Calling all sweets lovers! There's nothing better than treating yourself to a tasty macaroon, a perfectly frosted cupcake, or a huge slab of homemade chocolate cake. At Bittersweet Confections, you can have it all! This locally owned and operated confectionery has been churning out sinfully delicious sweets for over 15 years and it's time to pay them a visit. Let's check it out.
Bittersweet Confections opened its doors in 2004.
Their original location on Magazine Street was such a success, it wasn’t long before a second location in Mid-City opened up.
Whether you visit the Magazine Street location or the South Hennessey location, you’re in for a treat.
Just the aroma from walking in will put a smile on your face, and that’s before you even get to the counter.
Before we check out the sweet treats, let’s talk about the food.
Their breakfast and lunch menus are one of the best-kept secrets in the city!
Not only does this little bakery produce some sinfully delicious pastries and cakes, but they’re also a hidden gem when it comes to breakfast and lunch.
Fuel up on one of their tasty sandwiches, salads, or a nice cup of chicken gumbo before you treat yourself to a pastry (or two).
After you've eaten, be sure to check out the display case.
Where you'll find all sorts of incredible creations.
Whether you're just looking for a little sugar to put some pep in your step...
... or celebrating something special...
