Our Story

Part 1

Sweet To Lick is a place built Vegan from the start. In 2000 Michael (your baker) met a dope vegan lady. They went out and found very little vegan food and even fewer good vegan desserts. Our humble baker thought "I can do better then this, how hard could it be." Well, in 2010 he finally figured out the best chocolate chip cookies since time vegan. If your counting thats ten years of bad food she was subjected to (sorry Kathee). In 2011 we did our first farmers market, expanding the menu week by week. In August of 2013 we opened a real deal bakery. Continuing to expand our offerings to include a #VeganLunch so awesome carnivores can't say no. For the coffee lover we keep it simple. Our Long Island roasted coffee is always organic and fresh ground. If tea is your bag, our tea menu full of some great blends and a few puns. On #SundaySconeday we have fresh baked scones, come early as these killers sell out. Check out our new fully Gluten Free Deli and market. Whether its the spectacular rainbow cookie bar the best gluten free cookie since time vegan, or our world famous ginger ale crumb cake, we have something sweet for everybody, we’ve even gone fully gluten free.       

From now to infinity we are #VeganAllDay.

Part 2

Your intrepid baker was tired and could not continue. As he locked the door to 78Hillside for the last time a single tear lifted off his chubby cheek into the wind. Goodbye he thought. But like a phenix rising from the ashes of many burnt cookies he rises. 70 pound lighter, smiling and ready to take on some new challenges. Cold Plunging and Saunas his passion now he opens The Recovery Shop in Lake Grove. Dope vibes and good health is the order of the day. Content with his efforts he sits back and proudly watches his new customers creating a community around the space he created, again…

What’s this? What is that nagging feeling in his gut, like he left the stove on. Is Keven home alone again? Is he feeling like he left something unfinished? Maybe he left his friends without the goodies he loved to see them enjoy? But its too late for all that… isn’t it?

Part 3

Here we are October 2023 and our hero is ready to bring back some of the awesomeness you loved him for. You are missed, you are loved and your baker is here for you once again. Starting with a Thanksgiving box and now a weekly and monthly drops. Cookies, blondies, scones and whatever else he comes up with will get stuffed in a box and shipped or kept in our super secret Lake Grove speakeasy pick-up space. Love you folks
