This small quaint shop is located right in the heart of Medina. Near the Medina square. Just slightly off the main walk by about three stores. I wasn't looking for it by any means. I was just walking around and this place caught my eye. Who wouldn't want cupcakes. I love them. And I can for sure tell you that these cupcakes were delicious. The owner of the shop was extremely friendly. And walked me through the options I had as well. I also bought a cookie that was very large. And tasty. One thing to keep in mind. This shop closes when they sell out. So get here quick before you miss your chance of a delicious cupcake. I will be back next time I am in the area. read more

A Cupcake A Day... - Bakeries Near Me - Medina, Ohio

I am probably closer to 3 stars, but I am giving the benefit of a doubt. It took someone awhile to realize they had a customer in a shop and in the meantime, another employee came in, went to the back, chit-chatted with the person working, and then came back out, and as an afterthought yelled back "hey, someone is out here". The cookies were very cute, but overly sweet. The salted chocolate chip sandwich cookie was not salted at all- I think maybe she gave me something different from what I had asked for. So overall, they were okay, but I hate to say, I've had better local baked goods. I will try to come back again so I can improve my review. read more

Cool little cupcake shop. Pretty small so only two people at a time. Selection of cupcakes is slightly overwhelming but that's a good thing right? Cupcakes were incredible. Eye catching and the combination of flavors made them delicious. Cookies may have been a few days old so don't be tempted. Stick with the cupcakes. read more

I live in CA and my friends recently moved to Medina. I contacted Shawna and asked if she could deliver some baked goods to them. She graciously accepted and delivered to their doorstep today! Thank you for making it happen and bringing my friends some delicious treats! read more

I live out of town & ordered cupcakes for a friend's birthday...the customer service was excellent and the box was delivered within hours of the purchase (even on a short-staffed afternoon). They look delicious - I highly recommend supporting a local business read more

A Cupcake A Day... - a box of cupcakes - Bakeries Near Me - Medina, Ohio

Such a gem to the Medina Square. I love cupcakes, but it can be hard to find a place that has a soft flavorful cake with an icing that isn't overbearing in sweetness. A Cupcake a Day hits the mark for me across the board. The menu changes pretty consistently, but you'll want to try the different flavor combinations available to discover something you never even knew you enjoyed. We discovered our favorite of blackberry frosting on chocolate. The chocolate cake is soft and flavorful (almost a darker chocolate taste) and the blackberry icing has an excellent blackberry flavor that isn't overpowered by butter or sugar. Just an excellent match. Also something to note is they have the basics if you're looking for chocolate or vanilla with the same great taste and quality. If you're looking to try a few but don't want to load up on calories, the minis are a great way to sample around the menu. The staff is also incredibly friendly and accommodating. They were very helpful in our gender reveal in January and made the desserts exactly what we were looking for. If you love cupcakes and are in the Medina area, take the time to make a stop and sample some of these excellent cupcakes. The only regret you'll have is that you didn't get more. read more

The best red velvet cupcake I've had. My husband also tried the chocolate chip chunk cupcake, which he loved! My two sons tried the vanilla minis and they both ate them up, so I'd assume they enjoyed them as well, lol. I will definitely be going back here ASAP. The location is great, Medina square is super cute and fun to walk around. Make sure you check this little cupcake shop out. Great selection too. read more

Great addition to Medina's square. The owner is always friendly. They have a great selection of basic flavors and interesting flavors. If I could get their peanut butter icing recipe that would be great :) read more

A Cupcake A Day was an easy choice since we have been enjoying their cupcakes for many years. We have always loved that they are a small business owned by a couple who has a big heart for their community. Their mini cupcakes were a huge hit at our wedding, especially the chocolate peanut butter! In addition to the many cupcake flavors they crafted, they also baked us a simplistic 8 inch couples cake for cutting and sharing. The cake and cupcakes were a perfect sweet treat for our non-traditional laid-back wedding. read more

