We stopped by to get a few cupcakes. We were immediately greeted by a friendly employee who gave us a complimentary shortcake cookie. It was so beautiful, I wish I took a picture! The cookie was so light and buttery, I highly recommend them! We each picked out a cupcake and 2 chocolate croissants. The gentleman didn't charge me for 2 of the cupcakes or the croissants because kids eat free. We'll definitely be returning for more cookies and cupcakes! read more

The German chocolate cake was so moist and delicious! I also ordered a chocolate croissant and it was the first one I ever had that wasn't dried out and crunchy. I ate both before I could get photos lol I really love this place and excited for making custom orders for work, birthdays and house warming gifts. The staff was so kind and their website is beautiful read more

This place was amazing. Seriously, go check it out. Probably the best bakery in Mesa. My wife and I stopped in yesterday after parking nearby to have lunch across the parking lot. The instant the door opened we were surrounded by the amazing smell of freshly baked goods. My wife worked in a bakery during college and this brought back so many memories for the both of us. The ambiance was cozy yet clean, and the gentleman behind the counter was a pleasure to talk to. I wish I remembered his name! On to the food... they have an extensive selection of cupcakes and shortbread cookies. Also are daily and weekend specials which are scheduled out so you'll have a good idea of what they'll have if you're looking for something specific. We enjoyed two shortbread cookies and a the triple berry crumble bar. Both were excellent with vibrant flavors. The berry bar obviously used fresh fruit - something I find most bakeries skimp on. The shortbread cookies were the perfect consistency; not too crumbly, not too thick, and perfectly flavored. We can't wait to come back on the weekend to try the cinnamon rolls and baguettes! Oh, and they also offer high tea, which I'll be booking for my wife's birthday in a couple weeks! read more

An incredibly lovely and dainty local bakery with so many goods that are all delicious~! I really want to try more things the next time I visit! I also love the aesthetic and vibes of the bakery; the Mucha art is such a great touch! And the service is stellar!! The people there are so sweet and kind! I placed a custom order for some cookies using some cookie cutters that I own and the day before I am to pick up my order, it got cancelled. I was busy doing something with my SO when suddenly I got an email about it. I got worried and thought that perhaps I filled out the custom order form incorrectly or something, so the next day, I dropped in to inquire about it. They told me that they also didn't cancel it on their end, so something might've gone wrong with the reservation system, and they apologized for the inconvenience and said I could come in the next day to pick up the order. Before I left, I wanted to order a tart but they said because of the inconvenience, it was on the house! They even let my SO have a cookie on the house. I was really shocked, I didn't expect this kindness at all! Honestly, they were speaking so kindly and cordially with me already, which was more than enough for me nowadays, so for them to go to such lengths when they didn't have to in order to ensure I would be satisfied meant a whole lot But somehow they surpassed even that because the next day, I find that my custom order was basically doubled from 7 cookies to 16, and they said that the order would be free due to the trouble caused by what happened with the sudden cancellation! I was just so stunned, I asked multiple times if they were sure, I was really about to get my card out to pay but they insisted it was free and that it's alright. I didn't have cash on my person right then, but I did have some in my vehicle that day, and I just had to leave a tip~!! It was so so incredibly and unexpectedly kind and thoughtful of them to do for me, and the custom order turned out absolutely superb, both in taste and presentation. What a wonderful and fantastic bakery, I am so happy I discovered this place and I am sure to return for more! read more

