Definitely would stop there for future cupcake needs in the area.

They give you a full cup of any pudding option for $7.50 size small ($9.75 for large and $45 for a party size). I tried the vegan banana pudding and it was very good! Tasted on the sweet side which I expected, since to begin this dessert combines three sweet elements (ripe bananas, vanilla wafers and custard). You have to be in a pudding mood and when you are, theirs hits the spot every time! I ate half the same night and saved the other half in the fridge for breakfast the next morning*, it doesn't keep long so I wouldn't recommend consuming later than that if kept consistently chilled in the fridge. Aside from puddings and cupcakes, they have a selection of coffee and tea drinks, pies and cookies. They carry seasonal cupcake flavors too. Having frequented SSS often in their original location a couple blocks away, I kinda miss the coziness of that space though just glad they're around to provide that yummy, unpretentious and nostalgic dose of baked goodness the local community loves. On my recent visit the staff member on a weekend evening was friendly, served their treats with a smile, and a PSA that they were closing in 15 minutes, I appreciated the heads up! Side note: while I was there, a pistachio cupcake gazed very longingly at me, one of my favorites and I admit I gazed back, though for the sake of my waistline I had to cut off eye contact and tell myself I'd come back another time. Already thinking about when....lol. Go check them out and see which cupcake flavors speak to you! *making my own breakfast rules as an adult is the best =P

I got excited that I was back again. I'm not sure if it's new management bakers or what but this is not the Billy's I remember. Oh my they have fallen from grace Presentation is everything and the cupcakes were obviously old or they were trying to sell the misshaped cupcakes. Not attractive at all. Against my better judgement I ordered three cupcakes. They were HARD. Frosting HARD. Taste BAD. Like really bad. I want the old Billy's back please. The cupcakes are way too expensive to have such a dull presentation and poor taste. I went 1130am in the morning so maybe I got the batch from last night they were trying to sell before the fresh ones were put out. Keep that in mind.

I was happy to start speaking to the owner, who was incredibly friendly, and explained to us how she goes about making her desserts. We got the Arnold Palmer Cake in a mini size. It was a delicious sponge cake, infused with black tea, and topped with a frosting that was just sweet enough, without being overpowering. I would absolutely recommend this small business to anybody in the neighborhood, looking to fulfill a craving for something sweet!

I do love espresso and vanilla too. The best part is getting to the filling in the center. All this aside I digress from the mobile delivery option. When I wanted a gift during the pandemic it was convenient to order online. You can pick up in store also. I'm recommending this service if you have a party, especially for children. Join the rewards program and get a free cupcake for your birthday. I never earn enough points these days. 300 points is not within my reach. Since I'm don't live near a Sprinkles Store I would use this service again for gifts.

I purchased the black & white flavoring. It was beyond terrible..! The frosting wasn't too bad, but the cake was dry and didn't soothe the craving I had for a cupcake. If you want a good cupcake, I suggest heading to the Magnolia's Bakery in Bloomingdale's nearby...save yourself from this horrid place.

While placing my order online, I accidentally missed the notes section and wasn't prompted to select a delivery date. I realized it immediately and sent an email right away explaining that I needed the order delivered by July 13 for a birthday celebration. Unfortunately, I never received a response to my email. I also tried calling multiple times, but no one ever answers the New York phone number. It is now July 14, and I still have not received the cake pops or even an email confirming that the order has shipped--yet my credit card was charged immediately. I should have read the recent reviews before ordering because I now see that many other customers have experienced the same issues: poor communication, unanswered emails and phone calls, and orders not being fulfilled as expected. What's especially disappointing is that I ordered from New York Cake Pops about three years ago and had a great experience, which is why I felt comfortable ordering again. Sadly, that was not the case this time. Charging customers for an order while providing no communication and no delivery is unacceptable. This was for a special birthday celebration, and I was left scrambling at the last minute. I cannot recommend this business based on my recent experience.
