I was excited to see they offered an almond cupcake ( the wedding cupcake) and it was terrible. The cake was very dry and the frosting too sweet. I was so disappointed. The young lady who took my order was very friendly. read more

Delicious cupcakes! Love, the fact that they always have gluten-free available. Service was great and the store is so cute. Would be a fun place to take your kid to decorate cupcakes. read more

Ugh, stop it!!! They have a cupcake flight now. There was a display out that said you needed to preorder but they had an extra one on hand and of course I had to have it! 12 delightful little 2 bite cupcakes... yes please! This has been my favorite cupcake place since we moved to the springs. I brought a box to meet friends at a brewery a few weeks ago and they were a huge hit with my friends and everyone that walked by! Not only eye catchingly (making that a word) gorgeous, they're melt in your mouth sweet and delicious! They always have a great selection available and even little pupcakes that my dogs love. Tons of parking always available and the staff is so inviting and energetic! Highly recommend if you have a sweet tooth read more

After deciding we needed dessert one weekend afternoon, I began looking for locations who had cupcakes, close to us. After finding Smallcakes & looking at their Signature Flavors list, we set out!! It's in a very easy to get to location, right off N. Academy. There were a few tables occupied & a gentleman ordering at the counter. Very cute place & it smelled very good. I looked at the cupcakes on display & was very excited to try them. After ordering, the lady boxed the cupcakes in a beautiful, pink box, & told me to have a nice day. I decided to dig into my cupcake very soon after arriving home. It was beautiful & I needed to know how it tasted. I cut it into quarters & dove in!! The frosting texture was definitely creamy & fairly dense, which I liked. The sweetness off the frosting was the next aspect that pulled forefront quickly. It was super sweet. The chocolate cake was quite moist, which was great, but I felt as though the chocolate flavor was lacking. What I couldn't decide, was if it was simply the sweetness of the frosting drowning out the flavor of the cake. I took the other 3/4 & placed it back in the box for later. Once my husband cut into his, I tried that one & the frosting wasn't quite as sweet. The yellow cake again was moist, but no real flavor to speak of that stood out. In conclusion, they were not bad, they were a moist cupcake that was beautiful & had a nice amount of frosting. For me, I felt that a cupcake for $4.95 should have offered a little more. I would definitely be willing to pop in & try another flavor. Will definitely update if I do!! read more

The cupcakes were fresh and delicious. The service was outstanding - person working the counter was so friendly and helpful with my order for a party. Will definitely be returning. read more

I placed a delivery order and it was delivered super fast. Cupcakes were packaged nicely in a sweet, sturdy box. Cupcakes aren't cheap, about $4.25 a piece, but they are pretty big and super tasty. I definitely enjoyed the choices we made, and would highly recommend the salt caramel cupcake. It was sweet but not overpowering and it was super moist. I'm not a fan of chocolate cake but theirs is pretty good. The frosting on the pink cupcake was a little too sweet for me.. so next time I will skip that flavor and order a new one instead. The cookies and cream flavor looked interesting. We will be ordering again from them soon ! read more

I was in the mood for dessert, so I ordered via DoorDash from Smallcakes Cupcakery. The cupcakes and ice cream are outstanding! It's deceiving when you first look at the cupcakes, they appear to have very little frosting. The reason for having a smaller portion of frosting, is the frosting is so rich and delicious, you only need a small amount. They do an excellent job combining flavor and texture in their cupcakes. Arguably, these are some of the best cupcakes I have ever eaten. Also, I ordered what I thought was a cupcake and ice cream mix, but it was actually a milkshake. The milkshake was so thick and delicious I had to share it with my son, we both can barely drink the milkshake. If you're in the mood for dessert or like a thick milkshake, this dessert shop is unmatched. I highly recommend trying Smallcakes Cupcakery. read more

