We got their monthly cookie of Oct (white chocolate caramel biscoff?) and it was...incredible. Best cookie I've had in my life!

We ordered this cake for our son’s birthday, and it was a huge disappointment. He and his friends said it was like eating a brick — hard and unpleasant. We expected something moist and delicious, but unfortunately, it was not.
Order: Cookies & Cream Cake (chocolate cake with Oreo buttercream filling) Size: Small – 5” round (serves 8)

Ordering was easy, great communication, the price was fair and delivery was on time! We ordered a birthday cake for our daughter who is staying at Ronald McDonald House of Charity while she is caring for her daughter in the NICU at Seattle Childrens Hospital. We asked if they wouldn't mind throwing in some extra goodies for the residents at Ronald McDonald House and they pulled through with a box of rice crispy treats! Now she has cake and rice crispy treats to share with everyone for her birthday! This company is the best! Much love, The Rosenau family

I ordered one of their signature, standard caramel truffle cakes but it arrived already bowing out and cracking on the sides. The inside was somewhat stale even after following the directions to warm up for at least 7 hours (received at 11am and ate at 8pm) on the counter in the box.
We're really disappointed because the cake was $83 and we were really excited when we opened the box and the buttercream smelled so amazing and delicious. I'm not sure what happened but I hope this was a one off issue for them. We tried letting it sit overnight and the stale texture did not change. I don't think I'd take the chance on them again for a special occasion cake again.

I ordered a heart shaped cake with vintage piping and it was perfect for my thirtieth birthday party! It was so pretty and everything I envisioned, and was delicious! Everyone loved it and it was the star of the show! I got funfetti with chocolate ganache. When I ordered the cake I requested to pick up in Totem Lake, but there was a mixup and I had to go pickup in Seattle. No big deal, and I got a free slice of their eggnog cake for the inconvenience and it was also delicious! The girls working there were so nice and apologetic for the mixup. I will be ordering again for my next event!

Very good cake! Ordered for my fiancés birthday. Very easy online ordering process. Pickup was quick and easy and the gal that helped me very friendly with how to defrost and store.
Cake itself was very good!! Got the sprinkle drip cake with vanilla cake and chocolate filling. Customizable writing, candles, etc if you’d like.
Will definitely be ordering from there again!

We hired the SweetSide to make our wedding cake. We ordered a two-tiered cake for 26 people, and were able to have each tier be a different flavor. The cake turned out absolutely beautiful; so many people were amazed by the quality of the sugar flowers, and honestly thought they were real flowers. The top flavor was coconut and apricot, and the bottom flavor was lemon and raspberry. We were so pleased with the final product! Thank you, Sweetside!

I hate to give this review. I ordered 2 cake slices from the window. The cakes looked amazing. The slices were huge for the $9-ish each slice. The cake was moist. The staff was kind and polite. Now for the 2 stars. The cake was flavorless and the frosting was gross (consistency and flavor). The chai cake slice was inedible. It was simply shortening in flavor and texture. The cookie cake had a different frosting that was exactly like the pre-made buckets of frosting that Safeway bakery uses (overly sweet, no real flavor added, preservative aftertaste). I really wish I liked this bakery. It’s convenient. The staff and vibe seemed right, but those recipes are indeed off as others have shared. I have hope they will grow, change and improve. I’ll be back to try again in likely a year or so. I’ll update my review not if, but when it changes. Supporting this neighborhood business is importance to me.
I love love love their walk-up window Thursday-Saturday. The cake slices are huge (5 1/2" tall by 5 1/2" diameter), and the flavors are great. Almond with passionfruit filling was my favorites so far. Fresh, super moist, and bold flavors.

Stopped by on a Tuesday to try the cake or macarons. Turns out they only sell cake slices Thursday-Sunday. It’d be nice if they had a small selection of baked goods during the week. Don’t want to arrange a whole tasting but curious to try!

We live near The SweetSide and after passing by so many times decided to get our wedding cake from here. The entire process was great, from the take home tasting to ordering and pickup. Kara and the team worked with our wedding planner to make sure the cake would survive the summer heat and arrived in great condition. The cake and Macarons (especially the lemon ones!) were a huge hit with all our guests. We’ll be using The SweetSide again next time we need a cake for a special occasion.

The cake was beautiful, but the frosting just tasted like shortening and the cake was very dry. 2 stars because I ordered some really tasty cookies from here once for teachers appreciation, and I will give them that the cake was beautiful

I found The Sweet Side through a Google Search, and was in need of some killer character cakes for a project. Not only did they deliver the most adorable, detailed, fun designs, but they could not have been more accommodating. Very quick to respond to my sometimes annoying requests, and could not have been kinder. Everyone involved in our project was thrilled with what The Sweet Side team came up with, and I'd highly recommend them for all of your cake needs. I'd happily order from them again and again and again!!
