    First, Second, and Third impressions matter a lot. Whether you get to know a place by trying it 3 times, trying a particular item 3 times, or persistently receiving some reminder 3+ times to get your butt in the door...Baked by Amy's will instantly let you know you're in the right place. Who knew about Amy's Icecream branching out with a cupcake/bakery counterpart? The last time I checked cupcakes being a "thing", was for some kid in your class having a birthday you semi-cared about. It was a win-win if the kid was your buddy and their cupcakes were good, but other than that, it wasn't the grand prize of full-on cake & candles. Baked by Amy's has a simplicity and irresistible grace towards capturing the essence of particular flavors and giving it back as a cupcake. You can have your cupcake, and eat it too! [My List] 1.Boston Creme Pie: 5/5- Stellar, Stunning, Marriage Material. 2.Tres Leche: 3.8/5- It tasted like a Tres Leche! What else is there to say! 3.Triple Chocolate Brownie: 3.9/5- Wow & Wow. Decadent, indulging, the 'forbidden fruit' of cupcakes. Resist temptation if you must chocolate-lovers. 4.Mexican Vanilla: 3.0/5- Didn't feel it. Didn't translate well for me from icecream flavor to cupcake. Stick with the icecream version. 5. Choc strawberry/Oreo strawberry: 2.9/5- Honestly, couldn't' tell them apart because felt both were a little odd-tasting. Not even another stick of butter could save it. My impression of these cupcakes is like that old tootsie roll commercial 'how many licks does it take to get to the center of the tootsie pop?' Its like what I was saying at the beginning of how many times until you really know. Baked by Amy's took...'a ONE'....'a TWO'.....'a THA-REE!!'...for me. How many times will it take for YOU? The world may never know.

    I didn't see its official name, so I'm guessing this is vanilla.  UPDATE - I've been informed it's Mexican Vanilla. So there you go.

    I feel I missed the memo on this one. Definitely a bonus star for being a bright, cheery, and colorful venue, but the cupcakes here just didn't speak to me. When I bite into a dessert, I've got to hear angels sing and shit. Of course it's all subjective: The lemon/blueberry thing was a little too cream-cheesy for me, and the Mexican Vanilla was simply very white. Nothing wrong with that. I always proclaim Amy's as the best ice cream around town, but I've had better cupcakes in Austin. So be it.

    Chocolate lovers cupcake with brownie bits sprinkled on top. Mmmm.

    Love that Baked by Amy's is now on Ubereats! Their chocolate cupcakes with brownie bits are the best thing to order from bed on a Sunday morning. The gingerbread cookies are also moist and have just the right amount of icing/sprinkle application to compliment the cookie. I still maintain that the shortbread cookies would be 100x better if they were not saturated with thick, chalky icing. I know they look beautiful and are quirky, but please add an offering where the shortbread shine on their own.

    Came here after dinner to grab some dessert, and this time decided to get a cookie and some macarons. The person grabbing the macarons crushed 4 of them before being able to get me two suitable ones. The cookie is where it didn't leave me impressed. I got a sugar cookie and for the price you pay for the cookie I would hope it would taste much better. It greased out in the bag and was inedible when I brought it home. I love Amy's Ice Cream and I really want to love this place but every time I come here it always leaves me less impressed.

    Reese's and Tres Leches cupcakes!

    ....There aren't enough good things I can say about this place. You need to try their cupcakes, stat! We came in here the other day because I saw an ad in the local newspaper for Baked and I was totally sold based on their cute logo (go ahead, judge me). Their storefront was as cute as their logo and the staff is as sweet as their baked goods. The girl who helped us came from behind the counter to give us the grand tour of cupcakes, talk about great customer service :) Some of the cupcakes they had that day were the tres leches, chocolate tres leches, Boston cream pie, Reese's, lemon blueberry, chocolate mint, and lots more that I can't even remember. Their macaroons looked amazing and their cookies are HUGE. We ended up walking away with a tres leches (one of the top sellers) and a Reese's cupcake. They wrapped up our cakes in a gorgeous box and tied it with a bow - so professional. Some advice for those who take these cupcakes on the road - make sure you have a utensil to eat them with because they're large, in charge, and destined to get your face ooey-gooey if you dive face first into it. The tres leches had beautiful berries on top with a light whipped cream. The cupcake was soaked with condensed milk goodness and had a wonderful berry filling. Much more than I could ever expect from a cupcake - it blew me away!! The Reese's was so chocolatey and peanut buttery... the richness of the cake was unbelievable and the crumbled Reese's on top brought it all together. Needless to say, I left that place in awe of its amazing tasting baked goods and their wonderful service. Baked, you will see me very soon and I hope all my fellow Yelpers will follow suit!

    Macaroons

    Strawberry shortcake cupcake. That's all you need to know. Ok, well maybe there's more. This is such a cute place to get your sugar fill! Great customer service as well. From cupcakes, macaroons, cookies, cake balls and bars (rice crispy treats and brownies) there's something for every dessert enthusiast. I recommend sticking to the fruit flavored cup cakes over anything vanilla or chocolate. The strawberry short cake has a jam or preserved in the middle and overall is much more moist than their vanilla almond, peanut butter and chocolate cakes. The macaroons here are HUGE. Way bigger than most places I've seen in Austin. For $2 a piece it's a good deal. My only complaint is that some of the actual cookie can be a bit on the crunchy side rather than a soft crisp. Pro-tip: Fridays are 2 cupcakes for $5 verses the regular price of $3 each.

    three cupcakes in a box

    We both came to the conclusion on the 2 star review..Speaks for itself....We have had better...Now the flavors were good, but the cupcakes were dry, very dry and actually crumbled...would be No way to pick this up and eat is...well, not with out a mess...looking at the menu, I cant even find the ones we bought...Im sure they do daily flavors, but can seam to match them up...So...we had a Blueberry Lemon, S'mores, and a Blondie...Like we said all were good in flavor, but the Cake just didn't make the cut..