We stopped here for a nice little treat since we both had a little sweet tooth and boy are we glad we did!!! 1st tip - don't go here hungry LOL. They had such a good variety to choose from and I love that they have pup cakes for our doggies my bf got the carrot cake and I got the chocolate lovers. Mmmmmmm so good and so moist. Perfect for satisfying that sweet tooth craving. They are good size cupcakes - about the size of an adult fist. The frosting is very rich. I'm not a huge frosting person, I like a light layer that compliments the dessert. I ended up taking off about 3/4 of the frosting on my chocolate cupcake but my bf left all of his on the carrot cake and both were scrumptious. Compliments to the chef. The service was great. The girls were very friendly and treated us with a smile I highly recommend this cupcake shop!! read more

First of all I want to acknowledge and thank Ryan for his warm and outgoing personality. He was friendly, knowledgeable. Definitely a staff member that needs/must be acknowledged!!! This was my first time at Small Cakes and I will be adding it as a stop when I and in town for the birthday cake cupcake. The cake itself is so light and delicious. The cups cakes are very large. I divided mine in half. The icing is perfectly sweet and had the good tasting sprinkle balls on them. I also got another one and I am looking forward to having it tomorrow. The shop is large and delightful. read more

The staff was fantastic. We were visiting from out of town, living in FL and up for a wedding and birthday. We ordered the smallcakes for the Birthday, and they were a hit! We recommend them for all your cupcake needs! read more

Truly some of the best - if not THE best - cupcakes in Colorado Springs. The staff is super friendly and you can get gluten-free and dairy-free cupcakes, along with regular ones, any day of the week. My personality favorite is the Choc-a-holic, but the Chocolate Cream is really good as well. There are still many I haven't had, but you can be sure I'll be back to try them all :) read more

Respectfully, I would not place an order for an event unless it's the for cupcakes. I was very specific and even sent reference photos of the cake I was hoping for. I placed the order over 2 weeks in advance and stated I wanted rainbow colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple) I stated I would be putting a topper on the cake and they had suggested writing the "happy birthday" on the side of the cake. The cake itself was 85$ plus an up charge of 10$ for decorating and then the cost of the 2 cupcakes. All together I paid 120$ not including the tip. I came to pick up the cake the day before my twins first birthday and when I was shown the cake I immediately had a pit in my stomach because it was nothing like the reference photos I had sent. The colors were almost of monsters inc. and nothing like a rainbow. I was also horrified by the giant, poorly written happy birthday covering over 50% of the side of the cake in a color that I felt was wildly inappropriate for the colors they chose. But, unfortunately I did not speak up in that moment like I should have. I felt the pressure of time and the laundry list of things I still needed to accomplish prior to the birthday the following day. So I left feeling insecure about the cake and quite honestly angry with myself for being so passive. Once I got home I placed the cupcakes and cake in the fridge. When I took the cake out the next day and went to take it out of its "cake box" (it's a donut box) I saw that all of the piping was smashed and the side of the cake was falling. At this point I took pictures as it was so infuriating to see this the day of. Later, after the party started a guest came to me and informed me that the side of cake had fallen off. I had called today (7/19) as family had left 7/18 and I wanted to wait to address this once plate was a little less full. I called and spoke with the manager who listened to my concerns respectfully and offered a 25$ gift card. When I explained that I did not feel that this was an adequate resolution she stated that because it had been so long since the order was received (even tho I could provide time stamped photos) there was nothing more she could offer. And that the cupcakes were at fault to myself as they had fallen during transportation. I let the manager know that I would be posting an honest review with photos. At this point she clearly being irritated stating she would not be providing any type of reimbursement as I would be "slandering the company", which I do not feel I have done in this review. The cake itself was delicious and I appreciated her offer but felt that for the amount of money I spent and for both of my purchases to be ruined due to improper packaging and on the day of my twins first birthday, $25 was not a good offer. I am not going to place blame on the look of the cake as I passively said "it's great" because who wants to tell someone their cake looks bad to their face. But that's on me and a lesson I learned. I am ok with not being reimbursed if it means saving someone else in the future from making the same mistakes I did. And I truly hope that small cakes can understand this isn't me slandering their company (because truly your cake is delicious) but maybe find better packaging so this doesn't happen in the future and being more attentive to your customers requests and reference photos. read more

