    a slice of cake on a plate with a knife
    Kat K.

    We purchased a custom cake for my birthday girl , design of cake was great , unfortunately the sides was ruined through transport. Wasn't sure if we ordered a butter cream or a chocolate cake because the ratio of buttercream overpowered the cake , overly sweet for 7 year olds . 3 stars because they have a great variety of cupcakes which I should have opted for

    Franklin, cosmic brownie, early grey, chocolate cheesecake, red velvet and vanilla sprinkle

    The cupcakes were phenomenal! Highly reccomend - my entire family enjoyed them. The service was great, it's always nice to be greeted with a smile.

    The box height does not fit the cake. The box cover has to be half open and taped on both sides so as to not push down the decoration

    I had birthday cake ordered from this shop. I got their name from a bake shop where I normally ordered birthday cakes for my family but they are fully booked so they suggested to me to try this Happy Cakes. Well, our experienced with their cake and service was disappointing. 1) I went to the store to pickup the cake. It was an 8in Get Cherried Away cake. I was surprised when the lady packed the cake. The box doesn't fit the height of the cake. She let the box cover half open and taped the cover flaps on both sides so as not to push down the decorations on the top. If you are selling signature cakes like this, you must have at least a proper box that would fit the cake. Even if removing those cherries and icing decorations on the top of the cake, the box is still short. 2) The layering of the cake was not done properly. I have ordered cakes from other stores and when you cut the cake you can see how the layers inside the cake hold up. Theirs does not. So when we took a slice from the cake, it would crumble when you put it on a plate. The cake is too moist. And the taste of the cake and the Bavarian filling is similar to the ready made cake you can order from a food store. I could have just bought a cake from a food store and would definitely get a proper box and would not expect so much on the taste as I get what I'm paying for. We just consumed a quarter of the cake and all of us didn't finish our slices. The icing is fine. 3) As what the other reviewers have mentioned, the staff who I dealt with when I picked-up my cake was cold and not friendly. Except for the one who took my order, she seems to be friendly. I entered their store with a smile and make sure that I follow their safety guidelines on Covid19. The bright side of all these is that the cake was for my birthday and not for my wife's and I'm the one who ordered the cake. Otherwise, it would be a different level of disappointment than I had.

    So good! (May 2022)

    Delicious cupcakes with a vast variety of flavors. My absolute favorite is their Red Velvet - probably the best Red Velvet cupcakes I've tried due to their amazing icing! Honestly, their best cupcakes are anything that contain their cream cheese icing. The buttercream icing is good, but doesn't hold a candle to their cream cheese icing. On this occasion, I decided to try their filled cupcakes. I tried the following: BC Becky (get this!), Lemon Lust, Strawberries N' Cream, Chocolate Cheesecake (get this!), Boston Cream (get this!), Chocolate Coconut (get this!),Cadbury Cream Egg, Strawberry Poptart, Cookie Dough. Their flavors change all the time (the online order form only has their regular flavors), so I'd recommend going in person to order to check out their ever changing offerings. If you love cupcakes (especially Red Velvet), you'll love this place!

    I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon as I was in the area and it was an impulse purchase of a cupcake. Their flavour selection was lacking as it seemed like most flavours were sold out for the day. I got the last "lemon lust" cupcake. Cupcake was fresh. There was lemon curd filling with lemon icing. The cake part was moist. No complaints other than the lack of options.

    These are not your grandma's cakes and cupcakes! Walking in this warm little bakery is like being greeted by the scent of angels and sweet sugary delight. There are a plethora of custom cake examples upfront for all sorts of occasions and the cupcakes further back are carefully encased to seal in the flavor. We stuck to cupcakes as we're in town on vacation, but I would definitely get a birthday cake from here if I lived closer. Let's talk cupcakes. Flavorful, moist, and easy to eat more than one! We ended up getting about a dozen for our group and everyone was amazed at the accuracy of the flavors - the strawberry milkshake actually tasted like a real shake. My main choice was the red velvet based off of Rachel's (the owner) recommendation and it did not disappoint. Thick cream cheese icing over the most delicious red velvet base. Rachel and her mom were so patient with us as some in our group had difficulty choosing among the tempting selection of cupcakes and were just as much of a highlight as the desserts! I would definitely come here again next time we're in town!

