Sweeter Days Bake Shop is a bakery located on Federal Hwy in the Plaza del Mar Shopping Center in Ft. Lauderdale, It is in the same plaza as CAO and Wild Fork.
I enjoyed my visit to this delightful bakery owned by Steve Crombe and Will Rubin who didn't even know how to bake when they opened Sweeter Days. They relied on their backgrounds as executives for Liz Claiborne, Eddie Bauer and Spiegel when they were inspired by the bakeries of New York to open Sweeter Days when they retired to Ft. Lauderdale in 2005. With direction from head pastry chef and cake artist Veronica Duguay they opened in January of 2010 and they quickly took off as they became known for their decadent cakes and cupcakes.
The blue striped walls set the stage for the glass cases filled with delectable looking cupcakes. They make cakes for order but you can purchase cupcakes, cake pops, cookies, and select cakes on the spot. Cupcake flavors include salted caramel, lemon dream, cinnamon bun cream cheese swirl, chocolate chip, lime coconut, carrot cake, chocolate peanut butter, cookies & cream, chocolate caramel pretzel, and my choice a divine black and white. They also sell baking supplies, T-shirts, and coffee mugs. I love how you can see them work as they make treats like the space themed layer cake during my visit. Sweeter Days is the perfect spot when you are craving a sweet treat or need the perfect cake for a special event.
