Due to an exciting career change we are officially closing permanently. Thank you so much for all your continued support throughout the last 10 years!! š
It has been a long time since we posted, things have been so busy. Here is some of what we have been working on. To place a special order give us a call at 803-335-1440!
We apologize for any delays in getting back to those of you who have called and left voicemails the last week or so. Allergy season has reared its ugly head and I have lost my voice. It is just starting to come back. If you have called and not received a response, please email us at [email protected] as my voice is not good enough yet to return calls. Thank you for understanding!
We would like to thank our customers for their support during this holiday season and throughout the year.
We would also like to clarify an issue that we know you will be able to help us with. As you know, we closed our retail location in September of 2019 and are now a SPECIAL ORDERS ONLY BAKERY.
We schedule specific order pick up times because we have many customers picking up and we have many orders scheduled for delivery as well. It makes it difficult to keep our delivery schedule when our customers do not adhere to the time they chose to pick up.
We rely on our customers to pick up on time or call us, in advance, if they are unable to arrive on time just as they rely on us to be available at the time that was scheduled.
Thank you for understanding and have a great Holiday!

We will continue to accept orders by phone at 803-335-1440. A MINIMUM OF 48 HOURS IS REQUIRED FOR ALL ORDERS. Everything is made fresh to order, we do not have any premade items.

The Confection Cottage is taking itsā very successful bakery and tea business virtual!
The Confection Cottage temporarily closed as required by the government on March 18, 2020. Our retail location remained closed to walk in customers for the next six months while we transitioned our business to a no-contact venue. We continued to accept special orders and deliver our delicious, fresh from scratch baked goods to our customers. After recognizing people are still unsure about going out and eating in restaurants, but are comfortable with curbside pickup, we made the decision to fully realize the transition of an on-line, special order, no-contact style of business.
To that end, The Confection Cottage ābakeryā remains open and Chef Kirstie is accepting orders by phone at 803-335-1440 for local pickup and delivery, or on-line through our website www.theconfectioncottage.com (for shipping our cakes, pies, cheesecakes, teas and tea accessories across the U.S.).
