Honeybear Bake Shop — Restaurant in Charlotte

Let me tell you about the best cookies in Charlotte.

I was browsing Instagram one day back in August when Jess L. posted about some amazing looking cookies from a new bake shop one of his clients was opening. I immediately started following honeybear.

Then she does a giveaway for her test cookies before she opens to the public. I'm the giveaway queen, so I obviously entered. Lucky me, I won! She gave us a box of 10 cookies. They were amazing. Every single one. They're such unique flavors and they're executed beautifully.

In the weeks since, she has exploded in popularity. I avoided the temptation to order more for a while because we had dessert overload. Then this week's boxes hit and I couldn't resist.

How it works: she posts the weekly flavors on Instagram on Sunday. You have until Wednesday to order on her website. Pickup is at her location in City Kitch on Friday or Saturday. She does curbside.

She is the nicest, friendliest, and most accommodating person!

Some of my favorite cookies so far: PB&J, Gordgeous Pumpkin Caramel, Strawberry Shortcake, Blueberry Muffin, Corn and Pimento Cheese, Key Lime Pie.

They're all so good though. Some others I really enjoyed: Cinnamon Roll, New York Cheesecake, Peanut Butter Captain Crunch. The S'mores is incredibly popular (Anthony loves it, I don't like chocolate).

Go support this wonderful baker and get some amazing cookies! $15...

First off, love supporting small businesses and pastry chefs! A good pastry is like having a slice of home that you can hold and enjoy. Her flavors were very nostalgic for my husband and I with a lot of delicious twists. I had ordered on Monday and picked up on Friday. The experience was effortless and the owner came out with the cookies. She was kind, sweet and fun but also you could tell she was busy because this place is AMAZING! We got two zebra cookies, a wild berry, strawberry shortcake (I believe), smorereo, honey bun and the nutella filled croissant with a cookie inside plus whipped topping! french kiss it was heaven! Not only did each cookie taste exactly like the name but it went beyond that. I don’t even know how she achieved such perfect consistency but also with her own twist. Each cookie is well thought out, beautiful and you can tell she truly cares. I don’t know how she creates a new menu every week and does so well but she’s killing it along with her lovely staff! If you’re on the fence because of cost, it’s well worth it, she gives you your moneys worth in every cookie. If it’s because you don’t know if a cookie can be elevated this much.. trust me. She can and she did! I was hesitant but now I’m a believer. Love this place and can’t wait to see what she...

I could go on for days about how amazing Hannah's cookies are. I've literally never had a better cookie and I am known to have a cookie obsession. Simple put they're creative and delicious. Some bakeries make sweets and you just taste "sugar", but these are scrumptious!! The flavors are amazing!! I personally recommend the cinnamon roll, brown sugar poptart, and half baked cookie. But get funky and try a unique one too like the corn and pimento cheese -I was skeptical but even it was fantastic!! The only thing more wonderful than the cookies is Hannah herself. She donates cookies monthly my daughter's monthly milestone pictures and she goes above and beyond for customer service. She texted me and volunteered to write a note for an order I was shipping to a family member. (That's right, she ships nationwide!!). She truly is one of a kind and everyone in our family loves her AND her cookies. Stop reading already...
