I went…read moreto their east bay location first and was delighted when they opened a location here in SF a few years back. The cupcake is fresh and moist and not dense while the frosting is not too sweet and balances the treat out. My favorite is the salted caramel and key lime.

I felt the price she quoted was fair for what I asked her to do. I sent her a picture and she was able to re-create a fun image from that picture for the cake design.

Everyone was very impressed, adding to the fun birthday atmosphere. I highly recommend Minx Cakes

We know that whatever is going to be baked at NVB is beautiful, delicious and creative!

I'd like to try the mission fig bread next. I thought their sourdough batard book was average but good. PARKING Parking can be challenging in the area. The muni line running by it means that it's hard to make u turns and there can be quite a bit of traffic. DISCOUNTS They have a "happy hour" from 3-6pm every day where their drinks are $3. They also have a senior discount Tuesdays and Thursdays. AMBIANCE Ambiance is casual.

It was later of the day cause when I arrived only 2 cupcakes were left, BooHoo. SO I got the remaining chocolate cupcakes with strawberry butter cream. I was w/my daughter and we were getting candy bags as well. Got home tried the cupcakes. It was really good! The chocolate cake is soo moist. I love butter cream frosting but never had strawberry buttercream so I was skeptical! But yes it was really good as well!! The combination of both really satisfied my sweet tooth. I totally recommend and I also would love to visit the other location, ferry building. More cupcakes to feast! (I love the pink bag)

Wow I am impressed with their macaroons and the old fashion cupcake…read more The macaroons are different from others that I tried. They are made with coarsely ground almonds with the skins intact. They do not add any food coloring or processed flavorings, so they are distinctly rustic and natural. It is not sticky, gooey or has too much sugar stuck on them. I like the hazelnut flavor. The cupcakes are decorated nicely. Their Italian Meringue Cupcake is a rich Double-Chocolate cake with a light and fluffy marshmallow-like texture makes me think of a hostess cupcake. I had two yellow cream cheese frosting gingerbread cupcakes, raspberry chocolate and strawberry vanilla cupcake. I am happy with the selection I received which is a great way to try and determine if this bakery knows how to make a good cupcake. I enjoyed their carrot cake cupcake. All cupcakes were nice and moist, the frosting is always the key to a good cupcake. Thank you and I hope to stop by again and try a cake.

We went late in the day which I assume affected the texture of the cake (They were a little dry). We got chocolate salted caramel which had great flavor. We especially liked the frosting which was fluffy and not too sweet, red velvet which had an artificial taste, banana which tasted too fake, and lemon which had a delicious custard or pudding filling. All in all, we enjoyed the cupcakes but next time we will try to get there earlier when they're fresher.

The inside of the shop is so cute with a bunch of cupcake decorations. We ordered a Taro Cupcake and a Chocolate Tres leches cupcake. They were both very delicious and I preferred the Taro cupcake.

You order at the counter that has the cupcakes on display. There were a handful of people there ordering cupcakes!
