Please bear with us… our site is under ‘construction’. As of May 1st, our menu will look just a little bit different.

At Bettersweet, we have always been in business to offer the an extremely high quality of product alongside superb service.  We’re still [and ever stronger] committed to that claim 8 years later!  Each year we spend time reviewing our rising costs, the volume of orders we can realistically accept as well as the time we need to give to our own growing family.

In light of our annual cost and budget review, there’s a few items we can no longer offer at the same price point as in the past.  Please take a moment to read through a few highlights below and keep this in mind the next time you are perusing our site prior to placing an order.

~We’ve added our cupcake information to our cake page tab.  Previously cupcakes have been under our bakery tab, but hopefully this will help in maneuvering our site.

~Raspberry filling lovers, please realize this is now a specialty filling with an additional cost per order.

~A few of our other flavors have become specialty as well.  We’ve moved away from offering a handful that truly are ‘never’ ordered, and we’ve added a few new flavors as well!

~We will no longer be offering our shaped cakes.  Jen would love to ‘draw’ a whimiscal and custom design on your cake, so no need to worry about tractors and firetrucks and butterflies…

~We will be reserving homemade pies for the annual Thanksgiving holiday only.

~Our signature hand rolled truffles will only be available as preset holiday assortments.  Please keep an eye out for these special holiday menus!

~All cake and cupcake pricing now INCLUDES THE BOX FEE.

~Check out our updated suggested combinations page.  Certain to give you a starting point to see what’s well loved and favorited by customers again and again!  COMING SOON..

~We’ll be adding a couple of new signature cakes that have been in the works for some time… stay tuned!
