Bittersweet Confections

This place is a true gem. It is located conveniently in the Warehouse District, which is walking distance to the central business district or even the French quarter if you're motivated. Very safe area.The breakfast is absolutely amazing! I was first introduced to this place through a Yelp Event, and knew I had to come back. I got the classic breakfast with toast, sausage, and Gouda cheese in my grits. The toast is made in house and it's AMAZING. Get the Gouda cheese in the grits, TRUST ME! Then I got the Nutella muffin and omg it was absolutely perfect! It was well balanced and not overly sweet. Allow them to warm it because it makes the outside nice and crispy and the perfect muffin, honestly. You order your meal and pay for it right away, and if you dine in, they will call your name to get the meal. I love this style of service because it makes it quick if you need to be in and out. The inside is nice and spacious and perfect for groups, or if you are by yourself they have barstool window seating or some barstool seats at the counter. The inside is versatile enough to accommodate anyone honestly. They also have 2-3 tables outside if you want to dine outside. I met Avery, who is the operations manager for this business. This is her family's business and that absolutely warms my heart. I love supporting local businesses! This place is great all around and will definitely look to buy a cake from here!

This spacious bakery has friendly staff, plenty of seating and an assortment of yummy treats! We tried the chocolate salted caramel, and confetti cupcakes, and a chocolate eclair. Wasn't terrible, but the cupcakes were a bit dry and did not taste freshly made. I would return to try one of their mini king cakes and maybe purchase a few items from their Mardi Gras apparel collection.

I'm my husband always gets my bittersweet chocolate cake for my birthday. So I gave the chocolate cream cheese king cake a try. nothing at all traditional but Incredibly delicious.

Visited one Friday during lunch for a Yelp event 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.

A-MAZ-ING cafe menu! Just what I was looking for in terms of healthy, light but filling lunch. Their BLT with avocado spread and goat cheese was superb! Yum is all I can really say.

I stopped by Bittersweet Confections around 8:30am on a Friday after taking a yoga class next door. It's a quite spacious cafe with impressive displays of model wedding cakes, glass cases of pastries and little French style cakes and tarts, ice cream freezer, etc. Although it's a sweet shop, I saw that they also made savory food, which was exactly what I was looking for. They also made cocktails and coffee drinks. Customer service was great. The server was friendly and simply had a positive attitude. I ordered the breakfast wrap with vegetables. My only critique was I would've wanted more vegetables and less of the potatoes. Other than that, the breakfast wrap was solid. It was flavorful, well seasoned, and satisfying. I also got the strawberry mousse dome to save for later. It had an amazing strawberry flavor, but it was too sweet for me.

The barista serves high-quality coffee and he's been there for years. The owner started this business from scratch around 20 years ago, and she does a phenomenal job, delivering all her cakes personally. The staff are always cheerful andfriendly. The breakfast items are tasty and healthy. And there is ice cream made by creole creamery and the chocolates are divine. And they have free wifi!

Great service, great food, great atmosphere! I will be back for sure. The cupcake was a little dry but tasted great. The breakfast food was on point!

The cheesecake crème brûlée is to die for. The strawberry moose was also outstanding! You can't go wrong with their treats!

The crème brûlée cheesecake is to die for. We came for the confections and they did not disappoint. Exceptional food, and the waiters were nice. It is a little confusing getting here, since they share and entrance with NFP, but simple enough.
