Can you say spoiled?! I've never been to a dessert shop that frosted my cupcake after I ordered it right in front of my face. Plus, the cupcakes in the display case are not the cupcakes they give you! Yes you read that correctly. The cupcakes and the display case are just that! For display! They actually have the cupcakes that customers take home behind the counter! Omg! I couldnot believe my eyes when I saw the owner go to the back and start frosting the cupcake I just ordered and then put on my caramel drizzle how perfect! Of course I would be back to midnight confections. I had no idea how close they were two bars I usually frequent when I'm in federal hill. Now I know and they will definitely be a spot I'll frequent whenever I'm in the area. read more

I've already been to this place two times lol and making the review. I haven't had a cupcake this good in a few years. Though the actual location is extremely small. It's definitely packing a punch. The person behind the register was super sweet and even took the time to ask me how my day was and learn a little bit about me. The first day that I went, I got one cupcake, one mini cheesecake, and one chocolate chip cookie. Everything and I mean, everything was delicious. The cupcakes were extremely moist and flavorful. The icing was also really good light and fluffy. The icing is really, really sweet so if you don't like things too sweet maybe tell them to ease up on the icing. I really enjoyed the cheesecake and it left me wanting more because of the small size. If you're looking for somewhere to get a quick treat, definitely stop in. I myself will be back at least once a week now. read more

Not only was the cupcake amazing - birthdaycake cupcake - almond extract? Whatever it was it was great and moist. 10/10 BUT the customer experience was 10/10 whoever was working tonight December 13th around 5 pm - needs a raise. Not only did he explain and read the whole menu to us he also asked us where we were from, what we did for work, if we had been there before and was genuine. Normally it's "hey, what do you want?" A+ customer service to the gentleman working tonight. We will be back! read more

I loved the cupcakes so much that we ordered our wedding cake from Midnite! It was delicious, reasonably priced, and our guests raved about the taste. Dana was excellent to work with and helped us come up with decoration that fit our budget. She also didn't mind using sprinkles and decor we purchased ourselves. Thank you for a fantastic cake!! read more

I ordered cupcakes for my husband's birthday and decided to grab one gluten free cupcake for myself just to test it out since I'm usually skeptical about gluten free desserts actually tasting good. I'm so glad I did because it was amazing. The flavor and texture were perfect, moist, rich, and not overly sweet. Honestly, it's the best gluten free dessert I've ever had. Buying just one was a mistake because now I'm already thinking about making the drive back to Baltimore just to get more. My husband loved his cupcakes too. They were fresh, soft, and full of flavor. You can really tell everything is made with care. Highly recommend Midnite Confection's Cupcakery for anyone who loves great desserts, gluten free or not. read more

Great bakery to stop in before a show. The staff was very helpful and provided vegan cupcakes that were fantastic. I had the black velvet cupcake that was delicious. The frosting was spot on. My only sadness was the size of the cupcake. Felt that it was maybe 3/4 the size of cupcakes I buy from other dessert bakeries. read more

I first had a cupcake from Midnite well over 10+ years ago, but it was one from their regular menu. Those are all good, but typically too rich for my taste. I love the speciality flavors they do though. In the past I had a cherry cupcake that was to die for. Yesterday I popped in because I'd heard they had a banana pudding cupcake and boy, did they ever. It was essentially banana bread with a core of banana pudding inside. The cupcake topping, not exactly sure what it was but it reminded me of Fluffer Nutter. All that to say, that particular cupcake was DELICIOUS and I gobbled it up before I had a chance to take a picture. :-( I also got a lemon blueberry cupcake that I didn't love. It reminded me of Jiffy muffins and was super greasy. But I get that not all specialty cupcakes will be to everyone's liking. The one I smashed though was the epitome of excellence. Next time I see that particular flavor, I'll get a dozen! read more

The cupcakery came highly recommended for the salted caramel cupcake. Although I did not have this flavor I enjoyed the midnite and carrot. The carrot did not have raisins and I was thrilled. I ordered 2 dozen for a next day pick up and the order was exactly what I requested. I would most definitely recommend and revisit every chance I get. Unfortunately, it is only .5 miles from my job so I foresee many more pounds in my future. Perhaps a brisk walk to and from the store will help curtail the anticipated calories. read more

