OK guys….from one dessert critic to another THIS PLACE ROCKS! It’s the real deal….the naysayers blogging on dry cake need to revisit what “from scratch” cake is….if you grew up on the Duncan Hines cake mixes your grandma used to bake you will not like these little beauties but they are awesome! Cool, inventive flavors, sweet little cafe, and super friendly staff. And if you’ve visited other ccake shops worldwide these girls are on the cheap side. Check ‘em out for yourself! Great late night dessert spot.
I love the concept, but this place just doesn’t deliver. The cupcakes were definitely dry, which is kinda ridiculous when that’s all you bake. The frosting is good, but there’s almost too much of it.
The cupcakes were just lovely, but I only liked the frosting :( The cakes themselves were dry, as though they sat for a day.
This place is as darling as can be. And, the frosting is amazing—-delectable. I do find that the cupcakes are a bit on the dry side. Personally, I would prefer them to be more moist. My favorite is the What’s Up Doc? I really like the mini cupcakes—-you have to pre-order them. It would be fun if they offered them all the time. This would allow for people to have more than one flavor at a time. It is a good and cute place to stop in for a sweat treat.
Amazing frosting. The cupcakes serve more as a means of holding the amazing frosting , they’re like the cracker you use for a really great drip, kind of dry in and of themselves…but it’s the frosting you’re after here.
