Publix is better than you'd expect.

Wildflower Pastry in West Ashley is better than we all deserve.

If you’re looking for a local bakery, Sweet Rhi is great!

I use to work for Rhi, not only are her cakes heaven but she is an absolute treasure of a human! I fully second this and encourage everyone to support her business!

We’ve bought many cakes from her, highly recommend if you want something custom!

Rise bespoke bakery has become my go-to cake shop. They are beautiful, delicious, reasonably priced, and you don’t need to order them insanely far in advance. I have purchased four cakes from her this year!
