Sweet Pearl Bakery

I always drive bye sweet pearl bakery so I decided to drive up and inquire about a custom cake for my sons 6th birthday. I asked her if she could make a Lego cake and from the start she sounding confident in the design. After talking details she told me to message her the photo and details we talked about. The email she gave me didn't work so I messaged her through Facebook. Her response time was not great- that should have been the first red flag indicator. Finally was able to finalize all the details. She seemed confident in replicating it. I was excited, this being my first time ordering a fun design custom cake. Day of birthday - my husband goes to pick up the cake. It looks nothing like the photo I gave her. I don't think I would have minded it being a little different if I felt like she put more effort into it. Honestly I feel I could have decorated this cake better. I was hoping the taste of the cake would redeem it. But unfortunately it was dry and tasted like she baked it a couple days prior. Really disappointed. I don't usually like to spend $75 (plus tax) on cakes. This being the reason I'm not a happy customer. I don't recommend her for custom cakes.

I drove over to Nichole's coffee stand/bakery about a week before my husband's birthday to order a little over a dozen cupcakes. She had so many flavors to pick from and I ended up going with German Chocolate Cake and Peanut Butter Cup. Our party was on Sunday and since Sweet Pearl Bakery is closed Sunday, Nichole said she would make the cupcakes fresh late on Saturday so they would still be fresh and delicious for the party. I arrived Saturday at 5pm and she gave me simple instructions to keep the cupcakes fresh overnight. She even threw in an extra cupcake for free! Everyone absolutely loved both flavors and my husband has now decided he would like the German Chocolate cupcakes or cake every year for his birthday! Great customer service, great directions to store the cupcakes and DELICIOUS cupcakes. Happy to support this local business. We will definitely be back. Thank you Nichole!

Cute place, good service, great cupcakes! The person behind the counter was very nice to my son and I, the cupcakes were yum, yum, yummeroo :)

I luckily found this place right before they closed, and I am so glad I did find this place because it made my birthday dessert spectacular!At first, finding this place was a slight struggle, but once did find it, you probably wouldn't expect them to sell desserts because they look like a cute little coffee shop. Even though it was almost closing time, there were still a decent amount of desserts to choose from all the way from cookies, brownies, and their delicious cupcakes! The lady behind the counter was extremely sweet and nice, and seemed like she really appreciated us being there, even though they were about to close. Plus, it was pretty cool that our birthdays were within a week of each other's. She also gave me a little candle since it was my birthday!Now, the cupcakes really impressed me. They were above my initial expectations! One of the cupcakes was vanilla, with a vanilla buttercream, topped with festive and cute sprinkles. This cupcake was super airy and fluffy, but this was probably my least favorite because I am not a vanilla person, but the clams itself, not regarding the flavor was very good. Next, there was a chocolate cupcakes with vanilla and strawberry buttercream, topped with a cherry. This cupcake was probably my favorite, aesthetically speaking, because it was the most colorful, and reminded me of an ice cream sundae. I really wish there was more of that strawberry buttercream because it was just so delicious, and had such a vibrant strawberry flavoring. It tasted exactly like a strawberry pocky stick! Again, the vanilla buttercream on this cupcake was really good as well. I do have to add though, that on every cupcake, the frosting was very very dry, but the cake part on all of them were still fluffy and soft. I'm judging them all off of the flavor however.The last two cupcakes are a snickerdoodle cupcake with vanilla buttercream, topped with a small snickerdoodle cookie, and a dark chocolate cupcake with vanilla buttercream, topped with littke chocolate chips. These two were both my favorite ones of the night, but I can't decide which one is better. I also have to add that I'm not 100% sure if every cupcake had vanilla buttercream, but that is just what I think it is. Anyways, I love the snickerdoodle cupcake because, well... every single component tasted just like a snickerdoodle! The cake part tasted just like a snickerdoodle, and I was actually expecting it to be like a vanilla flavor, but it was a delicious snickerdoodle flavor which was very airy, soft, and fluffy. The buttercream was also creamy and slightly tasted like snickerdoodle. The cookie on top was a perfect addition, and added another element with the soft, chewy, and crunchy texture of the snickerdoodle cookie.Finally, the chocolate cupcake, probably my favorite one because I love chocolate! This one was definetly the most dense cupcake, but I was surprised by how rich the cupcake was! It was so delicious and tasty, and I would say it was luscious! Overall, every cupcake was very solid, and exceeded expectations. I am so glad I found this place, because I will definetly come back for more, and it is always nice to support a small local buisness!

This was already one of my favorite bakeries because of the amazing cinnamon rolls and the baker (Nichole, I think) is so kind! I stopped by a couple weeks ago with my three-year-old to order a cake for her birthday. My daughter wanted a strawberry cake with strawberry filling and strawberry frosting, and Nichole helped us pick out the design. It was such a fun and special outing for my daughter. We picked up the cake this weekend, and not only was it beautiful, but it was SO incredibly delicious! My favorite part was the strawberry buttercream frosting -- I don't think it's easy to get buttercream to taste like fresh strawberries, but this really did! Thank you so much for the delicious cake and for helping make it an extra awesome birthday!

It bothers me to leave a negative review during these hard times for small businesses, but I've had to chase this business down to try to give them business to no avail. It is my son's 2nd birthday and we wanted to place a cupcake order through a local baker instead of a chain establishment. I reached out by phone and email a week in advance of our family outdoor gathering. After a few days I received an email back with flavor options. I replied immediately with my choices and affirmation to proceed with order, only to have no reply back, at all. I told her when I needed them and she never mentioned it wouldn't be able to get done, just nothing. I waited, expecting to hear back from her, but then had to scramble to make other plans bc most places have an order deadline. This same exact scenario also happened to me last year with a small birthday cake and it had slipped my mind. I would say, don't waste your time trying to place an order and this place must just be an espresso stand? I'm pretty confused as I still haven't heard any follow up even knowing the event date has passed. Horrible way to run a business that neighbors try to support.

These cupcakes are BOMB! Support your local business and enjoy some delicious treats.

My favorite place for cinnamon rolls and coffee! The chocolate chip cookies are delicious as well.The owner, Nicole, is a lovely young woman.

Bought cupcakes, they looked pretty. Chocolate cupcakes: the cake was ok , on the drier side, not a lot of chocolate flavor. The icing was ok, nothing special. Disappointed. Was hoping they would taste better, will keep looking for a better taste.

Sweet Pearl Cinnamon Rolls are much better than the competition. I've tried in cinnamon rolls at several Edmonds stores, a popular LFP bakery, and two bakeries in north Seattle. By comparison Sweet Pearl cinnamon rolls are moist, just the right amount of Cinnamon, and not too sweet. Try one! I'm sure that you will like it.Rick L
