    Cupcakes
    Jon G.

    A nice little ducked off spot to get desert at while you're in the area. The owner was inside at the time and was very nice and keen to feedback on the products. The rice krispy treat was a little dry, but the cupcakes themselves were good

    Colossal Brownie

    A nice sweet shop tucked away. If you want to satisfy your sweet tooth, this is a great place to come. They have a nice assortment of sweet goodies. I opted for the colossal brownie. It was all gooey deliciousness. They also have handmade trinkets that are nice. It's a nice touch so much so, I got a brownie and a trinket . Customer service here is superb. Every customer is greeted warmly.

    The owners were great! I asked and loved hearing their story of how they started this company. Due to covid, you can't eat inside but they have some tables and chairs outside. There are so many flavors to choose from, so it was so hard to decide. I'm glad that my friend got one and I got one, so I was able to try two. I had the marble and it was a little too sweet for me. However, my friend got the strawberry cheesecake and it was incredible!! They also have other baked goods (cookies, banana bread) as well as ice cream and milk shakes.

    What a great place! I had seen pictures of the baked goods on here and other social media sites and knew I had to come. I bookmarked it, then life got a little busy, then the pandemic happened and I was checking to see what made it and what had not made it thru the pandemic, and struck gold here. I came by on a weekday afternoon. The lady working was friendly and helpful. Everything was neat and clean inside. I got a lemonade and two fairy cakes and was on my way. Everything was just too easy. And when I got home and tried everything, I was in love. I look forward to coming back here in the future. I am so glad to support a women owned, POC owned business and hope everyone else loves them like I do.

    So delicious!!

    I went with Cupcake Fairies on a whim, as they were one of the recommended vendors at the venue where we were having our wedding. I contacted them to see if they were available for my date, and also made a weird request to see if they could send me samples of the cake to taste (since I was having a destination wedding in New Orleans). They were more than gracious and willing to do so, and the samples were delicious. I gave them some ideas of what I was looking for, and they totally ran with it! I asked for a layer of chocolate, a layer of wedding cake flavor, and the top to be almond flavor. Flash forward to my wedding day, and I finally got to meet the ladies in person (albeit, passing by for our photos, since everything was done virtually), and the cake looked amazing!! I was so impressed and happy with the final results! They also made delicious cupcakes (and we got a dozen gluten-free as well). Needless to say, everyone LOVED the cake!!! They talked about how delicious and moist it was, and not too sweet but just right! They even provided me instructions on how to preserve the first layer (which I totally brought all the way back to San Francisco with me). I was able to save a small chunk of cake too, which I will be merrily eating and enjoying until we can enjoy the top layer in a year. Cannot recommend this place enough for all your cake and cupcake needs!

    A group of friends were in town celebrating my husbands 40th birthday. I was able to order cupcakes for my husband's birthday and we were not disappointed. The staff was very friendly and responsive. Thank you so much for fulfilling my order last minute.

    look at them. sitting pretty like parfaits.

    Fair warning: I enjoy cupcakes. I was in Riverwalk at the kiosk. That said..... Innovation!!! Never before have I been served a cupcake in an actual cup. It had a lid. I could eat a bit now and drop it in my purse for later. No walking around looking silly shoving cake my mouth.... I could eat it like a civilized person.... With a spoon! They have spoons! I have no idea what the cake tastes like. I have the sniffles, all i can taste right now are extremes. The texture was nice, no dryness. And the frosting is fairly light. Gonna have to go back after I get the taste buds in order.

    If you ever find yourself in New Orleans make sure to put this as #1 on your to-do list that way you have the chance for a 2nd or 3rd visit during your trip. Upon hearing about this cupcake shop and its location I had this feeling that the two amazing women that own this place are the same ones I saw on cupcake wars. Long story short they were and it made that visit that much better. Upon walking in you can feel the happiness. My husband and I were greeted and were given so much attention and every question we had was answered. They have a variety of items if you're looking for breakfast or lunch and anything in between. We got there around 1pm so there were still options to choose from. The inside is very inviting and the atmosphere makes you want to stay. The aroma of fresh baked goods will have you floating on a soft pillow of sweetness. Their cupcakes are perfect for sharing or satisfying a sweet tooth on the go. They come in clear containers that mimic cups but with a lid that allows space for icing and other toppings. My husband and I initially ordered 3 of the cupcakes however before we could make it out the door he had eaten and entire cupcake so he replaced it with a 4th one. We had two cupcakes with vanilla cake and black and white icing, one spiced peach cupcake and one lemon glaze cupcake. Everyone of them were amazing from the cake to the icing and individual flavors. We can't wait to visit the big easy again to purchase more cupcakes and try a few other sweet items.

    Me and my wife wanted a little dessert after a long day. They were 30 mins from closing and a 20…read moreminute walk. Luckily they were so nice to us when we arrived and said they didn't even realize it was almost closing time. We got a salted caramel cupcake which was delicious, a regular brownie which was the star of everything, insanely moist and just amazingly delicious. The cake balls weren't very special but not horrible. The aesthetic of the place is nice, the workers were nice and the desserts were great. Definitely will have to stop by again before leaving NOLA.

The interior is bright, inviting, and full of beautifully displayed sweets that honestly made it so hard to choose. There were so many options that I got a little overwhelmed... and somehow ended up going with the simplest thing on the menu a chocolate chip cookie I know, I know. But honestly? No regrets. I loved that they shape their cookies like little scooped dough balls so you can tell they're fresh and made with care. It had that soft, bakery-style feel that I'm always looking for. I also got the carrot cake latte. It was good and I appreciated that I could actually taste the coffee, which is a big plus for me. But if I'm being honest it didn't really give carrot cake. It wasn't as sweet or spiced as I expected. Would I get it again? Probably not. But I didn't dislike it either it just didn't wow me. One thing I really loved was the service and atmosphere. They greeted me straight from the kitchen, which felt super warm and welcoming. There's also plenty of seating making it a great spot to hang out, catch up with a friend or just enjoy a quiet moment with a coffee. Even though my order was simple, I left feeling excited to come back. There's still so much I want to try. I also think their coffee itself is really good, I just need to find the right drink for me. Overall, Batter is definitely a spot I'll be returning to. Cute, creative, and full of potential, I just know I'm going to find my go-to order soon.

After being told no so many times and tasting dry, flavorless cakes, I was at a loss on where to get a wedding cake. A coworker recommend Sweet Life and I contacted Jenn and we set up a tasting for all the flavors I was interested in. We ended up getting 3 different flavors for the different layers because they were so good that I couldn't choose. Jenn also told me the design I picked out was easy for them to do. The cake was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. I was very glad I asked for pieces of the cake to be brought to our suite so we could try some of the delicious wedding cake since the rest of the cake was eaten at the reception.

Both cakes were crowd pleasers. The chocolate cake was moist, rich and decadent. The almond cake was moist and light, and had just the right amount of sweetness. Sometimes their buttercream frosting isn't sweet enough. Working with the baker was easy enough. The first time I met with her in person. She was personable and offered some great ideas. The second time we talked over the phone, and the service was also fine, and she was accommodating. I think they're a good value.
