"We feel like skipping when we enter the airy pink and yellow shop of Buttersweet Bakery. Filled with butterfly and flower art and vintage Barbies on several display shelves, the downtown Hapeville bakery just has that effect. While the shop is cute and fun, this place has been a two-decade-long neighborhood staple thanks in large part to their seasonally rotating tarts. If you’re here during the fall and winter, get the velvety, pleasantly-spiced sweet potato tart. We also love the pecan tart, which is packed with sticky, caramelized pecans, all held together in a tender crust." - Jacinta Howard

We have heard so much about this place, so we gotta try them out. The parking was easy street parking. The owner is very friendly and helpful. This place is cozy. They offer wide variety of sweet bake goods. Once you walked in, it’s like a rabbit hole, it’s hard to stop ordering. At first glance, all the bakery look amazing and mouthwatering, all these are backed up by the wonderful flavors. You can tell, they made it with love and soul. Thank you for making our day a lot BUTTER&SWEETer with your offerings.

Buttersweet Bakery isn't just another treat stop – it's a destination for anyone with a sweet tooth. Consistently ranking high on my Atlanta bakery crawl list, they've mastered the art of reinventing classic treats with unique and delicious twists. Their blondies are legendary. Every bite is a chewy, flavor-packed paradise, leaving me wanting more. Craving something a bit smaller? The mini sweet potato pies are divine little bites of heaven, perfectly sized to satisfy your sweet tooth without leaving you feeling overindulged.

They have the only oatmeal raisin cookies that I'll eat because I really don't like raisins...AT ALL! So what she's doing to have ordering them every time I come in there...I JUST DON'T KNOW! 🤗

OH. MY. GOSH. This place is off-the-charts good! They make beautiful wedding cakes that taste even better than they look. Cupcakes, too. Try everything! The cookies are too good! I'm already wishing I'd bought more when I was there. Soft, chewy, perfect. My favorite: Sugar cookie. These are so good that they will make your eyes roll back in your head. My husband's favorite: Oatmeal raisin. They're pretty much perfect. Our other favorite: Chunky chocolate chip. Dreamy. You can taste the real butter and quality ingredients in these cookies. Super friendly staff. We are obsessed. See photo...We ate part of a cookie before we could even take the picture. Not sorry.

Attended a private birthday celebration here. The ambiance was verrry nice ... smooth Jazz ... sophisticated crowd and ohhh the sweets were decadent!!! Great spot to have a cup of Java and a scrumptious pastry. The challenge will be what to choose! Recommendation: yes, give it a try!

Wanted a sweet dessert after dinner and randomly landed on this place. The decor was super cute. It has such a fun vibe with all the bright colors and fun pieces of decor. The service was fast and we were in and out. I ordered the key lime tart and it was okay, I can't really complain but it wasn't amazing. Perhaps I would go and try something else if I'm ever back in Atlanta and on that side of town. They have cupcakes, pies, and tarts.

Is this baker out of business? I called several times and no one answered OR returned my call. So disappointed!

I cannot say enough good things about Buttersweet! The shop is adorable and everything we've tried is delicious. Most recently, Charlita accommodated a rush order for a red velvet birthday cake and even opened for me to pick it up on a Monday. The cake was absolutely divine-- rich cream cheese frosting with moist fluffy cake it is the best red velvet we've ever had! I can't wait to place another order for our next special occasion!

Yelp
I love bringing my daughter here when she has a good day after school. Lol it's also a treat for me. They baked her custom birthday cake when she was 2 (now 4) and I haven't stopped coming back since! Also for the custom cake, I showed her a picture and that's all she needed!!! Her cake was better than the picture.

This is one of my favorite bakeries in Atlanta. I discovered it a few years ago when working nearby and try to go every time I'm in the area. I don't really like cakes and cookies, but pound cake is one of my favorite desserts, along with sweet potato pie, so I always go for one or both of those! The sweet potato pie is seasonal though, only available in the fall. I've always experienced good customer service and have never had a bad dessert from there. I'll continue frequenting this place whenever I'm nearby!

