Ordered the smoked caramel cake for our baby shower. It was absolutely perfect, and the taste was out of this world. The cake was gorgeous and the metallic dusting was beautiful and matched the topper we purchased. Thank you so much for such a great experience! We loved it and it was beautiful

We hired Swank Desserts to create our wedding cake for our small wedding. Danetra helped us figure out exactly the design we were looking for that coordinated well with our wedding decor. We were also able to sample the flavors we had narrowed down and happily decided on the Champagne & Strawberries cake - which is AMAZING. We were so happy with our cake and would recommend Swank Desserts to anyone!

I love going here!! It is a popular place so if you want a great selection get there early for a good place in the line. If you dont want to wait in the line you may risk missing out because they do sell out.Also, did you know the building is a historic building for Summerville?

Dont sleep on Swank! The desserts here are out of this world. Go early for the best selection, and get every flavor of macaron they have!

If youre craving sweets, this is the place to go to !! Everything is made from scratch (even the marshmallow) and its absolutely delicious. Go right when they open or earlier as they do sell out especially on a special occasion. Today was National Macaron day so it was crazy busy. As a thank you for standing in line early during a cold morning they graciously gave out hot chocolate with homemade marshmallow on top. The best Ive ever tasted !!!! If youre visiting Charleston, take the drive to Summerville to check Swank out! Worth the drive wherever youre coming from.

Swank Desserts is an amazing place to get delicious desserts. The macarons are amazing with a great texture and incredible flavor. The lady who greeted me was kind and helpful. It has a beautiful and inspiring interior. You can tell they put a lot of work into their shop and their sweet treats. I will definitely be back.

Amazing selection of delicious treats! I only wish I lived closer! The macarons were sooooo good. We also loved the ice cream sandwich. I definitely recommend a big variety box because everything deserves a try. Trust me, you won’t regret it!!!

Everything on the case was beautiful. The place was very clean and the person who helped us was friendly. We got five different things out of the case and none of it was what we were expecting. Im hoping that it all had been prepared days before and just wasnt fresh.

We tried a variety of items (Chocolate Carmel Fudge Brownie, Peanut Butter Cookie Sandwich, Macaroons- S’mores, Red Velvet, and Chocolate Brownie flavors-, and the BEST Sticky Buns), and each bite was so flavorful! I was excited to try Swank Desserts, but the flavor and variety exceeded any expectations I had. Excellent! The style of the place was adorable too. Plenty of seating too. I can’t wait to come back! Go ahead and treat yourself!!

Just went this morning with my husband and friend after stalking the Facebook page for months. We enjoyed everything! The macarons are divine (was a little sad I missed some flavors but thats what I get for not being earlier), the pumpkin cheesecake is heavenly and the Mexican chocolate cookie sandwich is dangerous. I had the lavender lemonade, not a lavender fan but GOODNESS! We most certainly will be coming back.

Wandered in after reading about this new local spot. Small selection of lovely desserts and coffee at reasonable prices. They also have a sitting area inside, but got our desserts to go home...they didnt make it! #delicious #supportlocalbiz

Swank Desserts catered my wedding and provided three gorgeous and delicious cakes including: Coconut and Passion-fruit, Red Velvet, and Salted Caramel. I also ordered macaroons from Swank (champagne flavor). Overall, the presentation was incredible and was set up as exactly planned and way before the ceremony. Swanks professional contract was up-front and was followed through 100%. My guests were floored by the desserts! I would recommend Swank Desserts to anyone. Working with Swank for my wedding was the best decision I ever made!! Thank you so much Swank Desserts!!

Very nice staff.. But 2x Ive tried their desserts. Neither time I was impressed. They look amazing. Taste doesnt match their appearance. Much better places around town.

Review №22

Swank is always the right idea! They change up their menu frequently but seem to keep certain staples on hand. You can splurge on yourself or bring some back to share with friends and family (if they deserve it). Today I tried the cookie dough cheesecake and had to stop myself from housing the entire thing. Its way better than other coffee/sweet shops in the area. Staff is friendly and masked up! Make sure to stop by.

It was really good I purchased the Smores dessert and it was amazing the marshmallow was very thick. While the chocolate was still cold but gave it the sweet taste you needed. Then graham cracker crumbs really pulled it together on the bottom layer.

