Nana's Lil Sweets

Been by here a few times now and it hits every time! Unfortunately with all of the commercialization that is happening in the triangle area, small bakeries like this are very hard to find. Glad to have something like this in Garner. The almond croissant and stuffed cookies are delicious!

Wonderful custom order cakes! We ordered a cowboy cake for a baby shower and Barbara knew exactly what I wanted. The cake looked adorable and the taste was absolutely delicious! We did 2 flavors. One tier was chocolate cake with strawberry mouse filling , and the other tier was yellow butter cake with Bavarian mouse filling . Buttercream frosting. Cake was moist and not overly sweet. Our guest couldn’t stop talking about how good it was and asking where it came from . We’ve enjoyed other treats as well. We ordered another cake for Thanksgiving and know it will be a hit!

We’ve stopped here several times. Initially, I was so excited to find this small-batch bakery in the very small Garner downtown area. Unfortunately, the shine has worn off because of several experiences that fall short. Most recently, I purchased a small bag of small chocolate chip cookies (pictured). For $6.25, I received 10 small cookies, US quarter shown for scale, including several cookies that appear to have *A* chocolate chip. I guess the label, Chocolate Chip, is literal. @ least 1 has 0 chocolate chips. On another visit, I arrived 2 or 3 minutes before they opened. Instead of unlocking the door to let me in seconds before their posted hours of operation start, a staff member stood feet away playing around with item positioning on a shelf…. just the other side of the glass…

I recommend this place 100%. After calling multiple chain grocery stores and being told they couldn’t do a simple cow print cake, I decided to place my order with Nanas Lil Sweets. I was pleasantly reminded why it is so important to support your local small businesses. The customer service made placing an order easy and left me confident that I would have a cake that would not disappoint in flavor and looks. The cake came out beautiful and most importantly tasted amazing, perfectly balanced between savory and sweet.

I've been going to Nana's for over a year now and I should have posted this long ago. But since we finally did a holiday pie order, it is as good a time as ever to give this review. Such a great bakery! The scones are amazing. Every time we have people from out of town come, I will sneak out Saturday morning and get an assortment of these scones along with an assortment of other breakfast goods that wins all out of towners over. The Thanksgiving pies might become a christmas tradition. All of them were wonderful but the chocolate chess pie was a huge hit! Never had one as good as here. The staff is friendly and always baking large corporate orders, wedding orders, birthday goods, and sweets for every type of event. If you grab a coffee from Full Bloom around the corner, you would do yo
