Eater beware! If you have one of these cupcakes, you will be back for more. And more! And more! Good thing they have a frequent buyer card. They have a variety of both chocolate and vanilla cakes with an even larger variety of icings, including seasonal options. They are heavenly! Light and fluffy, and just the perfect sweetness in both the cake and the icing. If you're looking for an amazing cupcake or cake (did I neglect to mention they have full cakes for order?) you absolutely can depend on Fat Cupcake. I have stopped by at the last minute for cupcakes several times and they have always been able to accommodate my dozen and even 2 dozen needs. I highly recommend planning ahead for full cakes. Although they also a few ready to take home. Even if you have to drive across town, you will not be disappointed. Totally worth the drive! read more

Wonderful cake!!! Maybe the best cake I've ever had; super moist and delicious even days later. Sierra really brought my vision to life. They even gave me a $10 discount when there was a mixup of where I was picking up my cake. Would definitely recommend Fat Cupcake for a custom cake. read more

First time coming here. It's a nice and clean bakery. They have wheat free items to choose from. I'm not much into chocolate filling. So I picked up the Daisy Hayes cupcake. White cake with strawberry mousse and vanilla buttercream. It was so delicious. Parking is side street only. No parking lot available. read more

I love this place! It smells so good, the instant you walk in the store, and the staff is very friendly, helpful and quick! I love the concept of getting a full-size cupcake or a mini one to taste and try different ones. And, the flavor choices are mouth-watering delicious! The first time I went I got full-size cupcakes, and the last time we got a dozen mini- ones and it was fun cuz everyone in the family got to try different ones! I am so grateful that this cupcakery is in my neighborhood! I highly recommend them for any occassion! read more

It's such a shame--Fat Cupcake used to be our go-to! But recently every experience is just so disappointing. Staff are apathetic or downright rude. The cupcakes are good but it's not worth the treatment. read more

I love this place,great cupcakes, season flavors, great service and parking is easy.

I have followed Fat Cupcake on social media for awhile, I honestly don't recall how I found out about them but hadn't been able to get to their Oregon City location. I was ecstatic to find out they were opening a new location closer to me and I just had to make it to their grand opening! I visited their new location in SE Portland off of Woodstock and it was beautiful! The shop is bright and welcoming and has several great photo worthy designs for a cute backdrop and photo op. It's not a huge space but if you plan to take your cupcakes to go then it's perfect but there were several tables to stay and enjoy your treats on sight. Since it was the grand opening we got free party cupcake [vanilla cake with sprinkles] and it was perfection! One the cake is so light and fluffy and the perfect amount of sweet. It melted in my mouth SO good!! We also snagged some minis to take home and enjoy later and they were also very delicious and moist! I am a little biased when it comes to chocolate flavors because I am a sucker for chocolate but my favorite flavors we tried were the Black Velvet and Dough Boy! read more

A great spot for a sweet treat! I typically hate getting cakes for a small celebration, as I know that it'll never be finished, so cupcakes are a great alternative. Fat Cupcake offers a wide variety of cupcakes and in both a bigger and mini size. They also do regular cakes and catering. Amazing. When I went here, the inside of the shop smelled heavenly and all of the cupcakes looked divine. I love how there's so many different flavors and from the ones I've tried, they're all delicious. I highly recommend this spot for cupcakes in Portland! read more

Delicious and creative cupcakes! You get a free one on your birthday. Friendly staff and clean shop. Just kind of out of the way if you live on the western end of town. read more

Cupcakes always feel a bit overrated and expensive. I have to say fat cupcake is a bit of a game changer. We ordered a variety of xmas cakes. The cake is light and fluffy. The frosting is not overly sweet. The extra touches on design are unique. They also have great carrying boxes so they don't tip when you carry them. We are a big fan. Enjoy! read more

