Such a cute cupcake shop in Golden! I cam in towards the end of the day, and they still were well-stocked with fresh treats. The three cupcakes we tried (sugar cookie, carrot, and cookies and cream) were all very moist and delicious. The frosting is a bit on the sweet side, but the cake itself balances it well. They were also very friendly! read more

The staff was AMAZING!! They also have such great flavor choices and all are superb. They offer regular gluten free and vegan! They have regular size and minis if you can't decide on a flavor. We got a dozen minis and loved them all. read more

From Chicago, first time at Gold Mine Cupcakes today with my wife and daughters. Some thoughts... -Very friendly service! -My daughter gave me a bite of her vegan cupcake and it was good. Moist and flavorful. -I had the vanilla raspberry and it had a rich, shortbread flavor--lovely! Frosting was, well, frosting : ) Highly recommended! read more

They do not offer a vegan and gluten free cupcake. We got a peppermint hit cocoa GF cupcake and it was very good. The cake was moist which is impressive for a GF. read more

Warning: sorry, there's no picture with this review - I devoured my cupcake too quickly! A cute little cupcake shop on 12th street. They have a few tables inside. There was a pretty nice selection on cupcakes to choose from, including gluten free cupcakes. I tried the vanilla (almond flavor). The cupcake was simply decorate, yet pretty. The flavoring was amazing. The cake consistency was a bit more like angle food cake -- spongy, yet moist, with a bit of a spring to it (not crumbly). The icing was sweet and creamy but not overpoweringly sweet. I recommend giving Gold Mine Cupcakes a try! read more

If I could give this place "zero" stars, I would. There is absolutely no flavor, and the cake is spongy.

Today we stopped by this bakery to try out their cupcakes. I have celiac so I chose a gluten-free cinnamon cupcake with cream cheese frosting and my husband chose a red velvet cupcake. The cupcakes were very good. I think the service was just OK. They didn't seem that welcoming And somewhat inpatient when asking questions about the cupcakes. There were just about three tables inside and we were the only customers at the time. It seemed that they only had beverages that were in a cooler. read more

What a great little shop! There is quite a bit of a selection as well as gluten free options as well. Parking is limited. The staff is very helpful and quick. read more

Um. All I can say is I agree with the name. The turtle cupcake was to die for. I'd usually leave a longer review, but what can I say? You walk in, your mouth waters, you try to leave without buying something, you fail, and your mind is blown. So. Good. read more

Great cupcakes, little bombs of sweetness. Staff is always nice. Pups enjoy the carrot muffins, very small, for dogs.

Delicious cakes! My sweet tooth was acting up and this little convenient bakeshop was the perfect stop. I grabbed one Birthday Cake cupcake and one Cookies & Cream. Both were fantastic. The cake is super moist and flavorful. The frosting was phenomenal. Not at all like the bland, mock-up icings on cakes at the convenient store. This frosting was amazingly sweet (duh), creamy and smooth. Wish my tummy was bigger just so I could have gone back for more! read more

Such a great bakery. The cupcakes are amazing. Great little shop! Great service! A little pricey but being homemade is worth it

Best cupcakes around! Gold Mine always has the most delicious, moist, and flavorful cupcakes. Often get them for parties and gatherings. Stopped by recently and ordered the Red Velvet and Carrot Cake - both were insanely delicious. Their staff is friendly and helpful too! Suggest getting there before 5pm as their cupcakes are so popular they sometimes sell out. Yum! read more

Great presentation and wonderful staff but the quality isn't good. Didn't taste fresh; cupcakes stored in the fridge just aren't the same as fresh baked. Won't be back :( read more

Gold Mine Cupcakes has a great selection of of flavors to choose from such as red velvet, carrot cake, turtle pie, birthday cake and coconut lime. The cake is moist and light and topped with a generous heap of sweet frosting. They also sell pup cakes containing carrots and peanut butter. We enjoyed the cupcakes and the dogs loved their treats too! read more

This place is very good, and I like that it's not one of the new-fangled chain locations but seems genuine a familyish. The quality, taste and freshness were exceptional. It's directly across the street from Tributary Food Hall so the location is awesome. Definitely worth a try to get a taste of Mom's, fresh out of the oven deliciousness! read more

Great Cupcake Shop in Golden... it's right off the main drag. Walking in, it's a small shop that seems to be a Mother/Daughter operation. The flavors rotate on a daily basis and all the cupcakes are generously topped with buttercream frosting! They are decorated beautifully and packaged in plastic carriers with the store logo so they make a great gift. I really liked the Diamond White, Turtle & Birthday Cake.... so good I had to make a U-Turn on the highway to go back and get another half dozen! Must stop in Golden. read more

Bonus of my life: THEY HAVE A SPRINKLES BAR It's a cute little shop in Golden. Not too many cupcakes, but each is pretty cute. I had a white one - almond - that was really yummy. And then I went to THE SPRINKLES BAR. Yes, I was a giddy schoolgirl. Yes, it made me squeel with delight. Yes, I am happy, happy, cupcake happy. read more

We ordered cupcakes and a cutting cake for our wedding. We got many compliments and requests for the vendor. These are the best cupcakes most of my guests had ever had. Our journey started back in June of 2021. My mother and I were looking for wedding cake made easy, tasty, and didn't cost us our first born. I reached out once by phone and a second time by email through the website to schedule a tasting. This is a common theme and the reason for the lost star. They were frequently difficult to get ahold of. However, in the end, the cupcakes were a huge hit. The cutting cake was delicious. The decorations were lovely. read more

