Such yummy, moist and flavorful cupcakes . Wedding cake and Chocoholic are my absolute favorites, with German Chocolate cake as a close runner-up. Great selection of flavors and the daily specials are always fun (in July, they had a chocolate lavender cupcake). Smallcakes is always a great treat - stop by, you won't be disappointed! read more

Smallcakes A Cupcakery - Wedding Cake and German Chocolate Cake (Special Flavor, only on Thursdays) - Bakeries Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Our team had cupcakes to celebrate several birthdays, so a pre-order was placed with Smallcakes A Cupcakery. The order and pick up were smooth, and the cupcakes were excellent. I have had my fair share of cupcakes and I found these to be especially moist, and very creative on flavors and combinations of elements within. The order of 12 cupcakes lasted us a few days as they were so yummy and rich! I highly recommend checking Smallcakes A Cupcakery out! read more

I am a huge fan of these cupcakes. I have a super sweet tooth and the frosting to cupcake ratio is 50/50 which I love. The cupcakes are moist and last for days without going bad. I've even had them delivered through Yelp and the cupcakes show up perfect without the frosting getting smashed into the box. Overall great place and service. read more

Amazing cupcakes!! Seriously some of the most moist cupcakes I've ever had, and I love that they have so many flavors to choose from. The business itself is also so beautiful aesthetically. read more

We have used Smallcakes in the past and my son had some unusual request and they were able to create the perfect cake. We used them again this year and it was just as successful. What I like the best is we can email them a picture of what we want and it literally turns out exactly how we pictured it. A bit on the expensive side but well worth it. read more

So, I turned 43 last month. To add insult to injury...nobody got me a birthday cake. Not even a cupcake. My dear friend in LA woke my tired and grumpy self up at midnight to sing my Happy Birthday song. And 98 people I MIGHT know from Facebook posted birthday messages. But my local people totally forgot. I felt like Molly Ringwald in 16 Candles. Except I didn't have a cute guy in a red Porsche waiting for me. Heck, I didn't even have a weird nerd that wanted to steal my panties. AND...I'm legally blind and unable to run out and get my own freakin cake. My birthday was rescued by this awesome bakery. I ordered a dozen cupcakes for myself. I paid for them myself. I begged enough people that I got someone to pick them up and bring them to me! And I did not even offer to share. I skyped my LA birthday singer and showed him my treasures. He demanded that I stop crying over friends dropping the ball and put those goodies in my tummy! And I ate 12 cupcakes in 3 days! They weren't any exotic flavors but they were huge and perfect and worth every dollar. Lesson learned? Celebrate your own special occasion...birthday, job promotion, dumping a bad boyfriend, buying new shoes. It's YOUR life and your party. Get your cupcakes at this place...single servings of heaven. And I lost 4 pounds! Happy birthday to ME!!!!! read more

Smallcakes A Cupcakery - Cookies n Cream, Birthday Cake w/sprinkles, chocolate cake w/ pink frosting, chocolate cake w/ Carmel on top and a tiny pretzel - Bakeries Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Let me start by saying I am so glad I don't live anywhere near this establishment. Not because I don't like it but because I fear I would be a daily visitor and that wouldn't be good for my hips. I didn't even know about this place until I was browsing thru my entertainment book and found a coupon, so I talked my husband into driving over the other side of town so we could check it out. First impressions are everything right??? And I was impressed from the moment we parked out front, the store is bright and clean with a nice open display cabinet as you walk in showing all the cupcakes they have for sale. There is also a menu on the wall that shows you by the day what they have on the menu. There are certain cakes that they only have on said days. I decided to get myself the caramel cupcake and the birthday cupcake for my daughter, my husband picked out the peanut butter one and the cookies and cream for our son. The lady boxed them up in there cute little pink cupcake boxes (nice touch) and off we went, with my mouth watering the whole drive home. I don't think I even took my jacket off before I had the box open and took my first bite of my cupcake and wow oh my gosh these have to be the most moist cakes I have ever tasted and the frosting was out of this world. Everyone agreed that this place is a winner and we will return. The people who think this place has cupcakes comparable to grocery store cupcakes blow my mind because I have never tasted a cup cake from a grocery store that can even come close to comparing to the cakes we had. Yep this place is a keep read more

I've been to Small Cakes a lot of times but I've never written a review. Yesterday they had cotton candy cupcakes as one of their customer favorites. It's my favorite but I couldn't make it there before they closed. They were so kind in letting me purchase over the phone and then pick them up today. I can't say enough about how great their cupcakes are! You can't just buy one, you'll regret it when you get home that you didn't get more. The flavors that seem weird turn out to be the best! They have ice cream now too and hands down it beats any ice cream shop in town. The seating area is small but so quaint and welcoming. I love stopping by for a scoop of ice cream and a cupcake. They have a frequent buyer program or loyalty program and I've already earned a cupcake. You can save up your points for a dozen later too. Thanks for the best cupcakes in the world and for accommodating me. read more

I love this place! Not just for cupcakes, but also for regular cakes. It has become my go to place. And the people who work there are so attentive and want to make sure you're happy. I asked if they can write on the cake, but the person wasn't there. They gave me a little sign to put on top! It was so perfect. read more