Elysian Fields - custom ffxiv cookies! from top to bottom row (flavors): orchid, datura, sakura, lavender - Cupcakes Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Short review: go there! Excellent! Delicious! Passionate owners/employees! Fun! Did I say "Go There?" Longer review: first, the prior, positive reviews I've read are spot on. Usually, I find a place like this on yelp, but actually saw them when stopping at RJs cigar lounge a few shops down. I mean, what could be better? Awesome baked goods and cigars! We needed some rolls for soup we were having and I was actually letting homemade Italian French bread (pane Frances) rise, but it wasn't going to be ready. Anyway, saw this place and figured even if they don't have rolls, I've go to check them out. Ended up buying croissants and truffles. They make their own truffles- MAN! Better than my cigar! Some of the best truffles I've had. Mine was some kind of dome shaped, dark chocolate, brown sugar, caramel creamy, delectable, addicting peace of goodness. They gave me a free shortbread cookie, too. I didn't let anyone at home know I had that - excellent. Light, but buttery. Evidently family run. They were very proud of their goods, and for good reason. They said they even make custom cakes based on your description of a prior childhood treat that you remember. They will investigate and figure out what that is and see if they can make it. Now that's craftsmanship. We need craft bakeries like this. And they are hard to find. It takes a lot of work to do what they do. Just as a hobbyist home Baker, who occasionally dabbles with croissants and other breads, I appreciate the effort they do to turn out superior products all the time. In fairness, my review is based on my first trip, but from what I saw, and what I tasted, I have no doubt the rest of their products are probably exceptional. Give this place a try. I wish I had taken pictures. But we gobbled the stuff up too quickly. read more

These folks can BAKE! I ordered a classic, two-layer, 8" round chocolate cake. It was absolutely decadent!! Everything you hope for... perfectly dense, moist, rich and just the right level of sweetness. A chocolate-lovers dream. Called on a Friday afternoon, for Sunday pickup - and Jason got it done for me. I really appreciated him turning it around so quickly. Oh and I grabbed some cupcakes too! Strawberry lemonade, lemon coconut, chocolate overload, salted caramel, oreo cookie, classic vanilla.. my FAV was peanut butter! They were all so good. Light and fluffy. Like I said, these folks can bake! And he even helped me carry everything to the car. Super happy with their product and service. I forgot to take a decent picture, but this video screenshot will do. *the topper is from Amazon read more

The aesthetic, the treats, and each of the team members were extremely friendly and sweet! You can tell this cozy shop is run with love (and lots of sugar). Their set up outside is so cute!

From cupcakes, lavender biscuits to little apothecary/aromatherapy scents, you'll be in love! I got the Coats Tail (tuxedo cake), lemonchello, Carrot Cake and Black Magic (chocolate on chocolate) cupcakes and each bite was to DIE for!

As soon as we walked in, the smell was sweet, like a traditional bakery. Welcomed and greeted politely by the owner/baker. Offered vanilla or orange, to which selected vanilla. The cookie was absolutely amazing, beautifully decorated with gold sprinkles on top. Cupcakes were elegantly decorated, purchased some for later to take home. Returned shortly after for more cookies to bring home for the kids. Thank you, will be a returning customer soon. read more

Thank you so much Elysian Fields for making such perfection!! This cake was definitely celebrated and even more delicious than we could have expected!

I'd like to start by saying this place is GORGEOUS on the inside. We were promptly greeted by a kind man who happily answered all of our questions about what things were.

They also apparently offer tea parties once it is less hot outside! read more

This place has THE best cupcakes. Ever. You will not regret trying every single option. The owners are super friendly and will go out of their way to make your order special. Called and needed two dozen special order cupcakes for grand daughters birthday party 2 days out. I ordered "funfetti" cupcakes with "unicorn" frosting and sprinkles ( can't forget the sprinkles!). Everyone loved them and some parents asked us where we got them. I tell anyone who will listen, and even those who don't, that cups and cakes is seriously the best quality cupcake in the valley! Hands down. Yum!! read more

Absolutely love this place! As a new customer, I got to sample one of their shortbread cookies for free and it was DELICIOUS.

