They have the most delicious, soft, fluffy, scrumptious cupcakes. They are big cupcakes with good prices. Worth every penny. The best place to get cupcakes EVER!!!!! I absolutely love this store. They have multiple flavors, I am sure you will find your favorite. They have cookies and gluten free options as well. I was super excited to learn They have cakes as well in couple flavors. Looking forward to trying them. Definitely a luxury treat and so worth traveling for them. I have yet to decide my favorite, I am planning on trying all the different flavor options! A must to check out read more

Do not buy cupcakes from here. Their recipe has changed and they no longer make the deliciously dense cupcakes we've grown to love. Instead they sell these weird overly sweet, spongey tiny cupcakes no better (or bigger) than your average supermarket cupcake. There is nothing defining or outstanding of their current cupcakes, in fact you'll see that they are mostly frosting now. I've stopped coming by to check out their selection because every time I do, I become irrationally angry thinking about how delicious these cupcakes used to be. Not to mention they no longer advertise their daily cupcakes so you just have to take a risk by walking in and getting stuck with something like a gluten free blackberry cheesecake that feels like it's scratching your throat the whole way down. If you want some cupcakes, save yourself some money and just go down to your local Bel Air or Nugget and order yourself a dozen cupcakes for no more than $12/dozen and they'll taste just as good or better. read more

Icing On The Cupcake - Cupcakes: Lemon Curd, Red Velvet, Snickerdoodle, and Chocolate cupcakes - Cupcakes Near Me - Sacramento, California

Sooo, Icing on the Cupcake wasn't my first choice for cupcakes, but being out of options, I turned here. I had to interact with several people working here - of the four people, one provided good/friendly customer service. They called me the day before my order pick-up date to tell me they didn't have a flavor I ordered weeks in advance. I told them the flavor I'd replace it with and that was that...there was no, "Sorry for the inconvenience" or "Thank you". After all that, the following day, I found out that they didn't make the update, and they wrote on the receipt "two missing". My mom picked up the order for me and when she saw the receipt, she asked them about it. The employee was confused, asked someone else about it, and then said to pick two from the case. So..l guess if my mom didn't say something I'd be out two cupcakes I had paid for? Later, when l opened the box to set up for the party, I saw they gave me the incorrect flavors for two of them. I don't really love paying for something that's not what I wanted. Just as an FYI, they charge your card as soon as you place the order, rather than the day of pick up like many bakeries/food establishments. Too many strikes for this business. I won't be back. Note: The cupcakes themself taste fine, but not the greatest cupcake I've had; also, definitely not worth the price tag if you're paying for flavors you're not receiving. read more

We've been patronizing the IOTCC brand for many years. After a light dinner a sweet tooth kicked and off we went in search of today's cupcake treats. My favorite flavors are Hummingbird, Bee Hive, and Pucker Up. Today I planned to get ONE cupcake. But thanks to Kaylene, who told us the cupcakes were BOGO (we arrived 10 mins before closing). So! We got enough for the house, plus some! Caramel Macchiato, Mocha, Carrot, Pucker Up, Vanilla, and Pink Delicious was our winners dozen for the day. Got home and enjoyed the vanilla and I'm so grateful IOTCC hasn't tampered with the recipe. Perfection must be left alone. Thanks again, Kaylene! read more

Came to Icing on the Cupcake for a Too Good To Go order. It's located in downtown and next to / connected to Chicago Fire. Besides cupcakes, they also have brownies and cookies. Street parking only. My Too Good To Go order was a variety of 5 cupcakes. They didn't list what the flavors are, but they look to be: Banana Strawberry Cinnamon/churro Vanilla with chocolate frosting Oreo The cupcakes were a little on the dry side and the frosting was way too sweet, but overall they were good. read more

I used to LOVE this place but this last time ordering left me a little torn...my cupcakes were nothing to rave about--they weren't even really decorated...I ordered a merry Christmas red velvet and there was nothing special about it...no topper like the Christmas tree one and all the others just seemed like shadows of their former selves. Not sure if that was just today or if this is a permanent change but I miss the cute touches like hearts and drizzles that make the cupcakes feel special. The lemon is still the star. The hot chocolate one literally just tastes like regular chocolate. It was meh. A little dry. They were fine overall just didn't hit the same in terms of visual appeal and flavor. Compare photos below from three years ago v my most recent order. The pink delicious alone explain it all. read more

