    Gluten Free: Red Velvet was, eh. I am also lactose intolerant and you can't order a gluten free + vegan cupcake, only one or the other. The GF crumbled and fell apart. Glad they have GF+DF options tho

    Sprinkles does the banana cupcake justice with a tender, fresh banana cake. It's slightly more dense than their other cupcakes, but in all the right ways, plenty moist and appropriately sweet.

    Enjoyed the red velvet cupcake. The frosting is amazing! There is a platform inside that serves as the only seating and there are no tables. Didn't try the vending machine but it's pretty clever.

    Had many cupcakes in my life and this place tops everything I've had. I always get the gluten free red velvet - it's so good! The strawberry one is amazing too.

    I got a classic vanilla cupcake w/multi colored sprinkles for my birthday breakfast. It was smaller than the ones at Crumbs and not as sweet as Magnolia.

    Even for a same flavor, a lot of them have a couple of variations (regular frostings, with sprinkles, gluten free, etc) which keeps it fun. I like salty caramel and vanilla is worth every calorie!

    Still the best cupcakes around. Red Velvet is a must - they now have a sugar-free version! And don't forget the "secret" Neapolitan flavor! Just ask for it by name.

    Good flavors, I like that they have a weekly schedule for their flavors and monthly specials. Good sized cupcake, the red velvet here is the best!

    An “ATM machine” outside the shop will allow customers to order cupcakes 24 hours a day, just like the machine's L.A. counterpart. Let's hope it accepts Bitcoin.

    Definitely the best red velvet I've ever had in life. ATM is perfect for late night cravings. Pricey for a cupcake but totally worth it.

    Everyone loves a good cupcake and Sprinkles just does it right. Get the Peanut Butter Chocolate cupcake for an experience your taste buds won't be ready for.

    By far my favorite cupcakes in the city! They're always so fresh, moist, and fluffy, and never oily! (Like most of the other bakeries in NYC).

    Make sure to check their Facebook or Instagram, they tend to have buy one get one free deals every few days. You need to know the "secret word" though.

    Vegan red velvet is spot on! Wish they had more variety for vegans though.
  • My Tail Hurts From Wagging So Much
    Don't forget to bring home a treat for your dog! They've got mini doggie cupcakes available. They're near the cash register and not with the others, so you may need to look for them.

    Try: The red velvet cupcake (Sprinkles’ most popular flavor). There’s also salty caramel, chai latte and key lime for the more adventurous ($3.50 per cupcake, $39 per dozen).
