    Amazing cake

    Sweet Carolina Cupcakes stepped up for us after another vendor was unable to fulfill our contract. We had a naked lemon cake with raspberry filling, all vegan. It was an amazing cake. You wouldn’t believe it was vegan. My only regret is not having more cake. Just a fantastic cake. And it looked amazing too!!

    Amazing cupcakes!

    For our 6.27.20 wedding we chose sweet Carolina Cupcakes. Rather than going with a traditional wedding cake we went with multiple varieties of mini cupcakes and a small topper. We loved all the different flavors and the price vs a traditional cake was great too. With the pandemic we also had to adjust the amount of cupcakes (fluctuating guest count) and they were very responsive to our needs. We would definitely recommend them to anyone!

    Incredible!

    Sweet Carolina Cupcakes made our wedding cake. Not only was it gorgeous but our guests really enjoyed it as well. All night long our guests kept asking who made the cake. I definitely recommend them for a wedding or an event!

    These cupcakes and cake where amazing! We decided to go with cupcakes instead of a giant wedding cake and I am so happy with that decision. The set up was so cute and just like we talked about and the design of my cake was exactly like the picture I showed them. People from my wedding could not stop talking about how delicious the cupcakes were the next day. The women at the shop were also some of the sweetest people I have ever met as well. Loved everything about this vendor!!

    We used Sweet Carolina Cupcakes for our wedding cupcake cake. I just loved the end result. The topper was perfect as to what I wanted and the cupcakes were the perfect touch. I think everyone enjoyed it tremendously. It was definitely super good! A must for any event! Thank you Holly and staff!!

    We were extremely happy with our cupcakes and small cake from Sweet Carolina. We had them delivered and set up by our contact, Cadell, who was helpful not only when we did our tasting and purchased our package, but he did an amazing job setting up our display!

    I'm pretty sure the cupcakes were the hit of our wedding. The next morning our guests were asking if there were any leftovers. I am not a sweets or desserts person but I ate a few of everything they provided. Their cupcakes are phenomenal - I highly recommend the cakepops as well. Cadell is also amazing to work with and put things together at our reception beautifully. He was extremely flexible and responsive, which is great for a bride planning her wedding in Hilton Head from Cincinnati. He was thoughtful enough to even contact us with a cost savings opportunity to keep us under budget. I need Sweet Carolina Cupcakes to open a shop in Cincinnati!

    Incredible! Sweet Carolina Cupcakes made our reception! We chose Key Lime and Chocoholic as our two flavors along with one top tier traditional wedding cake. Two months later our families still refer to the cupcakes as most memorable at the reception. I recommend Sweet Carolina Cupcakes for any event and Holly was so personable and easy to work with!

    The cupcakes were wonderful. We are STILL getting compliments from our guests about the taste of the cupcakes, and the look of the table. We only had a few left over, which we all ate the day after the wedding. I would highly recommend Holly and her company.

    Holly makes the best cupcakes! We met with Holly during a trip to Hilton Head planning our wedding. She was so pleasant to meet with and gave us samples which were excellent! Holly created the most beautiful Cupcake Wedding Cake for our Beach Wedding at the Westin Resort & Spa this summer. Call Holly at Sweet Carolina Cupcakes...you won't be disappointed! Thanks Holly for the beautiful Cupcake Tree! - Kelley Callahan, Charlotte NC

    People couldn't stop raving about the cupcakes at our wedding! We special ordered 4 dozen all-vegan cupcakes, and created our own flavors. Cadell was a pleasure to work with, and went out of his way to find vegan ingredients and create new vegan recipes.

    It's best to call or show up in person rather than e-mail initially.

    We love Sweet Carolina Cupcakes, and are so glad we chose them for our wedding!

    Great tasting cupcakes

    The cupcakes we ordered for our wedding were amazing! Holly made a great suggestions to have some small and some larger cupcakes. It was hit for everyone to try different flavors! We only met with Holly one time to try the cupcakes and make the payment. It was super easy, especially being a destination bride! Would highly recommend!

    The cupcakes turned out great and we were so happy with them! They tasted even better the day of our wedding then I remembered at our tasting. Cadelle was really great to work with and he did such a great job setting up our display table. Everything looked great!
    It's easier to stop in and chat then to email. We live out of town so it was worth while to stop in and chat then to wait for an email.
    Overall, we loved the cupcakes and were very happy with this bakery!

    The cupcakes from Sweet Carolina were AMAZING! My guests loved every flavor. The decorations on each cupcake were amazing considering I gave very little direction. They arrived on time and were setup beautifully.

    Sweet Carolina Cupcakes did a cupcake tower for my wedding It looked and tasted absolutely fabulous. I found a photo of what I wanted it to look like, and they went above my photo and my expectations. Our wedding guests loved the design of the tower, as well as the taste of the cupcakes. All of the flavors we had were fabulous. We chose wedding cake, chocolate, and red velvet. I realized at our tasting that these were the best cupcakes I have ever tasted. I could not asked for a better cake for my wedding!

    Delicious! We met with Holly to find flavors for our cake and just fell in love with the product. The cupcakes were all moist and flavorful no matter the flavor chosen. She allowed us to alter some of the icings, etc to help fit our theme for our wedding. We live in Ohio, so most of our communication was through email and at times it was a little delayed in response time. Even with that it was never more than a few days and as the wedding got closer response times were much quicker. They picked displays that matched our theme and delivered the cupcakes to our venue. They even set up the cake with the flowers from the florist. We were able to get our anniversary cake from them as well. They were very easy to work with and our guests loved the cupcakes! We took the displays back the next day. We would definitely recommend them!

    We ordered cupcakes and a small cake to cut from Sweet Carolina Cupcakes. We absolutely loved the cake and the cupcakes. They delivered it on time and we really had no interaction with them. The only negative side was that it was hard to get in contact with them initially.

    The first time I called Sweet Carolina Cupcakes and left a message with questions about providing dessert for my wedding, no one called back. I had to call again a few weeks later. The email communication after booking them for cake pops for my wedding was no better- it took multiple emails about the same questions/topics to get a response. The day of my wedding they did not deliver enough cake pops despite having already paid for all of them. My wedding coordinator noticed this and let me know as well as Sweet Carolina Cupcakes. I never heard from them with an apology and when I finally reached out to inform them myself their response was "oh well, it was too late by the time the coordinator told us, there was a mix up" they offered to send me a dozen cake pops. When I told them I just wanted a refund for the cake pops that had been paid for and not delivered, I got no response and I'm still waiting... I've given up. They make delicious cupcakes and cake pops. We've been traveling to hilton head for 30+ years and were so excited to have found them and frequented their shop. However after the customer service for my wedding, I am totally disappoint end and I would caution anyone using them as a wedding vendor.

    I didn't use this company for an event,... But I almost did. Their cupcakes are more expensive then Georgetown cupcakes, and the quality is inferior. The icing was too sweet and surgery, the cake part was dry. I just stopped in the store to try these and was very disappointed. Hopefully I just ate a bad batch.
