WARWICK — Public officials and representatives from Warwick’s business community joined Abigail Stever and Melissa Schultz last Friday for the official grand opening of Eat Sweet Bakery at the South Street entrance to 28 Railroad Ave.

The new bakery is the second retail outlet for the owners, who currently operate a retail bakery at 792 County Route 1 in Pine Island.

Eat Sweet Bakery products have also been a favorite at local farmers’ markets and festivals.

Stever and Schultz are best friends who have been baking for 20 years. They met as teenagers when they were baking for the Runcible Bakery in Nyack, where they grew up.

“It was our collective passion for baking and love of art along with our strong friendship that inspired us to start Eat Sweet 15 years later,” said Stever. “With lots of hard work and help from our amazing friends and families we’ve been able to build a kitchen, open two bakeshops and make our childhood dreams into a reality.”

Their handcrafted baked goods include cakes, classic cookies, truffles, linzer cookies, mini linzer tarts, shortbread, sugar cookies, French macaroons, cake pops, brownies, blondies and custom designed cookies, cupcakes and treats for any occasion. Stever and Schultz will also fill special orders for holidays, weddings and other occasions.

“All of our baked goods,” said Stever, “are hand crafted from simple high quality ingredients. Most importantly our products are made with love and attention to detail.”
