    Placed an order online for cupcakes for my daughter's birthday. Picked up in store and received 16 frosting smashed cupcakes. The girl behind the counter noticed right away but wasn't able to replace them on the spot, she was nice but didn't know how to handle the situation. It's wild to me that whoever boxed these thought this was okay. And then I get billed full price for damaged goods.

    Our sealed boxes and a complimentary gift tag card!

    We came on a Friday afternoon to get some cupcakes for a treat and some to gift. The shop was clean & cute. There were a lot of adorable cupcakes to choose from. They also had cookie sandwiches. We received patient, very friendly, hospitable service. Our cupcakes were packed with care and nicely sealed with a label. I really appreciated the complimentary gift tag card that was available. We ate a vanilla/vanilla, death by chocolate, & s'mores. All were delicious indulgent treats. Death by chocolate was intensely chocolatey & the cream inside was so smooth. This is definitely the place to go to for sweet cupcake cravings!

    I stopped into this location for the first time after visiting their Midtown Sacramento location many, many times. I was hoping they would have their amazing butterscotch blondies available and I was lucky enough to get the last one of the day- SCORE! I ended up getting the butterscotch blondie ($3.25), chocolate fudge brownie ($3.25), and four cupcakes ($4/cupcake) the Red Velvet, Pinkdelicious, German Chocolate and Snowball as a four pack. They were beautifully made and decorated and I was excited to order the four to take some Valentine's themed photos and of course enjoy. The staff were friendly, but it seems like they were pretty busy as well with a phone order. They got me in and out of the store quickly and I was so excited about the butterscotch blondie, they're seriously the best. They have plenty of parking outside and the inside is very cute with a few tables in case you want to enjoy your dessert right away.

    The frosting to cupcake ratio is way off.

    Sadly it's changed. I have been a fan of icing on the cupcake since 2008 back when they just had one small location. I ordered their cupcakes to serve at my wedding in 2012 and have always gotten them as a treat for visiting family. Something has changed. Well, a lot has changed from the packaging to the way they do the frosting. It seems like less frosting on the cupcakes and that the cakes themselves are a bit dryer. Not sure if this is just all a result of changing your times but they are not the treat they once were.

    My sister brought these over and they are tasty! All of these are $4.75 each: * Confetti: Confetti buttermilk cupcake. * Pinkdelicous: Their signature cupcake! Moist chocolate cupcake topped with a pink vanilla buttercream frosting. * Red Velvet: Their famous Red Velvet cake with cream cheese frosting. * Carrot Cake: Delicious carrot cupcake with plump raisins and a hint of cinnamon. Topped with silky cream cheese frosting. * S' mores: Chocolate chip cake with marshmallow cream filling, frosted with marshmallow buttercream, rolled edges in graham cracker crumb, topped with mini marshmallows, mini chocolate chips and a graham cracker. * Death by Chocolate: Moist chocolate cupcake filled with chocolate pudding. Topped with chocolate fudge frosting and a chocolate drizzle. * Strawberry Cheesecake: Strawberry cake with cream cheese frosting, rolled in graham cracker crumbs and topped with a dollop of strawberry preserves.

    I usually go to the downtown location and the Folsom one and never had an issue. I came here today close to 5 pm and saw a sign. It said out to lunch. I saw several people walking around in the back. I guess they were all on lunch. The problem is not that but whoever put the sign didn't put the time they will come back. Basically customers were waiting and didn't know when their 30 minute lunch was going to be over. Never coming back to this location again because there is no care how long customers wait!

    key lime, brown butter coffee cake, choc w/choc, beehive, confetti, pink delicious

    Great customer service! I stopped in around 4:00 on a Thursday and was greeted by both employees behind the counter and they were both attentive and eager to help. My cupcakes were packaged with great care and they looked beautiful. Note: watch out for the sticker label the box is sealed with. It's one of those plastic-y packaging tape kind of stickers, and requires scissors or a knife to break through it, or risk a mean paper cut (speaking from experience lol) I got six cupcakes: beehive, key lime, brown butter coffee cake, confetti, chocolate cake w/chocolate frosting, and pink delicious. Some were filled and some were not, which I think really made a difference in our taste experiences. Key lime: Unfilled. Cale was moist and lightly lime flavored. I thought the lime tasted fake and wasn't a fan but husband liked it a lot. Brown Butter Coffee Cake: cake was dense but still moist. Flavor was good-- we all enjoyed it to varying degrees. Chocolate w/Chocolate: Unfilled. Very chocolatey flavor but cake was too dry for our liking. Beehive: Filled. Our favorite of the bunch. The filling inside really made a difference and the honey flavor was surprisingly delicious (considering I don't care for the taste of raw honey). Confetti: Unfilled. Cake was on the drier side. Husband said it tasted a bit like cornmeal. Pink Delicious: Unfilled. Moist chocolate cake with good chocolatey flavor. Frosting is good, nothing special (but we do love the color pink!) Overall, I'd come back, but would lean towards the filled cupcakes for optimal enjoyment.

    Went out for Mother's Day to beat the craziness tomorrow. All I can say is perfect customer service, perfect cupcakes in beautiful appearance and taste. I had some discipline and ordered one for myself. I can't believe I have not rated them before, been here many times and always great.