Let me start by saying my daughter and I watch Cupcake Wars ALL THE TIME - so this may be a bit harsh... Good cupcakes! Certainly better than any grocery store cupcake, but not crazy, fantastic like I was hoping... I had the 'chocoholic' cupcake, the kids had 'strawberry lemonade'... Mine was pretty blah :-( Kids loved the frosting on theirs, but said the cake was 'plain vanilla'... They do offer cupcake decorating parties - I'm sure my daughter and her friends would LOVE that! read more

Honestly I have been a fan of this place for a very long time, which made my experiences here the last times I visited especially disheartening. As much as I hate to say it, the staff here is incredibly rude and they almost seem upset at you for being in the building. It's almost like should I apologize for wanting to support you guys? That's the definite attitude of the staff here. Very unfriendly. You guys are lucky your cupcakes are so good because if they weren't you'd definitely lose my business for good. read more

THANK YOU SMALLCAKES TEAM!!!!! I was the proud owner of these amazing cupcakes! The detail in them is off the charts and FAR better then I ever expected!!! Bridgette really knows her flavors, colors, and how well everything will go together. To see the finished product was something else! Wow! Wow! Wow!!! My friend absolutely melted when she saw them! I cannot recommend Smallcakes enough! read more

Thank you for the special cupcake order you created for me today of 24 cupcakes for my son and his classmates for his birthday. They were amazing and you did it with two hours notice, more than appreciated! We have been to your location before and have grabbed one or two cupcakes at a time and have always been pleased. I would have ordered a cake for his birthday but you were closed for the holiday, next time I'll make sure to order early! Thank you again, great job! read more

Stopped by here after eating lunch - understand that I have a huge sweet tooth. So this seemed like the place to stop. Lots of cup cakes, but not a big selection. Got my coconut and took a bite. It was moist and frosting was good. I really wanted to find something special and rave about a place(someplace like Sprinkles - if you have had one you know what I mean). Unfortunately this wasn't it. The cupcakes were good, but not special. Nothing here to make them stand out over any other cupcake vendors. read more

First time eating here. Very moist and soft cupcakes!!! Service great and prices are very reasonable. I also tried the ice cream and that was wonderful too!!! I will be back! read more

Great customer service! Thank you! I emailed around 6am for pick up if a dozen mini and received communication back within 90 min. Excellent customer service and product! They also have adorable puppy cupcakes that my dog loved! Support local bakers! read more

Amazing cupcakes!! They have a seasonal Fall cupcake flavor. The guy behind the counter said it was made with pumpkin, apple, cranberries, and it is topped with pecans. Kind of reminded me of a spice cake too. Soooo good, must try! My sister tried it also and she called it Thanksgiving in a cupcake. The coconut, red velvet, and lemon cupcakes are delicious as well. read more

My new cupcake place!!!! After being spoiled by the local cupcake spots in DC I thought I was going to have a hard time finding a good place to get cupcakes here, but Smallcakes is that place! Love the Orange Creme, that's a daily flavor. The lemon and strawberry are also favorites and daily favorite. They have a special flavor every day of the week, which makes you have to come back all the time. I'm addicted! read more

Wonderfully delicious !! Nice staff and wonderful dog favorite vanilla with pink frosting

There really isn't anything special about the cake part of the cupcakes. Most of the cupcakes are basic chocolate or vanilla cake. The frosting is the star of the show here, and even then, Pillsbury or Duncan Hines frosting is comparable. $4.26 (after tax) is a bit much for a single cupcake, but you can't put a price on my kiddo's face after getting a cupcake as a reward. read more

Got some cupcakes for a friends birthday and they were a hot! They have so many options and I got to say that the cookies and cream and the sprinkles were my absolute favorite ! SOOO GOOD!! read more

Tried Smallcakes because of all the great reviews and I just don't get it. These were some of the most sickeningly sweet and flattest tasting cupcakes I've ever had. The frosting doesn't taste like real buttercream, and the chocolate tastes like cheap cocoa powder and chemicals. Grocery store cupcakes have more complex flavor. At around $45/dozen with tax, this place is hard to understand. read more

Our family loves cupcakes and seeks them out. Driving through town, we stopped to try these. We ordered and assortment and every single one was delicious. The cupcakes were flavorful and moist. The service was fantastic as well. read more

Some days you crave a cupcake. Let's be real, you crave a cupcake every day but some days you let yourself have a cupcake. This place has good cupcakes - not great, not the best you've ever had - but really dang good. I went with a classic vanilla/chocolate combo and got the dark chocolate for my dad who was visiting. He took a solid day to eat his but mine was gone in a few short minutes. One of the staff, a younger girl, was really sweet and even had a cupcake frosted especially for me. Another staff member, an older man, was a little rough and didn't crack a smile the whole time. read more

We came in just before closing on a Sunday for some emergency cupcakes and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. The man at the register was very talkative and friendly. We got a variety of cupcakes and they went over very well. The cupcakes are a little pricey when compared to say smiths or Walmart but you get what you pay for because they were great. When we need fancy cupcakes again we will be back! read more

