    The Shirley temple cupcake was my favorite. I suggest getting the four mini cupcake flight to try a variety. Super efficient and pleasant staff. Great people - watching view. Love it!

    The Lemon Chiffon is hands down the best cupcake. If you're craving chocolate, go with the brownie over the cupcake!

    Icing shots and glass bottle cokes... Our go to spot before shows at DPAC. Get there early, though... Flavors sell out!

    Best cupcakes ever! I can't eat regular cupcakes anymore because these are so much better. Mexican chocolate are my favorite.

    Not worth the money. Go to Gigi cupcakes in Raleigh on Oberlin Rd or Briercreek