I had honestly forgotten that I came by here and got a treat the last trip to the springs until we walked in tonight to kill time waiting on our table down the street. I took one look at the setup and remembered EXACTLY where I was and I was so excited! I hadn't written it down in my place I have went so I was kicking myself trying to find the spot. They were almost cleaned out because I came 15 minutes before closing. Their options are great for a quick fun dessert. Cupcakes are moist and baked fresh daily. The icecream is so creamy and good. They have cookies and cake balls as well! I went for a 4 count classic vanilla cake ball cup to share with my sister before our dinner. Sweets are always good first LOL! They did not upset me at all. Totally worth the sugar. Worth the carbs. And worth the money. The atmosphere is so fun and it is very clean. Service is great and does well at helping you out deciding what you should try. The price is completely fair for this special kind of dessert bar. I am so glad we happened upon it again and one of my big reasons for writing my review is so I don't forget where to go when I visit again! read more

Smallcakes A Cupcakery - Vanilla Cake Balls - Cupcakes Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Stopped by before they were closing around 7:45 PM. Maybe the cupcakes were already sitting out all day, they were dry. We won't be going back. We were hoping a much better cupcakes for the price! This was our second trip. Our first trip was during the day. The cupcakes then weren't worth the $4 either. We were giving it another try, since we needed some cupcakes for someone's birthday. It was a waste of money. read more

I wanted to treat my significant other with a few cupcakes for Valentines Day.  The prices for what doesn't taste much better than a Walmart cupcake were outrageous.  The cake part wasn't a good texture...crumbly and flavorless.  The icing proportion is way too much and sickeningly sweet.  The person helping us was neither friendly nor rude.  I'd be shocked if this place gets a lot of repeat customers. read more

I got the chocolate cream cupcake and chocoholic ice cream the other day and we are going back today! My roommate got the red velvet and cookies & cream cupcake and the carrot cake ice cream she loved it! So excited to try more flavors :) Tip: I did get a ice cream cookie sandwich but the sugar cookies were pretty hard and ice cream soft made it hard to eat and it was a hot day so I'm just going to get ice cream in a bowl with the cupcake this time! read more

These cupcakes are very large and fancy. It was nice to see a place that actually has more than 3 flavors. They also had gluten free for my husband! And pupcakes :) There is something for EVERYONE here and the staff is friendly too. The flavors arent so fancy that you wouldn't want to eat them. Just normal fun creative cupcakes. The thing is, they're a little pricey and they aren't THAT tasty. The frosting is a little oily/lardy. The cake is very good but I could have sworn the vanilla bases have almond in them which is a dangerous game to play for people who may have allergies. I do not, but, i also really dislike almond flavor. It throws off the other flavors when you think you have plain vanilla or vanilla with choco frosting and then it tastes...odd. I would definitely recommend them, and I might even come again when i'm in the area. But they aren't my fave. read more

Awful! I read reviews of this place online, which were pretty good. I thought I was going to be getting something pretty yummy. Unfortunately, not. I don't know if with COVID they are cutting corners with their ingredients or what. Maybe I'm a "cupcake snob". I mean, I do have high standards when it comes to food. All things considered, I have chefs in my family and I'm from San Francisco. So, what happened? I purchased a dozen for a family birthday gathering. The "buttercream" frosting tasted like it was pre made out of a store bought container. Not original, at all! The cupcakes themselves were NOT homemade, but tasted like they were directly from a Betty Crocker box. It was clear after trying one, I realized I spent way too much on box made cupcakes. Disappointing to say the least. I mean honestly, you spend $47 on a dozen cupcakes, including your tax and tip, you expect something pretty amazing. A single cupcake is $3.75! They are way over priced for the quality they are dishing out. The place was empty when I arrived, which should have been a sign. Ugh, they were nothing shy of horrible. BEWARE. I won't ever go back and I don't recommend them. On a side note, we had AMAZING cupcakes just one day before, at the cupcake doctor! TRULY homemade cupcakes and you could tell with every ingredient, you could taste it Each cupcake had a unique, yummy frosting. Unfortunately, I couldn't remember their name today, so I ended up here. Try them. read more