These cupcakes used to be one of my favorites. I was in the area so I walked in to buy a cupcake. The place is underwhelming also the window of cupcakes. I wish they made more flavors and different flavors. The customer service could be better as well. I don't recall the last time I came here and there was good customer service. I bought a vanilla cupcake it was good but it did tasted different from when I last had it years ago. I also bought an Oreo and it was really disappointing. The cake itself was dry and lacked chocolate flavor. The frosting was not good either. It tasted low quality and effort. read more

I'm disappointed to give this review. I first tried this place when I was using the app too good to go and with that I would definitely write this place a 4-5 which brings my review today two or three because if it was just today alone, I would rate it one or two. The selection was very minimum . That I could've been OK with however, when I got home, I was really looking forward to trying something delicious. The cookie was an Oreo cookie. I would rate that a zero out of five and the cupcake itself. I would write a one and a half out of five. This is very painful for me to write because the fact that the cupcakes were good when I got them off the other app I decided to go in order on my own and pay full price . If this had been my first experience, I would be very upset . The price for one cupcake and one cookie was over $10. When I got home and I went to taste the cookie, it was hard and stale. I was only home a short time even asked my husband did you leave it open or anything because I was shocked. It was well lit in the business the gal at the front was nice and is the reason for me not giving a 2 star. The selection was very limited all in all I was just very disappointed. It was just a very bad visit. I wasn't too impressed by the inside. It would be nice if it was a place where you could go and sit down, It's almost like a pop-up. . read more

I have been coming to Icing on the cupcake for years, but not as often lately since I don't get to come to midtown as often as I used to. Although cupcakes aren't the trendy 'viral' sweet that they were about 8 years ago, I'm happy to report that these cupcakes continue to be delicious and worth a visit. I've always been impressed with the flavor and quality of their gluten free items. I tried the gf candy cane and also picked up my favorite gf brown butter coffee cake cupcake. Both were good and the brown butter continues to be my favorite. They offer gluten free and vegan options along with standard cupcakes. The person who helped me was super sweet and made the experience even better. They have flavors they offer daily as well flavors that change depending on the day of the week so check their site if there is a certain flavor you want. My top recs are the brown butter, snickerdoodle, peanut butter and jelly, and the lemon. read more

Haven't been here in a while...actually it's been since they moved from Alhambra street. Nonetheless, the ambiance is clean and customer service was basic. The cupcakes are still delicious.

Tasty cupcakes! Definitely some of the better cupcakes you can get in Midtown for sure. I have gotten a variety of flavors, and my favorite has to be their chocolate salted caramel and classic pinkdelicious. The cake is moist and tender, not crumbly or dry in any way. The frosting is not too heavy or too sweet, which is fantastic. The frosting to cake ration is also great! I appreciate this stores variety of flavors. I have also gotten some orders on Too Good To Go and those have been great too. The cupcakes are still fresh and not old tasting. Give this a try if you are looking to try this spot with not risk! Overall, a tasty option for sure! Give it a try read more

I ordered a few dozen cupcakes with them for my mom's Vampire Diaries themed bday recently (really long story) and I'm was beyond impressed with them! We got a bunch of different flavors to try and every one of them was fantastic. The woman I spoke with when I ordered was patient while I looked through the options they had (there are a ton of them) and the person that helped me when I arrived was super nice too. I threw a couple of cake toppers on top and these were 100 times better than ordering a regular birthday cake :) read more

We love it here! We come by for every birthday in our family and let our daughters pick their cupcakes. It's adorable and they actually eat them and not just the frosting! They have some great gluten free options too for those who are intolerant. But the secret here is getting the day old dozen. It's seriously so clutch. You get a dozen of the cupcakes from the day before (which still taste as fresh as they came out of the oven) and there's tons of different flavors you get. Oh, did I mention they're half off? I should keep this secret to myself, so you're welcome. See you soon for the next bday! read more

I stopped by the J Street location for a Too Good to Go pickup. Too Good to Go offers customers a surprise bag with at least 4 cupcakes of the store's choice for a reduced price (nearly 75% off). I didn't have much variety, as my box came with two Rocky Road and two Vegan Chocolate Turtle cupcakes. Both were delicious, but I prefer the non-Vegan ones since they weren't as dry. I arrived to pickup on a Friday afternoon, and I was greeted by friendly staff and a case full of fresh cupcakes. Staff asked if I had any allergies before giving me a box with nuts. I appreciated the consideration, which made their customer service stand out. The store is small; however, it's connected to Chicago Pizza. Given the shared space, you can order cupcakes from next door and have them brought over. I would love to come back for pizza and cupcakes of my choice next time! Overall, great first experience. read more

