I wish I had a photo to share a the BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING tasting cakes I purchased for Labor Day, however the family devoured them. The eggnog pound cake was was divine - they made their own HOMEMADE eggnog (its not in season). The chocolate on chocolate pound was SUPER moist and DELICIOUS!S/N - they also made my daddy a hummingbird cake that was INCREDIBLE! It was the perfect addition to his Fathers Day love basket.I would & have, recommended Sweet Sensations to any/everyone that ask for REAL HOMEMADE cakes. You cant go wrong with any of these DELIGHTFUL treats.

The young lady was very friendly and pleasant. Unfortunately, I believe $15-20 for a slice of pound cake is a bit much. I am sure it is very good but I am not willing to pay that for a SLICE.Also, the place needs some up keeping. No air conditioning and it has a peculiar smell. They were having a hard time finding the prices themselves- it would be good to advertise prices. I really wanted to like the place and we still made a purchase to support but we will not be going there again.

This is an EXTREMELY TERRIBLE Business! NO INTEGRITY!I was excited to support this small business initially finding it online.After reviewing the website, I called and made my order to pickup the next day. The manager/owner confirmed that I can come pickup the cake Sat. between 10-11am. In fact, the manager/owner said that I could come earlier because they would be there at 7 am but the store doesn’t open until 10-2pm. I reaffirmed to her to expect me between 10-11.The next day I get to the store at 10:15. The place is a old house that looks very sketchy and unkept. No one was at the store. How are you closed during operating hours? I called the store and left a VM. Waited and eventually I had to leave. I literally believed that it was a scam and called my bank to close credit card. Why? The manager told me that since it’s a 24 or less turnaround order that I need to pay upfront over the phone. Keep in mind I live on the other side of town and ordered the cake for an event. My morning is now consumed with flagging account for Fraud and trying to find a cake replacement. The manager/owner called me an hour later leaving a cold VM saying we’re here now.NO APOLOGY or since of remorse. Later I received another VM saying “ I am calling AGAIN, we have your cake.” Third VM was an offer to bring to cake to me if I call before they close in 30 mins. and a disingenuous sorry for being late followed up with an excuse. At this point I found another vendor and was no longer interested. Especially after seeing how nasty the shop looked in person. She called on Monday offering me this cake and I shared my grievance and asked for a refund. She refused to give me a refund and showed no remorse. I will NEVER support your janky business! You are WRONG and have no INTEGRITY! People please do not risk going here!!!

Love this place. Looks are deceiving! Ice cream was tasty. Their pound cake is the old fashioned bundt kind and its AWESOME. And they have any kind of candy, fudge, and chocolate pieces you could possibly want. Some of their items are a tad pricey, but its worth it! Highly recommend this place if you want to soothe your sweet tooth :)
