A Sweet Beginning
For those who may not know, Dulce is taking over the location previously occupied by the beloved Cupcake DownSouth, which unfortunately closed its doors in 2022. The owners of Dulce, Iris Perea and Sharisa Boyle, aren’t new to the baking scene. They previously ran a popular spot known as Cake Collection Boutique in the Irmo area, and now they are rebranding and bringing their passion for baked goods to the heart of Columbia’s arts and retail district.
Tantalizing Treats Await
What can you expect from this new local gem? Brace yourselves for an array of scrumptious delights! Dulce Bakery and Cafe will serve up an impressive menu featuring cake slices, cupcakes, tres leches, fresh brownies, and not to forget, energizing coffee to accompany these delectable treats. And if you are looking for a hearty bite to start your day, Dulce will also offer breakfast sandwiches that promise to satisfy your morning cravings.
Looking ahead, the bakery has plans up its sleeve! During lunch hours, the shop will introduce soups and sammies to tempt the taste buds even further. At nighttime, the bakery aims to shift gears with a delightful dessert bar, adding an exciting twist to your evening outings.
Vibrant Neighborhood Vibes
