For the Love of Sugar, opened in 2010 at 100 Erskine Street in Detroit, was born when founder Manal left her marketing career to pursue her passion for baking. Blending her Middle Eastern roots with creativity, she crafts unique, comforting sweets and edible art that invite everyone to savor her love of sugar.

And when it comes to custom cakes, For the Love of Sugar doesn’t mess around. Weddings, birthdays, anniversaries—you name it, they’ll make a cake that fits the celebration. Each one is crafted with high-quality ingredients and years of baking experience.

In particular, Lovefood praises For the Love of Sugar's Matilda Cake, a rich chocolate cake filled with dark chocolate buttercream that customers rave about.

And it’s not just cakes. You’ll also find pies, cookies, donuts, and coffee, making it easy to grab something sweet even when there’s no big occasion!
