The cupcakes here are heavenly. I tried the red velvet cheese cake jumbo cupcake and it dang near melted in my mouth.  It was nice and soft, almost tasted like it was freshly baked.  I wanted to try so many more but I can't justify taking home 6 cupcakes for myself, especially the jumbo sized ones.  I bought one to go so I could head to the library right after and they were nice enough to put it in a little cup which made it a lot cleaner to eat. I appreciate that.  I didn't take any pictures because it was so good and I ate it too fast but I'll definitely come back to try more in the future. More...

Saw an Instagram review from BayAreaFoodz and had to try these cupcakes as he said they were the best he's had in awhile. We went in and the girl at the counter was really nice and gave us the rundown on pricing and then gave us a few minutes to make our choices . We chose to get 6 which was actually buy 5 get 1 free for $17.50. Mike thought that was too much but what the heck; you don't eat good cupcakes every day. We got a Banana Cream Pie, Hot Fudge Sundae, Snickers, Black Forest, Berrylicious and an Oreo. Mike started with the Sundae and it was pretty plain and basic. We weren't too impressed. Then we tried the Oreo and OMG!!!! It was moist, rich, flavorful and the texture reminded me of a cake pop. I think there was real Oreo filling mixed in with the cake. It was definitely my favorite out of the ones I tried. I gave the Banana Cream to my aunt who said it was a really good cupcake and would definitely eat another. Mike's mom had the Snickers and she too said it was really good. I tried the Black Forest which was okay and the Berrylicious was almost as good as the Oreo. It reminded me of a berry muffin as it had a spongy muffin like texture. The filling and frosting were delish as well. I like to half my cupcake and put the bottom on the top to make it like a sandwich with the frosting in the middle so I can get a little bit of frosting with each bite.If I was to rate them overall I probably should have given them a 4 because the Sundae/Black Forest were nothing special but the specialty ones were soooooo good that I had to give them a 5. If you are ever in the area check them out. I know I'll be back again one day. More...

I've been following The Cupcake Shoppe on Instagram for a while now. Every time I see a post, I promise myself I would stop in when I was in the neighborhood. I finally made good on my promise one Friday afternoon. While the location is small, I was overwhelmed with all the choices in the display case. The super friendly employee informed me they 100 different flavors (that just made it worse), but she helped me narrow down to my eventual 5 choices, which were:LemonTriple ChocolatePeanut ButtercupChocolate BaconCoconut (I got the jumbo)My favorites were the lemon and peanut buttercup. Both were quite tasty, with a great lemon and peanut better flavor respectively. I wanted to love the chocolate bacon (because, I mean, it's topped with bacon), but it was a little too sweet for me. The triple chocolate was decent, while the icing for the coconut was a little too hard.While I was there, they were filling up their food truck. I'm hoping they will eventually make their way to Oakland, because I will definitely try more of their flavors. More...

Came across this gem randomly when I told my boyfriend I was craving cupcakes, he found this little shop on yelp and we got in the car. Such a great find, I crave these cupcakes sometimes and wish I were closer to get them. My absolute favorite flavor is the Lemon Curd. Also these cakes were on Cupcake Wars I believe. My favorite thing about these cupcakes are that they are taller than your average cupcake and they are filled in the middle with goodness. They sell the average joe cupcakes with the typical flavors but then they also have some pretty unique flavors. I've seen ube, frosted flakes, orange creamsicle, among many others. More...

Love the cupcake shoppe! Their cupcakes never disappoint. Whenever I go in there they usually have all the cupcakes in stock. Tip is to go in the morning though because they will sell out of their cupcakes. The regular sized cupcakes are $2. The jump are $4.5 I believe. The jumbo are pretty big though. I'd suggest the regular ones. On Monday's they have mini cupcakes! They also bake customized cakes, cupcakes, ice cream cake, and more. You just have to inquire. But I'd highly recommend this place. The only reason I'm deducting a Star is because when I was calling to inquire during open hours no one answered and when I emailed it took them weeks to respond. (Probably super busy)Better off going into the store they're very friendly and helpful in store. More...

How have I not reviewed this place yet?!!! I've been coming to The Cupcake Shoppe for a few years now and what sparked my very first visit about 4 years ago was their Hennessy Red cupcake. Man this was one of the strongest alcohol infused desserts I've ever had in my life, it was like taking a shot of Henny straight up lol but it was good. Ever since then I've been somewhat hooked. The cupcakes here are really good, I've not had a bad cupcake. They are baked fresh, there are many different flavors to choose from and they are always coming up with some unique and out the box flavors. I've had quite a few different ones but my favorites are the Red Velvet, Chocolate Chip Cheesecake and Cherry Cheesecake. Those three are just amazing! The cupcakes are so moist, decadent and the frostings/fillings are always on point. The customer service is always great and whenever I have questions about several cupcakes and what they are filled with they have no problem helping me out lol and giving their recommendations. I don't get here too often since during the week it's hard to get here by the time they close and they aren't open on Sunday's but they now have a cupcake truck so I can get my fix when they come to Fremont Street Eats or other events. So look out for their truck if you can't come to the bakery. I also like that the prices are contingent with the size of the cupcakes, some places charge $4 for a petite cupcake but they do not do that here! And if you follow their IG they will sometimes post promotions and if you're lucky they just might post that they're open on a Sunday. I definitely would recommend this place, honestly great cupcake shops are very hard to come by especially ones that make a moist cupcake with a great frosting. The Cupcake Shoppe is where it's at!

