Highly recommended. The cupcakes were excellent; the cake was moist and tasty and they looked great.

We stopped at their food truck at an event recently, had a Turtle Cheesecake cupcake.. WOW! The swirls of buttercream was a mini mountain of goodness..Very sweet, creamy, homemade, not an exact cheesecake flavor but very tasty and complex to my sweet tooth. Cake itself was nothing special, kind of dry since it had been stored in refrigeration. Obviously the cake is only the supporting cast, while the frosting is the star. Now that may or may not be your thing. I surely couldn't eat much of this super sweetness. And while I usually prefer more of a balanced cupcake, I enjoyed mine. Very much so. Looking forward to trying more. read more

A friend of mine had been telling me to come try this place for awhile now and after finding Cupcakes By Lu on 81st and Harvard I wasn't sure about trying anyone else again. My daughter and I happen to be in the area so we decided to give them a try. We ordered the peanut butter cupcake, the cinnamon roll cupcake and the turtle one. The cupcakes are decorated nicely and are very pretty. The cinnamon roll had a nice flavor but the cake was very heavy and the icing...WAY to much and WAY to sweet! The peanut butter one had a peanut butter cup baked in the bottom (nice touch) and a good peanut butter flavor in the icing but again, very heavy and very sweet. The turtle was good but again..the frosting. If I remember reading correctly on their website these are doctored up cake mixes with some flair. They have the right concept but unless you like VERY sweet, cream cheese frosting piled high on a dense cupcake then this won't be your place. I wanted to like it but a normal person will probably be able to only eat one cupcake, won't finish the icing and will have to have something to drink or you'll have the cake stuck in your throat. I will have to stick with my Cupcakes By Lu on 81st and Harvard where the cake is moist and airy and the frosting is light as a feather and slightly sweet.(reminds me of whip cream) I can honestly sit down and eat 3 of her cupcakes at one sitting and want more. They are melt in your mouth good!!! Sorry Not Your Grandmothers Cupcakes iI wanted to like you but I'll have to pass. read more

I don't understand why the most recent reviews are three years old! I love the cupcakes and cookie sandwiches they make. Contrary to some of the lower-rated comments, I think the frostings, fillings and batter are very well made. Delicious! They have different specials for each day of the week, which is nice for me, because I'm a cheapskate... 4 stars instead of 5 because their everyday non-daily-special prices are just a little high. However, remember their cupcakes are FILLED, while most other bakeries do not make filled cupcakes. (In fact, I think they should advertise that, or at least add the words cream-filled to the signs/descriptions). read more

Serving the most unusual combinations of cupcakes. I purchase them as executive gifts. These aren't your run-of-the-mill bake sale cupcakes. Gourmet doesn't come close to describing them. I purchased 1.5 dozen yesterday to give as surprise gifts. The recipients were speechless with delight. read more

I agree with previous comments about the average/poor quality of the cupcakes. Definitely not better than something you could buy from the store or make at home (not even as good in my opinion). Walking in, my family and I noticed that the store was unclean (dirty floors), although cutely decorated. The girl who (kind of) greeted us was very unapproachable, awkward, unfriendly, and non-genuine. Icing was way too sweet and did not taste homemade--definitely had an artificial taste. The turtle cheesecake cupcake was dry and didn't even taste like it had a cheesecake frosting. We also tried the banana cream pie and lemon cupcakes which were just okay. We just wanted to support a local business but they didn't seem happy to have or help their customers. Sorry to say we won't be returning. read more

I LOVE cupcakes, so I really wanted to love this place. After walking in, you're immediately hit with the deliciously sweet smell of icing. The cupcakes are all adorably decorated, which made it hard to choose. We finally decided, but on the way home, the cupcakes started to melt (we live less than 5 miles away from the store, so if you're taking home cupcakes, you may want to keep that in mind)!! We get home and immediately start digging into the cupcakes. Sadly, the first bite I had of the cupcake included a piece of plastic. It looked like a corner of the plastic bags ready-to-make cake mixes are in, which makes me wonder if they even make these cupcakes from scratch.... read more

The service was so good when I went to the one in owasso and the cupcakes and even there snowcones are really good!! I'm just so sad they shut down in owasso read more

I got two cupcakes: Cha-Cha-Cherry Cheesecake & Save Second Base. The cherry cheesecake is pretty self-explanatory. The filling in the middle of the cupcake was a plus. The Save Second Base was very good! Strawberry cupcake, strawberry frosting, strawberry filling, just, STRAWBERRY everything! A piece of candy on top as well. & for the record, I went to their food truck that was located Downtown Tulsa, not at the store in Broken Arrow. Maybe I need to go to the store to try their Maple Bacon cupcake! read more

I love Gluten Free cupcakes on Thursdays! They are always delicious and stored in a separate fridge. The staff is always friendly, and they go out of their way to talk to my son and make him feel special. read more

