New Sandwich & Sweet Company Coming To Somerset County

BASKING RIDGE, NJ — A new sandwich and sweet shop is opening in Basking Ridge.

Basking Ridge native Caitlin Cunningham is expanding and revamping her Ridge Sweet Shoppe into Ridge Sandwich & Sweet Company at the new location, 31 South Finley Ave., Basking Ridge.

After opening the sweet shop in April 2024, Cunningham began expanding it to include additional menu items last summer. Read More: Ridge Sweet Shop Opens With Taylor Swift-Inspired Dessert Menu

"That required us to completely revamp our menu and entire business design. We have since combined both business ideas into one to establish ourselves as, Ridge Sandwich & Sweet Company," said Cunningham on her Ridge Sweet Shoppe Facebook page.

On March 27, Ridge Sandwich & Sweet Company was approved to open for business.

"We appreciate the patience of our loyal customers during this transition. It has been a long road, but we finally crossed the finish line! It’s been a LONG time coming!!!" said Cunningham on her social page.

The shop is still available for online orders via DoorDash, UberEats and GrubHub to order their staple dessert items that we had available at the Sweet Shoppe.

Cunningham is currently still in the process of putting the finishing touches on the interior setup to include indoor and front porch seating at the new location.

An official grand opening date has not been set yet.

Cunningham also runs The Blue Starfish Creative Arts Center, which opened in June 2022 on West Oak Street.
