Wish they had more GF options since the cupcakes I picked up were delicious. I got two vanilla cupcakes with vanilla/sprinkles and chocolate frosting. The chocolate frosting was thicker than the vanilla and the vanilla was definitely fluffier and lighter. Both were good but different. Other options were mini cupcakes but some cookies and other things in GF would have been great. read more

I'm not usually a cupcake person. So many of the bottoms are dry and crumbly, and I'm not a huge fan of frosting, but it's tradition to pipe that mountain of frosting atop every cupcake. So I was sure I was meant to go through life as a cupcake hater, but someone brought a half dozen of Crowley's to a party. Color me surprised. The strawberry shortcake cupcake was wonderfully moist on the inside, and I didn't feel the need to scrape off half the frosting like I do with most cupcakes. The person who brought these to the party also said they'd kept these in the fridge for quite a few hours before the part, so I was surprised as how moist they'd stayed in spite of the chill. I don't live in the area, but if I were in the mood for some dessert and passing through, Crowley's is probably the only place I would even consider for cupcakes. read more

Right down the block from Madison bagels is Crowley cupcakes. The appearance of this shop caught my eye, and I had a sweet tooth, so I had to walk in. Large variety of cupcakes, and if I could, I would have bought more, but no reason to over indulge. I can always come back when I'm in the area again. I bought a brownie cup cake and a lemon cupcake with a sugar cookie and frosting with cinnamon sugar. Both tasted very fresh, and you can tell they were made the same day. The inside of the shop is pleasant looking. Neat and inviting. The staff was welcoming. Next time around, I will try something different from this shop. read more

Crowley has a large selection of cupcakes to choose from, seems like there's something for everyone. My son had a hard time choosing just one, but ended up going with the hostess cupcake. It's covered in chocolate with a marshmallow filling. Needless to say, he devoured it. I had a little bite and the cake was moist and spongey. I think they have a few premium cupcakes with fillings inside. The mini cupcakes are cute and probably nice to bring to a dinner party, etc. read more

Crowley Cupcakes - a chocolate cupcake with white icing - Desserts Near Me - Madison, New Jersey

These cupcakes are amazing. I always get the mini cupcakes because I want to try all the different flavors. The cake is moist and fluffy. The frosting is sweet and goes perfectly with the cake. They are a bit pricey, but it is worth it. I have often drive Madison just to get these bad boys and DID NOT regret this choice. I always want to try their breads, but they are always sold out by the time I get there. These cupcakes are perfect for a party. They are very pretty and delicious. read more

Loved all the mini cupcakes I tried! They were super moist and I was especially impressed by the s'mores, caramel brownie and snickerdoodle cupcakes. Each was yummier than the last. Also tried the m&m and chocolate chip full sized cookies and they were excellent too. Will be back for sure! read more

I went to Crowley today and got cupcakes for me and my friends. The shop is so quaint and beautifully decorated. I loved it. They had such a wide selection of cupcakes: I had a hard time choosing. When I returned, my friends were so excited. Each cupcake tasted simply divine. I need to go back for more! read more

Great spot in town and the staff is super friendly. I stopped by to check their selection of flavors to order cupcakes for my wife's birthday. I asked about the mocha flavor cupcakes that was on the website because I didn't see it in the case. Dissappointed to hear that they didn't have any or have plans to make them as they rotate their flavors, they were able to make a custom order for me to pick up the next day. Great staff and service. Will definitely be back! read more

I ventured to Crowley Cupcakes this snowy Christmas Eve, filled with excitement and anticipation. I had heard lots of merry things about this spot, and the line nearly out the door led me to believe I was in for a real treat, or five or six. Seven cupcakes to be exact. Not 7 fishes, but 7 cupcakes. They certainly looked delectable, iced and decorated beautifully. The first taste of frosting was quite good, and would have put a big smile on Frosty the Snowman's face, but what lay beneath was some of the driest, least tasty cake I have ever sunk my teeth into, and the only flavor it provided was almost acrid. A mini pumpkin pie for over five dollars was completely inedible, and landed in the trash after one bite. A couple of Snickerdoodle cookies were tasty enough, but far from the best I've ever had. I don't want to be The Little Bummer Boy just a day after Christmas, but this place was all style over substance. Friendly staff, fairly yummy icing, but Bah, Humbug to the rest. read more