Yelp
How can I forget about one of my favorite bakeries in the world! It a been a while, but I have been coming to this place for years. I love the lemon bar. The service is always 10 out of 10. I love the downtown Hapeville area, the shop has a little retro store from vibe. Please do yourself a favor and try them out!

Drove all the way over here after I saw all the yummy pictures on yelp. Yelp site says open till 5 PM on Saturday. Get there at 3:15 and sign says closed. See a girl sitting inside there and shakes her head no. So I called the number and get an answering machine that also states they are open till 5 PM on Saturday. Nice to know.

I was headed to my nail appointment at Bliss when I saw this cute little bakery! I was promptly greeted by the owner, who was so warm and kind. I opted to get a vanilla cupcake and a water bottle, which was about $5. It was so so moist and delicious!! I know gourmet cupcakes are more pricey, so I know the price would be a bit higher than a regular Publix cupcake. I would definitely come back here!!

My daughter moved down the street six months ago. We have drove by, stopped , called with never a answer attempting to understand when they actually open. Well maybe today is the day ‍

Such a charming place with outstanding baked goods. Love this place anytime but when you have a special event, Darrell will make sure you have an excellent looking and tasting product. Just love Buttersweet! supertrooper said it.

I absolutely love this place! I was introduced to Buttersweet bakery through an event at my job. It was one of those experiences where you bite into the cake and immediately ask, "WHO MADE THIS!?" because you are so impressed. Since finding out about this bakery, I have used them on several occasions and they never disappoint! The staff is also very kind and accommodating. My favorite is the strawberry cake :)

Keiona E.

Ive been to this spot a few times and each time someone went out of their way to enhance my experience. I appreciate the great customer service but especially love the delish goods! My favorite is the coffee bar. I dream about it! Lol

Essence G.

This place is my favorite bakery near Atlanta. I absolutely fell in LOVE with their smiley bars (you have to try them) and also their pineapple upside down mini cake. It is very delicious and well worth your dime! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The sweet aroma of treats will fill your nostrils from the outside. The inside of the bakery is decorated very nice. 10/10. I definitely recommend.

I've been searching for the BEST cupcake in Atlanta. I think I've found it! The red velvet cupcake AND icing was delish. Not sure about those hours though, they close at 5, ugh. Didn't effect the rating!

Phil N.

Mmmmmmm good. I love the cupcakes. I got strawberry and red velvet, both were delish. Got an extra for a friend. She may not get hers. This is truly testing our friendship.

This is the first time that I've come in this little gem. I got an assortment of treats for a nearby customer. I couldn't get out of the place without something for me which was a coconut bar with all sorts of delicious ingredients in it. The Owner is a delight and made sure to tell me to come back again. I will!!!!

Paige M.

Yelp
Poor customer service. They act like you shouldn't even come in. Boring looking desserts on display. They act like owning a bakery is something we should praise them for. I'm surprised this place has been open for so long. Really rude. Unwelcoming. Ugly character. Lock your doors and put a sign up that says "go away" if you don't want people coming in.

Tamira M.

Yelp
I love this neighborhood bakery! The wife & husband are a great duo. She's the mastermind behind the delish sweet treats & he's personable with an outgoing spirit & always ready to engage in a good 'ole conversation. The colorful vibe inside the store makes you feel alive. The wide selection of cupcakes, cakes, cookies, lemon bars, brownies, & much more will satisfy your sweet tooth. The key lime cupcake is to die for! The lemon bars are my favorite-not too tart, but just right with a light crust. The rewards program is a bonus and once all spots are filled gets you a free half dozen cupcakes. You will quickly fill your card because you'll keep coming back for more. They'll be sure to surprise you with new creations like the strawberry cookie or blue velvet cupcake. Need I say more?! The prices are fair. Free street and nearby lot parking are available. They offer Uber pick-up. If you're in the Hapeville area you must stop in and meet the owners, support a small local business, enjoy a special sweet treat!

