I loved the added touch of a tiny jar of candles and a match that came with the cake. I took the cake out one hour prior to serving per their instructions. The cake was absolutely perfect.

The shop is cute and cozy with a nice display of cupcakes available and prices. I opted to purchase 4 cupcakes to share and had asked the staff member for recommendations on flavors. Customer service was excellent, friendly and efficient. I will say the cupcakes are a bit pricey ($4.99 each) but the quality and taste are great. It's also wonderful that they have gluten free and vegan cupcakes available too. I enjoyed the cookie butter and cookies n' cream flavors, the cupcakes weren't overly sweet and had a nice texture and the icing was good too. I was curious about trying the pandan and strawberry crunch flavors, and will need to return for more cupcakes! Overall, a solid spot for delicious cupcakes! Definitely recommend!

Street parking is the only option. Today, on a play date, I asked my daughter and friend if they wanted a cupcake - YEAH! The permanently drawn hopscotch and flowers on the sidewalk adjacent to the store was a nice touch. The two littles hopscotched their way to the front door. The hours are clearly printed on the door with adornments in the windows to be seen from the outside. Inside the store is quaint. The cupcake display is upfront with the register to the left. We were immediately greeted upon entering. We were the only group inside. At 12:30PM the display case was fairly empty, using cupcake name plates to determine if I wanted any not displayed - I did, one. The young lady behind the counter was in the middle of bringing out an oversized tub of cupcakes to fill the display as we entered. There were about 25 cupcake flavors to choose from with some being vegan including 3 additional dessert options. We each made our selection - vanilla bean, vanilla chocolate, lemon drop, Meyer lemon cream - each $4.75 and packaged individually upon request. Mobile pay, credit/debit and cash were options of payment. The cupcakes are smedium (small medium) in size. The vanilla bean frosting was enjoyed by my daughter. The cupcake itself did not taste like vanilla, more yellow cake forward and was a bit dry. The vanilla chocolate was devoured by my daughter's friend - she enjoyed. The lemon drop was lemon forward, the cupcake was moist, frosting thick. The Meyer lemon was a sweet, lemon forward cupcake, moist with a lemon curd my husband enjoyed.

The number cake we got was like a piece of art - every detail was so carefully crafted. Even the little sprinkles were gorgeous! Eileen was very nice and made sure to give me instructions to make sure the cake was in tip top shape for our party. Highly recommended and can't wait to order more confections in the future!

I cannot hype her baked goods enough-- we just finished off the Valentines Day 2021 box which included incredible macarons and cupcakes with merengue accents.