The cupcakes are light, fluffy and moist. Absolutely delicious. The best cupcakes I've had in Baltimore. Eclipse and Full

MCC was the perfect spot to satisfy my sweet tooth after walking around inner harbor. The service was excellent, and the staff member took the time to explain the cupcake flavors and provide recommendations. Unfortunately, the store itself is a bit small inside, and there is no indoor seating. I ordered 1/2 a dozen cupcakes, including the playboy, gingerbread, midnite, full moon, and their best sellers, salted caramel, and black velvet. The cupcakes were well decorated and an excellent price for a specialty cupcake shop. The cake part was delicious for all of them. They were super moist and had nice flavors. However, the frosting was a bit too sweet for my preference and kind of overwhelmed the cake portion. The cream cheese frosting on the playboy and black velvet was a bit better, though, because the tartness of the cream cheese helped balance the sweetness. read more

I ordered cupcakes for my daughter's first birthday. I needed to pick up the order the night before the event because the party was scheduled for Sunday (and the store is closed that day). I was happy that the cupcakes were still moist the day of the party, and they kept their shape well. The price gave me a bit of sticker shock, but I felt it was worth the money to make this birthday party special. Various guests remarked on how delicious the cupcakes were (some while going back for seconds). Looking forward to ordering cupcakes from here again! read more

After reading one review, I just knew I had to pop inside since my sweet tooth was calling my name. I am so glad I did, too!! I got the Full Moon and Sublimeinal cupcake. When I say these were the hands down best cupcakes I have ever tasted. They were super moist, and the frosting was not too sweet but will have you craving more. Whoever is baking these cupcakes has a serious gift!! I wanna know the secret, but I will be back for more! read more

I had the opportunity to try midnight confection for a Yelp event. I will try to make this review short and sweet. I arrived at midnight confections around 6pm. It's actually located between a boutique and insomnia cookies. Nice location! The woman behind the counter kindly greeted me. As I looked around the store to check out the decor, cleanliness etc. I immediately decided which cupcakes I wanted to sample. I decided to purchase a black velvet and carrot cake (both kid approved). I literally watched my son devoured the black velvet within seconds..... hey.... slow down buddy. He gave me two thumbs up afterwards I had the strawberry cupcake it was very yummy and fresh. A very nice selection. . Ps: excuse the tipped over Cupcake this is not the bakeries fault. It's totally the drivers fault due to anxiously arriving home to try one :) Overall I'm giving this bakery 5 stars they also had fresh baked cookies for sale. Everyone knows I'm a Cookie Monster ;) read more

I tried several sweet treats from this bake shop, and i have mixed feelings overall. GLOWS: 1. Service was friendly and efficient 2. Cupcakes are served warm - they went to the back to "prepare" them, and at the time I didn't know what that meant. With that, eating them right away would beneficial. 3. The CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE WAS THE BOMB!! GROWS: 1. The cupcakes were just average. They were small for the price, gritty in texture, and the icing was overly sweet. 2. They have handwritten menu boards, seemingly to keep an updated menu, but when I ordered a keto flavored cookie, they were out. 3. Hand sanitizer around the shop with a pump for easy use would be a great addition (having to touch the door to come in creates a lot of touch points) read more

I visited Midnite Confections for Yelp event recently and I am so glad that I did! I have been searching for a cupcake business that would satisfy my sweet tooth without being forced to buy an entire dozen cupcakes. Midnite Confections is now my go-to cupcake dealer!! I ordered the cherry bomb cupcake for myself which didn't even make it home. The cupcake was moist and they didn't go overboard with the icing, which is a good thing for me. The icing was absolutely deliciously! Just the right amount of sweetness. I also ordered the eclipse, birthday cake and strawberry for my two boys and fiancé. Needless to say, the rest of the cupcakes didn't stand a chance! Once the world opens back up after Covid, I know who I will be calling to order cupcakes for any social events I host. Personally, I am always looking to support black-owners local businesses. It makes it even better to support when the product tastes so good! read more