Yelp
This pretty little bakery with it's pretty little baked goods is severly lacking in anything else. A pretty little, rotten attitude, no greeting, no thank you, no cash and no receipts. I will give it a one star rating for it's baked goods and one star for it's decor and nothing more Support local businesses that return the courtesy!

The chocolate chip cookies are amazing. So is the Sweet Georgie Brownie. Good lord, it's delicious.

I have had the honor of eating baked goods from Buttersweet Bakery for years. The owner Charlita gives you that personal touch. No order too small or too difficult. The Key Lime and Red Velvet cupcakes are so, so good!!! I remember the raspberry cake she made for me...I can still taste it. My daughter love the brownies and whenever my niece is in town from Mississippi, she always go by the bakery and take goodies home with her. We had a great Super Bowl and birthday cake aNd just recently we had a dozen cupcakes that were out of this world. Thank you, Buttersweet for satisfying our sweet tooth. I need a small raspberry cake for no reason!!! Charlita, I will be calling you soon.

The Chocolate chip & pecan cookie was DELICIOUS. I had a chocolate cupcake and my husband had marble. When I asked if he looked it, he said it was "super good". The cake was so most and the icing was fluffy and not too sweet. The Chocolate brownie will be consumed later with my husband but the sampler I had in the store was too good to not endulge. I'll definitely be back

Cheryl D.

Yelp
I regularly visit Buttersweet and Tiffany is definitely my favorite person here. I have an affinity for INCREDIBLE Red Velvet Cupcakes. I have sampled just about every flavor they make here and by far the Red Velvet is my favorite. Key Lime and Chocolate make a respectable strong finish. I have relatives out of town who love the KEY LIME...they rave about the flavor and moistness of the cake. Parking for me has never been a problem, if you are looking for easy parking go to Kroger on Cleveland Ave. It is huge and the cupcakes are not as good! Stop complaining about frivolous and enjoy the cupcake...and have a BUTTERSWEET DAY!

My pecan pie today was delicious. Fresh and the crust was divine. I knocked 1 star only because I was told the pie was sweet potato pecan. I couldn't detect or see any sweet potato.

Mela L.

Yelp
Hopefully I'll get another chance to update my review, but I came here on a day trip and sadly am leaving... they were closed. So, yeah, I'm pretty salty that I drove all the way across town wasting time and gas to give them a try just to find they had better things to do... (sad face).

Tracy H.

Yelp
One of my favorite spots for an afternoon treat. Cookies, cupcakes and lemon bars... all to die for. My favorites are the strawberry, lemon or cream cheese pound cake, chocolate chip cookies with pecans, lemon bars and peanut butter cookies (I frequent this place often!). You can't go wrong with any of those choices. The parking is limited right out front of the shop. They have a rewards program as well *yay*. The staff is also very friendly! You will have a Buttersweet day once you leave with those goodies... yum!

Unfortunately I can't get here often enough because of my work schedule, but I guess that's a good thing for my waistline. Their brownies are amazing. The shop is super cute and has a quaint, cozy atmosphere. I just found out they also serve sandwiches and ice cream and can't wait to try them.

I was in Atlanta for business & wanted to get a homemade treat for after dinner. I found this wonderful little bakery near my hotel. I got there right before they closed & all of the cupcakes were sold. The owner said he had a few more & went into the back and frosted the best vanilla cupcake ever I have had in a long time! Highly recommend this special place. Super friendly & welcoming!!!

Sheri W.

Yelp
What a wonderful bakery. The owner was very kind when a nearby business took advantage of my husband and I. She even gave me my baked good for free. The food is quality and the staff is even more amazing! . It shows there are good people in the world. Make sure to park on the street and not next door at Woodco Transmission because he will boot your car and charge you $75!!!

