Layers of Love at PuddN’
If you’ve spent any time watching dessert trends take off online, you’ve probably noticed that the Upstate is finally getting its own moment in the spotlight. And in Downtown Duncan, the spotlight is squarely on PuddN’ —a pudding bar and dessert shop serving what many locals are calling the best pudding they’ve ever tasted.
Owner Sedrick Posey has built something truly special: a place where nostalgic comfort meets creative flavor, where each dessert is served with heart, and where customers become loyal fans after just one bite.
“It’s not your typical pudding,” Sedrick tells us. “Our storefront is a unique concept that includes a one-of-a-kind experience right here in the Upstate.” The inspiration behind PuddN’ is deeply personal—each jar is rooted in the recipe passed down from Sedrick’s late grandmother. “She’s the reason it’s made with love,” he says. That legacy, paired with Sedrick’s innovation, is what gives PuddN’ its signature tagline: layers of love.
Flavors Worth Talking About
PuddN’ is known for fan favorites like Oreo, Red Velvet, Strawberry Crunch, and their signature banana flavor lovingly called “Nana.” In true holiday spirit, they’re rolling out seasonal creations including Christmas Tree Cake, Pecan Pie, and Sweet Potato Crunch.
And speaking from experience as someone who has personally taste-tested multiple flavors, Sedrick’s current obsession—anything Biscoff—has become my own. I’ve tried both the Biscoff pudding and the Biscoff cheesecake, and they might genuinely be two of the best desserts I have ever had in my life.
Fans across the Upstate echo the same sentiment. One reviewer wrote, “Pudd’N’ is the dessert you never knew you needed… rich, creamy, and absolutely next level.” Another said, “There is a flavor for everyone. Once you try one, you will be hooked.”
More Than Dessert
While the pudding bar is the star attraction, PuddN’ offers far more. Their cozy Duncan storefront hosts a full fresh lunch menu featuring items like their Aloha Chicken Quesadilla, a longtime customer favorite from Sedrick’s previous restaurant, Herb’N Eats.
Guests can also order soups, salads, wraps, weekly grab-and-go meals, and rotating specials such as chicken salad, pasta salad, and even chicken alfredo. As one reviewer put it, “The lunch box is a must try.”
The Pudding Bar Experience
Walking into PuddN’ feels like discovering a neighborhood secret. The space is warm and inviting, tucked right into the heart of Downtown Duncan. Visitors can build their own pudding creations with a wide array of toppings—an experience both kids and adults love. “Get creative with it,” Sedrick says. “That’s the fun part.”
And the community has noticed. Duncan honored PuddN’ with Proclamation Day, One Spartanburg hosted their grand opening, and customers consistently praise the kindness and hospitality of the staff. One reviewer shared, “They were so kind to make us two jars of our favorite flavor when we couldn’t find it anywhere. The customer service is beyond phenomenal.”
Holiday Orders, Events, and More
Whether you’re hosting a holiday party, sending corporate gifts, or planning a family gathering, PuddN’ offers custom sizes, personalized labels, and catering options. They also host birthday parties where guests can create their own pudding jar from start to finish.
And after persevering through setbacks—including pandemic closures, hurricane damage during renovations, and the challenges every small business owner faces—Sedrick says his proudest moment remains simple: “Opening the doors on day one.”
