    So appreciative that they were willing to bake me a pound cake birthday cake and it was absolutely delicious and beautiful. So hard to find a bakery that will bake a pound cake birthday so every year, it is a challenge as the ones from previous years did not turn out well. I have been everywhere including the Watergate Bakery with no luck. Smallcakes Annapolis did a wonderful job and their customer service is absolutely great. Highly recommended!

    Bottom Line: Beautiful and delicious cupcakes perfect for a special occasion or special treat. Wow! This place is great. It had been on my list of places to try for a long time and I finally made it on a Sunday afternoon. The interior is bright and cute and the cupcakes are whimsical and pretty. When I was there they had about eight to ten meticulously decorated cupcake flavors. We chose a birthday cake cupcake and a peanut butter chocolate cupcake. Both were so yummy! The cake was light and airy and the frosting was dense and decadent. Smallcakes also has ice cream but for me I'm all about the baked goods! The employees were energetic and friendly.

    I'm always in search of a good cake or cupcake. I stopped here today right before closing time. I was greeted by a bubbly staff member. Options were limited due to the time. I opted for the red velvet cupcake and a lemon cupcake. Talk about moist! I was hesitant and expected a stale cupcake but the red velvet was fresh. They also have ice cream that I need to try. I'll be back in the future at a better time.

    I absolutely love this place, but I'm going to come right out and say it, why only have the strawberry shortcake cupcake on Wednesday only ‍ that's by far the best one. Please change that. But yes all the cupcakes here are really really good no matter what you get, they know what they are doing. Also try the cookies and cream one. Very good

    I recently placed an order with Smallcakes for a custom birthday cake for my Dad who was turning 80 along with cupcakes. I was familiar with the business because I had purchased cupcakes before and they were delicious. I wasn't sure that would be the case with the cake, but I am happy to say that the cake was equally delicious. Not only was the product fresh and great tasting, the ordering process was easy and efficient. I requested that my order be delivered and they were on time and the cake looked fantastic. I would highly recommend them for your sweet needs.

    Another win for small cakes on Riva Rd. We got some Valentine cupcakes. Nothing to say but a big THANK YOU!

    Custom cake, carrot cake

    I must say this bakery went above & beyond my expectations. I've never had any of their pastries nor been to the bakery before . However, I took a leap of faith trusted them and I must say customer service was a phenomenal from time of inquiring to ordering & picking up. They helped me with customizing the cake and definitely went above & beyond. The carrot cake was delicious and moist, my husband was very pleased and happy. I could give this bakery 20 stars! Thank you.

    Okay cupcakes and ice cream here but the staff is really nice! The cupcakes are yummy but nothing to write home about. The ice cream could be creamier and more flavorful. The smash is like $8 (a cupcake with ice cream in between- see photo) and I thought it was good but I could go somewhere else for a better cupcake and ice cream. The staff was super nice and friendly. The only real complaint I have is one worker was handling the cash register and the ice cream. Even though she wasn't directly touching the ice cream, it's still pretty unsanitary. Given that the cupcakes and ice cream are pretty expensive ($3-4) and the taste was eh, I'm not sure I will be back.

    The cupcakes are good, it's moist and not too sweet. The frosting is VERY Decadent and sweet! The unfortunate part of the different flavors is that they use the same base cupcake(vanilla and chocolate) and change the frosting. I was hoping the lemon drop would be a lemon cake...nope just a normal vanilla...same for the salted caramel and wedding cake. The cookies and cream and peanut butter crunch..both just chocolate cake. The strawberry and relief were the only other "flavored" cake, which were good! The frosting is very rich that each bite had to have frosting in order to have a "flavorful" which was hard because the frosting is very sweet! Frosting should enhance the cupcake, not over power it. The decor of each cupcake is beautiful!

    Absolutely amazing! Have been meaning to try this place since 2019 and finally got around to try it and I'm so glad I did!! I got a ash Cake! My smash cake was a pink chocolate cupcake (chocolate cake, pink icing) and Oreo ice cream. Def give it a try! They had so many cupcake choices to choose from

    I really wanted to like this place when a friend suggested it. He and his wife stumbled upon it and knowing I love cupcakes. So, I made the trip on the way home and walked in. The space was. Ice and the aroma of cupcakes filled the air. It was clean and there was seating so you could enjoy your cupcakes quickly! We walked in and saw a customer on the phone sitting down. We saw a few folks in the back. We thought they stepped in the back for a moment so, we looked around. We were standing there for about 6 min and I rang the bell. No one came forward so, I rang it again no one and then this little guy came from the back with a apron on cute kid and said hi can I help you. . Then a little girl maybe around 12. She greeted us and then took out order. A women stepped out front and also said hi. We ordered the chocoholic cupcake and a wedding cakes. They were decent but I would not say great. I would try them again as a local option and would say they are the best tasting I've had in Annapolis. Again they were decent not great but would go there again.

    Do they have vegan gluten free cakes there?

    Yes, but not daily. So, call to check the items for that day. They will make a requested item but give them 48 hours.

Having said that, it was pretty well run and after waiting in line I found two registers waiting and was able to order a variety of baked goods and a fresh sandwich, which were prepared for me quite speedily. I wouldn't expect to be in and out immediately at peak times, but for me it was maybe forty-five minutes to wait in line, get food, and eat my sandwich. They offer good options for special dietary needs. The vegan sandwich is based on Old Bay marinated tofu, and they are not kidding about that. It is really, really Old Bay flavored. The tomato and avocado livens things up, but honestly the best part of the sandwich was still the sourdough bread, which is fair enough for a bakery. The spread of pastries I acquired was resplendent in quality and variety, and I will be happy to continue trying out all the Black Market locations to see which one is the most convenient.

The efficiency from start to finish was amazing. The breakfast sandwich was awesome. The sourdough bread was perfect and all of the ingredients were really fresh. The presentation of the assembled and packaged sandwich was a ten. Though so many menu items looked delicious, I had to try the oatmeal cream pie- it was amazing. The cookies were buttery and soft. The cream filling was soft and sweet. I would definitely return for another breakfast sandwich.