After enough bacon-and-cheese laden dogs next door at Dan's, you're sure to need medical attention sooner or later. That is, of course, unless you proactively follow the old adage and stop next door at the new "A Cupcake a Day." If you're accustomed to cupcakes by Duncan or Betty, it's time to head down to the square and see just how delish these treats can be. The west coast has long been swept by $4 cupcakes from the likes of Sprinkles, Sibbey's, and Kara's, and if ACAD is any indication, the craze is about to hit the Midwest. Have no fear, the prices are regionally appropriate: $1.75 for full size, $1 for mini. Here's the 'cake by 'cake: Banana: By far the standout. Sure to be their best seller. The batter is full of fresh bananas (peak behind the counter and into the kitchen and you'll see metro shelving full of them.) Delicious banana infused cream cheese frosting. Red velvet: The key to any RV is the cream cheese frosting, and this does not disappoint. The cake is respectable but nothing to write home about. Chocolate: Nice and moist, not too sweet. Very pleasant! Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip: Too sweet for some in our party. This is basically the cupcake equivalent of those cookies you make with peanut butter and sugar dough and a Hershey's kiss on top. The soft opening was yesterday (12/26/2011), the grand opening is 01/07/2012. Considering we visited on their second day baking, the future looks bright for A Cupcake a Day. Now that you finally have one, support your local cupcakery! read more

I've been to A Cupcake A Day twice now and I'm not really sure how to review it! The shop itself is adorable. The woman who "helped" me on the first trip was pretty impatient and made me feel like I was an inconvenience. When faced with an entire display of cupcakes, sometimes it takes a while to choose only a few! I ordered six cupcakes for everyone at home to share and my family was a little underwhelmed, claiming the frosting was too sweet and the cakes themselves were dry. I like to try places more than once, so I stopped in again today to pick up a single cupcake for myself. The young woman who helped me this time (not the same person as the first time) was very pleasant and chatty. I think she may be the owner/baker, and she was personable. Again, there were dozens of flavors to choose from, but after a pretty hefty dose of doughnuts earlier this week, I knew I could only treat myself to one! The flavors ranged from cookies and cream to Cadbury creme egg to peanut butter and beyond. The selection was really impressive and I loved the variety. I chose the strawberry orange (strawberry orange cupcake with orange frosting and a slice of strawberry on the top). I have mixed feelings. On one hand, who doesn't love a cupcake? On the other hand, the cake was denser than I would have liked, almost like a cranberry orange muffin or bread as opposed to a cupcake. The frosting had a great orange flavor, but yes, was a bit too sweet. I know, I know...it's frosting. It's supposed to be sweet. I just like mine a little less sweet! I really liked the flavor of everything, just not necessarily the sweetness level and cake texture. I'm not sure if all of the cupcakes are made fresh daily...if so, hats off to the baker, because that's a huge undertaking. The cakes are in a refrigerated case, so it's hard to tell how fresh they are, and that may also impact the texture. I don't want this review to deter anyone from stopping by A Cupcake A Day. I definitely think it's worth checking out because we all have different tastes and I think it's important to support small, local businesses. I wouldn't hesitate to try it again and sample a few flavors I haven't tried. Check it out, this may just be your new favorite cupcake shop! read more

Cute lil place my daughter LOVES. Girl working (whom I believe was the owner) was super nice and chatty. Really cool and different flavors. They even have a Christmas Ale one! Glad to see they support other local businesses. Blackout Stout flavored one possibly?! Store looks modern but not too hip and stuffy. Prices are good. I also like that they have teeny, tiny ones. Better to try more flavors than the big honkin ones and kids dont need the big honkin ones. These little ones are the perfect size. This is on my go-to list of places to hit when we make the drive down to Medina. Love it! Here is a cupcake poem I "borrowed" from Corrine: artichoke cupcake maybe i'm an acquired taste maybe i'm like an artichoke cupcake maybe you learn to like me maybe you don't maybe i try too hard maybe i don't maybe it's not me this time maybe you only like cupcake maybe you only like artichoke maybe one day there will be someone who likes both Only thing I feel is stopping it from being a 5 star cupcake explosion is that they dont always seem super fresh like they were made days in advance and refigerated. Freshness is key when it comes to being a cupcake ninja... read more

Since my preferred cupcake store closed, I have gone back to this shop twice. Cake was dense and a little dry. Cake was also flavorless. If I buy a lemon cupcake, I think the cake should taste lemony? Very disappointed in the appearance of the cupcakes I bought on the second trip. Frosting was sloppy and didn't cover the top of the cake. On one, it appeared to have slid off of the top as it was mostly on one side of the cupcake. Variety has improved. Maybe the owner was having a bad day.... Frosting was the best part flavor wise. read more