Whenever getting cupcakes, I am always trying to find that balance between the perfect cake texture and sweetness level. At Midnight Confections Cupcakery, the cupcakes are moist but most of the frostings are a little too sweet for me. I ended up getting mostly seasonal flavors, except the lemon. I did not like the gingerbread cupcake too much. I honestly couldn't finish it. This bakery isn't set up like most in which you can see the cupcakes on display. I'm not sure if this is due to covid or if this is how it always is. They have a sheet with the cupcake flavors listed on them at the counter which was something else that had me confused. It wasn't until after I ordered that I realized that there was a bigger listing of flavors on the other side. Someone who ordered before me was raving about the salted caramel cupcake. I will have to try that next time. read more

I decided to pop in here tonight to satiate my dessert craving. This place is such a hole in the wall. I accidentally walked by it at first, which wasn't that hard to do honestly, but luckily I was able to find it. And I am so glad I discovered this place-- it is so delicious! When you walk in, the simple yet refined aesthetic was really nice. I liked how in the cupcake showcase only displayed flavors, so it looked neat, clean, and polished, which matched the elegance of the cupcakes. Onto the cupcake! So I only ended up getting one flavor, but after this one I will definitely be coming back. I ordered The Eclipse-- a vanilla cupcake with chocolate buttercream frosting. Omg! So I have really high standards for cake-based desserts because they are my life. This cupcake was literally a moist, crumbly pillowy confection below a halo of whipped chocolate hovering on top. This flavor combination is euphoric but especially on this cupcake. Every bite was the perfect ratio of frosting to cake, the frosting wonderfully blending with the cupcake to make each decadent bite immaculate. It's safe to say that this cupcake hit the spot and satisfied the craving, and that I will be returning to try more flavors! Although they are fairly classic, the flavors are so unique and delicious in their own way to make that their distinctive quality. Definitely recommend this place for a sweet and simple dessert! read more

Huh!!! Imagine that... 7 years after my first review and Midnite Confections' are STILL THEE BEST / my favorite cupcakes in the DMV. First... They were closed on my Black Friday 2014 wedding date and opened their cupcakery for that morning JUST to make and deliver my wedding order. Second... they have remained SUPER consistent with the cupcakes being perfectly moist while also with a de density we love and are still as rich and flavorful as the first time one ever graced my lips. As an update, the butter pecan cupcake has been perfected since my review from 7 years ago and is now one of my top faves in addition to their tried and true Midnite, Black Velvet, and Birthday Cake cupcakes all served and thoroughly enjoyed on 11.28.14 for our wedding and about to be devoured on 6.4.2020 for the 4th time during the Covid-19 shutdown which brings me to my third and final update... Third and most importantly: Black owned small businesses don't always have the best rep for reliability and customer service experience but this family owned and operated establishment has an outstanding level of service that has never faulted during any single encounter or visit and we've been there dozens of times. I recall their always offering us cold bottled water on hot Summer days and always being upbeat and friendly whether during a quick stop in or when we've needed last minute bulk orders. They've never made a mistake with our very specific orders nor has any batch of cupcakes from them ever had a bad one in the bunch, even from their truck at L'Enfant Plaza. During the pandemic, they've remained open and ready to serve the public their delectable treats, with lightning fast speediness and order accuracy, so they're my Quarantine heroes read more

An adorable small cupcakery. The cupcakes were absolutely delicious and I loved the pecan chocolate chip cookie. The employee was kind and helpful. We were visiting in town and stopped by three days on a row to enjoy these desserts. Highly recommend this shop! read more

Had a sweet tooth I couldn't shake and decided to stop in for a couple cupcakes. Popped in on a late Friday afternoon and was pleased that there were options available. There was only one person in front of me which allowed me to witness a wonder customer service exchange. The guy was equally kind and helpful during our exchange - always a bonus. I ordered two from the regular menu: Sublime-inal (a lemon cupcake) and Salted Caramel. It didn't have a written description but I went rogue anyway and also got one Sinnabon flavor from the special menu. Of the three, the best tasting one was the Sinnabon. It had flavor throughout. The other two seemed to need the frosting for flavor and I like to wipe most of it off to taste the cake. I was also a little disappointed that the lemon cupcake didn't taste quite lemony. I was expecting that one to be my favorite. Maybe I need to try different flavors and find a new fav. read more

Best cupcakes in Maryland. Began getting them 5 years ago and they're still delicious.

