    Special order: dairy free/egg free bday cake. Unbelievably delicious!

    Papa's Cupcakes "takes the cake" when it comes to deliciousness, variety, customer service, and professionalism. We love how accommodating and easy to work with, the owners/bakers, John and Brian are. We've enjoyed everything we've ever ordered from them, and it's always fun to just stop in to grab some treats too. We just ordered a carrot cake with cream cheese icing for a birthday, and it was decadent! My favorites are the mini cupcakes, because, like the regular size cupcakes, they are filled with crazy good fillings! Another fav are the adorable cake pops, designed by Brian. This shop is run by good people, who know how to treat others with kindness, and definitely know how to create perfect, yummy baked goods! Papa's is THE best!

    Rocky Road and Lemon Drop

    Can you same, yummm?! I love that Papa's Cupcakes has a variety of different fun flavors to choose from. The Rocky Road was absolutely delicious and the Lemon Drop was scrumptious as well but very sweet with the lemon curd filling. The only reason I'm taking 1 star off was that when I initially went in to order two cupcakes, the woman was not too friendly. She wasn't busy at all, but I somehow felt like I was bothering her by being there. When you go into Papa's Cupcakes it has a florist and a little wine shop that is sooo cute and the employees were polite!

    I reached out to John in a panic requesting a wedding cake only 5 days prior to a family members wedding due to unfortunate circumstances. He was so kind and willing to do what he could for us. Not only did he communicate so promptly but he made the most beautiful and delicious cake for my family! I would recommend Papas cupcakes over and over again! U will not regret the product or experience!!

    The cupcakes are absolutely delicious and they're all filled with even more amazing fillings. They're perfect for parties and celebrations! The cake pops are so adorable and equally as amazing!

    Papa's Cupcakes are AMAZING. This little company hit it out of the park with a custom order. After a little bit of planning or a special project....They now offer GIANT Cupkakes !! Perfect for a smaller party, family celebration or get together! The giant cupcake was truly a work of art. The rosettes were perfect, and even the dragonfly decorations were well placed (and edible). Better still, the cake was moist and filled with a rich strawberry preserve... a delicious way to celebrate and cap off a wonderful Birthday. We are all overjoyed with the results! Take a look for yourself....

    Cupcake

    In searching for a take home type of dessert for my son and daughter in law's wedding dinner, I decided cupcakes would be easy, personalized and interesting. I taste tested several at a few local bakeries. The offerings at Papa's was dizzying! So many to choose from but I managed to pick 6 to try at home. WOW! So yummy and some really unique flavors! Contact with the owner was simple and very responsive to any questions or concerns that I had. They packaged each one in little boxes that I had purchased from Amazon and wrote the flavor of the cupcake on the box. When I picked up the cupcakes on the day of the dinner, they were in a single large box covered with a sheet of clear plastic. This was really thoughtful as it was pouring outside. Also contained in the box with the cupcakes was a sign that we displayed on the dessert table. It congratulated the couple and described each flavor of cupcake! Handling from start to finish, was responsive, professional, and thorough... and of course delicious! All the guests raved about the cool flavors, the beautiful presentation and how delicious all the cakes were! Highly recommend!

    I thought I'd written a review about this place before but to my shock I had not…read more I have been coming here since the day they opened, infrequently beacuse I am diabetic but when I want to spoil my body with delicious sugar, honey, this is *IT*. Now I could tell you all about how perfectly tasty everything is. From the classic banana puddings (I prefer the caramel version myself,) to the cookies, to the pineapple upside-down mini cakes. Yes, I could tell you that. But I want to speak to something deeper. I want to speak to belonging and community; and to fairness. As a biracial person with a brown sister, I feel the pull to support black and brown businesses. It's not a secret. And sometimes you do it, and sometimes you privately think "Damn. I wanna be supportive but this place is a mess." Then there's Sweet Life. NOT that. FILLED with good product at a great price, delivered by owners and staff who actually give a damn about being loving and supportive to all different types of people. And did I mention the sweets are POPPIN'? And to that statement of fairness. Today I came in to place an order, and when the price came up, for a moment I thought "Damn. That is a lot higher than I remembered, but I am not about to question them. They set the price and that price is what they deserve." So I paid. But then I noticed there was more in my bag that I'd asked for, and that there had been a miscommunication. When I tell you that this miscommunication was corrected with swiftness *AND* a smile. No shade. No drama. Just an "Ooops, oh well, here's your refund on the balance." I know this seems very basic but we all know it isn't. We have all been in that awkward situation where as a customer we have to point out an error, and the vendor turns it into a Shakespearan tragedy. Not Sweet Life. "Oops. Sorry! Fixed. Love you." So, to recap: Stunningly delicious sweets. Prices fair as hell. Communicative, inclusive staff doing the right thing. You need to take those money dollers and haul your ass over here TODAY. Now...where did I put my insulin pen?

