I got the most beautiful and delicious cake from Buttermilk. I was stunned by the gorgeous cakes they had ready for sale, and got the lemon raspberry cake with macrons on top. It was soooo gorgeous, and tasted as good as it looked! The friend I got it for was so excited and happy. I will definitely get my future cakes from Buttermilk!

Cake looked beautiful! Beautifully decorated but tasted like nothing. Inside cake was dry and tasteless. Very disappointed. Won't go back.

Stopped by with the family for some treats here. I couldn't resist the key lime pie on a stick...Holiday edition. Look at the detail on this masterpiece! This spot smells amazing and the staff is friendly. It's a must stop spot for sure.Kid-friendliness: What kid wouldn't want to be in a dessert shop?

I absolutely love this place. The entire energy of the store is beautiful, and the sweets are so appealing. I got the chocolate peanut butter pretzel pie for a little under $7. When I say I could eat like 3 of these in a row I mean it. I am so used to desserts being wayyy too sweet— this one is so balanced. Its crunchy, soft, sweet, and salty. Nothing in it is too overwhelming or overpowering. Knowing this dessert was so delightful I can’t wait to go back to try out their other desserts.

I was given a strawberry dessert that was in the shape of a piece of pie. Covered with pink frosting and had a popsicle stick at the bottom in the middle. BEYONDDELICIOUS. Best Birthday dessert EVER

I needed 2 last minute birthday cakes for my wife and son. I ordered from their friendly staff in the morning and picked them up the next afternoon. Both cakes were above my expectations in appearance and taste. They make beautiful cakes for a very reasonable price!

I bought a sprinkles cake for my son, a disabled young adult. I was so disappointed. The cake looked great but was dry. Everyone at the party commented on the "dry cake."

Had a macaroon and a peanut butter cookie sandwich, delicious! They have a great selection of not so common greeting cards lol
I love the vibes here and the love the baked goods. My dog loves the pupcakes too!

After a late lunch I Googled bake shops in Newburyport to grab dessert. Buttermilk was around the corner from where we were so off we go. When you walk in, you're immediately greeted by not only delicious looking treats but by staff. They had a wonderful assortment and my only regret was not grabbing one of their incredible looking, mini, pecan pies. I opted for the HUGE cinnamon roll, jumbo molasses cookies, a slice of their banana bread, and their popular - chocolate buttercream cupcake. Before ordering the cupcake, I dared to ask if it's true buttercream vs frost. I've asked at places before and the tend to say buttercream but what you're getting is frosting, which is made from shortening, not butter. The good inclination it's real buttercream is when the cupcakes are in a refrigerator. The shortening versions can stay in a regular showcase. My question was greeted with a smile, a joke, and making sure I knew that the question was not offensive in any way. The two ladies there were awesome. Okay so the cookies were insanely good, and their chocolate buttercream cupcake is one of the BEST I've had in years. Their buttercream frosting was not overly sweet and absolutely delicious, as was the chocolate cupcake under it. I literally inhaled it with a nice cold glass of milk. I let it sit out for 20 minutes before taking the first bite so the buttercream would soften a bit. I'm waiting on my significant other's return home to dive into the remaining treats and will report back. But seriously, after tasting these so far, this bakery's products are outstanding and I can't wait to return to try more of their variety. If you consider yourself a Foodie or a scratch baker, definitely do not miss this hidden gem!

It was a pleasure working with Buttermilk Baking to order a custom gluten-free cake. They did a wonderful job! The design was exactly what we wanted and turned out beautifully. I highly recommend working with them

They have some of the best desserts. One thing that is strange is, it's rarely open. I think they are open only a couple of days per week. So check before you go. Quality is high and the prices match the quality. I once went in for an apple pie for Thanksgiving and was shocked at the price. But the single purchase items are a great splurge. Just checked $39 for a pie. Means I might like it, but certainly won't buy it. I would buy the cookies or some desserts to take to a friends house $30-40. I think they must cater to folks who can't bake to save their lives. A cake is $55. Hard to spend that much. Guess I am not in their demographic.

Awesome staff! I had to get a VERY inappropriate cake for an employees birthday and everyone working was super professional and we all had a good laugh over it. Definitely my new favorite bakery!
Best gluten free chocolate cake we've ever had!
