Amazing friendly service and the ambiance of the truck is friendly and draws you in. The dough which I ordered was chocolate chip dough with vanilla ice cream and peanut butter sauce. My only complaint is the vessel in which I was given my dough which. It was a flimsy paper when it needed to be a stronger cardboard bowl. Loved the variety of options including doggie cookie treats. read more

If it's sweet that you want, then this food truck is for you! Tried a pair of Doughwichs. These are disks of frozen chocolate chip cookie dough, filled with a scoop of - - - cookie dough! The PB Fluff is peanut butter cookie cough swirled with marshmallow fluff. The Brownie Batter is a scoop of frozen brownie batter. Definitely a unique dessert. Uber sweet, so much so that I couldn't eat more than 1/4 before it was too much. That's OK, the rest saved for the next day. Next time, I'll go for ice cream between the cookie dough instead. read more

The cookie dough here is such a nice treat for a special occasion, pick me up, or just trying to fill a sweet tooth. They have a plethora of flavors, all of which will definitely satiate any sweet craving. One scoop is also a hefty scoop, which personally lasted me quite awhile (also perfect for kids). Definitely give this place a visit next time you have a sweet craving! read more

It has been a while since I visited Not Just Icing but on Food Truck Tuesday I decided to pick up a cupcake! This time I went with an Oreo Love cupcake which is a chocolate cake with an oreo buttercream icing topped with a mini oreo! The frosting was BOMB, I wish the cake was a bit more moist but it still tasted great! And, for $3 it is a great deal. FYI, get a rewards card, buy 12 cupcakes and get 1 free. read more

Wow are you sure you shouldn't be called " not much of anything"? For $3.50 a cupcake I would hope to have at least larger ones than ones my teenage girls make at home for under $5 for a half dozen with all the fancy extras. They should be ashamed" was my husbands exact words. I can't say I disagree. Hope they taste amazing but even so high way robbery for that kind of money. $22. ‍ read more

I've been coming to them for cupcakes since 2016. They are SO DELICIOUS. The cake is moist, the icing is true buttercream, & the service is great. I live 3 hrs away now & I came here today (4/21/18) just for them. I was craving them & I'm glad they were at an event so I could get some. Try them! You won't be disappointed. read more

Just how I like my cupcakes - decadent and sweet, but not overwhelming to the point that I want to scrape all the icing off. I tried the Strawberry Delight (vanilla cake with strawberry buttercream) and loved the fresh and light flavors. I actually thought the cake could've just been a taddd bit more moist, but I didn't really mind it with all the delicious buttercream and the fresh strawberry on top. Definitely buying more next time to share with friends! read more

Geez! That was an amazing strawberry cup cake! I'll be back and will leave it at that. Until next time, keep it coming! read more

Not Just Icing - Amazing - Food Trucks Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

When it comes to customer service, good products, and accountability, Not Just Icing is top notch! Donna and her girls work SO hard to produce the freshest, sweetest, tastiest cupcakes in all the land... they even have 2 ovens on the truck baking cupcakes- ensuring yours is the freshest and best product! The truck is located all over RDU and available for private events too. I recently hosted a company event with 3 savory trucks + 1 sweet truck, and I was lucky enough to have Not Just Icing. Donna was always so quick to respond to emails and even offered many suggestions for other savory trucks. She customized her menu to meet our Oktoberfest theme, and our employees were SO happy with this corporate event. The cupcakes were very reasonably priced (especially considering how fresh they were). My favorites were the chocolate with pumpkin icing and the chocolate cupcake with strawberry icing- it was even topped with a slice of strawberry! She offered singles ($3), 4-packs ($11), and 6-packs ($17) at our event, which was perfect for people to take some home with them. I heard nothing but positive reviews about Not Just Icing- our employees were just so happy with her customer service and products! All in all, I highly recommend Not Just Icing for your next company picnic or corporate event... if you see her truck out at a food truck rodeo or event in the Triangle, be sure to snag some of these cupcakes for yourself- I promise you won't be disappointed!! read more

Look what came to work today. I needed a sweet treat. With a cupcake and ice cream combo this is delicious. They also have cookie dough and ice cream combo or just try the cupcakes or cookie dough. Look for them at the next Food Truck Rodeo. read more