I ate way more than this pic shows because each flavor is its own unique flavor. The No Nana banana pudding (not shown) is the truth!! If you struggle with dairy and miss banana pudding--- get it. It was my favorite delight. I got my wife the pineapple upside down cake. She loved it! Sweet, slightly gooey and perfectly portioned. The people there are great. That make you feel like you're picking a wedding ring. Giving personal recommendations and the extra sophistication you wouldn't expect at a cupcake place on south street. They have it all and i will go back for more and i highly recommend them, especially the no-nana pudding (not pictured).

I was so happy to see that she offered a variety of flavors for cakes especially Ube macapuno. We ordered a 8x5 round Ube macapuno cake with Ube buttercream filing and macapuno strings.

My gf was in charge of getting the cake which she ordered from Sweet New Creations. The Mommy To Be is a huge Harry Potter fan & I honestly wasn't sure how we would incorporate this theme into a baby shower but we did and boy oh boy was the cake out of this world! The details were amazing! The little baby cake topper was so cute, and they gave instructions on how to keep her (to dry her out) which the mom will do. The cake not only looked amazing it tasted delicious also. Often so many of the ascetically nice looking cakes don't taste so good. In this case it was a win win all around. I usually just have a bite of cake to taste it as I am not a dessert eater but I ate the entire piece. Definitely will go there for cakes in the future!

    Okay ... the time has come. I hate giving bad reviews and I won't bash them . Because I'm sure they…read morestill have some very good products it's just not worth it for me anymore to get the items that I used to like. I also am fully aware it's a small business and with inflation prices are bound to increase but I felt very ripped off. I bought 4 cupcakes - they're $3.50 each - totally fine. Thats $14. I also bought 3 macarons which the girl said were $1.25 each, also totally reasonable. So now I'm at $17.75 Tell me how I spent $41 and change when the only other things I bought were 3 decorated sugar cookies and 6 petit fours. That means I spent $23 on 3 cookies and 6 petit four. Maybe that's an okay price actually . If the cookie were 4 that'd be 12 and then I spent 11 on those cakes. Sure I guess the price isn't bad. Everything was beautiful by the way. But the cupcakes weren't filled. Again not bad for the price. And the petit fours were not the traditional layered I'm used to. Maybe I just expected more ? Again nothing per se is expensive. And the quality isn't bad either I just don't ever leave loving anything I've purchased. My petit fours also got stuck to the wrappers so I had to eat paper. I just wish I could go in here and order something and know I'll love it. I'd spend more if that were the case ! Again- not a bad review. I know my best friend loves their pastries - but it's just not a place for me anymore to get what I love. I wish them the best and many more years ahead!

The staff was great, they move quick and is very helpful...even if it's your first time there and feel overwhelmed by all the great options to choose from, the ladies are very friendly. Walked in, not a large place, but it's clean, smelled great and they have plenty of yummy options that your eyes pick up immediately... you know this place has everything you need from a bakery. They are multiple display cases, fully stocked with a variety of cakes, cookies, donuts, specialty pastries, and more. They have a couple of cake displays, for the full-size, mini-size, and the slices as well. They also do specialty cakes and special order catering too. Their Deli has plenty of side dishes to choose from...especially great if you are going somewhere and you don't want to make anything...let the folks at Giancarlos save the day. To my surprise, they also make pizza pies and to include sell by the slice too !! Ordered two breakfast sandwiches (1x HEC & 1x BEC), both were filling and delicious.
