I came in the other day and was greeted by Morgan. She was lovely and helped me navigate the menu. And omg the drunken shakes!! Frozen lemonade & the resurrection will now be my go to! My only hope is that one day they'll offer something gluten free becausethose cakes do look amazing!

Only a short walk from the Charleston Market. This little gem is the perfect place to satisfy any sweet tooth while exploring the heart of Charleston, SC. They had a fantastic selection of desert alcoholic concoctions plus coffee drinks. Most of their deserts were also Gluten free, which was nice. The cakes are alittle rich for my tastes but I adore their banana pudding. Pricing was pretty good considering how big their cakes portions were. Overall a very welcoming open space. Seating is limited especially on busy hours. However, if you do snag a spot, the warm decor and inviting atmosphere makes it the perfect hang out spot.

They offer 3 GF desserts. It was really hard to see the peanut butter chocolate cupcake and not be able to have it, but the chocolate mousse tart was delicious. It’s a great place to pick up dessert!
