    Burbs P.

    I recently started keto in April and my better half told me of a cupcake [my weakness] place opening up down the street on Commercial AND.. get this...they had KETO cupcakes. Needless to say I was a skeptic. Today is the 5th and I called, they were open! We headed over and thankfully they had fresh sugar free selections [they were completely sold out on the 3rd] today. So I had to ask [as all keto crazed people do] are these really keto? because sugar free does not mean carb fr... and the nice lady behind the counter stopped me and jumped right in and said "carb free! yes, we have enough fiber in them ALL to offset the carbs to 1net or 0 net each". My eyes got big.. and then she said she uses swerve in everything even the cinnamon rolls. What?! I didn't see those in the case?? she hadn't even gotten them out yet. You can see for yourself in the pictures. Here is a tip, warm up the roll you won't regret it! Delicious fun is what these were. What an enjoyable Friday afternoon in a new Salem business. You can see she put her heart and soul into this place... we'll be back. PS-I don't know if it's dog friendly inside but she had homemade doggy treats on the counter and cupcakes AND a bowl set out with fresh water for our furry babies.

    Mimi's head the absolute best cupcakes and treats. The vanilla bean gelato is from Australian cows, and it's incredible.

    We had cupcakes by Jenuine Desserts and their coffee cart at our wedding. We appreciated them…read moreaccommodating a special request to use our own mismatched mugs, and guests loved the variety of menu options! The cupcakes had a heavy frosting-to-cake ratio and the frosting was very rich, which I personally prefer, although it might not be for everyone. I had a pumpkin spice latte cupcake and it was divine. Perfect amount of spices. And a great value to boot! Thank you for making our event so special.

However, you…read moremight currently find Jen Adams' cupcakes for sale at Adam's Rib Smokehouse in Salem, Oregon. Walking inside Adam's, there was a female employee at the ordering counter. I closely examined her mannerisms, intentionally asking random questions to test her. Not a lot of smiling. A semi-disinterested look, with similar responses. I've seen worse, but I'd hardly call such demeanor acceptable for the front of the house. Adam's should be lucky I wasn't there to rate the staff. Four cupcakes were available from Jenuine Desserts on my visit to Adam's. Chocolate Peanut Butter sounded great, but seemed too heavy for me at the time. Toasted coconut sounded lovely, and the confetti cake with vanilla buttercream was basically screaming at me to pick it. So of course, I went with the last option: red velvet with a cream cheese buttercream frosting. After placing my order, the young female employee went to the back, even though four cupcakes were sitting under a glass dome at the ordering window. I couldn't gauge how long they had been under there, but I got there a bit past 11 in the morning. She brought back a red velvet cupcake in a plastic see-through container. Pink edible sprinkles caressed the top of the buttercream for a great color contrast. But alas, the container was cold. At that moment, I had negative thoughts that the cupcake was cold and not fresh, perhaps refrigerated. In other words, the actual cake would be heavy and dry. And I was correct. It pains me, because I'd think people would yearn for fluffy, room-temperature cupcakes. I can only assume I came at an unfortunate time when staff needed to make sure the older products were sold first. I'm happy that any red food coloring was kept to a minimum, because I've seen those solid red cupcakes that just make me fear a bit for my health. The cream cheese buttercream was well-prepared: smooth and not overly sweet. The buttercream appeared to go to the middle of the cupcake, doubling as a filling. I personally like filled cupcakes, so I felt that was a plus. The overall flavors were palate-pleasing. I'll award at least a small happy panda dance for such fine work. Jen should have other attractive creations available, depending on the season. I'd bet a good amount of money you'd see her at a Farmer's Market in the coming months. Such events are great ways to get your name out there without enduring ridiculously high business/startup costs. I'm unsure if cupcakes are made fresh each day. I'd consider making some for lunch and a few for dinner. Adjust the number of cupcakes made accordingly. It's probably understandable that even this is a tall task, assuming Jen has catering events and other online orders to take care of. The cupcake has promise, but the non-freshness of the product significantly destroyed the experience. I'd consider giving these cupcakes another try, and hopefully, I'll get a fresher cupcake next time.

One of the biggest issues I've noticed is the inconsistency in portion sizes. For example, cake slices are often cut noticeably different sizes from one visit to the next. When customers are paying around $8 per slice, there should be consistency so everyone receives the same value. Investing in a cake slicer or portioning guide could help solve this issue. I also recently ordered a 6-inch birthday cake for my daughter, and when I received it, it appeared to be barely 5 inches. To the owner's credit, they did reach out to me, acknowledged the issue, and provided a gift card to make things right, which I genuinely appreciated. Good customer service means a lot, and I want to recognize them for addressing my concern. Unfortunately, the replacement cake I ended up purchasing was disappointing. Nobody in my family was particularly happy with it, and the quality just wasn't what we've come to expect. Over the last year especially, it seems like the quality and freshness of the cakes have become inconsistent. Sometimes they're excellent, and other times they taste stale or simply aren't very good. Customer service can also be hit or miss. I've had some positive interactions, but there have also been times when the service felt less than welcoming. I am not writing this review to tear down a local business. In fact, I continue to support them because I know what they're capable of when they're at their best. However, consistency is important. Consistent cake sizes, consistent quality, and consistent customer service would go a long way toward improving the overall experience. I hope this feedback is taken constructively because I'd love to see the shop return to the level of quality that made me a regular customer in the first place.