I'm a sucker for miniature cupcakes from a cuteness perspective but do hold them to a high standard for taste -- they have to live up to the fantasy to get a 5-star like this. Because they usually disappoint in the flavor department, I try to manage expectations. A friend served these at dinner last night and I smiled politely before my first bite but man-oh-man do they live up to the tiny perfection of their appearance. Light, airy cake, both chocolate and vanilla-based -- already pretty unusual. But some with added surprise touches of chips or sprinkles in exactly right proportions. And the frosting, just...WOW. Holy Toledo. Fluffy clouds of delicate buttercream, not a hint of greasiness or grinding sugar!!! With actual flavor of fruit in the strawberry and lemon and vanilla in the white toppings. My dream frosting in precisely the right amount relative to itty-bitty cake size. Remarkably, as tiny ones tend to quickly stakes, they are tasting just as amazing the next day, as I type this. Plus, the ones I passed over last night, thinking "meh, blue frosting, that'll be unbearably sweet" or had other reservations about? Uniformly delicious!!! Do I sound ridiculously fulsome about mini cupcakes? Yes, yes I do. But only because these are probably the best I've had in a decade (of many, many cupcake trials), in ANY size. The fact that they are beautiful, minute replicas of gourmet grown-up cupcakes is like getting a winning scratch-off in your birthday card from grandma. Pure bliss. read more

We ordered mini and regular cupcakes for my godson's birthday party from Crowley Cupcakes. They were delicious and everyone loved them - moist, fluffy cake and perfectly sweet, creamy frosting. The best part for me was how cute they all were! My friend had ordered them, and I went to pick them up. I would definitely like to stop by again and try a few other cupcakes I noticed in the display case. read more

As good as always! I can't emphasize how good these cupcakes are. Coming from someone who doesn't have the biggest sweet tooth, the minis were perfect. Highly recommend the carrot cake, red velvet, and snicker doodle cupcakes read more

Ordered a birthday cake for my son. I asked them to make a custom cake. I wanted a chocolate cake, with Nutella frosting in the middle and chocolate Ganache on top (my son loves chocolate obviously!). I was very pleasantly surprised when placing the order. Very polite, quick and accommodating, said the combination would be no problem. I feel like everywhere you go these days no one wants to be bothered going the extra mile anymore so this was refreshing. Ok,now on to the cake. Wow! It was incredible!! Best birthday cake I've ever had and many of my guests said the same thing. I thought the combination sounded too sweet for adults but we all loved it. It was perfect. Not gritty, not too sweet. Oh, and it was huge!! Must have weighed 15 ponds. I ordered the sheet cake size. Will definitely return for every birthday in the family, and many guests asked for the name and address of the place. My nephew texted me 2 days later, the text just said "can't stop thinking about that cake!" lol Thanks Crowleys! Great job. read more

Crowley Cupcakes - Chocolate cake with Nutella frosting in the middle and chocolate Ganache on top. Awesome! - Desserts Near Me - Madison, New Jersey

Good but suuuuper overpriced and way too much frosting. Need more cake ! These are great for show but there are far better cupcakes in town.

If you just LOVE SWEET, defiantly come here! They are overly sweet for me (and my family) that i don't taste any of the different flavor, and i can't even finish half cupcake. However they are looking cute for table decoration:) read more

What a fun little shop! Great and wide selection, with mini versions of most of their offerings. Folks are VERY helpful and friendly. read more

In order from my fav to least: Coconut cupcake: amazing toasted coconuts on vanilla cake. Flavors were on point. Chocolate chip cupcake: chocolate, more chocolate and then a cookie on top? Can't beat that! Hostess cupcake: tastes just like the real hostess treat with marshmallow inside Snicker doodle cupcake: a bit too sweet for my personal liking, but I do understand it's a sugar cookie. Red velvet cupcake: lackluster and the frosting wasn't cream cheese :( Carrot cake cupcake: it did not taste like carrots, and the chunks usually add good texture but it wasn't working for this one. They have tons more I'd like to try. Each mini cupcake about $1.5. read more

Crowley Cupcakes was a featured vendor at A Taste of Madison last night. I had the pleasure of sampling them. They were unbelievably delicious!!! I tried most of the flavors and was impressed by them all. The cake was moist and the toppings incredible. I highly recommend that you give them a try! So worth the trip to Madison!! read more

The mini cupcakes are deadly, I could easily pop a case of them with no effort at all. The flavors are solid, and the designs are very creative and cute. I tried the mint chocolate which reminded me of one of those andes candies, and the cafe mocha which had a chocolate covered espresso bean on top, and was the perfect bite of coffee. Flavors are all extremely well balanced, and they are not overly sweet. read more

Crowley Cupcakes - Someone gifted us these at work!!!! - Desserts Near Me - Madison, New Jersey

If joy could be baked into little cakes the size of baseballs, Crowley's is the source of that knowledge. Their cupcakes are little wonders of delight, packing a punch of flavor into their small and large size cupcakes. The assortment of flavors is astounding; my personal favorites are the cookie varieties (Oreo, chocolate chip, and snickerdoodle) - but truly each flavor is a favorite when they're THAT good. read more