Who doesn't like cupcakes, right? Not Just Icing has good cupcakes. Their strawberry icing is amazing. That said, their cupcakes aren't the star of the show on their truck. The scoops of cookie dough are! The sugar cookie with sprinkles cookie dough has seriously made a blah day 100% better. You can get it in a cone or in a cup. It's eggless dough so you don't have to worry about sickness. read more

We tried this food truck at the Durham Food Truck Rodeo and thought it was a really cool idea. Didn't get to try any of the cupcakes but the flavors looked very creative. We got a brownie batter and biscoff cookie butter dough and agreed that the brownie batter was quite a bit better than the cookie dough, which wasn't as cookie buttery as I would have liked. Still very yummy though, and very rich. read more

Not Just Icing is a new food truck (well "new" in the sense that I haven't seen it before or found any online reviews) that I discovered at the June Raleigh Food Truck Rodeo. As an initial disclaimer: I love cupcakes, and I love food trucks. So any food truck serving cupcakes is bound to get a pretty positive review from me. I was impressed by how many varieties of cupcakes that Not Just Icing had. There were at least 10, maybe 12 available on sale from the truck for the standard price of $3/cake. I asked which was the favorite of the woman working the counter and got a lemon cupcake with raspberry icing (probably what I would have chosen myself on a hot NC afternoon). It was good - the raspberry icing really stood out. It was VERY flavorful--not just generic fruity/sugary flavor, but in the sense that it actually tasted like raspberries. The lemon cake was good--not the best I've had but enjoyable. The cupcake was a little small. I generally don't complain about $3 cupcakes, but I like to feel satisfied after eating it, even if a friend takes a bite or two. With this, a bite or two turned into 1/3 of the whole cupcake! Overall, looking forward to seeing Not Just Icing around again and trying another cupcake variety. read more

These are seriously the best cupcakes around. Over the last year or so I have tried nearly every variety of cupcake offered by this food truck and each one has been delicious. The cupcakes are made with fresh ingredients and are always moist and flavorful. I think the ratio of icing to cake is perfect...not too much icing like some of the gourmet cupcakes offered around here. This doesn't affect me but I think it's cool that there are cupcakes offered that comply with certain dietary restrictions as well. read more

This was a special treat at work Wednesday. So glad I managed to sneak outside for a cupcake! I had the blueberry delight: vanilla cupcake with blueberry butter cream. Good flavor to the cupcake and just the right amount of buttercream. It was sweet without tipping over into the sickly sweet category. I would definitely recommend giving her a try! read more

A wonderful variety with a refreshing menu dedicated to fruit flavors. But these cupcakes left me wanting more... in an I'm-not-satisfied (rather than a gimme-gimme more) kind of way. Perhaps the biggest fault is their size; definitely on the small side, yet priced at $3 a pop. There is a price break if you order a four-pack, and again if you order a dozen. But even with the four-pack discount, they're more expensive than competitors that offer substantially more cake. I ordered the Irish Car Bomb, cookie dough on chocolate, blueberry, and cinnamon swirl. The only true disappointment was the Irish Car Bomb which, for me, did not suggest Baileys in the cake nor Jameson in the icing. It just tasted like dry chocolate cake with a smooth vanilla buttercream. The cookie dough mixture atop the chocolate cake is exactly like cookie dough batter (in other words, delicious!), and added interest to a cupcake that was otherwise identical to the Car Bomb (chocolate cake bottom, vanilla buttercream top). The blueberry was a highlight in that fresh fruit was abundantly detectable in both cake and frosting... not too sweet, this cupcake is like a dressed-up decadent version of a muffin. The cinnamon swirl was my fave of the bunch -- think: cinnamon bun but better. The rich icing smacks of butter, and granular streaks of cinnamon sugar branch through the cake like a tasty central nervous system. The strength of the cakes is the smooth, light frosting -- not gritty, and not sculpturally hard. read more

I was thrilled when Not Just Icing was available to make cupcakes for a co-workers birthday party. Unlike other local companies who insist on making one flavor for all of the cupcakes, NJI gave us a wonderful mix of cupcake flavors and icing on our order of two dozen. The cookie dough cupcakes were gone instantly, followed shortly by the raspberry frosted. They even devoured all the Gluten Free cupcakes, which are usually left over for a day or two. Thanks for your delicious cupcakes and excellent service. read more

