I stumbled across this place by chance, I was looking for cupcakes for my girlfriends birthday…read more Being her first time trying cupcakes I wanted it to be a little special so I asked the cupcake family could they design Chanel cupcakes, which they happily did and the results were terrific. She was very happy when she seen them. The staff in the shop were very helpful and accommodating. For 4 small cupcakes it cost $18 dollars and were ready fresh made after 1 day. Which I felt was a bargain. The taste was as good as the design!! So if your looking for a birthday cake or cupcake designs for a special occasion or just for any old reason for a cupcake, drop in here!!

First let me say, I didn't have a cupcake. I only tried their macarons. Yeah, it does seem a bit…read morestrange that I would go into a cupcake shop and only purchase macaroons, but they are a big part of the Cupcake Family store. The black sesame macaroon had no real flavour of black sesame. It was quite unfortunate, but the macroon still had that thin crisp layer that cracks to reveal a chewier sweet center. The deluxe strawberry cheesecake however did have various flavours running through it that gave it a cheesy, sweet cheesecake experience. It was even rolled in cookie crumbs for that extra bit of authenticity. Plus the strawberry layer was packed with strawberry goodness. The mini cupcakes do look very cute, and they have some interesting flavours available. So would I come back? Yep, and I'd try another deluxe macarons or perhaps a Rose Pistachio cupcake. Mmm, I haven't been able to stop thinking about that one.

Don't order from here - Terrible service - Didn't deliver it to the right address and still charged…read moreme. I ordered cupcakes online from Little Cupcakes in Melbourne (05/10/2020) to be delivered to my friend as a surprise on her birthday (10/10/2022) at 11.30am. I paid a $25 priority delivery fee in addition to the cost of the cupcakes to ensure it reached her. I originally supplied her work address for delivery but then emailed them (07/10/2022) to change it to her home address. The company's T&Cs state any changes to delivery need 7 days' notice, so I asked if this change was ok. They sent me an email that same day confirming the new delivery address. Day of the delivery (10/10/2022) and I didn't hear anything. I email them at 1.26pm asking if they had been delivered. I was told that the logistics manager didn't have the order and was asked if I wanted it delivered on (12/10/2022) instead, or if I wanted a refund. I opted for the refund as it would not be there on my friend's birthday, so defeated the purpose. They then emailed me at 4.18pm saying that whoops, it was actually delivered, but to the work address. I confirmed that I still wanted a refund as my friend wouldn't be in the office until the end of the week so the cupcakes wouldn't be any good. After ringing someone at that office, not me, they said that they would offer a $10 credit for my next order rather than a refund, to which I said no. They then said (12/10/2022) they would just refund the $25 priority fee. Still not good enough. They then said that they would only give me a full refund if the cupcakes could be picked up fully intact two days after being delivered to an office work fridge - absolutely ridiculous! This is probably the first review I have written in over 10 years. It's not something I do. But I thought it was worth letting people know how bad their service is. Do yourself a favour, order cupcakes elsewhere.

Service: Terrific! Like I said, the girl working there was kind enough to give me a second cupcake for the same price since they were closing and needed to get rid of all the cupcakes for the day. Cupcakes: I got a small red velvet cupcake and it honestly wasn't too amazing - I've had much better and there wasn't enough of the cocoa-buttery taste to it. But then again, red velvet isn't really native to Australia so I hope when it takes over more people start to make it better. --- Overall, the cupcakes were alright - much better than The Cupcake Bakery over at Melbourne Central. However, it is VERY overpriced. You could fit 1 of the cupcakes easily in your mouth - they're bite-sized... for 2.20. That doesn't seem like a deal to me. Thankfully I got that extra cupcake otherwise I would've been really upset about getting ripped off.

Perhaps that's too strong a word. It's not really a restaurant, more of a cafe. But cupcakes and doom. The amazingly tantalizing taste of doom that can only come from slightly overpriced but elegantly decorated sugary treats of eye watering proportions. What's even better is the wonderful crew here also take classes in Cupcake Baking & Decorating! They consider it a Masterclass, which after sampling the goodies they have on offer here I would have to agree. They can make you into a cupcake aficionado in no time! While the classroom isn't here itself, you can sign up for them in store or online. The cafe is remarkably small for the amount of people that seem to flow i and out of it, all smile and eyes glazed over on some sort of sugar cloud. I've been told they open early for coffee but the cupcakes aren't actually on offer until 9am. Brace yourself

A big - I won't be back…read more.. I live and work in the area and have gone a couple of times. I have to say on all occasions that my service has been very up and down, lack of consistency drives me crazy. However today I went to get cupcakes for myself and work colleagues and waited, and waited while others were served before me - EVEN though they came in after! The girl serving had seen me, asked me if I was ok which I said no. Maybe she didn't hear me but her lack of enthusiasm wasn't comforting either. Basically I walked out cupcakeless to a girl making coffee going "sorry!". Yes, you will be. I won't be back - at all. Note, please don't have staff work who look sick and unenthusiastic either... it's still food handling and I'm kinda glad that your staff missed me now. I also agree with other reviewers about the paper bagging, if I'm paying $4 for a cupcake, I don't want the icing on the bag when I remove it.