I am completely infatuated with Swank. I have been around since the company was working out of their rented space. So you can say I’m an OG supporter. I LOVE how the business and the brand has grown. I will always continue to support. Everyone I have referred to Swank has fallen in love. It is worth every penny. Taste and quality.

Add this bakery to your list of restaurants/bakeries to check out when visiting Charleston SC (located in Summerville, easy to find). Get there early so you can try a little bit of everything! You can tell Danetra, the owner, puts her heart and soul into the whole entire place. The bakery has a fun vibe once you walk through the door. Music is blaring, cute decor, delicious homemade coffee drinks, stomach pleasing pastry items! I love going on Saturday’s because Danetra and her staff create some tasty savory items that are worth a try!Don’t sleep on this place!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Swanks is definitely a very quaint and friendly bakery. I absolutely love the decor. The owner is very meticulous about her products! It is very obvious they work hard to not disappoint. The macarons are my favorite and i love the Chorizo pastry. Thanks for the experience. My friends and i enjoyed ourselves.

We hoped for a large, beautiful, delicious over-the-top dessert table for our wedding and Swank knocked it out of the park! The desserts were amazing. And my grandfather, who is the ultimate critic of desserts, was very enthusiastic about all of Swanks delicious options. We are so grateful to Danetra and her team!

Absolutely lovely shop with great customer service. Our family LOVED the desserts and three drinks we had; especially the lavender coffee which they should consider bottling and distributing. The 30-minute drive is worth it because Im no blondie fan but that brown butter blondie is fantastic.

Im pretty sure this is one of the best dessert shop Ive ever had! The choice of desserts is amazing. Everytime I go I pretty much get one of everything lol. I can tell that everything is made from scratch like desserts should be! The atmosphere of the shop is amazing! The music in the shop gives it personality and makes me dance. The employees are friendly to me and answer all questions I have. Swank desserts definitely stands out from the rest amazing !! Worth every penny!!

This place is absolutely amazing! Everything tastes fabulous. The macarons are textbook and delicious. Dont be afraid of the flavor combos!!! My sons favs are the brioche bombs and the savory hand pies (he loves every flavor). The staff are friendly and professional. I placed a pre-order.for Christmas online....it was ready to pick up when I requested.

How you treat your loyal customers speaks volumes. It supercedes any flavor combinations you can some up with or any cutesy decor. Lesson learned. I will take my hard earned coins elsewhere!

I love SWANK desserts! The head pastry chef is phenomenal, professional, and o so creative and talented! I love the opportunity to work with her. I have used her for three different events and cant wait for the next opportunity to work with her.The presentation of her work is almost as delicious as the desserts. She does an amazing Champagne flavored Macaroon and she can add pop rocks, yes thats right, POP ROCKS to them! Simply amazing to bring to any event! Every time I bring them, people fall in love!Im sure you will enjoy!Signed with Love of Pastries,The Original Charlestonian#LEWReviews #TheOriginalCharlestonian

I tried a few things here, and the star of the show was possibly the best macarons Ive ever tasted. Amazing! I also had a really delicious and creative mimosa donut, and some EXCELLENT bread pudding. You simply cannot go wrong here! The hardest part is deciding and not ordering everything.

Maaaaaannn let me tell you! Do not go in there unless you want to indulge yourself in the most amazing desserts you will ever come across. Everything is fresh always. There is this one item that exceeds the already exceeded expectations for me that I dont remember the name of that literally tastes like bliss. Quite honestly a dangerous place...Danetra you and your crew are doing one hell of a job🤝👍 God Bless you 🙏

First time visiting here. We heard a lot of positive things about this place and when we got there we decided to order at least one of everything. The banana pudding cookie sandwich was on POINT. TheCreme brulee cake was delish! First time I’ve had a macaron and it won’t be my last! Recommend checking this place out. :)

Went for the first time today after eyeballing their menu for weeks and I’m in LOVE! Everything they have looks so tasty. I tried the brown butter blondie, donut bread pudding and salted caramel cake snack and all of it was absolutely scrumptious. The blondies didn’t survive the ride home 😅 I will definitely be a returning customer.

Ive ordered desserts from other people before but the quality of these desserts is top of the chain. Danetra is great at making all of the flavors pop with her custom recipes!! The customer service is also super great. I recommend going earlier in the day close to opening because more times then not they sell out !

My favorite local dessert joint! Service is always good and the food is always amazing! The only downside is that you have to get there early if you want the full selection, as they are liable to sell out of some things.

