Sweet
“The mini cupcakes don't sacrifice any of the flavor or texture of their bigger siblings; they're just as good.”
“Sweet's frosting is buttery without being greasy, sugary without being sickening and their cream cheese frosting is THE BEST.”
“I've tried Sprinkles, Cupcakes by Carousel, Crumbs, Mr. Cupcake, and nothing holds a candle to Sweet's red velvet.”

This place has incredible cupcakes! Their mini cupcakes are PERFECT for bringing to a party, or if you just want to sample every flavor they have to offer in the store!!!
Their cupcakes are very flavorful and moist; the flavoring is very spot on (ie: coconut actually tastes like coconut, lemon tastes like lemon etc.) and it's really delectable. We are huge fans of their red velvet as it's more than just food coloring because you can taste that the cake part is actually denser than their other cupcakes.
I will be back and back again!
However, they DO USE NUTS in their bakery so if you have a child that has a nut allergy, be careful!!!!!
Best cupcakes ever!! Way better than magnolia although definitely comparable. I stop here quite often for a few mini cupcakes. The staff is very friendly. Last Valentine's Day, my boyfriend and I went in for two cupcakes. We walked out with a box of free mini cupcakes!!! They had completed a special order on the wrong day and thought it would be nice to give them to us. Definitely made our day.
I'm not going to give this place five stars because I wasn't thrilled with the consistency of the cakes as they were too dense for my taste. However, their cream cheese frosting is out of this world. I'm usually not a big fan of frosting, mainly because it's many times too sweet or too light or too heavy unlike Sweet's. This cream cheese frosting has the perfect amount of sweetness, vanilla extract and still has that cheesy flavor of the cream cheese. Hands down the best cream cheese frosting I've ever had, thus far. A good plus: La Colombe coffee.
WOW! This place is amazing! I honestly think it is one of the best (if not the best) Dessert places in the Hoboken and Jersey City area. It is a very small bakery buy wow is the pastries amazing. I had the the mini cupcakes and they were perfect! Not too sweet but just right. In addition to great cupcakes, the service at Sweet is great! Everyone is very attentive to their customers. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing desserts! I think Sweet is far better than that other pastry place (a TV pastry establishment). I must note that i was not a big fan of their coffee, but that is the ONLY thing that i did not like about Sweet.
I would rate Sweet as follows: Food/Desserts is 5 Stars, Price is 4.5 Stars, Service is 5 Stars and Atmosphere is 4.5 Stars.

Really delicious bakery. We tried the vanilla cupcake with cream cheese frosting and coconut as well as the chocolate cupcake with milk chocolate frosting with coconut. Yum! The vanilla cupcake was a tad bit dry but the icing helped (and there's a lot of it for all you icing lovers!). The chocolate cupcake, on the other hand, is pure perfection — totally moist and flavorful. I would definitely get more sweets from Sweet!
Cute little bakery in the middle of Hoboken. Fun cupcake flavors and friendly staff! I love their mini cupcakes, so you can taste a bunch without overdosing on sugar.
My boyfriend and I came on a Sunday morning. We were the only customers eating in, but saw multiple pick-up customers in just a half hour.
We ordered 4 mini cupcakes: vanilla with vanilla frosting, chocolate with chocolate frosting, fluffed nutter (our favorite!) with peanut butter and marshmallow frosting, and "black bottom" – a brownie cupcake with cookie dough.
Would definitely come back. Great place for a quick treat and a cup of coffee, or to stop and get a box of cupcakes as a gift!
Best cupcakes in Hoboken. They taste as good as they look and worth the price. Their mini cupcakes do it for me big time. So so good!!
I love to bake and have a sweet tooth so by nature I had to try this place out when my boyfriend told me about it!
We were welcomed by a nice girl in the back (I assume it's the kitchen) as well as the owner who asked us what we'd like to devour. Her recommendations were that everything was fairly popular, for cupcakes in particular: the chocolate bottom, red velvet and carrot being the top favorites by her customers. I personally have a unhealthy addiction to peanut butter so I went for the fluffer nutter cupcake, my boyfriend going with carrot. They have two sizes of each flavor which I think is a neat idea, I can't recall the prices but couldn't have been that bad bc it didn't strike me as expensive when I glanced. I'd love to come back for other baked sweets, the majority of the selection was cupcakes. I am not a huge fan of cupcakes but they were named just perfectly.
