loved the cupcakes we picked out! I got the vanilla confetti cupcake & a smore's bar for the road. I wish the cupcakes had filling! Service was helpful and nice, recommended choices; and the shop itself was cute and welcoming! I would have gotten a cake, but I was just visiting for the weekend! read more

We got a couple of items. Two Iced Chai Lattes, a vanilla cupcake and the strawberry shortcake slice. The lattes and slice were extremely sweet I have a sweet toothe so didn't mind but if you are not into sweets it may be too much. The cupcake was a good balance as the cake was semi sweet and the frosting brought the flavor read more

As it relates to the red velvet cake, it was basic at best. The icing was uneventful. I don't see any reason to return. And expensive. To contrast; try "Cakeman Raven" in Harlem. You'll see why my standards are where they are. read more

Great vegan options here for a bakery (and also a bunch of gluten free options, in addition to both vegan and gluten free). The vegan and gluten free chocolate cupcake was excellent. read more

A friend at work treated me to a tasty slice of heaven, from Little Cupcake Bakeshop. It was my first time having any of their sweet treats. She bought me a slice of three layer cake called Coconut Cloud. It was really fluffy and moist. The vanilla frosting and coconut filling had just the right amount of sweetness. My cake slice, served in a cute pink box was large enough to split into two portions. I just polished off the other half of my slice with a cup of tea. I've passed Little Cupcake Bakeshop several times and never had the chance to stop inside. I'm gonna make time now. There's a banana, Nutella cake that she showed me from her phone while she was there. It looked really good. Trying that kind next! read more

Such a cute little spot to stop in! It was packed when we visited with all tables taken and a short line. They had a TON of options with cupcakes, slices, and more. They even had a few vegan options which was wonderful. We ordered a cake slice and a couple cupcakes. The slice was large, and it was gone before I can take a photo! Pricey, but delicious! read more

Came here for the first time to see what the hype was about. We had the strawberry shortcake and the blackout cake. They did say this is where you get the best blackout cake and it did not disappoint it was very good. The strawberry shortcake on the other hand was not impressive. I found the slice to be dry not moist. The service was good very friendly. The ambiance very cute paris bakery chic decor. read more

I've been a fan of this place since going to their 1st location in Bayridge. I lived down the street and would often go there for a slice of angel food cake, a cup cake or lemon bar. They no longer have the angel food cake but the Brooklyn Blackout Cake is incredible. For my birthday this year I had the Strawberry Shortcake Cake. Friends loved it. Always found the service to be good at any location and the place itself is a cute and cozy place to chill and enjoy a good dessert. read more

I'm so sad.. ordered two pumpkin pies , both bottoms were under cooked, chewy and dang near raw.. we were advised to put in the oven, one was salvaged.. did the same to the second pie and there was soup of liquid... completely ruined our thanksgiving.. we were unable to serve dessert.. I'm heart broken over this.. I'd been ordering from here for a while and never once had to put these in the oven to finish off or fix... whoever baked these (or didn't) this is not great at all. A compete waste ! #heartbrokenandupset read more

The cupcakes are incredibly dry which sucks because the flavor is there especially the Italian cookie cupcakes. I've had it on multiple occasions and they're dry everytime so I probably won't come here again. read more

I think this place is overhyped. I went specifically to try their Brooklyn Blackout chocolate cake since I'd heard it was the best in NYC, but it was a huge letdown. The cake itself barely had any chocolate flavor--if I closed my eyes, I wouldn't have even known it was chocolate. On top of that, it was dry. The buttercream on the outside was just pure sugar, way too sweet, and the filling inside, while not bad, was barely there. To make it worse, one slice was almost $10, which is outrageous for what I got. Honestly, I've had a Starbucks brownie with a richer chocolate taste than this. Definitely not worth the 12-minute walk it took to get there. read more

I come here soley for the Brooklyn blackout cake or cupcake - it's worth the hype if you love chocolate cake!

With all due respect, A waste of my hard-earned $9.88 LOL! The snobbiest faces behind the counter. The driest cakes known to mankind The smell of the cake is quite peculiar (maybe all the preservatives used) It's always good to know where NOT to spend my money on Vanderbilt. This place is top 2 ..... but not 2. read more

I ordered 6 cupcakes this afternoon to serve to guests. They were a concession to one of the guests who might not enjoy the plum torte I baked. I paid $40 to have them delivered. The delivery did not go well. As you can see they used the wrong size box. Putting crumpled paper between the rows might have kept them upright during the bike ride over here. When I called to complain the guy said, "once they leave the shop we are no longer responsible for them. You'll have to take it up with DoorDash." Then the jerk told me to have a nice day. I'd rather take it up with the public. The cupcakes might taste good but if you have them delivered they could look like hell. Pick them up. What a jerk. read more

Almost finished the whole thing and Bit into a literal hair. F**ing disgusting.