In need of a sweet lil pick-me-up? Head over to Midnite CC! I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to pop into this adorable shop earlier today and I highly recommend it. First I had to deal with the bane of my existence (aka parking). After I secured a quick spot knowing I'd be popping in and out of the shop, I crossed the snowy streets to obtain my sweet confection! Midnite CC only allows 4 people inside at a time to account for spacing inside and of course, requires a mask to enter. Thankfully, there was only 1 other customer inside so I didn't have to wait in the cold! I was pleasantly surprised and relieved to find out that the inside of Midnite CC did not have that sickeningly sweet smell that is characteristic of many cake shops (can you tell I don't like that smell?). There is a variety of cupcakes to choose from and cookies as well. I ordered 3 cupcakes that particularly called to me: Midnite (chocolate), Strawberry, & Full Moon (vanilla). The staff member was really friendly and bagged up my goodies to go. The cupcakes were packaged perfectly in their own containers so I did not have to worry about squishing them on my drive back home. The real party for my tastebuds began once I dug into my cupcake at home. The Midnite Cupcake was a chocolate-lovers dream! The frosting was incredibly rich, but not overly so. You know how sometimes the frosting is so good but the cake part of the cupcake is underwhelming? This was definitely not one of those situations! The cake was just as good as the frosting and overall, a true delight. None of the cupcake tasted egg-y, burnt, undercooked, or milky (all experiences I've had im the past). I look forward to trying the other cupcakes (trying to wait to reward myself!). I hope to come back to Midnite CC to try some of their other offerings, and perhaps they'll have some vegan items on their menu next time (wink wink, nudge nudge)? Thanks Midnite CC! read more

Solid cupcakes with a huge selection of flavors. Some of the cupcakes are very oily - specifically the carrot cake one. I'd stay far away from those as they are drowning in oil. The strawberry cupcake and lemon cupcake are two of my favorites and packed with flavor. Very simple establishment - go in, choose flavors, pay, and leave. Not a place to go if you're looking for a friendly chit chat, but a good place to get a sweet treat to satisfy a craving. Cupcakes are around $3.50 a piece, so not super cheap for a standard home-sized cupcake. read more

I keep writing in my Yelp reviews that "I am not a sweets person." Frankly, I think it is just self denial at this point. For Midnite Confection's, I am a sweets person. Throughout covid-19, MCC has been open for walk-ins/carry-out and delivery. I've casually popped in for a cupcake and was in and out in under two minutes. Let me tell ya, they don't make it hard for you to add some sweets to your diet days. But who is complaining? If you are looking for something to satisfy your sweet tooth, this super soft icing will hit the spot. read more

Ordered a dozen cupcakes ( Signature Sampler) to help celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. This was my first time ordering here and it was a great experience! I ordered during COVID-19 and there was no delay in communication or my order. I even needed to change the pickup time and they had no problem 24 hours before. I do wish that they had a better online ordering system, but dealing with a person was also nice! The cupcakes themselves were gorgeous and the icing takes the cake!!! Great customer service and product. Will be back! Oh the cookie wich was also awesome. I ordered one with a coconut cookie, a chocolate chip cookie and buttercream filling. Wow. Just Wow. This is going to be a new celebratory treat! read more

Always my first cupcake choice -- cake as good as the icing and the icing's fantastic. Fresh with fast, friendly service...

These cupcakes are Divine. I prefer homemade cupcakes to the over the top way too much frosting types and these cupcakes are the perfect elevated homemade type. When you go into the store to order they put on the fresh frosting right there. After I taste tested a few, I put in an order for a couple dozen and some minis! I love that they offer minis. They will be my new go to cupcake place whether it's for just a craving or a party. read more

There are a couple places I have to stop at anytime I'm in Baltimore & Midnite Confections is at the top of the list. Every cupcake I've had from here has been delicious. Moist, the frosting is the perfect amount of sweet without being overly sweet & so creamy. My absolute favorite is The Playboy cupcake. A good carrot cake recipe is hard to find but when I tell you they nailed it, I mean they nailed it. You can tell that their treats are baked with love. It's a 10/10 for me. read more