Review №58

Extremely over priced, also what kind of dessert place doesnt have hot coffee ?? The hot chocolate was disgusting, tasted like smoked meat.The overall appearance of the place is neat and clean and staff was nice.Honestly, you are better off going someplace else for great dessert. I prefer going downtown Charleston to Carmella’s for example. Never coming back here.

I spent $55 on a cake for my daughters 21st birthday from Swank at her request. The cake was dry, the frosting tasteless and the caramel tasted burned. I took the cake straight home and put it in the refrigerator and took it out an hour before serving it as I was instructed to do. The owner was kind enough to make us another cake, but honestly it wasnt any better. I was very disappointed to day the least.

Ive had some of the best desserts Ive ever tasted from Swank Desserts. There were a few donut promotions where I ended up ordering a dozen each time. When I received them they were super fresh. They barely made it to the house because my family ate a great deal of them in the car on the way home. Ordering online was easy and the owner was very professional in confirming a pick up time each time Ive ordered. I highly recommend!

Danetra puts her heart and soul into her bakes and thats exactly the way food should be. Her shop is sharp and everything she makes is on point. I suggest getting one of everything ;) or just keep going back for more because you are sure to get hooked. Her wedding cakes and wedding displays are to die for. Nothing beats Swank Desserts. Whether youre looking for treats for an event or just a little pick me up for your day, Swank is where its at!

Ive ordered 3 or 4 times from Swank Desserts. The first time, I was living in the Charleston area and the delivery was on time and my desserts were ON POINT!! THE most rich, moist brownies Ive ever tasted. The first time I ordered the Salted Caramel Brownies. Then I ordered a Lemon Bar Cake and, of course, the famous macaroons. That cake... SO MOIST and delicious. (My mouth is watering just thinking of it!) THEN the Peanut Butter Cup Cookie... FAB!!! Pumpkin Spice Macaroons... FAB!! And of course, the brownies are my favorite and delicious as always. Thanks Swank Desserts for keeping my sweet tooth satisfied!! HIGHLY recommend.

Absolutely Delicious!Full disclosure: We live in Summerville, SC about 2 miles from Swank Desserts. We use to go to Downtown Charleston or Hilton Head Island, SC for our Macarons. Our first visit to Swank Desserts was on Loving Day 2020. My wife and i had the Truffle and Honey Macarons and the Cookie Dough Cheesecake. Both were absolutely delicious and this much i know: We will be repeat customers and will definitely spread the word. All employees wear face masks, and follow CDC guidelines with regards to social distancing and disinfecting all indoor and outdoor areas of the store. I find that extremely responsible and life saving.

Review №89

Very bad experience, I drove during my lunch time to place a pre-order with Swank for a 21st Birthday party and the staff refused to take my order because the request was not submitted via email. The worst part was that there were not any exceptions made to take my order, especially when you do not know if your customers have access to email. I was a new customer and I was very excited about Swanks desserts however after being turned around and not being able to place an order just because I didnt place an order via email was VERY DISAPPOINTING. I WILL NOT give my business to a owner who will let a paying 1st time customer walk out of the door. I will take my business where it is appreciated. I do hope the owner will change this policy as it ruined my experience and it very inconsiderate for customers.

If you dont live in Summerville or close to it for that matter, MAKE THE DRIVE! I promise this little shop of goodness is worth it. Ive been lucky enough to work with Danetra on events and was thrilled to see she was opening a store front of her own! The SWANK brownie is my personal favorite but I have honestly never had anything of hers I didnt like. Her macaron ice cream sandwiches (available in shop only) are so creative and delicious! I know eventually there will be a SWANK 2.0 and I hope and pray its a little closer to me!

I will continue ordering from Danetra because, not only is she talented and her desserts are delicious, but she is extremely personable, and goes above and beyond to give her clients what they want. Shes constantly on top of it all and has always done incredibly well to keep me informed through e-mail as far as when desserts will be ready and when she will be at the Kitchen. One thing that everyone should experience are her pop up donut shops and her champagne macaroons! I recommend her to anyone and look forward to doing more business with her in the future.

A must have for your one of a kind desserts. Danetra crafts some of the best from scratch desserts in the low country. Come early and come often as her daily stock runs out constantly. My favorite are the nutella cookies and blondies. You will not leave disappointed and you will be supporting a local business. Come holiday season the Pecan Bourbon home made pie out of this world
