I recently read a meme that said "You cant buy happiness, but you can buy cupcakes and thats kind of the same thing!" My interpretation of that? Keep calm, get your life, and have yourself a cupcake (or two)- from Smallcakes! I love sweets and Lord knows I LIVE for a good cupcake which is why I always pay this place a visit when my sweet tooth kicks in. With so many different flavors, its sometimes hard to choose but I can truly say most of the cupcakes Ive had from here have been really good. They are super moist and fulfilling, and did I mention huge? At $3.75 per cupcake, you DO get your moneys worth! It seems as though the cakes have gotten a tab bit smaller, but are still sizable for a cupcake. They use buttercream frosting which is my favorite- definitely the "icing on the cake" to the experience, pun intended. There are a couple flavors Ive had where I felt like the icing was way too sweet though- the Pink Vanilla being one as well as the Red Velvet cupcake. Warning: they are very heavy handed with the frosting. That being said, the struggle to keep your cupcake from tumbling over gets REAL half way through the smash. If you lose that fight, dont feel bad. It happens to the best of us. Some of my favs are the Peanut Butter Cup, Carrot Cake, and my absolute favorite- the Blueberry cake! That Blueberry cupcake is life! Its a specialty flavor so when they have it I always end up buying one because it tastes as if its made from scratch. One time they had a Margarita flavored cupcake that I tried just because I was curious. So glad I did because it was ever-ry-thing! They even have a Lemon flavored cupcake that Im a fan of and I dont even care for Lemon flavored stuff. My suggestion is to always try their specialty flavors, which in my opinion are better than the regular ones. If you happen to swing by close to closing time, the pickings tend to be pretty slim. At that point you are pretty much stuck with whats left from the day. Aside from having really good cupcakes, the employees here are very nice- always greeting you with a smile and sometimes a little conversation. Do ask for a loyalty card if you plan on being a regular. You get a stamp for every cupcake you purchase. 12 stamps= a free cupcake on your next visit. Clearly, I must keep my visits here to a minimum for obvious reasons- my workouts would be in vain and Id be humongous. BUT a cupcake every now and again aint never hurt nobody, right? That being said I will continue coming here to get my sweet tooth fix because my love for cupcakes just cant be shook. As long as Smallcakes is around, Im sure I wont be shaking it off no time soon!

I ordered a Birthday cake and a dozen cupcakes for party last friday. The cake is chocolate flavor with Raspberry whipped cream filling. It is very dry and I am not a fan of the taste either. The decorator was friendly but the end product is a disaster. The butter cream on the top and around the cake was dry and cracked all over. At $100 for a 10-inch cake I would definitely shouldnt have witnessed any of this. Now for the cupcakes I ordered them in vanilla flavor with strawberry whipped cream topping. The topping tasted synthetic like and inedible. I threw away all the 12 cupcakes and the price is around $26 for the cupcakes. I would completely stay away from this place if you do not want your event to be a disaster. PS: I have ordered birthday cakes and cupcakes 2-3 times in the past (my last order was in january before the last week one) which turned out awesome for the looks and taste. The old decorator was pretty good. This is a different decorator, though I am not very confident this time I thought at least the taste would be the same. But I was wrong. I will never go back.

A good store to order cupcakes from. They always have plenty of selection at hand, even during lunch hour and after work. The owner or head manager is very nice, I met her once. My husband won a dozen cupcakes here and there was a kerfuffle for a few days with all the different people who worked the front and didnt understand why Im picking up the cupcakes for my husband and not him and then we got a call from the manager who said shed handle it personally. We went home smiling with a dozen cupcakes to share with the family. Very clean store and would recommend.

The cupcakes are absolutely delicious and bigger than a regular cupcake!!! I just ate the chocolate chocolate fudge and I highly recommend this company. One thing I might suggest to the owners is an espresso machine to serve lattes, etc. I just stopped in there after lunch with some of my work colleagues and they were wishing that Smallcakes had other options other than the cupcakes and the home made ice cream they serve. Im sure it would increase revenue.

The cupcakes are beautiful and delicious and the staff are friendly. The first time I went in, I had no trouble getting my order in a timely fashion. However, on my second trip, they opened the store a few minutes late and they didnt have over half of the cupcakes frosted or even out to look at. When a business opens at 10am, I expect them to be ready for full service. If they improve on this, it will be a much more enjoyable experience.

I swung by here for the first time today to pickup cupcakes for my moms birthday. I picked out the Blueberry, Lemon, Pink Buttercream and some sort of chocolate vanilla cupcake. They were so good! We just cut them up and tasted them all. Will definitely be going back. Such a good simple gift!!

Quick and painless. Went in with no idea as to what to buy, but I went out with the right stuff for the meeting. Great job lady at the counter! Only thing I would criticize would be the packaging. If it could keep the smallest cupcakes in place at an angle, the product would be the best.

I got 4 different types of cupcakes for myself and coworkers. Everyone thought they were delicious! My pet peeve is to have a dry cupcake, and these certainly did not fit that description. They are super moist with really good flavor. Great presentation too, and friendly service!

Their cakes are very very low quality. You might as well go to your near by grocery store to get some cupcakes, thats how low quality their cakes are. I tried it twice thinking it would be diff but nope. Nothing close to its competitors ie crave cupcakes, sprinkles etc...

*Missouri City Location* The flavors are OK but they are literally just "OK". The chocolate peanut butter cake is good but the frosting is flavorless. I tried Key lime (my fav cupcake flavor) and it didnt taste of lime at all. The carrot cake is good though.

This place is terrible! Oh La La Cup Cakes and service is much better. Cashier forgot to complete order as instructed. I will not return. Cup Cakes are not that great. Dont be fooled by their television appearances and awards.

Absolutely fantastic! These people are always on the mark with customer service and quality! Ive purchased mini cupcakes on no less than 5 occasions from them and they are perfect every time. Love, love, love them!
