    Simply sweet Cupcakes sidewalk view

    My grandmother, sister, and I came here to try out the Cupcakes since they were on Cupcake Wars. The shop itself is cute and the cupcakes are displayed nicely in a glass case with labels so you can tell which cupcakes are which. The woman working there made it seem like we were bothering her, when we went to pick the flavors we wanted. We ended up getting 6 so that we could try a bunch of the flavors. I think it was about $16 which I think is probably par for the course price-wise. I had 2 cupcakes: the Triple Chocolate and the Chocolate Raspberry. I absolutely LOVED the triple chocolate. The mousse/pudding in the middle was amazing! The chocolate raspberry had a raspberry gel type filling which I did not like and ended up tossing. So it's all personal preference with the fillings I guess.

    Cute storefront on an otherwise boring block. Went on a Friday afternoon so there wasn't much foot traffic. Guitar store down the block was closed and their sign caught my eye- I love cupcakes! Definitely looks family run, with an older woman and child in the back area, and lots of big cupcakes in the display! Pretty uniform in size and design. The turtle cupcakes and lemon cupcakes both looks great, topped with a lemon drop and walnuts and caramel. The chocolate cake was rich, the lemon had curd in the middle, and my day was made. Buttercream was whipped more like whipped cream, but still flavorful. Lovely surprise treat!

    I used to watch Cupcake Wars all the time while doing cardio (I know, seems counterintuitive), so when I found out one of the winners was practically in my back yard, in EHC of all places, I was definitely excited to try it out. Now after several years, they've yet to disappoint! Simply Sweet pops up all around town, cakes at weddings, selling out at festivals and killing it in their own little store front. Now I'm particular about cupcakes, annoyingly so. If it's not filled and frosted, don't waste my time. But man, Simply Sweet hits the nail on the head. I've tried a number of flavors over the years but the PMS cupcake still comes out on top. It's a beautifully moist chocolate cake, filled with creamy chocolate mousse/pudding, topped with peanut butter frosting, caramel, peanuts for texture and edible glitter for pizzaz. One thing I can't stand is when desserts are too sweet, like yes I'm eating sweets, but I'm not looking to drown in sugar. This cupcake is so perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness balanced by the saltiness from the peanut butter and deep rich flavors from the chocolate cake. It's a real home run!

    Cupcakes are so BOMB!!…read more Now the reason for 3 stars is because customer service was awful. The cupcakes have no name on them at the display so when I proceeded to ask the worker which ones were which, she directed me to the menu above and told me to read it. A menu with no pictures, just wording and the cupcakes below did not appear to follow the wording. For instance, root beer float infused cupcakes looked like a rainbow cupcake with a cherry on top. How am I supposed to know that's a root beer float? Common courtesy goes a long way. I did not receive that here and the worker was very annoyed by my questions. I kept it simple not to bother her and just got 4 cupcakes. I'll be back for sure because the cupcakes were so darn good but I hope I get better service next time.

Coconut macaroon was delish. We decided to grab some more goodies before we left, cheesecake delicious, strawberries and cream couldn't try because the strawberry on top went bad after only a few days of having purchased it. Red velvet is delicious, love the cream cheese frosting that tastes like cream cheese more than other bake shops make it. I would definitely come bake to this shop, cupcakes were moist, they just need to lessen the sugar on the frosting a bit.

    I thought I'd written a review about this place before but to my shock I had not…read more I have been coming here since the day they opened, infrequently beacuse I am diabetic but when I want to spoil my body with delicious sugar, honey, this is *IT*. Now I could tell you all about how perfectly tasty everything is. From the classic banana puddings (I prefer the caramel version myself,) to the cookies, to the pineapple upside-down mini cakes. Yes, I could tell you that. But I want to speak to something deeper. I want to speak to belonging and community; and to fairness. As a biracial person with a brown sister, I feel the pull to support black and brown businesses. It's not a secret. And sometimes you do it, and sometimes you privately think "Damn. I wanna be supportive but this place is a mess." Then there's Sweet Life. NOT that. FILLED with good product at a great price, delivered by owners and staff who actually give a damn about being loving and supportive to all different types of people. And did I mention the sweets are POPPIN'? And to that statement of fairness. Today I came in to place an order, and when the price came up, for a moment I thought "Damn. That is a lot higher than I remembered, but I am not about to question them. They set the price and that price is what they deserve." So I paid. But then I noticed there was more in my bag that I'd asked for, and that there had been a miscommunication. When I tell you that this miscommunication was corrected with swiftness *AND* a smile. No shade. No drama. Just an "Ooops, oh well, here's your refund on the balance." I know this seems very basic but we all know it isn't. We have all been in that awkward situation where as a customer we have to point out an error, and the vendor turns it into a Shakespearan tragedy. Not Sweet Life. "Oops. Sorry! Fixed. Love you." So, to recap: Stunningly delicious sweets. Prices fair as hell. Communicative, inclusive staff doing the right thing. You need to take those money dollers and haul your ass over here TODAY. Now...where did I put my insulin pen?

    As yall can probably see I am a loyal fan to this place and the fact that they were closed for so…read morelong really broke my heart. BUT I AM SO HAPPY TO REPORT THEY ARE BACK OPEN AND TASTE JUST AS GOOD! Go support this business so they don't have to worry about the doors closing again.

    So yesterday, July 31st I was going to bring my mom lunch and she has been asking for cupcakes. I…read moreremember finding this place because it's in the same plaza as my chiropractor's office. The cupcakes look amazing and they're not bad. I just bought three for three dollars each, they're a little on the small side, but I guess that's where we are now. They offer different size options for different prices, but not in individual varieties. The churro Locos was definitely fresher than the other two and by far the best of the three. Taste in texture, amazing. the Red Velvet was OK and so was the carrot cake cupcake. I would definitely go back and try different ones but I wasn't as blown away as I thought I was going to be because they look incredible! I might be a little more picky than the average person so make your own judgment.

    BRICK: Brie and I were thrilled to join the Yelp New Jersey Elite Experience at Mr. Cupcakes to…read morecheck out the shop and indulge in a free cupcake. I kid you not, this place has 40 flavors of cupcakes including gluten free options and it was so much fun to choose my selection. I wish I could have gotten one of each because they all looked fantastic. I ended up going home with the Holy Cannoli, Churros Locos, Birthday Cake, and Dunakroos flavors. I was greeted by Madison who has such a happy and friendly personality and shared with me the dog friendly rules. We are so happy they allow leashed and friendly dogs inside to order with you, dine inside the beautifully designed and decorated space, and join you at the outdoor tables in front of the building. There is also a wonderful selection of freshly baked dog treats including pup cakes, biscuits, grr-nolis (cannolis)! And, if that wasn't enough they have prepackaged dog treats, cupcake mix for dogs, and dog toys! Indulge in a cupcake as a special treat, order a catering platter for your party, and raise money for your organization through their fundraising program. In addition to Brick, there are 3 other locations in NJ in Clifton, Hawthorne, and Paramus.