First of all, amazing cupcakes. The strawberry and cinnamon are to die for. We had them cater our wedding, and they were professional, responsive, and SUPER kind (which cannot be said about all wedding vendors). Had a great experience with Donna Downs, and would absolutely recommend them to cater any event, or just follow their truck to get a delicious cupcake! read more

Excellent cupcakes and better than most I've been able to find in Durham so far. I went to the food truck rodeo today and tried their oreo cupcake. The chocolate cake part was incredibly moist, rich, and dark chocolate-y, and you really could taste the difference between the freshness of this cupcake and others I've had. The buttercream frosting was not too sweet, had a good oreo flavor, and was light and creamy. read more

This cupcake just has all the real flavors that one should have!! Before tasting I viewed other review and the strawberry cupcake was amazing! I felt like I was cheating on my diet, but this cupcake tasted so real! I wished there had been more strawberries on top, at least three, but overall AMAZING, DELICIOUS, FRESH! I can't wait for the winter to come and see you try some pumpkin cupcakes! BTW these cupcakes ain't got nothing on Gigi's Cupcakes! read more

Delicious ice cream! Very light! The cookie dough was good but not great. I loved the strawberry on top of the sundae m. I would definitely purchase again. I didn't give 5 stars because I don't think the amount was worth $7. read more

Wow!! What a treat having Not Just Icing at our neighborhood party! They were professional, excellent in communication and went above and beyond to make our party a success!! The cupcakes were delicious, fresh and will knock your socks off! I loved the flavor assortments that were offered - she even had gluten free for those that generally miss out on cupcakes! The neighborhood is still taking about them! We LOVED having them!! Thanks Donna for everything!! We highly recommend Not Just Icing and if you are ever looking for a sweet food truck or at a rodeo where they are, you must try them! read more

Maybe I should have tried the cupcake instead.. since there are good comments about them below. but I had the dough-wich... which is two cookie dough with vanilla ice cream in the middle. As a lover of cookie dough ice cream... I wasn't too fan of it. Just felt like too much cookie dough versus ice cream.. I guess if you love cookie dough, it's heaven. read more

Cupcakes are delish! Yummo!! So fresh and tasty. Cookie dough was great. The truck is cute and I love the name.

We ordered six dozen cupcakes in a variety of flavors for a work event - They were a hit! Very rich cake and the icing was wonderfully thick and creamy. Donna was great to work with and made the ordering/payment/pick-up so simple! Thank you! read more

Saw this food truck at the Raleigh food truck rodeo this past weekend and bought 4 GF Cupcakes from them with different icing flavors and they were awesome.

SO good!! I am pretty obsessed with cupcakes so I gotta try every new place I find. Usually I'm disappointed, but these were amazing! The dough is uniquely scrumptious and it balances deliciously with their equally awesome buttercream frosting. They came to my work a few weeks ago and I've been craving them ever since! I live in Durham but they are my new favorite here in the triangle and worth the commute outside of work! read more

So I've been lucky enough to eat cupcakes from this truck at least 4 times in the last year. Not Just Icing comes to my workplace frequently, and I have a hard time resisting. I always buy a half dozen to bring home to my family, and we all agree that these are the best cupcakes we have tried in the Raleigh area. Always moist, wide selection of flavors, basic and fancy, with the perfect ratio of icing and cake. These bad boys don't fall over because they have a ridiculous amount of icing on top. So so good. And the customer service is excellent. The owner is always so sunny--but then I would be too if I had perfected the art of the cupcake. Try the Chocolate Coconut--it's what Mounds wishes it tasted like. read more

They came to my job today. I bought 2 chocolate chip cookie doughs. I wish I had tried them immediately. Then I could've got my money back. My daughter and I both agree the cookie dough tastes like Play-Doh. I just threw it away. Very disappointed. read more

I just bought a Banana Delight cupcake. It looked so good and I went in to sniff it and I accidentally dropped it to my horror!! I was so bumbed out! Luckily the nice lady offered me a new one free of charge since it happend right in front of the Cupcake Rv. I was so grateful!! It was delicious!! Light and not too sweet! You could really taste the banana in it. We hope to come back and try more flavors. read more

I can't say enough about these ladies and Joy :-) .... I love the cupcakes, they are a perfect size and best I have ever had. I wait for them to come out to my work for lunch on Wednesdays and go see them at the Food Truck Rodeo in Raleigh as well. They are definitely worth $3, though that is a lot for a cupcake. read more