So you've been invited to a dinner party and you offer to bring a dessert. You've exhausted your "stop by Kroger on the way there for a halfway tasty dessert" option and are looking for something a little more special. That's when you need to visit Buttersweet Bakery in Hapeville. I got a small assortment of the most decadent desserts I've ever had, and my friends at the dinner party agreed. I got (1) brownies--absolutely heavenly--very dark, deep chocolate flavor with a hint of coffee; (2) Emma-doodles--named after the owner's daughter--these are like magic cookie bars with coconut and chocolate chips; and (3) fruit tarts which were light and fresh with a wonderful assortment of kiwi, blueberries, orange and strawberries on top. I had the pleasure of talking with the owner Charlita for a few minutes while she carefully prepared my box of goodies. She was very pleasant and made it a point to get to know me, a local patron and Hapeville citizen. I love the decor--a bright and whimsical design with a hint of antique. Very welcoming and different for the Hapeville area.

You know, I went to Buttersweet about 2 or 3 years ago and thought the baked goods were below average. A brownie there was flat out disgusting. But time passes and they still have a cumulative four stars on Yelp - a likely indication that it should be pretty good. So was my first visit just an off day? Or perhaps they Buttersweet originally sucked, but has improved over the years? Well, I can confirm it wasn't just an off day. I went back over the weekend and picked up three items. I think the owner's taste and mine do not align. The desserts here are overly sweet and overly greasy. The reason for their moistness is too much fat - whether it be oil or butter. I realize moistness is a desirable characteristic in most baked goods, but not to the point of leaving behinds gobs of excess. I just think their ratios are off - use less sugar (and more brown) and more flower or less fat. The staff there is extremely friendly and helpful, but that just can't make up for the not-so-great sweets.

I have really enjoyed this bakery over the past 2-3 years. The owner is usually there and will come out to speak with you, if she isn't already the person taking your order. I have had several items from this bakery. My favorites are the Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter and Oatmeal cookies. I also love the Chocolate cake and I tried either a Red Velvet or Strawberry cake. I think Red Velvet but it's been a couple of years. I also really like the Brownies as well.....So far everything has been fresh, moist and delicious! This is the best Bakery on this side of town.

Yelp
We love Buttersweet Bakery! For the last two years, I have ordered Birthday cakes for my boyfriend's birthday gatherings. Last year a chocolate cake and this year a red velvet. Both cakes received rave reviews from our guests. Many said the red velvet was the best they've had as it wasn't too sweet. Thank you for being a wonderful neighborhood bakery and we wish you continued success!

Kelly H.

Yelp
Its a really cute bakery...its really bright and cheery! I went to grab a couple cookies and a brownie. I didn't really like the brownie, but the chocolate chip cookies were freshly baked and tasted oh so good! They have a lot of different goodies for you to choose from which are shown in the pics I took.

Emi O.

Yelp
Stopped by to pick up some dessert items. Really unfriendly reception, no hello - just a look that made me feel like turning around and walking out (which I should have). Selected some cookies and cupcakes and paid with my debit card. You'd think that the girl thought I'd take off with the card reader by the way she held it on the far side of the counter, and not let me enter my pin without her watching what it was. Items themselves were too sweet and cupcakes were tiny, not worth the $3+ each price.

Mike M.

Yelp
Grabbed a pecan tart and a brownie after getting my Thai next door (one for now, one for later was the plan). The mini pecan pie was great - sweet and rich and real. The brownie was insanely good. I wish I had gotten more, but lucky I didn't. The shop was neat and clean and you can see right back into the kitchen that looked the same. Small case with a good selection of treats and some drinks. The woman behind the counter was nice and seemed tired at the end of the day. Far from being offended in any way, I figured she was the baker, but I didn't ask. Next time I will.

I love the Buttersweet Bakery staff in downtown Hapeville. They're all VERY fun, engaging in the few moments you're there and they're definitely not against selecting a chocolate chip cookie with extra chips when you're tell them you're a C.Chip cookie fiend. Customer service alone is worth 5 stars. Now on to the food. I got a chocolate chip cookie and was so amazed at the presentation of the red velvet cupcakes, I ordered one of those too. The cupcake, before my teeth sank into it, had me salivating. Afterwards, must admit it was just "okay", not quite the deliciousness I was anticipating. The frosting didn't have as much of a cream cheesy tang as I would like, although the cake itself was pretty moist, definite plus! The chocolate chip, I ate much later, and true enough, there was a ton of chocolate chips, but it was a little small, although the price of both weren't terrible, as I walked away paying under 4 bucks. Interior was very clean and intimate, no indoor seating (that I remember) and parking is along the street, which gets a little tough to find a close spot during lunch times. I think Buttersweet is a nice little addition to Hapeville if you have a sweet tooth with a great staff and good dessert.