The branding is cute, and I was sold by the social media presence and reviews left by others on Yelp and Google. Being a foodie, having a sweet tooth and always seeking to find the "best in its category" locally, I am sharing my honest feedback based on my experience. The store I went to was in SE Portland, coming from Beaverton, about a 30 min drive. It's a very cute and small store with a vintage vibe to it, no onsite parking but close enough parking available in the residential street nearby. They did enforce safety precautions for covid (limited capacity and mask requirement), which I appreciated. The ladies at the counter and whoever I placed the order with on the phone were gems and a delight to work with. Great attitude and customer service. They even accommodated a slight tweak in my order (not custom) an hour before I picked up. They have everyday flavor offerings as well as limited/seasonal flavors (for Easter they had carrot cake and hoppy easter cupcakes) in both regular and mini sizes. You can also go the custom route but there is a minimum order of 12. I did not opt for that only because this was for my virtual baby shower and I didn't need a dozen cupcakes all to myself, just for the decor. I ordered 6 of the regular sized ones in: The Intern, The Professional, Lemon Doodle and White Velvet. The box was nicely packaged and wrapped in saran wrap to preserve it in the fridge until it was time to display/eat. Coming to the taste of the cupcakes, I reallllyyy did not like the mouth feel of the frosting, but that's just me. It felt very greasy/oily in the mouth which I wasn't a fan of. While it wasn't exactly the cheap buttercream frosting that some of the grocery store bakeries have, it also was not like the cool, fluffy frosting with that delicate balance of sweet and creaminess- it just felt like I had a bunch of shortening in my mouth. The cake itself was underwhelming, not to be critical but I have had boxed cake mix that was more moist and flavorful. The cake flavors unfortunately were too bland to be anything noteworthy. The combination of the texture of the frosting and the dull cake flavors was not a win for me in the cupcake department. I will continue my search to find the perfect cupcake in Portland! If you're looking for something cute, reasonably priced and don't care so much about the cupcake flavor being generic, it's a great place. But if you're looking for a truly exceptional flavor/texture experience, perhaps this wouldn't be the top choice. Ultimately, my rating was based on the exceptional service I received and not the taste of the cupcake as much, because that's completely subjective and people have different preferences when it comes to what appeals to them personally. read more

Absolutely delicious cakes, cupcakes, and cookies! It was my wife's birthday and she wanted a pink champagne cake. I knew I couldn't get a cake made in time so I happened across Fat Cupcake. I called the phone number on Yelp, and called. They said they had a pink Champagne cake and it would be ready when I stopped by in 15 minutes. I couldn't believe it! While I was there, I bought a mini cupcake and a chocolate chip cookie for my 7-year old who is a cookie snob. The inside of the shop is quaint with a boutique feel and the employees have service down to a T! Everyone was welcoming and accommodating in my last minute scramble. The prices are reasonable and the offerings in the front are plentiful and mouth watering! When I brought my purchases home I gave the chocolate chip cookie to my son and I watched him to gauge his response. Upon the first bite he had a measured look on his face but after a moment his eyes got large and he said it was delicious! He had had chocolate chip cookies from all over the world and he said this is a contender for the best. My wife loved the cake and the fact that she closed her eyes after the first bite said it all. We have a few more birthdays this month and even though the drive is an hour a way, whenever a cake is required I know where I will go. read more

Absolutely wonderful! We were looking for a wedding cake for our COVID-delayed wedding reception. I contacted a couple of places that were no longer doing cakes due to the pandemic, then one place that was super expensive. When I contacted Fat Cupcake, they responded right away and said they would be thrilled to do our cake. I work in customer service and this really said a lot to me. They were super easy to work with. They do a to-go cake tasting, which makes sense in these pandemic times, and it's only $10. It was so much fun to take the cake, filling and frosting samples home and taste everything! I was pleased to discover that their products were so good. We ended up getting a three layer cake, with a different frosting for one layer and different fillings for each layer. They delivered the cake to our event space, which made everything so seamless and easy for us. We wanted a simple looking cake, it was really nice looking and perfect! The cake itself was soooo delicious. Many of our guests thought the vanilla cake with lemon curd filling was the best, but we loved the vanilla cake with raspberry filling and chocolate icing. Everyone kept saying how moist and tasty the cake was, and asking us who did it. I'm diabetic and can only have sugar a few times a year on special occasions, this was such a fantastic treat, Fat Cupcake really made our reception special! read more

