    Cupcake variety
    Sharyl J.

    My new obsession! I've been wanting to stop by to try their vegan cupcakes. I came by today (Friday, Valentine's day) and they also had some special valentine's day treats! It is cute and welcoming inside and the person working was super helpful in showing me the different flavors. So far I have only eaten the chocolate cupcake and it was soooo good! You wouldn't even be able to tell that it's vegan and gluten free. Will definitely be back!

    Custom Sonic cake

    Rebekah was awesome! She created a custom cake for my son's birthday and it was amazing! She made the process so easy and was very responsive and friendly. Everyone at the party was so impressed with the cake and cupcakes! We will definitely be coming back!

    Gluten and dairy free cupcakes. Oreo, blueberry, and hot cocoa were INCREDIBLE!
    Mateo M.

    Wife avoids dairy and gluten and found this place and wanted to give it a try, we went late in the day but tried what was left of the gf/df options and they were super good! I tried a couple regular cupcakes and they were great also. My wife pre ordered a gluten/dairy free dozen recently and I was blown away by how good they were. The oreo, blueberry, and hot cocoa gf/df cupcakes were incredible- I would've never guessed they were gf/df. I also tried a cinnamon toast crunch cupcake and it was pretty good, I just liked the other 3 a lot more. I wish I would've ordered myself a dozen too lol- next time! I live in the central valley but when we're in the area we're going to make it a point to come here! Staff was also super friendly. I used to love feelgood bakery in Alameda and now that it's closed this is my new favorite spot in the area

    holiday-themed mini cupcakes!

    I have ordered birthday cakes and cupcakes (both regular and gluten free) from Rebekah of Doodlecakes for the past 3 years. Everything has been amazing: delicious and beautifully decorated. She is also super responsive and does great custom cakes as well. I so appreciate her care and attention to detail, especially when it comes to common allergens like nuts and eggs. It's so nice to be able to support a local family-run business that does great work and is run by such lovely people. Highly recommend.

    Doodlecakes is on Central, right next to the intersection of Webster Street, and across from the Coast Guard Recruitment office. Stopped in for a sweet snack while running errands nearby. Got the coco choco cupcake $4.25 and it was very tasty and moist, made well with good ingredients that you can taste. Some cupcakes are also made without eggs, dairy or gluten. I believe they change their cupcake flavors and designs weekly. If you opt in to their text messaging service, you can get 10% off your next order.

    Custom Jungle Cake
    Karen C.

    Doodlecakes may have a small storefront, but I would give it lots of kudos for service! Rebekkah was very responsive and accommodating. I also really liked their the online ordering and payment system. It was really convenient. The custom jungle cake that I ordered for my son's birthday was so adorable and cute! The cake was really moist, which we appreciated. However, it was a tad too sweet and had a little too much frosting on the outside of the cake. But, this may have just been due to the design that I wanted as it had to hold the jungle animals. I'm looking forward to my next event, so I can try some different flavors of cupcakes!

    John Wick themed cake
    Rachel M.

    I have a friend who always brings cupcakes and cakes from this place and they are so good! My friend said the owners are a couple, one as the baker and the other in sales. They have creative tasty flavors and do custom orders really well. You name it they can do it- from John Wick to a vegan beer-themed cake! I've also had several of their cupcakes and they are tasty with yummy toppings and presentation. I have yet to personally order from them because they are a bit further from me and I've been spoiled by my friend who has this place as their go-to dessert spot. I know who to go to for my next custom cake!

    Discovered this shop at the Alameda Art and Wine Festival and so glad I did! Their cupcakes are flavorful and moist. A week later, I was in Alameda and had to stop by the shop. Not all the cupcakes i bought are pictured as I shared with my parents. The red velvet, chocolate chip, cookies and cream and the ones with chocolate are my favorites I know it's hard to choose with all great options!

    Chocolate cupcake with caramel frosting and whip cream so beautiful and delicious
    Roxanne B.

    Thank you so much for the most amazing cupcakes for my dear sisters birthday They were moist flavorful and delicious

    Custom Truck cake!
    Kate D.

    Rebekah does it again! Our lil buddy turned two and now two years in a row Rebekah has made magic on his birthday. We received many remarks not only about how it was a work of art, but also the tastiest cake they've ever had. I sent over a few inspo picks from Pinterest, and very quickly Rebekah understood the vision. The consistency of the both the cake and frosting is 10/10. Art + flavor win/win. Thank you Rebekah and team!

    me with the cake

    I last minute decided to get a cake for my birthday boat, and Rebekah Scott was so sweet and accommodating to help with my request! She provided me with all the details I needed, and created this beautiful cake for my birthday. Even after closing hours, she helped answer all my questions! It was literally my first time ever ordering a cake for myself; Rebekah made the experience very straightforward and provided such kind services. Thankful she accepted my last minute request :) My friends and I all LOVED the pandan coconut cake with coconut whipped cream. Literally everyone not only devoured the cake, but asked me where I got it! Thanks so much for helping bring my vision to life for my birthday. Also, I love the name of this bakery! (I have a goldendoodle, so it's rather fitting that I ordered from here LOL)

    This review is long overdue! I ordered a custom vegan Ube cake and one dozen vegan ube cupcakes for my uncle and aunt in December 2023. I haven't seen them in close to 10 years and wanted to give them something they would enjoy. I made the right choice, as they found the cake and cupcakes to be delicious. I also appreciate the wonderful customer service from Rebekah, as she was very responsive via email and patient with all of my questions. Fast forward to July 2024, I went in-store to order a Chocolate Wasted cupcake from here, and it was so delicious that I didn't end up taking a picture. The customer service was excellent in-store as it was via email. Will definitely come back when I want my cupcake fix and also for special occasions!

    The cake!
    threeholepunch y.

    Outstanding for custom cakes. I sent an inspiration photo from a rather high maintenance client and got timely and helpful communication back from Rebekah. The final product looked perfect and also tasted delicious!

    See all

At $4.75 each or $54/dozen for standard size cupcakes, the price is a bit steep, but these also aren't just your regular supermarket cupcakes. They taste amazing, are beautifully presented, many are even filled, and you can tell they use high quality ingredients. They make the perfect gift for a special occasion. I'm a baker and am a bit of a cake snob. I've eaten some beautiful cupcakes and found the taste doesn't always match the look- but that's not the case here. Flavors are on point, frosting is delicious and cake is light and airy. Many of the cupcakes are even filled. I can see why the key lime pie one is a favorite- I think I like it better than the pie version! The frosting tastes like cheesecake and it even has the classic pie crust on bottom. The crème brûlée cupcakes were unique and a standout also. They also have a gluten free option and a couple vegan options. I ordered online and it was quick and easy to pick up towards the back of Swan's Market. Staff was quick & friendly. There aren't many places around to buy a good cupcake, and none quite like these. I highly recommend them and will be a repeat customer.
