Sugar & Spine is our in-house bookstore tucked right inside Bake Me Happy in Madison, North Carolina. It’s the perfect excuse to slow down: browse a few shelves, find your next read, and reward yourself with something sweet (because reading without snacks is just homework).
Whether you’re popping in for a quick pick-me-up or planning to linger with a drink and a chapter, we built Sugar & Spine to feel warm, welcoming, and just a little magical.
A little bookstore joy, right where your cupcake cravings already live.
Popular fiction, romance, thrillers, cozy mysteries, young adult, and giftable favorites — with seasonal picks and staff recommendations.
Grab a cold brew, café au lait, or hot tea and settle in. Books like company. So do cupcakes.
Bookish goodies and small gifts you’ll want to “accidentally” add to your order. (We support healthy impulse decisions.)
Sugar & Spine is located inside our Bake Me Happy storefront at 152 New Market. Shop books while you wait for your treats, or make it a whole moment and stay awhile.
Looking for a book that feels like a warm blanket? Or one that feels like a roller coaster with no seatbelt? Send us a message with what you like (genres, authors, “no spice” / “some spice” / “I’ll clutch my pearls”), and we’ll point you in the right direction.
“Sugar & Spine is where your to-be-read pile meets your sweet tooth.”