    Peanut Butter Chocolate, red velvet, lemon Apple caramel, strawberry, chocolate
    Annette H.

    Yummy cupcakes! Was first introduced to these by my friend who surprised me with some on my birthday. Pricey but fun cupcakes. They occasionally have coupons in the mail, so keep an eye out for those. The lemon is great and usually the chocolate ones are good. The red velvet was pretty dry this time. The Apple one was meh. I guess it's hit or miss with the flavors. Maybe if I got them as a gift, I wouldn't be so picky, but after paying around $4 a cupcake, you kind of expect them to taste a lot better than a grocery store cupcake.

    I love their cupcakes! They have classic and unique flavors. They have a featured cupcake daily and monthly flavors. Staff is always friendly. Cupcakes are delicious and moist especially the ones with filling in the middle. I would highly recommend this bakery if you want to enjoy a good cupcake!

Sarah was SO responsive and was able to accommodate a pretty last minute request. And on top of that, we then changed our mind about the kind of cake we wanted. I would have understood if she turned us away, but she didn't! She made it happen. She also doesn't make one of the desserts we were looking for but was kind enough to refer me to where I could find it. I was already impressed with and grateful for the great service, but the VIP clients I ordered the cheesecake for said it was to die for! I can't wait to try one of her creations myself. We will absolutely be using Mad Batter for our next cake order in the Sacramento area. Thank you, Sarah!

    I ordered a custom birthday cake and paid $117 upfront through Zelle…read more After I sent the payment, the owner informed me she no longer had access to that Zelle account. She said she would contact her bank and still confirmed my order. Just two days before my daughter's birthday party, the owner told me her family had norovirus and offered to either make the cake or cancel with a full refund. I appreciated her honesty and chose to cancel since the cake would be served to many children. Having to find a replacement cake only two days before the party caused me a great deal of stress, a parent planning a large birthday celebration, this added unnecessary pressure during an already busy time. Despite that, I remained understanding because I knew her family's illness was beyond her control. The owner asked for other ways to refund me, I sent her my Venmo information and she promised my refund would be sent "in the next couple of days." More than a week later, I still have not received my $117 refund despite multiple polite follow-up messages. I also contacted my bank, but they explained they couldn't dispute the payment because it was successfully sent to her Zelle account. Since the recipient banks with a different financial institution, they couldn't investigate what happened after the funds were received. What frustrated me the most throughout this experience was the lack of communication. I never knew if or when I would receive a response. Sometimes I had to follow up just to get an update, and now my messages have gone unanswered altogether. A simple update would have gone a long way. I understand emergencies happen, and I genuinely appreciated the owner's honesty about her family's illness. However, promising a refund, acknowledging the payment issue was their responsibility and then failing to communicate or issue the refund has been very disappointing. As of today, more than a week after she promised to send my refund, I am still waiting to receive it and have not received any communication from her. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this bakery at all.

Unfortunately for me, they were out of there incredible looking cinnamon rolls and apple fritters. The photos from other Yelpers made me jealous. Instead, I got some donut holes and a chocolate croissant. The nice lady had a thick accent, but we got things figured out, and she even threw in some extra donut holes for me. The donut holes were incredible. Absolutely melt in your mouth. Perfection. The chocolate croissant was not flaky or crispy, but had that classic donut shop chewy texture, and of course, was loaded with chocolate. I HAVE to come back for the apple fritter, as that's one of my favorite donuts, and the cinnamon rolls look insane. I will be back!

First and most important star: Pushkin's is predominantly vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free -- and bakeries that truly excel in all three are one in a million. For anyone with allergies or dietary restrictions, this place feels like winning the lottery. You can actually relax and enjoy treats without feeling like you're settling or taking a risk. Second star: the employees are incredibly friendly and genuinely passionate. One guy (nose ring, long blonde hair -- didn't catch his name) was amazing. He knew the pastries inside and out and patiently walked my wife through allergy questions about dairy-free options, putting her totally at ease. And trust me, my wife can ask a thousand questions (till u wanna choke her).. Another employee -- a short, curly-haired, very light-skinned/mixed Black woman -- was just as gracious when we asked about cashews for our daughter. Both of them were beyond kind and knowledgeable. Third star: great coffee. I only had an Americano, but it was really good -- smooth, rich, and exactly what you want with pastries like these. Fourth star: the place is clean, organized, and clearly well-run. It was busy, but the team handled the crowd efficiently without feeling rushed or chaotic. Fifth star (the fun one): the pastries are ridiculously good. We tried a bunch: * chocolate mud cookie -- perfect crunch on the outside, chewy inside * cinnamon-roll-style pound cake -- super moist and flavorful * cinnamon roll scone * almond cake with raspberry ...and several others I didn't catch the names of. Everything was delicious. You'd never guess these are vegan/gluten-free/dairy-free -- they're just straight-up amazing pastries. Bottom line: Pushkin's is a gem. If you have dietary restrictions, it's a must-visit. If you don't, are you sure you don't? Maybe you should? it's still a must-visit. We'll absolutely be back when in town to check out the cafe and real food items !