I was in Melbourne for the weekend and felt my sweet tooth tingling so I ventured here after a lunch with friends and I was so glad I discovered it. Not only are all cupcakes vegan - they even have gluten-free ones (for us non-gluten inclined). They had a range of different flavours and (don't judge) I took a box home - I just had to try as many as possible. If you also need something sweet on the cheap, they have 'yesterday's cupcakes' on the bottom shelf for about $2. Such a bargain. The staff are super friendly - so that's an added bonus!

She could not find anything that looked beautiful and tasted fabulous. Not a single cupcake could be found, so, Monique decided to start baking her own... After the creation of the website we started to receive many enquiries that ranged from weddings, milestone birthdays, religious occasions right through to the classic morning tea. During this time Monique also started to sell at farmers markets. This was invaluable in getting face-to-face feedback from customers, whilst promoting our product and brand at the same time. With the advent of the online store, The Cupcake Queens quickly transformed from a make to order special occasion bakery to a commercial enterprise catering to the broader consumer demand.

My friend and I got the zucchini fritters and baked eggs to share. I ordered a large coffee and my friend got their kombucha bottle drink. All up our bill was only 39. Cheapest brunch I've had and portion sizes are great. Our drinks and meals arrived quickly and we were also provided share plates The three zucchini fritters were topped with chunky chopped avocado and came with the most delicious crunchy chutney I've ever had. Th dish was also served with some kidney beans and corn. My friend and I couldn't believe how good they were. They're not crispy but more like soft cutlets. The baked eggs dish include three slices of buttered sourdough bread which was quite crunchy and difficult to cut into. The baked eggs were well favoured and included two baked eggs in a bed of tomato sauce with chickpeas and eggplant and topped with some delicious soft cheese. Service is quick. Meals are delicious. And it has a relaxed vibe. They also do split bills.

Much to my excitement, they have opened a new Melbourne store 2 doors up from my office. My body is shaking in fear. Cupcakes on Pitt do little baby cupcakes that are just the right size to satisfy a sugar craving. They've also extended their range to include Macrons. Freshly baked on premises every day, they also offer a monthly (apparently) rotating roster of flavours, all which are beautifully decorated. They use Toby's estate beans, however I had my first coffee their on their day of opening and they were still getting their machine right. Now they have been open a few weeks I'll see how they are tracking with their coffee making skills and report back. They also offer a range of giant cupcakes for special events. Yum.

The thought alone of cupcakes being delivered to my door take me straight to Cloud 9 in Foodie Heaven. But I have to pinch myself, this is no dream. I have a happy gift bag in my hand now. Inside the house, I take a bright pink box out of the gift bag. Lifting the lid, I had 12 gorgeous cupcakes gleaming right at me. Three cards were inside: one of the cupcake flavors, another listing the Cupcake Queens locations across Melbourne, and the last was the best: containing a birthday message from my family in Canada. I don't know what sorcery this was, that I had cupcakes in front of me, and a loving message from Canada. Talk about how global the world is?! It still surprises me and makes me feel like a special little butterfly. You can only imagine how I spent the rest of my day...Stuffing my face with cupcakes and tea watching chick flicks. It was bliss. I was in absolute love with these cupcakes from The Cupcake Queens. They were so colorful and pretty looking. I couldn't help but taking a cupcake photo shoot with each of them. And the taste was so balanced. The cake itself was dense and not just fluffy air that you can find in some cakes with no substance. The frosting got me, creamy and thick and it gave me starry sugar eyes. Not only were these cupcakes eye candy Instagram worthy, the taste and flavor was in the ten's. I wish I could go on a rave forever exclaiming about how wonderful these cupcakes are, but maybe you should just go and try them for yourself!

Upon emailing the Cupcake Queens, there was no apology issued, simply a defensive response stating this was one of their busiest days and so they couldn't help being late. I had been assured that my order would arrive within a specific time window and had arrived extra early to receive it. When the cupcakes finally arrived, the delivery men informed us that they weren't told they had to be here early. In addition to the defensive customer service response we were fed with the good old 'we can't control traffic and weather conditions' and 'this is one of our busiest days', none of which we'd been told were conditions of our order when we fully paid for the cupcakes up front. Really disgusted with the service and will never order from them again.
