We first discovered The Ugly Carrot at a neighborhood vendor event in Shearwater, and after trying the cinnamon rolls and bread, we knew we had to order more! A few weeks later, we placed our first order and tried even more goodies, including the strawberry sweet rolls and dinner rolls. Everything was absolutely incredible! Fresh, delicious, generously portioned, and so fairly priced for the quality. We’re so happy to have found such a wonderful local bakery and will definitely be back for more!

I have special request and certain likes and she knocks it out of the park every time! We love love love her cinnamon rolls

I couldn't decide what I wanted so I ordered so many things - pecan rolls, cinnamon buns, cookies, brownies, strawberry cake, dinner rolls. Everything was amazing! My mom is an baker and was in love with it all. MJ was also amazing, she worked around my schedule, froze the rolls for me to travel with and was outside waiting for me since I was in a hurry! She even gave my kids some strawberry chex mix that they ate instantly. Highly recommend everything!

I was tempted so many times to buy something from the Ugly Carrot bakery. Trying to have some willpower, but I finally gave in when I saw the cute little goodies for Valentine’s Day. I happened to be having a party and decided to add some of these treats to my dessert tray. I was so glad that I did. They were so fresh and tasty and we couldn’t stop eating them Marley loved her doggy treats as well. We are happy customers over here!

Everything this woman makes is a homerun! I first fell in love with her sourdough focaccia and olive oil dip. I have since tried several more items and loved every.single.one!! MJ is such a naturally talented baker and takes such pride in making beautifully presented baked goods that are delicious! Everything she makes is so beautifully prepared and somehow tastes even better! I recently brought her King Cake to an event where some friends who are native to Louisiana could not stop raving about her King Cake- which is the biggest compliment! Baking is such an art, and MJ is a true ARTIST at her craft! I will never stop raving about The Ugly Carrot- their baked goods are a hit at every single event!! I am so impressed every single time I get the privilege to eat something from this wonderful bakery and amazing owner!❤️❤️

MJ made an amazing King Cake that had so much delicious flavor. It was the perfect amount of flakey while still being soft. The king cake was beautifully decorated for Mardi Gras my kids loved the mask and beads on top! We will definitely be back to the Ugly Carrot to try all the baked goodies!

Some of the best sourdough I’ve had!

The rosemary olive loaf was delicious!

Purchased a japaleno loaf. And cinnamon rolls. Both are great. Highly recommend. Will purchase again.

I highly recommend The Ugly Carrot! She was quick to respond and incredibly helpful throughout the process. The sourdough was amazing. I ordered several loaves as gifts, and they came beautifully wrapped with clear instructions. I will absolutely be ordering from her again!

The bread and cookies we purchased were delicious. Also got garlic salt!!! You won’t regret this purchase… yummmy!!

The baked goodies along with her handmade items are very good. Very well made! You can tell all the love she puts into every bite! Keeps me coming back for re orders!
