We…read moreappreciated how easy communication with Jojo the owner was and the online booking made it super easy and straightforward. One of the main reasons we wanted to do a party here was that there was a party room and we loved the idea of each child getting to decorate their own cake. We had 11 kids at her party and half got fetti flavor cakes to decorate and the other half had chocolate. They also offer a vegan chocolate option and a gluten sensitive fetti option with no up-charge. The party host was awesome in explaining the process and keeping the kids engaged. We opted to start with apron decorating ($3 per child) for the first 15-20 mins. We also selected for there to be fresh popcorn popped for the kids to eat. All decorators were give a cake, white frosting, 2 other frosting colors (preselected by the birthday girl), 2 fondant colors (preselected by the birthday girl) and 2 sprinkle options (preselected by the birthday girl). All the kids had a blast decorating their cakes. Afterwards the kids had a lot of fun doing photo sessions with the picture booth in the party room. All pictures were sent via a link to me and I was able to share with all the parents post party. We opted to bring in pizza from Costco for the kids which worked out great since it's so close by. I sent a picture of an example of a cake that my daughter liked and Jojo nailed the design. All kids went home with an apron and a custom cake they designed. The party host was great at making sure everyone got a cake box with their name on it. I can't say enough great things about the party at Cake Hoopla. I would highly recommend having your kid's birthday party there.

The donuts were very tasty and, honestly, unlike any donut I've had before. Only after enjoying them did I learn they were gluten free. The texture is dense and cake-like rather than light and fluffy, which was an unexpected and pleasant surprise. They are rich enough that we easily could have shared one. The space is big and has a nice outdoor covered patio. Nice for large groups or cold days!

But I just had two really bad experiences and I won't be going back. 1. I got some doughnuts around Christmas that had eggshell in them. I tossed them, and thought it must have been because it was crunch time at a bakery at Christmas. It happens. 2. Then about a week ago I bought a galette.... and it was totally raw on the inside! just... a mouth full of raw dough. I had to spit it out. I was sick for about a day afterwords. What is happening to this bakery? It used to be so good??? I'll try going back in a year or so? See if it has gone back to normal.

I've always loved supporting Fat Cupcake, which is why this experience was so disappointing…read more I've purchased cupcakes for birthdays and even recommended them to friends--one of my friends even used them for her wedding instead of a traditional cake. Because of that, for my birthday this year I asked my mom to pick up cupcakes for my second grade class--50 mini cupcakes with specific flavors I had chosen. One of my students has a severe egg allergy, so it was extremely important that the vegan cupcakes were clearly separated and labeled. Unfortunately, the experience in the store was very upsetting. The staff member helping my mom was scrolling on her phone the entire time and came across as very rude and dismissive. My mom even asked if she had done something wrong because the employee was being so rude and inconsiderate , but the behavior continued. The boxes were placed on the counter aggressively , and my mom was rung up without much communication. The total came out to about $200 for 50 mini cupcakes, 6 regular-sized ones, a small piece of cake and two cake pops, which felt especially frustrating given the service. After leaving, my mom realized the vegan cupcake had been mixed in with the others and not labeled or separated at all--this is a serious safety concern. She returned to the store to clarify, and the employee took a cupcake from the case and handed it to her in her bare hand, without a box or container, saying, "this one is vegan." My mom had to ask if she was expected to just hold it in her hand. Later that evening, I had to go to a grocery store and purchase a separate set of vegan cupcakes that were clearly packaged and labeled because I no longer felt confident in the safety of what was provided. The lack of care and attention from the staff made it impossible for me to serve my student their cupcakes. I rarely leave reviews, but this experience was honestly sad. I've always wanted to support this business, but the lack of care, professionalism, and attention to something as serious as a food allergy was very disappointing--especially after spending so much. I truly hope this business can do better for its customers in the future.

I love this place. Best cupcakes ever…read more I have been coming here for years, and it is still one of my favorite spots in Portland. The quality is consistently great. One thing I really miss is the banana chocolate chip cupcake. That cupcake was incredible, and I wish they would bring it back. It was one of the best flavors they ever had. I do think the menu leans too heavily into chocolate. There are two or three very similar chocolate cupcakes, which feels redundant. I would love to see more fruit flavors like strawberry, raspberry, other berry options, or a banana cupcake again. Variety would make an already great menu even better. That said, this is still my go-to cupcake place and one of the few true cupcake shops in Portland. I will always keep coming back.

Price went up $5.50, which is to be expected, but still worth the price, in my opinion. Starting Tuesday, March 4th their seasonal flavors will be tropical fruit. Give them a try if you find yourself in Multnomah Village in SW Portland.
