Onslow County’s Longest-Operating Family-Owned Bakery
In 2024, we’re celebrating 23 years in business. We’re proudly serving Jacksonville NC and surrounding areas as Onslow County’s longest operating family-owned bakery.
Our bakery, now located at 1130 Western Blvd, specializes in custom cake creations for all of life’s events. We are still operating with reduced staff post COVID, but make plenty of ready-to-go desserts like delicious gourmet cupcakes, dessert cakes, tea-cookies, and more, all made fresh daily in-house. Wedding cake consultations and custom cake consultations can still be scheduled Tuesday-Thursday for phone, FB messenger, or in-store appointments.