    Fresh Fresh Fresh :) Cakes for all occasions. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. If you're looking for a custom cake, give these folks a shot. 2 day cupcake tier rental. Cupcake is $3.10 a mini is $1.50. Nice assortment of flavours. Some seating in store is available. No coffee or tea though. They are open 7 days a week M-S 10:00 and 11:00 on Sundays.

    6/22/19 Davey/Schumann wedding cake was absolutely beautiful . Thank you SO MUCH!!!

    Happycakes made our wedding cake 6/22/19 and it was absolutely gorgeous and delicious! They made my sisters wedding cake years ago and I was happy to have my wedding cake made by them. Highly recommend for any special occasion or for just their cupcakes that are also so yummy!!!

    Great looking cakes, great service on short notice, no complaints. Highly recommend this place!

    We came back for my son's first birthday and once again, Rachel delivered!! This time I wanted to do a Toy Story themed birthday party so requested a Toy Story cake and Rachel made the most amazing and tasty cake that got lots of compliments. Overall, Happycakes has never disappointed and I will definitely return for future birthdays!

They melt in your mouth and perfect texture. We got: MANGO BINGSOO -the best of the bunch. They used sweet Manila mangoes so they were sweet and delicious. Will be my go -to from this point on STRAWBERRY BINGSOO - it was okay. The strawberries were not as sweet so maybe it would be better during strawberry season (whenever that is)? OREO BINGSOO - pretty good. My nephew liked it a lot CHEESECAKE BINGSOO - skip it. You get 4 tiny slices of cheesecake to the side and some crumbs on top that were pretty good but just didn't pack as much flavor as the others we had.

    I was intrigued by the Asian desserts they served so I convinced my "I swear by ice cream on any…read moreday" kind of husband to try this new place. Expected it to be a small place serving some desserts but this place is huge and had a very young vibe! We looked around and everyone was digging into a big tub spooning out it's "shaved ice" like contents into small bowls and enjoying it. That's what I want i decided. It was Bingsoo! So delicious!! It comes in fruit flavours among others and we opted for strawberry bingsoo but I saw everyone going for a mango one. The bingsoo came in a big tub like bucket which had ice cream in the middle , ice on top and it was covered with strawberries and topped with whipped creme . We enjoyed it and it was frankly a little too much for 3 of us. We also tried the Nutella filled pancakes which were flaky and light! Definitely worth trying. Food: 3.5/5 Ambience: 3.5/5 Service: 3.5/5

It was beautiful especially signage. I particularly loved the giraffe. The inside is not big, but it doesn't feel tight. They also have outdoor seating which was nice. Although it was busy, the accommodating service never lacked. So happy to see people enjoy what they do! I ordered the ube matcha with macadamia milk. I didn't even know macadamia nuts could turn into milk!! But it's become my favourite milk alternative. The drink itself was a perfect balance of all 3. I find that usually one over powers the other, but the ube, matcha, and milk all came through. I also ordered the mini cupcakes and they were just right. The cupcake flavours change daily which is great as you will never get tired of it (they post the flavours on their ig story). We also could not leave without the malasadas which was fluffy and creamy and not too sweet! Overall a great experience. Will definitely come back the next time I visit.

We were pleasantly surprised that they offer guests access to their full drink menu including their specials. Ube matcha was good, but had a hint of cinnamon which we could have gone without. The matcha mango was also good. The blackberry lavender matcha was too floral for our liking. However, eventually you get used to it and then it becomes more enjoyable. The pandesals were super fresh and we loved both the ube and strawberry butters that came with it. I wish that they came a bit warmer, so that the butters could have melted a touch. I thoroughly enjoyed all 3 sandwiches. I especially loved the arugula on the mozerella sandwich. The blackberry brie sandwich could have used a touch more brie, but was still delicious. The cheesecakes were good, but a bit too sweet. The strawberry was my favorite. I enjoyed tasting multiple flavors. Their red velvet cupcake was extremely moist. The pistachio malasada was cute and flavorful. The filling to pastry ratio was good. I think that the experience could have been better balanced if there were a few more savory items. One thing that we noticed was that all of the pastries including the malasada were cold. I can understand that there are some food safe requirements that need to be met in how desserts are stored. However, letting them sit out for even 20-30 minutes before consumption would have been better.