I went there it was very pricey! I had a dry cookie it didn't have any flavor too it! It was very bland tasting and I also had one of there brownies! I won't be back! I'll stick with Publix it way better & cheaper

I decided to try this place today because their website http://www.buttersweetbakery.com/ had a promotion on Thursday. Buy a combo meal and get chips and a full cookie. The Buttersweet bakery is in historic Hapeville. The first challenge is to find parking. There is very limited parking in the front of the bakery, which is on the very busy N Central Ave. However, the city has free parking behind the bakery on N Fulton Ave. The bakery interior is nice and I ordered the Mediterranean Chicken on a Ciabatta with a Pecan & Chocolate chip cookie, a bag of "Dirty Sweet Potato Chips", and a can of Cheerwine for about $8. The place was slow, so I did not have to wait to order. It took them about 10 minutes, or what seemed like forever to prepare my sandwich. While waiting I noticed that they have bathrooms at the rear of the bakery. They also advertised wifi; I am guessing it is free for patrons but I did not ask. Their menu also had some promotion for Clear. The wait for the sandwich was worth it. The greens, fresh chicken, and feta cheese on a ciabata bun was tasty. The sweet potato chips were pretty good as well; I just wish they carried a baked version. The cookies were ok, but almost tasted overcooked. I really like my cookies to be chewy not crunchy. The cheerwine tasted like any other type of soda, but I think it has a cult following in the south. I will make a return trip to Butterwseet Bakery on another Thursday, and try one of their other desserts, but it will be hard for me not to get the Mediterranean Chicken on a Ciabatta.

This is a great place to get some dessert. I came in here after going to Thai Heaven and got a pineapple upside down cake. The cake was delicious. The outside was crispy with a caramel glaze and the inside was moist and soft. The pineapple was fresh also and even had a cherry.

Candice A.

Yelp
How did i not know this was in Hapeville? After our dinner next door we decided to check this place out since neither of us had noticed it before. It did not disappoint. I got a cheesecake brownie and he got a red velvet cupcake. Both were very rich and delicious!

I'm staying at a local hotel and needed a sweet something FAST...but I unfortunately don't have access to a car. After yelping several local bakeries I decided Buttersweet was the most on point. OMG sooooooo yummy!! And def worth the 3 mile walk:) Two words: CREAMCHEESE BROWNIES. Very near and dear to my heart!! I ate half with the intention of saving the rest for my hubby, but a few minutes later he now only has about a square inch left to taste. In store presentation is very cute and modern, packaging of your treats is stylish and boutique-like, and the promo of bogo cupcakes on Thursday (buy one get one for $1) earned them an extra star. Thank you Buttersweet for homestyle yumminess!!

Great service! Tried the banana pudding cupcake today and it was yummy. It tasted just like I was eating a banana pudding. My friend enjoyed the key lime cupcake but the red velvet was not a hit.

Buttersweet is a short drive from the Atlanta airport in a cute little town. I tried the German chocolate cupcake and the sweet potato pie and really enjoyed both. The cupcake was pretty big and had just the right amount of topping. It wasn't overly sweet, and the chocolate cake was lovely. The little bit of chocolate buttercream was a nice touch. I've never had sweet potato pie. It was a slightly less sweet pumpkin pie-like flavor. The crust was soft--I actually liked my sweet potato pie just as much as my mom's homemade pumpkin pie. Now I'm wondering which is technically healthier.

They did a wonderful job. I had a custom cake made for my sons baby shower and it was absolutely magnificent ! I will definitely come to them again when I need another! The cake tasted delicious and aesthetically it was beautiful.
