Great baked items. Both savory and sweet. My son enjoyed the vanilla cup cake and my wife and I had the raspberry shortbread, rhubarb Pop tart, and mozzarella/tomato gallette. Everything was fresh and perfectly baked. They have a decent looking bar as well but I'm not much of a drinker. Really great design and layout for the place. The staff is so friendly and helpful. My son enjoyed hanging out and eating at the bakery. Very spacious and well laid out.
Update: So I just wanted to give an update on this cake and change my review from 3 to 4 stars. It taste better the next day because it had time to sit out of the Fridge. The buttercream tasted hard and heavy the previous day because it must have been in the fridge overnight until I picked it up the next day. It is best to pick up the cake the day before you need it.
So I have gotten birthday cakes from here a couple of times before but this last one missed the mark. It’s a buttercream frosting but it tastes more like regular icing. The icing is also very heavy and their is more icing than actually cake. The presentation was good but it does not make up for the underwhelming taste. The price has also gone up about $20 since I last purchased a cake here in 2020 but that’s expected, like everything else.
I had been meaning to come here for a while, and now that I finally tried Sin I’m kicking myself for waiting so long. I got a maple latte and a raspberry scone, and both were incredible. The scone was so light and fluffy it blew my mind. Really cool interior, you can see some of the fancy decorative cakes they’ve made displayed above the entryway. Look forward to coming back often!
Stoped by with my sister for some after dinner dessert and drinks - We we’re celebrating her birthday. The place was great and really laid back. They were playing music from the 90’s-2000’s, it had the majority of us singing along - the drinks helped with that. The deserts were Sinfully delicious. I love the fact they recommend drinks to be paired with each desert. I ordered Lust (Espresso cake)and it was severed with a Japanese coffey negroni (Japanese whisky, creme de cocoa, espresso infused dry vermouth) - the perfect pair. The drink really helped to cut though the sweetness of the cake. I also tired a cookie (cowboy cookie I think) - holy s**t I almost bought the entire cookie jar. We both absolutely loved this place. Can’t wait to visit again.
A little on the expensive side for most budgets of dessert and drink... But that being said.. it's worth every bit. The mixologist is a skilled artist whose creations are paired with an equally delectable dessert. A favorite spot of mine in Rhode Island, if not the Northeast.
Had the best latte and cake at Sin. The staff are friendly, and there is both a serene and yet energetic vibe at the place. Absolutely love this bakery cafe. Can’t wait to go back.
Recognizing that rich, heavy food can leave you quite full, seeing many late night / dessert bars go to waste at the tail end of a reception, we opted towards mini cupcakes for our friends and family at our wedding and Sin Desserts did not disappoint.
An opportunity beforehand with a few of our friends to sample, we easily made a diverse selection of 4 mini cupcakes, showcasing the culinary sweetness of Rhode Island while incorporating the season (between Summer and Autumn in our case). So impressed, we also used Sin Desserts for our wedding cake.
Providing our wedding colors and design examples beforehand, making both cake, filling and frosting selections, Sin created for us a beautiful, simple, one-tier cake to stand atop the multiple levels of cupcakes. Set up and delivery at our venue, working in tandem with our caterer, Sin did an awesome job.
Nearly all the cupcakes consumed, some of our guests clearly taking multiples of just one flavor, we were given rave reviews for both flavor and texture. Our simple cake, outstandingly decadent, so much so that while we got our one slice to enjoy together, our guests obliterated the rest.
Not looking to overwhelm but rather make a statement, Sin Desserts is the way to go.

Sin recently made the desserts for my wedding and they were absolutely delicious! Sin was extremely easy to work with and I can’t wait to try more desserts in the future.
We hired Sin Desserts for our Newport wedding and were SO glad we did! I had a 3-tiered vegan wedding cake. It was so good that I broke tradition and got into our leftovers post-wedding way in advance of our 1-year anniversary (oops!). I chose vegan chocolate cake with a delicious cookies and cream filling and vanilla frosting. My husband is not vegan so I decided to surprise him with a groom's cake designed like the Star Wars Millennium Falcon; it was banana cake and peanut butter frosting (his favorite flavors). He absolutely loved it! Finally we added a third cake (it's my favorite food so why not?...) chocolate, raspberry-filled birthday cake to honor my grandmother on her birthday the same day as our wedding. We got to do our tasting with full-sized cupcakes months in advance to try a number of flavor combinations. For a vegan / non-vegan duo they were very accommodating for satisfying our cake wishes and I was so happy that my tiered cake could be done vegan in a way that most guests wouldn't even know, but meant I got to do the cake cutting and actually eat it!
One of my best friends has a severe egg allergy, and Sin made us a strawberry champagne cake that was egg free!! You couldn't tell at all that it wasn't a normal cake, and they did an amazing job on the decorations. We asked for them to write happy birthday in Russian and Mandarin, which is no easy feat, and it came out beautifully. I highly recommend Sin for custom cakes at a fair price!!
