Pokey has been wanting to try my chicken n dumplings for a while now. He stopped by this morning to grab a bowl then reached out for more. The number of bowls he requested is confidential 😆 He tried to use the spoon but wasn't successful. Thanks for the laugh, Pokey! Happy Birthday!

🌸 Southern Charm in Every Bite: Hummingbird Cake & Cupcakes 🌸

Sweet, moist, and full of Southern hospitality — our Hummingbird Cake and Cupcakes are a true taste of tradition. Made with ripe bananas, juicy pineapple, toasted pecans (optional), and finished with a luscious cream cheese frosting, this dessert is as rich in history as it is in flavor.

✨ The History:
Hummingbird Cake has deep Southern roots. It first fluttered onto the scene in the 1970s when it was shared in Southern Living Magazine — and quickly became one of the most requested recipes of all time. Known as a “Doctor Bird Cake” in Jamaica before making its way to the American South, the name is said to come from the island’s national bird, which is drawn to sweet things. From church gatherings to Sunday suppers, this cake became a Southern staple that symbolizes warmth, welcome, and a little tropical flair.

🍰 Whether you enjoy it by the slice or in cupcake form, each bite is a celebration of Southern tradition with a touch of tropical sunshine.

Come taste why the Hummingbird Cake has been treasured for generations — and let it sweeten your day!

✨🍠 Sweet Potato Pie – A True Southern Classic 🥧✨

Warm, spiced, and filled with love – our Sweet Potato Pie is more than just dessert, it’s tradition on a plate.

Originating in the kitchens of the American South, sweet potato pie has roots tracing back to West African cuisine, where yams and sweet potatoes were staples. Enslaved African cooks blended these traditions with European pie-making techniques, creating a dish that became central to Southern holiday tables. Over generations, it has remained a symbol of comfort, family, and celebration.

At Sweet Things by Marcy, our Sweet Potato Pie is baked with a silky filling, just the right touch of spice, and a buttery crust that melts in your mouth. It’s history, heritage, and home—all in one slice.

👉 Order yours today and taste a piece of Southern history.
