I do not know what it is about the Valley lately, but every time I tell myself I am cutting back on sweets, another Black owned bakery pops up on my feed like, “hey girl, come try this real quick.” And honestly, I do. I absolutely do. So today I am basically taking you inside my sweet tooth journal. These are the places I daydream about when I am supposed to be minding my business. These 11 Black owned bakeries in Phoenix and the surrounding cities are doing the Lords work, one treat at a time.
Hunnie Butter Bakery
Every time I see a post from Hunnie Butter Bakery, I am reminded that carbs are a love language and I am fluent.

Sugar Star Sweet Treats
Listen, you need to take a moment and go get a Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookie from their custom vending machine inside the Salvation Army Kroc Center in Phoenix. A vending machine that dispenses fresh cookies? Genius.
