I want to share an experience from my daughter's Sweet 16 this week because one local Americus business truly saved the day. I ordered a custom cake weeks in advance and drove nearly an hour to pick it up the day of her party. When I arrived, the cake was already cracked. I waited while it was repaired, but after driving home I discovered it was actually in worse condition than when I left. With a Sweet 16 party happening that evening, there was no time to go back and start over. Thankfully another local bakery stepped in at the last minute and repaired the cake so it could still be used for the celebration. They didn't have to do that, but they did -- and I'm incredibly grateful. The original bakery did refund the cake, which I appreciate. However, they declined to reimburse the additional repair cost that was required to salvage the cake in time for the party. When I followed up privately to ask if that portion could be reconsidered, the owner stopped responding to my messages. Milestone birthdays only happen once, and this cake had been ordered weeks in advance. Based on this experience, I would encourage customers to think twice before relying on this business for an important celebration. Huge thanks again to the local bakery that stepped in and helped save my daughter's Sweet 16. ETA: Now that the owner has chimed in, I realize I should have mentioned that the offer to repair the cake was impossible because of the time frame. I scheduled pick up for noon, but didn't arrive home and discover the problem until nearly 2:00. As a single parent, who had a child to pick up from school, and a 6:00 party to host, making another 2 hour round trip drive was impossible. read more

First things first. Small cakes' strawberry cheesecake is hands down the best flavor they offer. What's not to love about a strawberry cake with chunks of cheesecake in the mix and then covered in cream cheese frosting??? There was no question about who was making my wedding cake! The customer service that was offered, the attention to detail, and the fact that my cake looked EXACTLY how I envisioned is the reason why they will always have my business. My boho themed cake was a show stopper and I am very proud and impressed with the baker's talent! On a more casual note, a small cupcake any day of the week is also justified. Thursdays is the best flavor day, but don't take my word for it...try them out ASAP! They have the cutest little shop in town! read more

Love this little small business! They have such moist cupcakes that are delicious and aren't overbearingly sweet. They are kind of pricey, but they are a small business so we completely understood why. They had a variety of flavors to choose from along with seasonal items. I love that they have a rewards program, such a good incentive for returning customers. I definitely recommend this business! read more

Smallcakes - Naked Two Layer Wedding Cake - Desserts Near Me - Albany, Georgia

I'm sorry but we were disappointed. Too much frosty and that is where the flavors were trying to be. I was eating straight sugar. The cupcakes were moist but they tasted like they came from a Betty Crocker box. I'm glad I got a taste before I spent a lot of money on a cake for a special occasion. The lemon cupcake tasted like medicine. The cookies and crème seemed to be the best tasting cupcake. read more

These cup cakes are delicious they really are like small cakes. I purchased an assortment of small cakes for my grand daughter and they were a huge hit. You can get a milkshake made fresh from any flavor you like and man it is good. And if you are like me you can get a small shot glass of icing. Oh yeah. Man it is good. Kinda pricey but worth it. read more

The cupcakes are super moist, decadent and delicious!! The perfect treat for a special occasion or celebration.

Cupcakes are good, sometimes a little too much frosting for me and a little too sweet but that's solely taste preference. Good selection and the cake is usually very moist. Minus 1 star for service, every time I go in there it feels pretty awkward. Those behind the counter seem like they don't want to be there and not very friendly. Actually they can be PRETTY uptight which adds to the unfriendly feeling. My hubby and friends noticed that too . and kind of make us not want to go back there if there was other options. read more

Great experience with this location!!!! Customer service was next to none. Debbie was very knowledgeable on all the cupcakes. And I was inquiring about a cupcake to Lindsay the owner and it's only available on a certain day. But she made it because she said she is all about the customer. That alone spoke volumes!!!.... Thanks so much for an awesome experience! read more

Awesome cupcakes! Different specials every day. Even doggy cakes for the special pooch in your life. Tip: Give a cupcake as a gift or a reward for doing something special or doing a good job at work. You would be surprised how much people appreciate just a small token of appreciation. And who doesn't LOVE a cupcake? (I started a trend at my office..just sayin')..... read more

Friendly service and a moist, flavorful cake are let down by cloyingly sweet frosting that doesn't vary much between flavors. They'd run out of their mini-cupcakes by the time we'd gotten there but maybe those are better balanced? And apparently you get a free cupcake on your birthday, so that's pretty neat. The decor is cute without reeking of Pinterest. This place was a pleasant surprise in a town with a shocking paucity of baked goods. If they had some ice cream to go with tweaked cupcakes they would raise the bar of the dessert game in Albany. read more

Tbh this is overpriced for such a mediocre cupcake. Red velvet cupcakes was awful and extremely disappointed. This makes me NEVER want another one in my life. This experience scarred me. This cupcake was overall a nuisance to my tastebuds. read more

My husband and I recently moved to the area. We are trying all the different bakeries. I love to bake myself so I expect the food I get from a bakery to be great (just like the food I bake :)) I was excited to eat the cupcakes from here especially when I saw the sign that said as seen on food network. I remembered seeing them on cupcake wars (I LOVE that show!) I got four cupcakes and it cost $12 and some change. I am not going to lie I dug into them as soon as I got into my car. I was a little worried though when I took a whiff of the cakes and they did not smell appealing at all. They smelled very artificial. I tried their chocolate cupcake with cream filling. I really wasn't very impressed. The cake part was very moist, which was nice. However the flavor of the cake wasn't great and the icing was awful. They told me their best cupcake was their red velvet so I tried that one later and it was awful. The cake, the icing, the taste, the smell it all was awful. I cannot believe that this cupcake is their best cupcake or their best seller. Last week we tried some cupcakes from The Cakery and it was much better also much cheaper. I really can't believe how smallcakes stays in business with cupcakes that are so awful. They just taste very artificial, very bad. Trust me keep on driving to the Cakery, save some money and your taste buds. read more
