This place is amazing the cupcakes they have are so unique and so delicious if your cupcake lover you definitely want to go here it's no wonder that they've won three different times in the Cupcake Wars. The prices there are very reasonable and it's right down in Old Vista so if you plan on having lunch you can do that and then stop by there for dessert it is well worth stopping by! More...

My favorite cupcake place. You can even check online before you go to see the flavors of the day. Go early though, the more popular ones will sell out.

I had red velvet cupcakes, and vanilla, with vanilla frosting. So good! I INHALED these cupcakes! It may cost a bit more than a grocery cupcake, but the quality is MUCH better. They do offer discounted cupcakes that are "Yesterday's Bake", which are just as yummy! More...

I absolutely love this place! Keep coming back for more. Their lemon cupcake is by far my favorite. The cake is moist and flavorful and the lemon purée on top is the perfect level of sweet and citrus. And the buttercream frosting is the best I’ve had. They have so many flavor options as well as mini cheesecakes that are absolute heaven. This little shop is by far my favorite sweet shop ever. More...

When you leave the water park with your toddler and want something sweet, little cakes is the place to be. When your greeted by a friendly smile and the sweet aroma of cupcakes, you feel right at home in this tiny shop. All sorts of amazing fresh cupcake flavors from Pb & chocolate to strawberry they've got it all. I ordered a strawberry milkshake cupcake for my son and I too share and we loved it!! The delicious cake and sweet fluffy frosting make for a flavor like no other. The shop itself is very small, giving off a small mom & pop bakery feel. With one table to sit at, you can enjoy your treat there if it's not too busy. I loved this shop and am so glad to have found it! Can't wait to return with my little dude for another friendly conversation with Kristine and a sweet treat. More...

Had the Matcha Honey and Triple Chocolate cupcake. It was good but not for everyone. I prefer the batter to be more dense, moist and a little undercooked; this place is perfect for me. One star off for the topping and flavoring. Matcha cupcake lacks matcha taste. Chocolate cupcake was sufficiently rich. More...

I happened upon this place while on my way to a friends house.  Stopped in and they were very friendly.  The service was good and cupcakes were phenominal.  I will say I think the prices on cupcakes these days seem a little pricey for what you get but I was still very happy over all. More...

FANTASTIC, prompt, friendly and DELICIOUS!  We decided late in the day yesterday that it'd be fun to surprise our now grown son with a cake or cupcakes for his birthday.  Only problem? TODAY is that birthday.  I checked online and found this bakery in his city called Little Cakes, phoned them late in their day (literally almost closing time), asked about possible things to order.  Because it was late a driver wasn't available for today BUT they then recommended I try GrubHub for that (that's my next positive YELP review coming! Ha). But the cupcakes arrived this morning FRESH and AMAZING and our son was thrilled!  Thanks so much you guys!!!  I highly recommend Little Cakes Cupcakes!  The service is as sweet as the cake!  HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Came here for a sweet treat after lunch and was swayed by the "cupcake wars winners" stickers they had on their windows. I asked the worker which were the most popular cakes and he said the red velvet and tuxedo. I decided to go with the tuxedo since you can get red velvet anywhere.The tuxedo cupcake had a chocolate cake base with a white chocolate ganache and topped with a white buttercream frosting and chocolate malt balls. The malt balls and frosting were my favorite part. I think the ganache was a little overkill with sweetness, but it did provide a nice texture when biting into it. As for the cake itself, it wasnt as moist as i expected it to be, but definitely better than your grocery store quality cupcakes. More...

The best cupcake spot, HAAAAAAANNNNDS DOWN!!! Love everything about it....1. Atmosphere: on point!!!2. Service: very friendly 3. The actual cakes: yaaaaaaaasI recommend getting red velvet. The frosting is the best I have ever tasted. The actual cake is the one that you dream about! That is why I gave it 5 stars. Everything is on point and I wish I can even give it more stars. No wonder they won Cupcake Wars twice! More...

What a surprise when I discovered these tasty creations. They are so creative and decadent. Many have a tasty filling and the frosting is perfect. I bought ad tasted 10 different ones and they were each special in their own way. Loved the cannoli, pumpkin, lemon meringue, cinnamon, all of them were very fresh even tried a day old one and you'd never know, it was very fresh. More...

We have been coming here a couple years and I think their cake is great. However with recent visits I cannot handle their buttercream frosting anymore, and they use it a lot. If it's room temp it's oily like softened butter. When I refrigerated them it was the  worst, I literally felt like I was biting into a stick of butter. I prefer cream cheese or regular frosting I guess. Until they change that up a bit and have more variety I won't be coming by much More...