    This place would be 4 stars based on their decor & lemonberry cupcake alone. But I didn't want to give a review until after I had come back again & tried some more goodies. Came in on a Saturday night & finally got that toffee cookie I've been eyeing. $2. HUGE, but there was something lacking. I can't quite figure out what it was, but it was not the toffee cookie I dreamed of. I took it home and actually couldn't even finish it. It wasn't bad.. just not GREAT, aka not worth the calories. Macaron- I can confirm what other reviewers have said. It's not right. It's hollow on the inside & extra-crispy on the outside. The chocolate ganache was fine. BUT definitely not done right. Not chewy. Doesn't satisfy. HOWEVER- I still am a fan of their lemonberry cupcake! It was delicious. Cream cheese icing always gets me! It was moist, had a lemon filling & topped with fresh blueberries. Even my husband who doesn't care for desserts had to have half of mine. I'll be back.. but probably for cupcakes only!

    Baked has a seriously adorable and clean design

    The more I eat cupcakes, the more I realize I suck at eating them. I had the s'mores cupcake. It almost beat the one I had in Los Angeles from the cupcake ATM. I was really delighted with it but it totally crumbled in my hands and got everywhere. This says two things. The cupcakes are moist and you should put in a bib. I had a couple if their macarons and this is why they only get 4 stars. I see that many places are trying to get into the macaron game. Macarons are one of the hardest cookies to make. This is why in my mind, if they aren't coming out right, don't sell them. Go perfect your method. These macarons looked good, tasted good but the cookie left something to be desired. The cookie was crunchy. The majority if the cookie was a big air bubble that made the macaroon just crumble in your hand when eating. Overall, stay for the cupcakes, not the macarons.

    Amy's baked cakes are simply a work of art. I'm always amazed at the variety, and the creativity.
    Gail A.

    Amy's baked is located in Northwest Austin next to the Amy's ice cream location. Oh yeah, it is also located next to I Fly. I like to come here on Fridays to get 2 cupcakes for five dollars. This is also a great place to come for amazing handcrafted original cakes. Check out the pictures I took of their Halloween cakes. The area is open and you can see them making the cakes by hand. Sometimes it is very hard to find parking. I actually park at the main event and hike through the back area when I am desperate for a cupcake, macaroon, or brownie. I'm just updating this review on November 20. Amy's bake is amazing as they are getting ready for the holiday season. I was going to snap a picture of their cakes but now they have pies. I still stand by my five star review.

    Too freaking cute- could a cookie be anymore "Austin"??
    Lauren B.

    Everything here is cute and adorable and perfect and wonderful. Yummy cupcakes and Austintatious cookies- what more do you people want? Seriously the perfect treat for your sugar tooth or a perfect gift for a home sick Texan. "i love you so much" Baked by Amy's!

    The dark chocolate cake which was quite delightful
    Karthik R.

    The dark chocolate cake (last minute buy for my sisters anniversary) was amazing. The cake I heard is made with organic ingredients and it was very rich. A lot of chocolate cakes usually leave an after taste which feels synthetic, but this cake did not have any of that aftertaste which was a pleasant surprise. I think the cake was a triple chocolate cake. Overall a good experience.

    Ashley J.

    I love having this place so close to my house! All the cookies and cakes are beautifully done, affordable, and tasty. Also, the inside is clean and inviting! On this particular day, my friends and I went in for cake balls and cupcakes and we got free cookies! Free anything sounds good to me! Such a good place to go when you just want to treat yourself!

    Try it!!!!!!!!!!!! So good!!!!!!!!!!!

While we're glad you joined us, I'm sorry to hear your breakfast experience didn't meet expectations. We'll be reviewing your comments with our culinary team to improve consistency. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope to provide a better experience in the future. Warm regards, Wes Brown It's great to receive a response from the business manager regarding our experience at their restaurant, but all four us thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. We had absolutely no complaints regarding our dining experience. Caroline is affiliated with the Marriott Element and Aloft hotels and that, I believe, where the affiliation ends. I try to avoid hotel eateries but I've had great dining experiences at hotels like the JW Marriott in Austin. We, four, stopped by on a Sunday AM for breakfast and we had a great time. They do have brunch cocktails available and their bloody Mary's were deemed excellent with just the right amount of spice. My bloody Maria was on point and we all got our Sunday Funday started. Breakfast was wonderful. Our eggs arrived cooked perfectly. The pepper bacon and real potato sides were off the charts delicious. They also offer a few TexMex breakfast options and Plus one was raving about her Huevos Rancheros plate. Service was excellent even though they became busy our server was very attentive. Pro tip: Sat and Sun AMs if you arrive early you can easily score a table.

I just wasn't a fan of the flavors/textures -- but obviously that's subjective. I did enjoy the garlic bread we also thankfully bought -- it was soft and flavorful. If you're not familiar with the foods, I'd recommend making sure you get a few "safe" items like the cream bread or garlic bread. Ultimately, even though I wasn't crazy about most of what I tried, it was a cute little shop with a nice lady running it.
