelp events where you have week to take part. Visited one Friday during lunch and enjoyed the Classic Breakfast with eggs, bacon, potatoes and a biscuit. The plate did not disappoint as I sat and enjoy my breakfast while finishing up some last minute work. I purchased some freshly squeezed satsuma juice and two petit fours to take along with my complimentary cupcake. Let me just say, those petit fours were the best from a bakery I have ever had. I am not a sweets fan, but these had just the right amount of sweetness, they were moist and I loved the size of them. This is a great spot to come grab lunch and finish up some work, or catch up with friends. There is plenty seating inside, as well as some seating outside. Located downtown, there is only street parking, but if you are in the area, stop in for a sweet treat.

10/10 recommend this place! Their cupcakes are delicious and the staff is so friendly. I accidentally ordered for the wrong day and they went out of their way to help fill my order anyways. We will definitely be returning here next time we’re in NOLA!

Also, the iced chai was amazing!