Smallcakes A Cupcakery - Bakeries Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

The place is nice and the staff was pleasant enough. We got a chocolate creme cupcake and a cookies and cream. The place was quite busy and the selection minimal. In fairness we were there two hours before they closed so they probably weren't looking to put more out. The cupcakes themselves seemed spendy for a basic cupcake, no special flavor (because the special cupcakes were gone). I was pleased that the cupcakes weren't dry. Would I let people know the place existed if they wanted cupcakes? Sure. Would I recommend it as a place not to miss? Not necessarily. read more

Smallcakes A Cupcakery - Bakeries Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

My family has stopped into Small Cakes on 3 occasions. We keep trying to like this place but we have decided not to try it anymore. Each time we have been in the staff couldn't be more unfriendly. Once or twice you might think they are just having a bad day but all three times we have been met with unhappy faces and watched as other customers come in for information and are treated like they are not wanting of their business! The place itself is cute and their cupcakes are large and pleasant to the eye. The first time I tried the Birthday cake cupcake and couldn't finish it because it was much too sweet so I thought I needed to order another flavor. I have since ordered the lemon drop and cookies and cream icing with chocolate cake (dirt and worms for halloween). The cake was moist but lacking flavor in the chocolate. The lemon drop was good but I felt kind of ill after eating it. We love cupcakes but have decided that this place just isn't good enough to visit again. read more

I will not be back for these great tasting cupcakes. The cupcakes truly are delicious, it is a pity the staff and service is awful. They seemed rushed and upset they had to serve a long line of people. Then after telling them twice my treat was to eat "here" they still packed it in box and seemed bugged I sat down and ate it at the table "I guess you want a real fork" was the line I got as I unpacked my plastic eating utensils. Then while I ate I could hear all three staff complaining about a previous customer. Although they were in the next room, the giant open window to that room allowed me to hear all the details. I assumed that after I left they would start to all talk about me as well. When I was done I sat for a bit checking my Facebook, one associate was cleaning the plates right next to me but never offered to clear my things when it was obvious I was finished. So after clearing my own place, it was easy as all I had to do was throw everything away as it was packed in to-go box, I made eye contact with all three staff on my way and not one of them thanked me or wished me a good day. They all started at me as if thankful the place was now going to me empty so they could continue their gossip guilt free. All of this comes after I was warned about this place by a friend who tried to order for her graduation and was told "we are not a good fit for your cake, I am sure another baker can do your cake for you". I should have listened to her, but thought I would give them a try. We have several other local bakeries that have just as delightful treats but are grateful and respectful of their customers. I will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

Smallcakes A Cupcakery - Bakeries Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

These are probably the best cupcakes I have had in ABQ, better than average but not the stellar cupcakes of some other bakeries in bigger cities. The cake crumb was very good: fluffy, moist, tender and fresh. The frosting could use some work, it was a little fatty/waxy feeling on the tongue. They are pretty expensive at over $3/ea so be prepared for that. I bought a dozen for work and was shocked at the nearly $40 price for the box. The cupcakes are larger than your average cupcake though. Apparently this place has been on the Food Network and in some magazines as there are posters indicating this in the windows. Overall, I'd come back and try out a few other flavors. I would like to see a few more fruity options as most of the selection on the day I went were chocolate based. Not that I don't love chocolate! read more

Thanks so much for making our gender reveal cupcakes so perfect! They were totally delicious (we got cherry cheesecake and chocolate mocha) and they were so kind to let us call last minute as soon as we got the gender results.

As someone who has sampled many a cupcake, I can say without hesitation that Smallcakes are the very best. Not only are these cupcakes the most delicious in Albuquerque, but they are also better in comparison to any of the more famous national cupcake franchises. The cupcakes themselves are a generous size and extremely moist. I have even ordered several of the gluten-free options for my family members with wheat allergies and I those were equally as moist and soft as the original. I love the unique flavor combinations that are rotated in with the 15 staple cupcakes. Some of my favorites are Shirley Temple, Cocoa Rojo, and Caramel Crunch. Aside from all the wonderful treats, the staff at Smallcakes is equally wonderful and among the most friendly and genuine I have encountered in the food service industry. The women at the front counter are always quick, friendly, and helpful regardless of whether I am the only customer in the store or there's a birthday party of 15 in the next room. The owner also seems to be very hands-on, as he has been out front mingling with customers almost every time I have been in. This is a nice change of pace and I appreciate upper management that stay directly involved with their consumer base. read more

As someone who doesn't get to eat a whole lot of baked goods due to a wheat allergy, I'm so grateful when I find a decent tasting gluten free cupcake. What is even better is when it tastes like it's NOT gluten free, and that's exactly what you will find here! I have never had such amazing and moist cupcakes! Everyone who was working was incredibly polite and helpful. They also realized I was in a huge hurry and worked quickly to help me get out the door and on the way. The atmosphere is so fun on top of all of that! Definitely try the birthday cake and lemon cupcakes! AMAZING! read more

A friend ordered a cake for a small event he was having. For all of the hype the cake was decorated very poorly and we weren't impressed with the taste at all. I was very surprised considering all the hurrah about this place. read more