Ten dollar cheesecake with a hair in it that makes me nauseous ten minutes later is unacceptable. read more

Oh no??!! That's exactly what I said when the server cut the tiniest piece of cake and placed it in the box. Yes the cake is delicious, but why are the slices so small? They use the cake cutter to measure the the cake slice and it's so shameful what you're offered for $10. Please get it together....ENOUGH IS ENOUGH WITH THE FOOLISHNESS!! read more

I was craving a slice of chocolate cake for the longest time and on my way to the post office, I decided to give into temptation. It wasn't that hard considering the sweetest cloud of sugar wafted towards my direction the moment I entered the shop. My plans to get only a cupcake dissolved quickly as I started to drool over their selection of cakes. The staff was really nice and one of them took the time to show me through all their cakes and I ended up getting a slice of their award-winning Brooklyn Blackout ($8.25) and their Coconut Cloud ($8.25). The Brooklyn Blackout was delicious and rich and decadent without being too sweet, which was a feat because my biggest complaint with a lot of traditional American cakes is that they are too sweet for my preference. They use Dutch-process cocoa and the cakes are sandwiched between layers of ganache and covered in a chocolate buttercream. It hit all the spots and managed to stay moist over the course of the three days I spent eating this. Their Coconut Cloud ($8.25) uses their golden vanilla cake base with a coconut filling that was like silky pudding and a light and airy meringue icing. I thought it was a fantastic cake and although it was a little too sweet for my tastes due to the meringue icing, I really liked how soft and fluffy the cake was. read more

I come here all the time. I have literally gotten in an Uber several times to get here from where I live in Brooklyn (usually after dinner. I have a serious sweet tooth) just to get the Vanilla bean cupcake. I'm obsessed. I have to stop myself from coming here multiple times a week. I've had the Banana Pudding (very good), brownie (good but nothing special really) and the banana chocolate chip cupcake (delicious). Someday I'd like to try more of their offerings (that is if I can ever pull myself away from ordering the Vanilla bean cupcakes). Cute shop with a limited amount of tables. Service is attentive and pleasant. I recommend. read more

The rudeness of the staff is unmatched to follow there policies. It's unreal if you buy a pastry they won't give you a box they won't even let you buy one. They don't give a crap about customers. Things have changed so much. So sad to have managers in place with no power. Not to mention dry cake. Goodbye cupcakes bake shop. read more

I've had other cakes from LCB in the past which were fine, but I had a very poor experience at this particular location. I came in around 10 PM to get a slice with my friend, and got the Tiramisu slice which was advertised as having a cream cheese frosting. You'd think it'd be tangy and fluffy especially to imitate the mascarpone whipped topping tiramisu has, but the frosting was THICK and so so aggressively sweet, I thought it was buttercream. The coffee soak also didn't permeate the layers of the cake well, so it was incredibly dry and crumbly without any frosting. I asked the people working if it was cream cheese, and they said that it was. I said it didn't taste like it (or even remotely balanced or good) and I got the slice solely for that since I don't care for buttercream. They then tasted the cake on their own and said that it indeed was cream cheese frosting and that "different bakers have different recipes/ratios for the cakes" so it was sweeter than usual. Wtf? Talk about quality control... I just stood there awkwardly, but no one offered any solution or offered a replacement slice, which I thought was very odd. I would have asked myself but they all seemed very over it & like they didn't care so nothing would have happened anyways. It was especially disappointing considering their slices are like $8-9. That's NOT cheap. I ended up giving a slab of the "cream cheese" icing to my friend since her strawberry shortcake slice had virtually no icing and was dry, and I threw the rest of my slice in the trash. I'd recommend Brooklyn Cupcake or Sweets For The Sweeties 10000x over Little Cupcake Bakeshop if you're looking for a cupcake spot in BK to support. Their stuff is SO good and is never dry and customer service is on point. I definitely won't be back, and this has definitely soured my perspective of the Little Cupcake Bakeshop brand overall. read more

Love something sweet! A slice of cake or a cupcake is my preference over ice cream any day. This Bakeshop, made famous by Sex in the City holds its own without the hype. The cakes are moist and rich in flavor; the icing delicious without being super sugary. There are always a lot of cakes to choose from and flavors of cupcakes. Love the vanilla with salted caramel icing, such a treat! There is typically a line and most of the cafe tables inside occupied as they are located in a very lively intersection with Madewell next door and a fab pizza shop across the street. Always stop in when I'm in the City! read more

Decided to come here for a quick dessert after seeing how cute the outside of the bakeshop looked. It was so difficult ordering anything because there were so many different good options that I wanted to try! My friend and I settled on the blueberry cheesecake and the smores bar. They were both so delicious. The smores was gooey on the inside and nice and had crisp on the outside. Wish I could have bought more and taken more home with me! The environment was really cute as well and I could see myself coming here often:) read more

Possibly the best slice of confetti birthday cake I've ever had. A slice of a 3 layered cake so, it was huge. Before settling in on cake decisions, the staff gave the run down on the available pastries. A little surprised birthday cake was an option. (Shout out to the birthday cake connoisseurs. Rare and few but strong). Most cake shops offer a range of chocolate or strawberry sweets but I'm a fan of neither. Smooth check out. The place also felt very festive. Definitely on my rotating list. read more

Amazing Latte with mocha! I only wish they had fresh whip cream to put on the iced latte.

Cupcakes are just mid. Nothing special and service not so great. Felt rushed into making a decisions even though they were not busy. For the price I would have expected better. Key lime pie was definitely better than the cupcakes. I would definitely use my sugar intake more wisely and try somewhere different. read more