I pre-ordered 4 dozen mini cupcakes for my dad's birthday. I was a little taken aback that the minimum order for minis is 4 dozen, but okay, fine, I proceeded to order. I was told when placing my order, I get 8 complimentary minis. Which, didn't make any sense considering they have a minimum order quantity, but okay, sure, I'll take complimentary minis. So I place my order days in advance. I go to pick up my order, and no complimentary minis are included. The guy that gave me my order had no idea what I was talking about. And of the 4 different flavors I asked for, 1 was completely wrong. 25% of my order was wrong. I didn't have time to wait for the correct items so I had to take the bright pink ass cupcakes for my father's bday. No offer for a refund, or coupon for my next visit (not that I'll be back). I emailed them directly but haven't heard back from them. I really wanted to see if they'd apologize or anything. But no. Very disappointed. Will not be going back. read more

This place hands down has some of the best cupcakes in Sacramento! Their flavors are incredible, the cupcakes are always moist, and the frosting is absolutely delicious. It's a small shop with limited seating, but honestly, the quality of the cupcakes makes up for it. Pucker up is my favorite but I am not a fan of lemon filling so I prefer to get the mini ones. I can eat a dozen of the mini ones (we listen, we don't judge). That being said, the biggest downside is how quickly they run out. I went on a Saturday around 5:45 PM, expecting to get cupcakes for dessert since their posted hours says they're open until 8 PM. But when I got there, the door was locked, and a sign said they were out of cupcakes. It was clear they had been out for a while since everything was already cleaned up and packed away. I get that they're popular, but running out so early, especially on a weekend, is really frustrating. If you're planning to visit, I highly recommend calling ahead to make sure they actually have cupcakes available. It's disappointing to drive all the way there only to leave empty-handed during posted business hours. I really think management should work on improving inventory, especially on busy days like Saturdays. It's a shame to lose business this way because their cupcakes are good. I'd still recommend this spot for the quality alone, but just be prepared for the possibility that they might sell out early. read more

The manager Brenda is amazing! I had a large order and had a slight issue during my initial ordering process. Brenda was able to help me and save the day ! She is a life saver! Thanks again read more

Really liked the icing on these cupcakes. I went towards the end of the day so alot of the cupcakes were already sold out, but still there were at least 6 options left. I chose the raspberry and snickerdoodle/cinnamon cupcake. The raspberry was my favorite it had a nice raspberry filling. I have quite a sweet tooth so I found it to be the perfect amont of sweetness. I would recommend the raspberey cupcake if they have it avaliable. Service was kind. There is nowhere to sit inside the bakery, but it attached to the pizza place next door. read more

At first I didn't even see this place.. kind of easy to miss if you're not specifically searching for it. It's located in a brick building next to a place who's sign is more prominent; and makes you think that it's one business instead of two. Inside is very cute. Service was very pleasant with a quick and easy transaction. Cupcakes are pretty basic to me. Not bad, but not something I would gift to someone else. With all of the bake shops in the city, I'm not sure if I would come back. What I do like is that their frosting isn't a heaping mound on top and it isn't overall too sweet where you can't enjoy them. read more

Multiple flavors cupcakes fresh and tasty I highly recommend this place for a treat or a birthday suprise they can make it .

My fiancé and I are expecting and wanted to do a small gender reveal with our two kids yet something that still had an element of surprise. Who doesn't love cupcakes especially ones that you can choose from a huge variety from or even customize? We came in to place our order a couple of days before we needed them. I had the results of our gender on my phone but specifically asked the employee to not share with us as it was a surprise. We asked for the filling of each cupcake to be pink for girl and blue for boy. This was totally something they did often and she assured us we could get our cupcake flavors as requested with this "custom" filling. A couple of days later I get a call from Jasmine saying our order wasn't done incorrectly. Their new employee didn't quite process the request as correct as they normally would have done. Rather than saying "we're sorry we can't fulfill your order" she provided two resolutions which I greatly appreciated. Ultimately, they were able to get our order done with no further issues, additional payment, or delays! Now that's some good customer service! We ordered four cupcakes: Death by Chocolate, S'mores, Confetti, and Cookies 'n Cream. They all were absolutely finger licking good! Perfectly baked and moist. We all very much enjoyed biting into our cupcakes discovering what we were having. A GIRL!!!! I was so paranoid I double checked to see what my results said, haha. Icing on the Cupcake did great! Thank you for making this such a fun memory for our family. read more