A Cupcake A Day... - Not pretty - Bakeries Near Me - Medina, Ohio

Craving something sweet, I noticed this cute little cupcake place. For being so tiny, they had a variety of cupcake options. They had normal sized cupcakes, mini cupcakes, and a couple other baked goods. The flavors were a good range from birthday cake, coconut lemon, to peanut butter chocolate. I got four of the mini cupcakes which were priced at $1.10 per cup cake. The cupcakes were pretty tasty. My only complaint is that the cakes were slightly dry. The frostings were very good. One of the ones I got, Salted Caramel, didn't taste like either of those. It tasted like chocolate. Also, it was half the size of the others and very wet. The worker was very friendly. I would come back for the mini cupcakes because they are a good size. I'd hope the cake parts wouldn't be so dry next time. read more

The peanut butter icing is amazing, I highly recommend the chubby hubby. They also have the best sugar cookies, hands down the best. Sometimes they have fun Canadian specialties. read more

I purchased 6 cup cakes and all were very dry and and not worth the price. No one ate a complete cup cake and most suggested that that they were frozen. I would not recommend this place. Cakes are terrible. read more

Remember that cupcake place on the square I've been stalking since November? It's open now! It actually opened the day after Christmas, and today was my day to drool on the inside of the building, instead of the inside of my car as I drive by. Let me just say, the wait was worth it. Shawna Rollheiser has already put the other cupcake vendors in town to shame. That's right, I said it. I'm no cupcake connoisseur, but I do know what I like, and Shawna has it. Cute little storefront next door to a gourmet hot dog joint, which is next door to a coffeeshop. It's practically perfect. And the cupcakes themselves? Love at first bite! I'm thinking 2012 is going to be a sweet year. read more

A Cupcake a Day is a small locally owned bakery on the square in Medina. The storefront is adorable, and the owner changes the front window display monthly.The cupcakes are reasonably priced for a specialty cupcake bakery at $1.75 a piece, which is 75 cents cheaper than the competing bakery on the other side of the square.They also feature mini cupcakes at a buck a piece or a bakers dozen for $12, which my co-workers are now lucky enough to find in the break room at least once a week. There is a variety of at least a dozen flavors to choose from, usually more. The owner continues baking as the cupcakes run out throughout the day, so theyre always fresh. Also on the menu are vegan cupcakes ($2.50) every Friday and Saturday, and every Friday is Gluten Free Friday, where a few flavors of gluten free cupcakes are offered in four packs. For an occasional treat, there are Nanaimo bars, which are a little piece of heaven hailing from Canada- a layer bar with a graham cracker crust, a vanilla custard flavored light butter icing, and covered with chocolate ganache. Pupcakes, a k-9 friendly mini cupcake, make an appaerance a few times a month. Favorite flavors of mine include the vegan chocolate which features raspberry frosting topped with a fresh raspberry, Chocolate Decadent Delight, a chocolate cupcake with a chocolate ganache center, peanut butter frosting and a pretzel caramel topping. In March, there was an Irish Car Bomb cupcake to live for- chocolate Guiness cupcake with an Irish whiskey chocolate ganache center topped with Baileys Irish Cream buttercream frosting. Love, love, love this place! Stop in for a cupcake, you'll leave with a smile and a six pack of heaven in a box. *** be prepared to parallel park, its on the square and parking is limited- but its totally worth it! read more

Stopped here for the cupcake crawl only to find out they were closed for a private event. We drove an hour away just for their cupcake and posted on the front door was the closed sign. So disappointed, if you plan to run a business and are participating in two events at once you should probably plan on having coverage with employees for both. read more

Delicious cupcakes. Many varieties, very fresh. Cute storefront. I would definitely go back. read more

So the mini cupcakes are a must have! They're only a dollar apiece so you can sample a bunch totally guilt free. They have a ton of fun, seasonal flavors, as well as year round favorites. I got Christmas Ale--super cinnamony and not too sweet. The only caveat here is that the icing is not super fluffy and somehow tastes cookie dough like? read more

Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. We headed over here after a night at Sullys. And it was a tough 12 steps away! The shop itself was a cool little place with a cozy vibe. Then you see them. The cakes. The display has all the cupcakes just sitting there waiting to be devoured, and I was just the man for the job. We got a half dozen with flavors such as Cleveland Whiskey, snickerdoddle, caramel macchiato, and Skor. Just to name a few. The frosting was perfect on each. Not too sweet or buttery. And the cupcakes were (censored M word). I know some people hate that word! The flavors were rich and you could really taste the nuances. This little place is legit and a great Medina small business. Support them and your sweet tooth! read more