I learned about this place from one of my friends and they have never disappointed. The flavors are all amazing but honey lavender is our favorite. Everyone who tries the honey lavender at our parties cant stop raving about it, i dont think you can find this flavor anywhere in the bay are and definitely not up to the standard of the cupcake shoppe. I also find their prices very reasonable. The only feedback I have is to improve communications for inquiries, sometimes it can take 3-5 days to get a response back and the staff arent very helpful when you call them, but I'm sure thats also a testament to how busy and in demand they are.

Love the goodies at The Cupcake Shoppe. I've never been disappointed in anything here. Today, they announced on Instagram they're testing a new cupcake flavor "chicken & waffle".  I missed the ube testing day (thankfully they decided to add it to the regular menu) so I literally sprinted because I was not going to miss out this time . I love the combination of sweet & savory so this was right up my alley.

My mom and I randomly stopped into this lovely little place. My mom had been eyeing it but never really went in because it's difficult to tell if they're open. I would had passed it if she hadn't already been curious about it. But the cupcakes. Oh man the cupcakes. I just had an entire jumbo Triple Threat (red velvet, chocolate, vanilla with cream cheese and chocolate frosting) cupcake to myself and there's not a single thing I would change. Great ratio of frosting to cake, moist and airy, sweet and smooth frosting, and beautifully decorated. One of my favorite things about this place was the variety of cupcakes they had. It was difficult to choose just 6 for their buy five get one free deal. The lovely woman who greeted us was kind, personable and made some excellent suggestions to help me pick. She welcomed us the moment we walked in and was very friendly all around!The Sweet Art of Cake is closer to where I live, but I'd happily drive the extra few miles to go get a cupcake from The Cupcake Shoppe instead.

The shop is located on Main St, on the same side as Domino's. I'm a frequent patron due to their Fivestars points system; I check in enough to always get either a buy one, get one free cupcake coupon or a free cupcake coupon altogether . I am partial to the Triple Threat. My wife enjoys the lavender (only on Thursdays) and the Red Velvet. I've had several different cupcakes here; all are good and are a good size (not that Hostess mini-cake crap). Cupcakes will run you around $2.50 I think, and there's an extra charge if you use a credit card under a certain dollar threshold. The parking is a little tough if there's none in front; there's free parking in the lot next to Domino's, but it fills up fast. I've also used this vendor for my wedding cake two years ago. It was very good. The only drawback is that if you need to speak to the owner, they're only in at certain times of the week. The staff doesn't always respond to e-mails either, so best to call ahead. I'll always be back here to get my sugar fix. More...

I saw this place on Cupcake Wars and have been wanting to try it ever since. I know it's been forever since that show was on, but plans have changed for me and now I finally have the chance to stop by and try some. They were only one of the few cupcake shops from the bay on that show. I know Kara's cupcakes was on the show, but I feel like their quality went down since that show. This shop didn't. I knew I'd only get one chance to try these. So I bought a ton and shared with my family so I'd get to taste each. I love the diversity of their flavors and how each cupcake lives up to its name. It's always disappointing when a cupcake is just plain bread and frosting and one other thing, like peanut butter frosting. I feel like these cupcakes each have something to it to make them worth eating- fillings, graham cracker crusts, toppings. In fact, I really really like it. I go on Pinterest seeing all these awesome takes on cupcakes and then I go to a bakery and see everything being so plain. So the fact that they do more with their cupcakes is a huge win for me. They don't even need to be super-duper fresh or organic or the most moist cake in the world- just good consistent quality (not dry, not overly sweet, and not gross) and do something more than just your typical cupcake if I'm going to break my diet and wallet for it. It seems there are only a few bakeries in California that do that and they are on of them. That and and no annoying teeth-breaking candy toppers- hooray! Each cupcake was consistent in quality, even the day old cupcakes were still good. I liked how they added the sour sugar from sour patch kids to their sour patch cupcake frosting. I also loved their whipped cream frosting. One of the best I've ever had.Definitely want to take my nieces here. I also saw a beautiful prototype of a cake they decorated to show their decoration skills. They will for sure be my go to for occassions and hopefully they'll still be around years later for my wedding. Keep it up Cupcake Shoppe :)! More...

I can't say enough good things about this place, it's my favorite cupcake shop and bakery in Hayward! Their pastries are always fresh and even the stuff that's one day old is incredibly soft and fluffy. Bonus, the one day old cupcakes are always on sale which is nice if they have a flavor you want.I've never had fruity pebble's rice crispy treat, honestly have never thought to make it. But it was so unique and fresh. Even though the bar was really thick, you took a bite and it was very fluffy and crumbled in your mouth. The amount you get for the price is huge! I had to share my rice crispy treat with someone.The cupcakes are always my favorite here. The thin mint cupcake was very very minty, I could taste the minty freshness in my mouth hours after I ate it. But combined with the chocolate, it was so delicious. There was even a soft chocolate pudding in the middle so you got a gooey surprise with every bite. The brownie bite cupcake was really good and also had a surprise chocolate putting in the middle. They were pieces of brownie on top and although the cupcake itself was vanilla, the chocolate frosting was really rich and everything complemented each other well. More...
