Hello my name is Cuinn I’m fairly new to pipe smoking. I’m looking for a tobacco that isn’t going to break the bank, and is on the sweeter side. I’ve tried some paladin black cherry and it is alright but not exactly what I’m looking for. I’m looking for something a bit sweeter. Any recommendations?

I’m not sure what you are looking for but Sutliff has lots of different flavors aromatics , you might find something that interests you , I smoke only virginias , Sutliff does have a sweet Virginia #707
Yeah I'll second Sutliff as a good springboard. Less goopy and cloying than Lane's offerings IMHO. 1M is a staple favorite of mine in the aromatic genre.
I'll recommend sutliff as well as Peter Stokkebye. Both have good aromatics.
For aromatics Boswell would be a good choice. Pipers Pleasure as well as Sweet And Mild. Seven Seas Black by MacBaren and C&D Autumn Evening.

There's different kinds of sweet. Depends whether you like cherry sweet, almond sweet, vanilla, etc.
Personally I don't like vanilla in any guise. I like sour cherry blends like Exclusive BC, but find some of the sweet cherries too artificial, like sucking sweets. A better sweet one, to my palete is Borkam Riff Ruby.
You just have to experiment to find out what suits you. The trouble with sweetly cased aros is they tend to ghost a pipe, so when trying something different if you've only got the one pipe it pays to give it a good clean with alcohol between different blends.
Another to try is Petersons Killarney, which is a whisky sweet virginia and black cavendish, or Petersons Sunset Breeze, which is almond amaretto. I like both of those as they have a natural rather than artificial sweetness. Sunset Breeze is really nice actually, but you need to dedicate a pipe to it or everything will taste of biscuits soaked in Disaranno.
Don't know so much about Sutliff as I'm in the UK and it's only just started to appear on the market here.

If you liked the Paladin Black Cherry but want something a bit sweeter, try Mac Barens Red Ambrosia. It's mostly a cherry aromatic but they add a bit of rum to it as well. It's sweeter than Paladin and offers a bit if complexity for a cherry aromatic, it's quite good.
Other than cherry, Lanes 1Q or RPK 6 is a great choice available nearly everywhere. They are the bulk equivalents of Captain Blacks Royal and White.

I just got in my order of molto doce and I love it no bite at all and it’s sweet enough without being overpowering. Thanks for recommending it
I'll recommend Three Star Blue.
Burns pretty well, believe it's flavored with amaretto.
I also add another recc to the Sutliff pile.