Don't bother going anywhere else. Just. Don't. Get here now. Delicious cupcakes and the flavors are amazing. Huge selection everyday. And such creative combinations you can't resist. All time classic favorite is coconut cream but Buffalo Chicken Wing? Yes, they went there and its superb. Great ambiance in the shop. Good place to have some coffee, eat some sweets, and catch up with friends and family. Such a gem in downtown Medina. read more

I am not a sweets kind of person, let alone cupcakes. But I find myself coming back for these tasty treats time and time again. Staff is always friendly, could chat the time away in the rare chance there is a break in customers. And not a fan of chocolate or vanilla you say -- how about one of the other 300 flavors throughout the year. Point being, this place is top of the line -- excellent! Make a stop about once a month into Medina and pick some up for the family... usually getting asked when the next stop is happening. read more

I tried one regular size cupcake, the Irish Car Bomb, and it was wonderful. I also got two mini cupcakes, a caramel one and something else. They were on the dry side and lackluster. The other in my party had the Red Velvet and she said it was extremely dry and hated it. She too had two mini cupcakes and said only one was okay. She didn't like the place at all, but my big cupcake was delightful. I liked the cupcake it the selection here better than Campbells up at the Westside Market. read more

These cupcakes are the best I've ever had. A Cupcake A Day offers so many unique flavors and their prices are reasonable. Make sure you stop here if you're in the area, you will love them! read more

Not that great but not bad. They have a lot of great flavors to choose from and I appreciate that creativity. However both cupcakes were on the dry side. They had good flavor and they looked perfect. Just not really hitting the mark, even my 6 year old said they were "okay". read more

Delicious Christmas Eve desert from A Cupcake A Day!! So moist and rich without the sweetness being over the top. I'd be happy to eat more of their confections in the future. Merry Christmas!! read more

I'm not really a cupcake person, though I'll oblige friends by visiting cupcake shops from time to time. But ever since my first visit A Cupcake a Day, I find myself daydreaming about their amazing cupcakes every week! It's difficult for me to find the perfect cupcake that is both fluffy and moist with the perfect amount of frosting that's both rich and light. A Cupcake a Day gets all of these qualities right on point! I live in Canton, and have been known to make the drive up to Medina just to get a box the best darn cupcakes around. My all-time favorite flavors are: chocolate peanut butter cookies & cream red velvet coconut turtle Seriously yummy! And the decor is nice, too. Nice addition to the square in Medina, for sure! read more

I stopped here today after shopping around the square and i loved it! Coffee was really good and i also picked up the dirt cupcake and it was a chocolate lovers dream the flavors were perfect and cake was moist not dry. I would go back again read more

I want to eat one of those cupcakes everyday! I have been checking out the menu they update daily on Facebook and finally was able to actual get in to try them today! I had red velvet and it was amazing! It was moist and the frosting was so goo! I am not one for frosting but this frosting was light and fluffy and not too sweet! My son crushed an almond mini cupcake and the others that went with me had a chocolate and the Irish car bomb! There was not a crumb left over from any of them! The mini cupcakes are only $1 and the regular size are $1.75. Will definitely be going back soon! read more

So many flavors, so little time! This little shop on the square has the most decadent cupcakes in Ohio! My favorite flavor has to be anything with raspberry frosting. I have met the owner and she knows how to keep a warm and wonderful presence in the community as well. A real gem and worth the stop every time. read more

Our favorite cupcake/treat shop! The customer service and treats are equally fantastic. It's always a spot I bring our out of town friends and family when they come to visit. read more

This place has become my "go-to" for all small parties! Unlike other cupcake store, they are open great hours, so you do not have to force yourself out of bed to get cupcakes for a dinner party. Now saying that, please don't think they have all their flavors avaliable all the time, they do sell out. I really like that they post the flavors of the day on their facebook page, so I know when they are baking my favorite flavors! The shop also takes speciality orders by the dozen. I have not done this yet mostly because I like to offer my guest a selection of flavors. The major thing that gives this place 5-stars, is the mini cupcakes! My child LOVES these cupcakes, but I cannot justify giving a 18 month old a whole cupcake. The mini cupcakes are just her size, plus I don't fell too bad about them. read more

They are AMAZING!!! Shawna did such a good job with our wedding! I got as many compliments on how good they tasted as I did on my dress! Very affordable too. The flavors are amazing, she was beyond easy to work with, and I am so very happy I picked them! And stopping in there all the time for goodies became a fixture for the bridal party : ) You will not regret going there, whether its for a random treat on a Tuesday or the biggest day of your life. Thanks Shawna!!! read more
