Decided to give this a try when my grandson was impressed with the name. We were not disappointed. Customer service was excellent. I had the peanut butter cup. It was flavorful, fluffy and just the right amount of sweet and salty. I would definitely recommend. read more

Clean and delicious smelling store upon entry. Man working the day we visited was very nice and welcoming. We ordered 4 regular size cupcakes and their sampler box. It would've been nice if there was a handout or note that says what the flavors were inside the sample box. Once at home, we were just guessing or didn't know at all after sampling. Most of the icings are way too sweet for any of our liking. Some of the actual cakes did taste pretty good. Not impressive, but good enough. Surprisingly liked their chocolate flavors the most. Would could considet coming back here to try other flavors and maybe their drinks and ice cream. read more

The cupcakes used to be good. Now, it's like they aren't even trying. The cake itself is dry (we tried multiple different varieties), relatively flavorless, and the frosting is soooo sweet. Like all you taste is sugar. The man behind the counter was less than friendly to boot. (Maybe he don't like the anti-Trump sign visible on my windshield?) We won't come here again. read more

The staff is friendly and the cupcakes are phenomenal! We got a variety of cup cakes for a party. The range of flavors was perfect, and everyone loved them. They also have pup cakes, either a cake or mini cup cakes that are perfect for celebrating a dog's birthday. We will definitely be back. read more

The cupcakes here are just open and not in a case. I was about to purchase a 12 pack of minis and the cashier said be careful, any little bump will knock them out of their spot. Ok, maybe invest in different packaging? Not only was i not confident in gifting these, they looked old and haphazardly decorated. The bakery was really big inside but they should invest in a closed case and better packaging for the minis. I ended up leaving without buying anything and went to Cake Fetish instead read more

Staff is amazing! I called day before and they were able to give me options on customizing cupcakes. I was able to get a dozen with filling for a great price! The cupcakes were a success and so adorable for my daughter's 16th birthday! The bakery was super cute inside. Next time, I'll bring my little family and try to have a snack there read more

They are very responsive to customer inquiries. The website was simple to view menu options and with the help of Grubhub a special delivery was made. Alberto took good care of me and made sure a special message accompanied the cute lil cakes. The box was sealed for freshness and a variety of flavors for all the tastebuds inside.

We have been in Smallcakes a couple of times and Alberto is always so consistently nice and friendly.

So happy I found this place. Cupcakes are beautiful, fresh/moist and delicious. Purchased 14 for a 70th birthday party. Everyone loved them. Cupcakes are always a better option than cake because you can have several flavors. They also have a couple of mini cake options, if you want cake. This is now our go to place for desserts. Also, they have a nice box for transporting your cupcakes. No problem with the cupcakes moving in the box and getting mashed up. You could put a bow on their box for a present! read more

Even though the bakery was busy, it didn't feel chaotic or dirty. Staff managed the flow well and kept the space tidy. I ordered a chocolate tart and it came in a clean, well-folded box. The tart itself was rich, with a crisp base and velvety chocolate filling. They also wiped the countertop after every few customers. Cleanliness here clearly matters. read more

In addition to my usual cupcake purchase of carrot cake, salted caramel, strawberry vanilla, and peanut butter chocolate, I was intrigued by the name Sinful Caramel! Oh, it is sinfully delicious! The caramel icing is whipped into fluffy perfection, with a delicate sprinkle of salt. The cake in loaded with vanilla and is moist and well, just everything you'd want a cupcake to be. Glad I tried it! The counter was filled with fresh baked selections and larger cakes in a corner fridge. There was a line, but the staff is speedy. Such a nice little place in NE ABQ to enjoy a sweet treat. On their website they feature beautiful custom cakes in a variety of sizes for all occasions. read more

Such a cute place to get a sweet treat from! I came here after seeing it on the local news. It was a little out of my normal area in Albuquerque, but definitely worth the drive. The cashier was helpful. She helped me chose the two cupcakes that I eventually ended up buying. The cupcakes themselves are SO good! They taste just as good as they look. My only critique is that there was a little bit too much frosting, but of course that's a personal preference of mine and one that was easily overcome by scraping a bit of the frosting off. read more

Love their birthday cake cupcakes. Best in town! Light and not so sweet but best sweet treat after a long week.

we looked up a cupcake place on the way to see the balloon fiesta on Friday night. this one popped up. we are from Texas and this place was amazing. Alberto waited on us and was so pleasant and we just couldn't resist. we got 6. (2 a piece) and 3 of his cookies. I recommend the wedding cake. my friend said the hot fudge one and her daughter got the red velvet with special buttercream instead of cream cheese. Wish we lived here because this would be our go to spot for desserts. and thank you Alberto for the great service and the great sweets read more

I been this locations several times and the last time I went in I was hardly greeted and the employee behind the counter had a flat affect and didn't made me feel welcomed. Despite receiving cold treatment from the counter employee I decided to still order my cupcakes. I ordered a set of 4 cupcakes which was around 18 bucks. These cupcakes are incredibly delicious . They have a soft and moist texture in the inside and creamy butter cream icing on top of it. It's a beautiful piece of art that this place produces. You can order online as well. If I would have know that they had a mini assorted dozen I would have gone with that option for 20 bucks. read more