I seriously recommend trying all these cupcakes. You couldn't possibly go wrong walking in and grabbing a few cupcakes and cookies. So good! read more

Gluten free cupcakes are THE BEST I have ever had! Pricing is affordable and they have a ton of great cupcake flavors. I give a dozen mini cupcakes as gifts from time to time and they're always a hit! read more

Our family of 6 happened to stop nearby for lunch while driving on our vacation. We walked by on the way back to our car and decided to stop in. We purchased a half dozen of the mini cupcakes and we all agreed they were one of the best cupcakes we ever had! I had a tough time choosing what flavor I was going to have, as they all looked so good. I ultimately chose the Chocolate Cherry and it was amazing! The rest of the family had a special Shark bite that they were offering at the time, Smores, Mint Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Chip Cookie, and a Gluten Free Vanilla. My daughter with the Gluten Intolerance said it was hands down the best Gluten free cupcake she's had. Very moist and not as dense as others she's had. The staff was very friendly and prices are comparable to other bakeries we've been to. I only wish we lived closer! But if we are in New Jersey again, we will head toward Madison just for more Crowley's read more

Walking in the place its adorable and clean. Very friendly and helpful staff. I am very picky when it comes to cupcakes because I bake at home and prefer my own. I always try cupcakes out to see what I think. I decided to try a few mini cupcakes. Omg these were amazing!! All of them. The banana one, hostess knock off, plain vanilla. Everything was amazing. Flavors were great. Cake was moist. I'm happy I don't live to close because I would be there all the time. Give this place a try!! read more

Wow that's a good cupcake! Bought a gluten-free dozen and I honestly wouldn't have know that they were not the genuine article if I hadn't bought them myself. I'm a little concerned for the potential for cross-contamination. I'll have to see if the celiac recipient has any reaction. Fingers crossed! Moist and delicious, and the icing is delectable! However, at $23 for a dozen mini cupcakes they are OUTRAGEOUSLY priced. Very good cupcakes. Worth that kind of money? Probably not. Might be the place I return to for a gluten-free birthday cake once a year, but certainly not in the regular rotation. read more

Best cupcakes in town! Simple recipes but somehow they are able to keep their cupcake consistently moist for few days. If they don't have your preferred flavor, almost always they are willing to make one from the kitchen. Just ask! read more

Basically a cup cake bakery in the heart of Madison's thriving downtown. They pretty much do one thing, but they do it right! The vanilla with chocolate cupcakes are fresh and topped with a quality frosting. The confetti cupcake topped with a cookie was decadent also, yet not too rich. The small assortment is a bit expensive, but gives you a chance to sample. read more

Some of the best cupcakes I have ever had. Largely due to the frosting, really sthe best I've had at a bakery and I am an avid baker myself. It's hard to perfect icing and they have the recipe, I think I would pay a bit for it. The Chocolate on chocolate cupcake can't be beat. But my son adores the M&M , Chocolate Chip Cookie and Oreo. I also like their Carrot Cake from time to time although I'm always getting at least one chocolate on chocolate when I visit, it's literally that good ! Located in the cutest and best part of town too. Nice walkability to check out the shops after to simultaneously burn the decadence off . Another big recommendation! read more

Gluten free birthday surprise. As a celiac, whose family lives far away, I never get a birthday cake. Came home from work on my birthday to candles lit on a yummy gluten free cupcake! Wonderful! read more

Store interior is cute enough, but they just had two big refrigerated cases (a la Italian bakery style) for their display - didn't really look too appealing. Cupcakes are similar to Crumbs in style and flavors, which is not really my cup of tea. I selected a mini red velvet - the cake was moist enough, but the buttercream was so thick and hard from being too cold in the refrigerated case that it was inedible. The bf literally threw it out the window... Btw they renamed their store "Crowley Cupcake". read more

For the price, $15 for six mini cupcakes, I expected these to absolutely blow my mind. They were dry, tasteless, and the frosting was way too sweet. I am disappointed considering the store is so highly reviewed. read more

Cupcakes were amazing, honestly the best I've had in a long time and will definitely be back to get more to bring home. I took a star off for their in-store dining experience. I came in with my toddler daughter and asked for cupcake to eat in store. They literally placed the cupcakes on the counter with no plate or fork. When I asked for a plate they actually didn't have any, or a good place to sit. Despite that I would still definitely recommend the place just not for eat in. read more

Been here a couple times and can say their cupcakes are pretty good. Although they may be a little expensive, I think they're worth at least trying if you're around. read more