$2.75 for ONE mini cupcake? You all are charging Sprinkles Cupcakes prices when you are definitely not Sprinkles Cupcakes quality. Not worth the price for something that is gone in one, maybe two bites. The frosting is thin and lackluster and the cake part is not dense enough. Tastes similar to something I can find in Albertsons or Vons. Picture is from the delivery I got, cupcakes were already tipped over. You all should consider getting a different type of box to store cupcakes. Lame. read more

It was our first time having these cupcakes. I ordered them online. They were very beautiful and extremely tasty. We had the cupcakes delivered and they came expertly packaged. The only thing I wish I had known was that a small cupcake really meant mini cupcake. They were delicious, but it would be nice website if the photos or descriptions represented the sizes better. I would have purchased the bigger ones if I had known. read more

Love this place but the address on here isn't right. Was lost for a while until I looked on their website.

Cupcakes are amazing but I will have to say service wasn't all that great. The person that took my order wasn't a very good listener. I had asked for 3 items and only got two out of the 3. I went back in to get the third item. She seemed confused for some reason. It wasn't even that busy and she wasn't very accommodating. read more

Wonderful local bakery I paid a visit on Friday evening. They have a great selection of cupcakes that my wife and I loved. Pay them a visit and I promise you will not regret it. We will definitely be back soon! read more

Their cupcakes are delicious and so moist! I love that they are offering a Take Home Decorating Kit for their cupcakes during this time. This makes for a great activity to do with kids or even just for yourself to keep busy during the quarantine. My nephew loved being able to frost his own cupcake and add as many sprinkles as he wanted. They offer these kits in a dozen and half dozen quantity. read more

My husband and I met on Bumble so we ordered a BeeHive shaped wedding cake from Fat Cupcake for our wedding. It was fantastic! We also had a tower of mini cupcakes in an assortment of flavors and all of our guests raved about them. Windy and the team at Fat Cupcake were great to work with during the planning process and helped facilitate a fun cupcake tasting event prior to the big day so we could pick our favorite flavors. We highly recommend Fat Cupcake! read more

VEGAN / WHEAT FREE VANILLA & CHOCOLATE cupcakes available! $3.5 per cupcake. I think it is a little too sweet so I have to eat half and save the other half for later. I wish there were mini sizes available but if you're ever in the area, just know that fat cupcake has vegan options!! read more

Wow! I'll be honest that I'm pretty picky about baked goods since I bake so much at home, so I'm always hesitant about trying a new place. This place was absolutely amazing! We bought 7 different cupcakes and they were all delicious (although we ate 3 before remembering to take a picture).The pink champagne one wasn't as good as the rest BUT that is because they're all already at such a high quality of flavor so it was still good. The Nanny which I think was seasonal was definitely the star. The intern and the one with Oreo close seconds. I look forward to coming back here soon. read more

I generally don't care for cookies n cream, but their cookies n cream cupcake was pretty good so that won me over. The cupcake crumb is light and fluffy, only slightly dry. The frosting very good, lots of flavor. The presentation is very nice. I like the various flavors and their names. I tried four different ones and Suit & Tie was my favorite (black and white cake with caramel frosting). read more

The lady was super friendly, was helpful with describing all the flavors and recommending her favorites. It was in a sketchy part of town and the building wasn't the prettiest also smelled like mildew. She said that they were trying to move to a new location asap and that it was going to be much bigger and nicer. Can't wait to see it! We got six big cupcakes and they barely made it home because we couldn't stop eating them. Our favorite flavor was the lemon one. So delicious definitely going back the next time we are in Portland! read more

My husband lay ill with Covid on his birthday. All he wanted was to try out Fat Cupcake. Since I was the one who gave him Covid, a trip to Fat Cupcake was the least I could do. I was impressed with the array of cupcakes and appreciated that they came in mini sizes. The service was prompt and friendly. In the blink of an eye, I had a box with one of everything for my sick hubby - and everyone else in the household. read more
