Our Story

In 2012, Rachael Holmes gave Petite Sweets its beginnings in a local coffee shop called Java Rush. Rachael began selling mini cupcakes in-store and created beautiful custom cakes for friends and family. As word spread and business grew, Rachael branched out and secured her own commercial kitchen space in 2014. In her new facility she was able to bake cakes and special desserts for custom orders, but she wasn’t able to sell daily sweets to the public. This all changed in the spring of 2015 when Petite Sweets opened their first official store-front location. The business continued to grow, and they moved into a larger building in 2016. As the staff continued to grow and the orders kept coming, Rachael knew they needed to expand again, and she was fortunate to purchase the suite next to their pre-existing storefront. In 2020, Petite Sweets doubled their kitchen size and added office space to better serve customers like you!

As we serve the Tri-Cities and surrounding areas, we strive to provide unparalleled products and experiences! Everything we have is because of our loyal customers, and we see customer satisfaction as our primary goal! Thank you for your support of Petite Sweets!
