BITTERSWEET CONFECTIONS REVIEWS
Bittersweet did almond and carrot cupcakes for our October wedding, and they were AMAZING. We opted to go without a traditional cake, but we were not disappointed. The display was beautiful, and the guests are still raving about how delicious the cupcakes were. It was also a very quick and easy process from picking what we wanted to finalizing the order. Would absolutely recommend for any event!
I knew I needed to try King Cake while in New Orleans during the season. Bittersweet Confections was in walking distance from the hotel so I decided to go here. The people were really nice and I was glad the had "mini" sized options because I was able to get two flavors. The mini is almost a 12" diameter but I didn't look closely at the regular size.
Bittersweet Confections baked a wedding cake, groom cake and birthday cake for my daughter’s wedding celebration. We were from out of town but Bittersweet Confections was so easy to work with and handled everything in a professional and timely manner. The cakes were beautiful and delicious too! The king cake grooms cake was the best ever!

SWISS CONFECTIONERY REVIEWS
What a delicious place. You can watch them decorate beautiful cakes through a big window. Everyone is so friendly. We got some samples and did we hit the jackpot! Everything was SO fresh and SO flavorful I couldn't pick a fave. I"ll have to have all my cakes from here so that over the years I can - MAYBE - have a favorite. LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
If you have an occasion in New Orleans that calls for a cake, such as a wedding, there is no better place to get it than Swiss Confectionery. They made our wedding cake in 1994. They have made our amazing anniversary cake almost every year since. They taste great and look fabulous. Their “new” location on Orleans Ave. is very convenient with parking right outside. I strongly recommend for all your cake needs.
I contacted Swiss Confectionery because of a family recommendation. I ordered a birthday cake for my wife's birthday. Both me and my wife were overjoyed with the outcome. The small cake was perfect and reasonably priced. The cake was absolutely delicious.

THE CUPCAKE COLLECTION REVIEWS
My family pulled together and put on a baby shower for me based off the description I provided them (Sweet as Can be). I saw a naked cake on Pinterest and it was gorgeous so I knew that was what I wanted. My husband and best friend sent the photo to cupcake collection and they delivered! The cake was absolutely beautiful and taste amazing. I cannot say thank you enough for making my vision come true.
I ordered a custom cake as a surprise for my partner's birthday. We are from NYC and were celebrating in New Orleans. Ordering over the phone was very easy. They delivered the cake to our hotel and it was exactly what I ordered and tasted delicious. Janay took my order and called to let me know that the cake had been delivered and would be in our room. Thanks for the great service.
We visited here on Wednesday 11th January on my birthday and had such a wonderful experience with the lovely worker there that day. She recommended the sweet potato cupcake which was my absolute favourite one of the 5 we tried. All cupcakes were delicious, I would highly recommend anyone visiting this area to stop by for a cupcake!
