At Sweet Caribou, we use the highest quality ingredients, make everything from scratch, and cook in small batches to create extraordinary desserts. Sweet Caribou + your special event = premium dessert experience.

I came across this place at the state fair, so I didn't have free reign to comb through their whole menu. Their claim of "Alaska sized flavor" is very accurate. All the macarons I tried had very strong, distinct flavors, as advertised, and they were very soft and delicate. Birthday cake is supposedly a fan favorite, and was one of my favorites as well. However, red velvet was my winner from the box. Not a single macaron was sub-par; I enjoyed all. I saw multiple flavors here I've never seen at other French bakeries, so they get creativity points. Super cool folks were working the booth too. I would definitely go out of my way to check out their store next time.
Hands down, one of my favorite places to eat! Some of the salads are second to none, such as the kale and quinoa and also the beat salad! My favorite two, so stuck on them it’s hard to try anything else. However; recently I’ve been trying their sandwiches and I do say, they are exceptional! Had the pastrami one day, and the smoked turkey another! All meals come with a sweet treat macaroon and bottled water. Great deal, and all very uplifting and healthy.
Sweet Caribou has the best Macaroons ever!! Soooo bomb!! And there salads are to die for as well. My favorite is the Cordova Keto Cobb which is available the 2nd week of the month. There food is ALWAYS super fresh and consistent. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great fresh lunch or to please there sweet tooth.
My fruity pebbles ice cream macaron was just amazing. Everything I tried was so good. They also have cupcakes and a variety of sweets. The carrot cake cupcake was the best I’ve ever had!! My salad was delicious. All of the macaron flavors were great, we can’t wait to come back on our next visit to anchorage!
Instead of a birthday cake that no one ever wants to eat, I decided to do a macaron tower from Sweet Caribou and boy was that a hit! Not only that, the customer service was outstanding and everyone really made me feel my business was important to them. You can also tell how passionate they are about their macarons and other culinary offerings. That kind of pride translates into an all around amazing experience from order to bite after yummy bite! I'm definitely forgoing a cake from now on and just using Sweet Caribou as my provider of sweets and treats!
The salads are good but would be even better with more vegetarian or vegan options to choose from. Also, I would like to see more environmentally friendly ways of serving meals when customers don't use take out. When dining in even the salads are served in plastic bowls and plastic water bottles were handed out versus reusable bowls and glasses.
Wife ordered a delicious sandwich which of course I sampled and I ordered a butterscotch cupcake which was one of the best I've had. Extremely clean and upscale facility as well. I guess I'll never get used to AK prices...that's the only reason not a 5.
2021- update I love the store front expansion that they’ve done this year. Today I drove Just to come here and grab some Macarons. I love the cookies and cream, Fred Flintstone, red velvet, marshmallow chocolate, almond joy, birthday cake, root beer float, peanut butter and jelly, bananas Foster, rose lychee, Blood orange, maple bacon, Earl Grey, strawberry lemonade, & chocolate mint. They do have seasonal/holiday flavors, i wont them all but My favorites are: Pumpkin cheesecake, strawberry rhubarb, Neapolitan, ginger bread eggnog, peppermint bark, & chocolate covered strawberry. I really enjoy when I get to see the owner inside the shop he’s often doing deliveries but during lunch rush you can sometimes see him in there. He’s such a nice guy I really like him and his staff are always very friendly fast and knowledgeable. Which is why I will always come back. Often my family will give me for Mother’s Day or my birthday a gift card to go to Sweet Caribou or they pick up my favorite because they know what I like to come so many times. OK novel over 2019- The best. Amazing. Great price. Desserts for everyone i love the blondie cupcake. But my Fav is macaroons i have gotten them from all of their past pop up stands such as: Sears mall, Saturday market, the state fair and now their own store front. They have come alo g way. They do custom orders and the owner is such a friendly guy. Worth the hour drive from valley just to go their.
A one stop shop for a delicious meal, drinks, and dessert! One of my very favorite places in Anchorage, AK.
Sweet Caribou had been highly recommended to me by friends and I can now see why! The staff was very friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back soon!