2022 is starting off very sweet!!! If you haven't been here, please bookmark! I have never been to this little gem of a bakery but have only tasted these little decadent cakes through DoorDash, sooooo moist, soft and oh sooooo gooooood! Red velvet- Presentation is sooo simple n cute! Cream cheese frosting is decadent but not too much. I'm usually a frosting scraper cause alot of frosting these days are nothing but a dollop of straight SUGAR. But their cream cheese frosting I have no problem inhaling WHOLE, zero questions asked. I can't describe the actual taste of their cupcakes but that it is oh sooooo gooood!!! Moist, soft and you just have to have one and take a bite to know what what I'm talking about! And they do have daily gulten free, vegan options I believe. I just ordered a box for my local bank in Midtown Sac this past Friday and they were VERY pleased with taste and presentation as well! While I do live in Sacramento, on the weekends that is. All of my work week is spent working out of town, so I never get to make back home in time to actually visit this little gem! But ONE of these weekends, I will conquer this little cupcake haven!!! Stay TUNED!!! read more

Was in the neighborhood when I saw this little shop. Had to go in for some cupcakes. I bought the Pinkdelicious and vegan Hummingbird to take home. They were so good! Still moist and not too sweet. I was surprised that I liked the Hummingbird since I'm not used to tropical flavors, but so glad I bought it. I was able to taste all the flavors that were in each cupcake. I wouldn't recommend keeping them for more than 48 hours since the ones I had began to loose their moisture. However, they transported wonderfully in their individual boxes. Will need to come back when I'm there again to try additional flavors. read more

I live in SJ and needed to find a bakery that delivered cupcakes or cake in Sac for my brother's birthday. Creativity in the time of COVID, am I right? I could've gone with so many national options but I really wanted to support a local vendor. Places like Freeport don't do delivery so I found this place and I am so glad I did! They do their own delivery but it was pricey so I was able to order through Door Dash a few days in advanced and schedule delivery. It was relatively easy and I was able to choose 6 cupcakes, and tip the dasher. My brother was SO happy and he said they were so delicious he had to hold back from eating all 6 on one sitting. I picked the smores, strawberry, chocolate & red velvet. He was in love! Thank you IOTC!!! Can't wait to try them myself some day! read more

After a long work week, I was looking to surprise my coworkers with a sweet treat on Friday. And what better way to do that than by treating them to cupcakes? These cupcakes were absolutely delicious! They have such a great array of flavors, even accounting for dietary restrictions with vegan and gluten-free options. My personal favorite is their tried and true red velvet; however, I must admit that I have many more flavors to sample before a true winner comes out on top. Needless to say, I will definitely be going back to Icing on the Cupcake for my future cupcake needs! A little bit about the ordering process. There is the option to place an online order in advance; however, the pick-up date has to be at least 2 days later. If you need a same-day pick-up then you can call the business and place your order, designating your pick up time. I chose to do the later option since I wanted to pick-up on a Thursday so I could get the cupcakes to my coworkers bright and early on Friday morning (who says you can't have cupcakes for breakfast?). Overall the process was very smooth and all the staff members are super helpful! read more

This place is a lifesaver for anyone like me who occasionally needs a special bakery dessert treat. It's officially my go-to cupcake store in Sacramento! Their cupcakes are always fresh, beautifully decorated, and come in a wide variety of flavors, making it easy to find one that satisfies your craving. My absolute favorite is the vanilla confetti cupcake. It's the perfect balance of fluffy vanilla cake, creamy frosting, and sprinkles. But the best part? You can freeze these cupcakes! I froze one for three weeks, and when I finally defrosted it, it tasted like it had just been baked - fresh, moist, and bursting with flavor. If you're looking for a delightful and satisfying way to indulge your sweet tooth, definitely check it out. Plus it's a nice dessert place to stroll to after eating dinner in the area. read more