Wow is all I have to say. I'm very pregnant and I needed to fulfill a sweet tooth craving. I ordered from DoorDash and I was so unbelievably satisfied with the two cupcakes I got. Hands down the best cupcake I've ever had and I like to think of myself as a cupcake connoisseur. A bold claim but a very truthful one! You won't be disappointed. read more

My niece recently found out she had to go gluten free. I was looking for a place that had gluten free desserts and came across smallcakes. When I called they said they had vanilla and chocolate but what I didn't know and found out when I got there was that they can ice it / top it custom with any flavor of their cupcakes they have available. That really made my niece super excited and happy, and everyone was able to enjoy their delicious cupcakes equally. We will definitely be back! read more

Ever heard of a Cupcake Smash? Neither had I until I found Small Cakes. I stumbled upon Small Cakes while looking to celebrate a friend's birthday with something sweet. I found Small Cakes and their ice cream & cupcake duos. Same concept as an ice cream sandwich, but maybe better. To make this work of art, choose two ice cream flavors to go in between the bottom and top half of a cupcake of your choice. I don't know why it took me so long to discover this. The cupcake was unfortunately a little stale (Birthday Cake) and unremarkable and the icing was dry, but I did go late in the afternoon so I'm hoping it was an off time or day. Awesome ice cream flavors -- Cookie Monster and Unicorn. Unique and addicting! This is the perfect fun treat for a special occasion or to cool off on a hot summer day. read more

I love this small cupcake business. I used to go to the one in Houston Texas and their service was superb!!!! I had issues on two different occasion with this SmallCakes in Colorado Springs. The one that bothered me the most is when I placed an order for a dozen cupcakes and asked if the frosting could be different colors. Her response was ' we're not able to do that because that would be wasting extra frosting since we wouldn't be able to use it again'. As a paying customer that disappointed me. If there was an extra fee I would pay it. But that wasn't even mentioned, just a straight no. The cupcakes were good but it didn't match the event I needed it for. If a customer is willing to pay for extra why not go that extra mile for them. read more

Smallcakes A Cupcakery - a box of cupcakes - Cupcakes Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

I received a box of these as a surprise birthday treat so we were already off to a good start :) I have to admit - I was questioning the appearance at first. They are much larger than your average "cupcakery" cupcake, and they had that sort of grocery store look about them. As soon as I bit into one, however, all fears melted away. The cupcake I tried was a chocolate salted caramel pretzel flavor. The chocolate cake itself, although it looked lighter than I had hoped, actually had good flavor. But the frosting was my favorite part - probably because it wasn't even frosting. It was pure, delicious caramel. A whole glob of it. When I picked the cupcake up originally, I wasn't sure if it was going to be a milk chocolate buttercream or actual caramel, and I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was the latter. The crispy pretzel pieces on top added to the experience. I only tried one flavor since they were so large, but the rest of my coworkers raved about the flavors they chose. I'll take that as a good sign and keep this place in mind for the future! read more

I don't usually make reviews but I came in 10 minutes before closing to get a birthday cupcake for my dog and they told me to get out, very rude young ladies. I came in another time and the manager said that was a mistake and the workers were wrong, but now that has happened on 2 occasions where the workers didn't even let me step inside the store. The lady sitting in her car in the parking lot told me how terrible the service is always. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Had a horrible experience with Smallcakes in Evergreen Park, IL. Horrible customer service. The employee gave me the wrong total amount, and then when I spoke to the manager about it.