Wonderful and friendly little bakery! They made a cake for my granddaughter's 8th birthday with little direction. Gave them a birthday cake topper and basically said they should just roll with it, lol! Couldn't have turned out better. We also grabbed a few things to munch on while picking up the cake and those were delicious as well. I'd definitely recommend for anyone who wants something made that is beautiful and doesn't break your piggy bank. read more

I can say enough about this place. I went in today for the first time and this place is amazing I loved the warm feeling and how nice it is... I had the most delicious croissant in the world , bought a key lime tart for my husband and a shortbread cookie and everything was delicious !! I never got out of the parking lot and the croissant was eaten up !!The owner was a so genuine , friendly and very personal. They are beyond just 5 stars.. I will tell all my friends about this place.. this will be my go to place !! Can't wait to try the cupcakes next!! read more

The very best. I've gone to so many cupcake bakery's all over the valley and never ever had any that compare to these. Every flavor of Icing and cake is distinctively one of a kind. Most places the cake part tastes synthetic and so much Icing glopped on top. Sickening sweet Hats off to Jason. He did so much research and his final product is tops Thank you for your hard work. And beautiful cupcakes read more

Love this place! Such a nice variety and they are Delicious ‼ Bought 3 to take home and share to see if they were good enough to give for a dear Friends Birthday. Also tried another spot but Cups And Cakes beat the other place, hands down. The Salted Carmel is unbelievable. Loved the Chocolate too. Went back and bought a nice variety for the Birthday and got rave reviews. I don't live near this place but they are worth the drive. Can't wait to return and try more flavors. read more

The cookies here are as delicious as they are beautiful. The owners are super friendly and are helpful and accommodating. These cookies are perfect for a snack or a beautiful gift. I'm super picky when it comes to baked goods but this place impressed me. read more

I am totally disappointed (insert sad face). I was so excited when I heard this store reopened. I was expecting the same goodness and deliciousness as Cups and Cakes. The new store, Elysian Fields, did not meet my expectations. Nor, did they meet the expectations of my mother and husband. We were loyal repeat customers of Cups and Cakes. So when Elysian Fields took its place we were excited to sink our teeth into a moist and flavorful cupcake. When we walked inside there were only like 3, maybe 4, flavors of cupcakes to choose from and not many of each. My mother noticed the cupcakes were smaller than the ones previously offered by Cups and Cakes. I, too, noticed the difference. However, the biggest difference is the texture. They were not moist and they were slightly crumbly and dry. My husband can usually polish off 6 cupcakes in a few days. He only had one. We ended up pitching the rest, along with the rum cakes we had purchased. It was a total waste of money. Elysian Fields charges $4 per cupcake. Cups and Cakes had charged $3 per cupcake. When we were inside a staff member offered us a small shortbread to sample. I chose the Cherry Blossom. Thinking I am sinking my teeth into a shortbread cookie similar to a Walker's I was horrified when the taste of soap came to my palate. Then I thought it tasted more like the smell of my great grandmother's cheap dime store perfume. Either way, it was rancid. I could not wait to get back to the car and drink some water. That taste lingered in my mouth for at least 5 minutes. It was horrible. Who in their right mind would enjoy a shortbread that tastes like scented soap/perfume? The lady inside over emphasized that they are known for their shortbread and it was the store specialty. Yikes! I hope they reevaluate their serviceable obtainable market for scented shortbreads. Otherwise, it will be a vacant space again. This store would be better suited if it was in Old Town Scottsdale or Sedona. Sorry Elysian Fields, 2 thumbs down on your cupcakes, rum cakes, and shortbread. Don't be fooled by the 4.5 stars. Those stars were earned by Cups and Cakes. Elysian Fields should have created their own Yelp page when they opened for business. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Cups and Cakes! We had a small wedding for about 25 people in Sedona and we decided to serve our guests cupcakes after the ceremony. We went to a few places in Mesa and Gilbert and tried their flavors but NO ONE compared to Cups and Cakes! Not only were the cupcakes to die for but the service was outstanding! Jason was beyond helpful and went above and beyond and made it so easy. Also, the cupcakes turned out gorgeous and everyone LOVED them! We will certainly be back for every occasion. I highly recommend giving them a try if you haven't already. P.S. the cookie dough frosting is my favorite! read more