Never would've happened upon Gold Mine Cupcakes if it weren't for a friend from school who's also a Golden resident. When she suggested we meet up on NYE day for a sweet treat (and to exchange some textbooks), I gladly agreed. ICYMI, this little bakery operation is directly across the street from the food hall in downtown Golden. Plenty of parking and pretty easy to find. Walk inside, wait the appropriate 6' distance to order your cupcakes and pay. Very simple and very delicious. I was lucky and got one of the NYE specials: champagne flavored white mini cupcake. I also took home a regular sized red velvet and white cake to eat with our at-home NYE meal. read more

Cute store and delicious cupcakes! So many great flavors to choose from and even some good gluten free options

I'm not sure if we caught them on a bad day, but the four cupcakes we got were not good. The cake was flavorless (except the raw flour taste in the Birthday Cake flavor). The icing is overly sweet, possibly to mask the flavorless cake, similar to canned icing from the baking aisle. Overpriced and really didn't appreciate the up-sell tactics the women working there used. Go to the Kings Soopers bakery instead... read more

The owner is a lovely woman, so pleasant and informative. The shop is cute and clean. We bought three containers of the mini cupcakes for our party and they were a HUGE hit. They were devoured. read more

I regret to write this review, but I feel compelled to share my recent experience on Sunday (7/16) at Gold Mine Cupcakes. While the overall establishment is well-maintained and provides satisfactory service, I encountered an employee who made my visit with my children uncomfortable. Upon entering the premises, I was greeted by a older woman (I don't quite remember her name). Her facial expressions/ body language conveyed a dismissive or hostile attitude. She seemed to be annoyed and/or upset. I wouldn't describe Golden as being a sketchy area, so I was surprised that this type of person in such a setting. I have been a customer at Gold Mine for a couple years, and love their products and rest of their staff. The cupcakes we bought on Sunday were as great as always. However, unfortunately I thought it was imperative to share my experience. read more

Covid update: still my favorite cupcake place. They only allow ordering at the door, and they have a limited selection, but really, you can't go wrong. We had the double chocolate and the turtle, and while the turtle was a little bit better, both were super delicious. Would absolutely recommend. read more

Yum. The cupcakes here have a very unique crumb texture that is hard to describe. I had a diamond (vanilla and almond) and my fiancé had a strawberry chocolate. The regulars are also a good size. Not ginormous or too small, just Goldilocks right. The strawberry cupcake was full of fresh strawberry flavor and I loved my almond. Right now they are doing walk up service only but there are tables in an extended dining area on 12th. read more

If you like cupcakes, you'll love this place. Not only do they offer a nice variety of cupcakes daily, you can preorder seasonal types. I have purchased the small cupcakes as well as the regular size, both varieties are delicious. Furthermore, I have never had a problem finding a parking spot, it is near 2 municipal parking garages. Customer service is outstanding and on top of that, the owner distributes the leftovers to Golden's first responders and senior communities. read more

I ordered cupcakes to take as a thank you gift. The staff were in love with the look and taste. I can say that the birthday cake flavor was delicious. read more

These cupcakes were delicious! They served as a perfect small dessert for the two of us for a couple of days although we had to restrain ourselves. We got the half dozen minis and chose a lemon, ginger, raspberry chocolate, Devil's food, vanilla strawberry and an Oreo. Each cupcake was still moist and had the right amount of frosting even though they were mini. Our favorites were the raspberry chocolate, Oreo and vanilla strawberry. We will definitely be returning! read more

Came in after having a few drinks down the street. Read mixed reviews but we are glad we gave this place a try. We came in 30 mins before close and were still welcome and they had a decent selection of treats. Tasted great! read more

The ladies behind Gold Mine Cupcakes are a delight to work with. We originally hired them to supply cupcakes for our March 2020 wedding. When that didn't work out, they made it easy to push our deposit forward. We ended up using our deposit for a much smaller July 2020 wedding. Then, our best friends used them for their Labor Day 2020 wedding! Gold Mine supplied smores cupcakes, which weren't even on the menu, when a fire ban in Grand County foiled their plans to do smores over a fire. We used Gold Mine Cupcakes again when we had our larger wedding reception in November 2021. They delivered the cupcakes and a beautiful stand to display them on. They will work with any dietary preferences so that all your guests can enjoy a delicious dessert. I look forward to the next time I'm in Golden and can pick up some cupcakes to remind me of my wedding(s)! read more

Who doesn't like cupcakes? These are spectacular. A traditional size cupcake, not gigantic, not tiny but just right. They look beautiful and taste great. I like that you can taste the cake and the toppings, not just the toppings. The cake is perfectly done, great texture and delicious. A favorite stop in Golden. Sorry no picks they simply don't last long enough. read more

Such a cute, warm & inviting shop! Stopped in today for the first time to get cupcakes for a friend's birthday. I got the chocolate turtle cupcakes & they were quite delicious! They were moist, velvety, not overly sugary. We were greeted warmly with a smile & she was very helpful. Will definitely be back. Highly recommended. read more

My boyfriend works for FedEx and brings home a cup cake for me every week. From what I've heard, the staff is very very nice. :) Overall, these are the best cupcakes I've literally ever had in my life. But, the strawberry cupcake is award winning and my favorite, hands down! The flavors are so fresh and don't taste artificial, the cupcakes are dense so it doesn't feel like you're biting into air (lol), also, I dont even like frosting... yet I could spoon eat their frosting. I don't know how they do it. This cupcake shop is an inspiration and the owner/staff should be very proud! read more
