I sent photos of what I wanted, provided colors and cake flavor of choice, and via communication online, everything came together perfectly! Customer service was great and the pick-up was also very easy. I even purchased an extra treat to-go on arrival. The cake was nice and moist and the decorations were awesome. The red velvet balanced well with the cream cheese filling. Birthday girl said it was perfect! The bakery shop itself is super cute on the inside. Nice display with a few treats for onsite purchase. There are even vegan options and a small seating area if you prefer to enjoy coffee and a treat onsite. I will definitely use them again for additional desserts on my return to Playa Del Carmen.

Cute place from the outside and welcoming staff on the inside... but the love affair ended shortly…read morethereafter. We had just finished tacos next door and decided to garb a couple cupcakes to enjoy at our condo around the corner since we have walked by Kuchen Cupcakes many times this trip and other trips to Playa Del Carmen. From the storefront window it was colorful and cute and the menu board in the doorway was enticing. The selection was not extreme but I don't really need a million choices so I was happy with the limited selection. My wife ordered the CARROT CAKE CUPCAKE... it was cute and once we told the girl it was to go so we eat later that night, she packaged it into a cup with lid. I ordered a TRES LECHE something.... it too was packaged but I wish the girl would've told me it was served sitting in a cup with milk (possibly evaporated milk). I really wanted it for that night in the condo but I ended up eating on the walk back because I didn't want it turning to a wet bowl of mush. That was one problem but it also wasn't great tasting... I think my wife can make a better Tres Leche anything anytime. I will say the CARROT CAKE CUPCAKE was better but not amazing. I'm not back in Playa Del Carmen too often anymore, but I don't think it's one of the places I'd ever return to... with that said, I will say the place was clean and the staff (2 people) were quite friendly.

I've ordered the fruit bowl, tempura cauliflower tacos, and falafel pita. The fruit in the bowl is fairly fresh. It's a basic fruit bowl. The tempura cauliflower tacos have outstanding thick tortillas, fresh avocado, well executed tempura cauliflower, and fresh pickled cabbage. The balance of flavors makes for a genuinely good tack. The falafel pita was also quite good. The falafel had a crisp bite and smooth savory chick pea interior. The fries that are included are fresh, crisp on the bite, and smooth on the inside.

Okay so to start, this place used to be at the location where the Shoebox Bakery is now located…read more I went to both stores. This store however, is now located a couple doors down from Tacotenedor. I wandered in on one of my first few nights in Playa looking for a treat. I got a caramel cupcake, a cheesecake one, and something else I can't remember. I threw out the caramel one as it was so disgusting I couldn't continue. The other one was okay once I scraped off all the icing. The cheesecake one was the best one out of the three. Honestly, it looked like the cupcakes had been sitting out all day and weren't really made with the best recipe so it was just not a good experience. I would not recommend at all. The lady who served me spoke a bit of English and was helpful but it's just not worth the cost. It is a very slight step up from Shoebox but not by much.

The vanilla latte was layered with flavor to the last sip. The first thing I noticed was how smooth the coffee was, but also paired with a robust coffee flavor. It was not bitter at all.
