Butter Cup Bakery Cafe — Restaurant in Vero Beach

We came here one evening last week for dessert. It's a quaint, well lit little pastry shop with gelato and some pastries. The server was an oriental fellow with multi-colored hair. He could not have been nicer but he knew NOTHING about what any of the desserts were. He was actually quite honest about this and truly seemed lost.

My wife had gelato so his only issue there was that he had to look up what the flavors were and what the ingredients are. I decided to have a pastry. Again, he had no idea what any of the pastries were, nor what the ingredients were. Nothing was labeled as to what they were but I took a chance and chose a small chocolate looking cake and a chocolate chip cookie and we took our order to go. The cake was stale but my wife enjoyed her gelato. I ate the chocolate chip cookie two days later and it was ok. Everything here is very expensive so you would expect that the service would be top notch. Not the case obviously.

If you have food allergies, you might want to stay away from this place since they do not seem to know what they are selling. All it would take would be for someone to be told that there are no nuts in something only to find out...

They let us taste most of the flavors that we didn't know what they were which was nice. Something I never enjoy when going out to an ice cream parlor or any sorts is random names that aren't common knowledge on their ice creams with no description. It was kind of annoying having to ask what every flavor was and her having to explain it multiple times because my wife or daughter didn't hear. Aside from that the Quality was excellent. All of the flavors were all fairly unique and they give you a moderate amount. Something else that stood out as in a negative way was their early closing time. We arrived at 8:30 and you could tell that the employees were in a rush to close down and leave. We had to eat outside because they had all of the chairs up before they closed. We were done ordering and eating by 8:50 or so and by this time the open sign was still on but they wouldn't let my daughter come inside to use the bathroom, And I had even saw that they turned away customers before 9. I would have given them 3 out of 5 because the ice cream was really good, but there was too many things that...

If Heaven came to Earth, this surely would be the place!!! The most authentic and delicious ice cream I've ever tasted. But not only that, we had a heavenly food platter (Charcuterie plate!) that is out of this world. Livia really knows how to pair tastes and how to bring our minds back to growing up in Germany, where we had exquisite food, not just delicious, but also incredibly healthy, usually made from scratch and without chemical additives.

Sweet kiss, where have you been?

I am particularly sensitive to coffee, and only rarely choose to have a store make it. They hit the nail on the head, the first time!

My daughter is also sensitive to higher amounts of sugar, which makes me even more happy that we found Sweet Kiss ice cream which has 40% less sugar and tastes FAR better. The flavors stand out. This is a place where I can safely treat my daughter to ice cream and enjoy the abundance life has to offer!!

What a special day and special blessing!! Everything they do has their heart and...
