Sassy Sweets recently moved to a new location on the Searcy downtown square. Formally located on N. Walnut Drive, the boutique bakery and cafe now offers more than just sweets for its customers with its new atmosphere and breakfast and lunch menu.
Many changes have been made to the store, including an area for customers to sit and enjoy their purchases.
With several tables and even a small seating area outside in the front of the store, this is the perfect location to relax and enjoy breakfast, lunch or an afternoon treat.
The area is also available for rent for social club gatherings, bridal showers and small luncheons. Decorated in their Sassy Sweets blue and silver, the store seems to sparkle with glittering accents on the walls and tables, while the fireplace section offers a cozy and welcoming feel to the store.
The bakery is known for having delectable treats ranging from cookies to specialty cupcakes, so there was no surprise when their new items did not disappoint.
For lunch, customers can choose from three different salads and four different sandwiches. Sandwiches include: the “PBJ All Grown Up,” which is an adult twist on the classic peanut butter and jelly with peanut butter, raspberry jam and toasted coconut, and their “All American” with hickory ham and American cheese, both served on white bread.
My favorite was the “Cheeky Chicken” though. This is not your typical chicken salad sandwich. With super fresh ingredients, including dried cranberries, pecans and bacon pieces, what’s not to love? I also tried the “Turkey Club” sandwich. The best part of this sandwich was its in-house blueberry honey mustard. While at first I was leery of the combination of blueberry and turkey, it was truly perfection.
For the early risers, the store now opens at 7:30 a.m., offering breakfast items such as bagels, muffins, scones, cinnamon rolls and yogurt parfaits. While the store is not a coffee shop, they do serve plain coffee and have a K-Cup machine for special flavored coffees.
Do not forget about their cupcakes and cookies. Flavors change from week to week and season to season, but no matter when you visit, you’re sure to enjoy.
With their new location, menu and friendly staff, Sassy Sweets is sure to be a sweet treat for any college student.
Sassy Sweets is located at 311 N. Spruce across from the county courthouse. Hours are Monday – Friday 7:30 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. – 2 p.m.