Ordered a custom order- half dozen of the Bee's Knees (honey pecan cake, brown sugar honey buttercream, chopped pecans, honey drizzle and a bee made of sugar garnish) about 3 weeks ahead of my mom's birthday. It was $24 for the six pack. It was near impossible to get ahold of them by phone, email, or Facebook, so I ended up having to go into the shop to order (and was worried that somehow my order would disappear by the time pickup day came around). But, it was worth it. The oversized cupcakes were moist and sweet, plenty of icing (but not too overpowering). read more

I don't know if this establishment has hired a new cake decorator within the last year, but the quality has gone extremely downhill. For context, I purchased a cake last year and it came out absolutely gorgeous. When my birthday came around again this year, I placed my order once again for a custom cake. I ordered it about three weeks in advance, and it's a rather small cake (feeds 4-8 people). It was supposed to be a white cake, with red piping and decorations. What I received was a white cake with icing holes (don't know how else to describe it honestly), nearly no red piping, and the cake itself isn't even level. While at the bakery, I asked the staff to please add more piping, as I was essentially staring at a white cake. Once the cake was returned to me, I was met with extremely uneven red piping around the cake. I'd paid in advance and my birthday was the next day, so I really had no option but to accept what was given to me. I have no idea why the cake itself is so tall and skinny (or lopsided), or why the staff stated they could add more piping only to hand me the most uneven piping I've ever seen. I wouldn't suggest ordering a custom cake from here going forward. read more

The lemon cupcake was absolutely delicious. Perfect amount of lemon flavor. The other cupcakes we bought were just okay. The cake part of the cupcakes were good. Moist and delicious but the frosting was not so good. the sundae cupcake was terrible. Whatever the whipped cream that is used is so incredibly processed and was very firm and just tasted like straight up oil. We used to get these cupcakes in a different city but it's a shame that the consistency is not there. read more

Nothing else to say but "YUM!" Well, maybe I'll also say it's become my favorite spot to get cakes for any celebration. I'm a major chocoholic and all the chocolate cakes make my tastebuds smile.

I didn't know what to expect when my boyfriend brought this box home, which contained six cupcakes. I have had just a small selection of cupcakes from different cupcake shops. The one that takes the cake is called Sift, A Cupcakery and is located in Santa Rosa, CA. Unfortunately, each shop must compete against Sift, which was a winner on Food Network's Cupcake Wars. Ever since I had Sift's cupcakes, I have continued to see imitations sold at other cupcake stores. Small cakes appears to offer a variety of cupcakes. I tried the lemon cupcake and the Reese's peanut butter cupcake. Both were very fresh and perfectly moist. I am a fan of dark chocolate and creamy frosting. The Reese's cupcake had your run-of-the mill chocolate cake, and a creamy buttercream frosting. The thing that tasted most like Reese's was actually the Reese's candy that was crumbled on top of the cake. It was decent, but I have had more flavorful Reese's cupcakes. I preferred the lemon cupcake. It had lemon buttercream frosting. The two flavors married together make one delicious frosting. Vanilla cake compliments it and gives the pallet a rest... just in time for the lemon filling to blast the flavor in your mouth. Overall, I could tell there was a lot that went into the presentation of the cupcakes, and they were very professional. However, it may be worth it to tweak the flavors and make them a little stronger. However, I understand that some people (my boyfriend) do not appreciate strong flavors. read more

Alberto was very personable and made for a pleasant experience! The cupcake Wedding Cake and Chocoholic were moist, full of flavor, and delicious! Can't wait for our next visit! Alberto deserves a monetary award so that his peers will strive to his level. Thank you again Alberto. read more

I've used Small Cakes multiple times for my daughter's birthday but this year was really disappointing. I custom ordered banana cupcakes. Considering the price, they weren't worth it. It was just vanilla cake with very fake tasting banana frosting. I asked for banana cake not vanilla cake. Anyone can make vanilla cupcakes. Very basic. And they frosted them too soon considering they were still warm when they arrived home which made the frosting melt and go sideways on all of the cupcakes. I saw the disappointment in my daughter's eyes when I put them on display and I felt terrible. I'll be exploring the cupcake competition for my next order. read more

These cupcakes and cakes are to die for! They have creative recipes and the cakes are made with care and professionalism. A little pricey, but hey, we all deserve a good treat now and then!! They are also really good and impressive for someone's birthday at work, or a teacher, colleague. I recommend this place!!! It's also easy to get to. read more

I went here for a last minute Valentine gift, and although the cakes were incredible and the sugar cookie I had was out of this world, it was the customer service that really won me over.

I definitely recommend this place and I will be back! read more

My daughter and I drove all over Albuquerque looking for an artistic, delicious birthday cake for the celebration of her turning 12, and we found a beautiful strawberry and cream cake covered in sparkling fairy dust pink roses that looked more like a work of art than something to eat, but the girls devoured it, as it was equally delicious. No special order necessary, the ladies were super kind and generous and even gave my daughter a complimentary Happy Birthday topper. Absolutely recommend this place! read more

I'm from Missouri and wanted a German Chocolate cake for Christmas in Albuquerque. Smallcakes looked good. I called and talked with Karina. She helped me decide on size. She made me feel like I was her only concern and she took the time to listen. The cake was not only more than I expected, it was a beautiful and very tasty addition to our Christmas holiday. I will order from them again on my next visit. Thanks for such a great experience in display, taste and service. read more
