We got our wedding cake and cupcakes for our guests from Love Kupcakes and are so glad we did! It was great to be able to have a mix of gluten free and regular cupcakes, and everything was so incredibly delicious. Everyone at Barista and Bites was super friendly, and they made the process easy. They also made our cake tasting a fun experience! Plus they have so many great flavor options. We had chocolate espresso, chocolate peanut butter, pumpkin spice, and cinnamon cream cheese and all were great! Thank you! More...

They made my baby shower cake for today and WOW what a delicious and beautiful cake. I have specific allergies and they were able to work around them so I could have cake at my shower. I'm just amazed at the great taste and presentation. Thank you so so much!! More...

Skeptical after buying 3 smallish cupcakes for $12. Brought them home to find cakes so moist they had a truffle like consistency, and expertly made buttercream and meringue frosting that was rich, light, and not too sweet. Definitely worth checking out.

Honestly some of THE best cupcakes, if not THE best cupcake I have ever had! They delivered to a brewery we were at to surprise my husband for his 35th birthday. We got the chocolate espresso and the cookie dough cupcakes and they were AMAZING.
I would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone and we are planning on coming back!!

When I was diagnosed with celiac disease, my dad tried a gluten free pizza and then told me that he felt very sorry for me (he hated it. ) I knew I needed gluten free dessert for my wedding, but also wanted my guests to enjoy it as well, so I had my Dad be the taste tester. He tried a few different bakeries in southern Maine that offered gluten free, and when he decided on Love Kupcakes he could not stop talking about them! When I finally tried a cupcake at my reception I understood why he was so excited, they were AMAZING! They were the perfect texture and the buttercream icing was fantastic and tasted homemade. We got 3 different flavors and the sea salt caramel chocolate were the most popular :) THANK YOU SO MUCH LOVE KUPCAKES! More...

These cupcakes are the best I have ever had I really love the Carrot Cake with Confetti frosting. I actually like the whole cupcake because they even make the frosting not too sweet and it is 100% perfectly Made. If you have not had one of these delicious treats yet you must go and give them a taste you will suddenly know what I have been talking about and what you have been missing. I am so glad I got a chance to try them when they visited us at USM in Portland. It is not the only kind of cupcake I wish to buy or eat so I am so glad I found the address because I have been craving one and now I can get one :) Thank you for making amazing delicious food to enjoy that is both beautiful and healthy. :) Amazing 100% approval from me.

Tried the gluten-free, vegan carrot cupcake on the recommendation of a friend. Delicious, moist and not overly sweet. I brought a dozen to a family gathering (where no one required gluten free or vegan) and they were a big hit. Also grateful for curbside pickup at Baristas & Bites, as I picked up on a busy summer afternoon. Thank you! More...

Love everything about Love Kupcakes. Their customer service is excellent! Every time I chatted with Debbie I felt like I was talking to a friend who cared about the event I was planning. Their cupcakes are creative, delicious and beautiful! Unbelievable flavor combinations. In addition, I asked for a speciality cake that they don't make, an Irish car bomb cake for st pattys day.... it was the highlight of the party! The baker did an excellent job. Can't thank you enough for making my mums 60th birthday special!! More...

Love Kupcakes were a huge part of my excitement for my wedding day! I knew early on that I wanted gluten free cupcakes at my wedding, and had already experienced the quality of Love Kupcakes through their food truck. When I contacted Debbie about what our options would be, she was quick to respond and very helpful. I think I emailed her back and forth with probably 1,000 different questions about a year before the actual date. When it came time to do a tasting, we were allowed to create and request our own flavor combinations to have exactly what we wanted. The headbaker did not disappoint and I was pleased to have some input and control over something so fun and festive. I told everyone who was coming to the wedding about how to make sure to grab as many of them as they could and try all the flavors we had. I got a ton of compliments regarding the quality and felt good about knowing a large portion of the ingredients used to make these delicious treats! More...

Love Kupcakes stepped in 1 month before our wedding when our dessert plan unexpectedly fell through. They were extremely professional and accommodating! They even delivered to our site over an hour away! Not to mention they made the most amazing cupcakes, whoopee pies, cookies, and cutting cake on the planet!! I'm still drooling just thinking about our delicious naked cake with berries and buttercream frosting!! Would highly recommend them for any occasion! I can't wait to grab some cupcakes the next time I am in Portland!! More...

Ordered three dozen strawberry shortcake ( my wife's favorite) for our engagement party and each and everyone was devoured and our guests kept asking where I got them from. Last week when the opportunity came to order cupcakes for a friends engagement party I knew exactly where to turn. The carrot cake, double vanilla, strawberry shortcake and maple-pecan proved excellent choices. Great to have a place which put so much heart and soul into the ingredients like Love Kupcakes does and that's evident in their delicious tasting and beautiful crafted cupcakes. Can't wait to use you guys again! More...

They're kupcakes (:D) are amazing no matter the flavor that you choose, and you can really taste the difference between the typical cupcakes you can find anywhere else and LK's amazing all natural kupcakes. The difference is real and you can taste it and it tastes amazing!

My favorite part about them is that they make gluten free and vegan kupcakes that literally taste no different--or even better!--then their regular kupcakes! It's like magic! Plus, they're super experimental and are willing to take on any challenge when it comes to new flavor combinations and catering to specific needs!

Their customer service is impeccable and they're doing their part to promote local businesses by buying local. Truly a great business from top to bottom.

Plus, who can resist their ADORABLE food truck!

Once I tried these cupcakes, I was hooked! I love that they're all-natural, they have tons of gluten-free options (people's eyes light up if you have a dessert they can eat! ), and the people there at the Public Market are really great! I can't recommend them any more highly! They have amazing whoopie pies and cookies too! I see them at catered events and weddings all the time- and that truck looks amazing! I love Love Kupcakes!

These are the best cupcakes ever! I'm a long time cupcake lover and have had cupcakes from all over the U.S. Nothing comes close to these cupcakes! I'm working on trying every flavor. Each flavor is better than the next. I don't know how they do it. Perhaps it's the local all natural ingredients. I feel so lucky to be near such a special business. I get them anytime someone visits and everyone is taken aback by how good they are. The bottoms are so moist, and the buttercream frosting is AMAZING. Please don't listen to any bad reviews, you will be missing out on such a special treat. Try every flavor you can! More...

Holy cow. These guys are saviors! My wife and I came from pittsburgh to Portland with our wedding cake in a car. Everything was perfect until we parked the car. .. flowers fell off the cake and the worst part was the cake slide off like a disc herniation. We had three days to get a cake made and to look good enough for our wedding and wow they did an absolutely amazing job. Not only were they unbelievably friendly, but they were equally efficient. I had updates on cake progress and audibles on it being built and it came out beautifully and deliiiiicious! Thank you so much again for being our heros. You saved the day! More...

Vegan cupcakes that don't taste like vegan cupcakes - victory. This is a small store with a wide range of different cakes and cookies. The carrot cake was my stand-out favorite though the cookies were a close second. FYI this is a credit-card only business so your cash ain't no good here. More...