I've ordered from this cupcake store multiple times for parties, birthdays, baby showers, etc. They have yet to let me down! They taste amazing, and everyone always raves about how good they are. I will always get my cupcakes from NYGC! read more

These are kept cold which make them very dry. I've tried them several times to see if maybe they just weren't fresh that day, but they are always the same. Also, they have way too much icing. The flavors are good and they look pretty though. The mini cupcakes are better- not nearly as dry. read more

Cupcakes taste okay and are decorated beautifully, but the mixes are straight from a box and the icing is from a can (exact same stuff you can buy at the grocery store). For nearly $3 per cupcake I would expect a made-from-scratch recipe instead of a highly processed corn starch/corn syrup blend. I didn't realize this before trying this local bakery, but I won't be going back for this reason. Better cupcakes can be purchased for cheaper at other local bakeries. Cashier was neither friendly or unfriendly. Tried to rush me through choosing flavors (I was purchasing four), but I hadn't been there before so I was unfamiliar. This cute bakery would benefit hugely from making their own mixes and having a quick customer service refresher with their staff. read more

This is probably my favorite cupcake place of all time. It's incredibly authentic and unique. The vibe of the store just makes me cheerful as soon as I enter, and the cupcakes? Amazing. I buy a dozen every time I go by. read more

I've been here twice now, and I really adore this place. The first time, I got a cookie sandwich, which was yummy and huge. I was splitting it with my mom, and we could barely finish it. We also each got a little "shot" of frosting. Basically, you just pick one of their frostings they put some in a plastic "shot glass" for you to eat. Their frosting is VERY sweet, but I love that, so this was a hit for me. Most recently, I had their Lemon the Dream cupcake. The cake was very moist and delicious. Again, very sweet frosting, so beware if you don't like that. I have a major sweet tooth, so it works for me. read more

The place is adorable and the owner and staff are very friendly. The Oreo cupcake was actually pretty tasty. All of the cupcakes are piled HIGH with super sweet buttercream frosting, so be prepared for a sugar bomb or to scrape some off. The cupcakes themselves are doctored up boxed mix. Not bad, but definitely not something I couldn't make myself. Overall, there are better cupcakes in Tulsa. Probably won't be back here. read more

These cupcakes were gorgeous but some how lacking a bit for taste. They were either too light or just not quite flavorful enough for our preferences. The selection is great though. read more

Before I found out I was gluten intolerant I used to eat here all the time. The cupcakes were moist and very flavorful. I recently found out that they offer gluten free cupcakes on certain days so decided to give them a try to satisfy my sweet craving. Unfortunately both cupcakes I purchased were dry and crumbly and I wound up throwing them away. I definitely recommend coming here for traditional cupcakes, but wouldn't recommend it for those who eat a gluten free diet. read more

They have good flavors and nice variety. Some of them are very sweet. A few of the ones I have tried have been a little dry. Over all its a nice place and a good local cupcake shop with some unique flare. read more

Never thought I'd say this, but there is such a thing as too much frosting. But I still love NYGC's cupcakes. Appreciate the creative flavor combos, the friendly service, and the peppy decor. Also like the size of the cupcakes - not too large and not too small. read more

Cupcakes couldn't be any yummier. I've had pumpkin, turtle, chocolate, and bacon. The staff was also axing when I needed to amend a large order I placed. So quick and helpful. Recommend for any parties/holiday. Adorable designs! Will be back!! read more

Just called here to order my grandma some get well soon cupcakes as she lives in Broken Arrow and loves chocolate. I order her the death by Oreo, the slow poke and sin is in. I live in Austin TX and the girl on the phone was so helpful, Madison, she promised to call after the cupcakes had been delivered, too sweet! I'm sure my grandma is going to enjoy, thanks for bringing me closer to my Grandma today!! read more

This place is great. They did some 80's themed cupcakes for my wife Bday and they were awesome.

Very pretty but not very good. The cake part was very dry and the massive amount of frosting was way to sweet. But, very pretty, like I said. Sorry. I usally love anything sweet. read more

These are the WORST cupcakes and here's why- at $3 per cupcake they are not worth it. the icing is commercial icing. If you're going to buy these you might as well go to Sams- they are $15 for 30. Seriously I was soooo disappointed. A cupcake shop should have homemade icing. THESE TASTE LIKE GROCERY STORE CUPCAKES. read more

Stopped by yesterday on my way into work and was I delighted! The place is darling, the staff friendly and the cupcakes GREAT! I surprised my co-workers with an afternoon snack and they LOVED them! SO pretty. I got a variety pack so everyone woud have a different experience. "Sin is In"-WIN! Lemon was to DIE FOR! Red Velvet-"my favorite!" says the staff. Great going girls---glad to have something in Broken Arrow!! read more
