Pup cakes for my pups 1st birthday
Angie R.

This location is right by my work and one of my coworkers has brought cupcakes from here on a few occasions. I've always thought they were good and the flavors were creative. My boss told me that they also make pup cakes for the doggos and being that it was my puppy's first birthday I decided to go get him a treat. Waking into the bakery is heaven!! Smells so look, it's visually appealing and there are so many choices I was there for the pup cakes and was able to get two for a real good price. My doggies inhaled their pup cake and they both approved. I decided to get some cupcakes while I was there and got a strawberry cupcake, a hot fudge sundae and a peanut butter cupcake. All three were amazing. Super moist and the frosting is always perfect! I will be going back more often.

The customer service here was amazing!!! The lady was so helpful and so patient while I couldn't decide on all the delicious flavors. Have to say my favorite one was the carrot cake as you can see, it barely made it through the photo shoot. Red velvet was decadent and delicious as well! Also tried their hot cocoa bombs and loved them, hopefully they'll start having them all season long!

Dry cupcakes

Edit: 5/21 Sal the business owner keeps reporting or having delegates report my review. Not sure why. If he wants to he can reach out to me and provide cupcakes for me to review again if he wants me to try it again. Ate cupcakes from here a while back. My last review was removed for whatever reason but I'm rewriting to make sure a valuable review is provided. The cupcakes we had were not moist at all. The frosting seemed like it was a bit too whipped. I've made much better cupcakes at my own house. The people inside for pickup seemed nice. This was before all of the COVID problems. I would not come back and order from here. I've found more local options online for better tasting cupcakes than this corporate location. I also don't agree that they should have their business open during a quarantine. They are non essential and have no business operating right now. Regardless the cupcakes were not the sweetest or that moist. 4/10 would not recommend. The location in Naperville does it better. Take the extra drive. Scenic route.

I don't think I've had a bad cupcake from here. I've tried to support as many cupcake businesses as possible since they're my favorite treat but small cakes is where it's at! My favorite is their birthday cake. I purchased 6 cupcakes today for about $22. They are larger than your typical cupcake.

Salted caramel was so good!

I stopped by Smallcakes yesterday for the first time. I was picking up pizza at Lou's next door and thought I'd stop by and check them out. When I walked in I honestly thought they were closing shortly because they were so empty... I selected 6 cupcakes even though there weren't many to choose from, which left me a little disappointed. Since this was the first time coming my first impression wasnt great. I wasnt treated when I entered. I really think your front service people should be outgoing and more inviting. However, the cupcakes I did choose were very good. Definitely loved the salted Carmel. I will try them again and hope to find a bigger selection in the future.

I meant to snap a photo prior to digging in, however, was clearly unable to resist. Cupcakes and cake pops were delicious!

Delicious! We had the peanut butter and the pumpkin cupcakes tonight. The service was good and the guy working there knew his products. The cupcakes were moist and just the right amount of sweet. The pumpkin was good, but that peanut butter...yum! My boyfriend had to share after I watched him, with my sad eyes, dig into that gooey chocolate! I also didn't offer to share my pumpkin with him. I'm stingy like that. If you are a non-sharer, like me, get 2 of each!

a variety of cupcakes

We had booked with Small Cakes for our wedding and I'm so glad that we did! Tanya was incredible to work with throughout the entire process. She was so bubbly and fun to work with. It's obvious that she truly loves what she does. With us having a wedding during COVID, plans had definitely changed. She was on top of it and made sure that she spoke with us again to go over the final details with all the new plans. She was willing to make any design we asked for, and they looked great! They tasted amazing as well! We will definitely be going back to get more cupcakes from them. Photography done by Inspired Eye Photography

The best cupcakes EVER. The store is super cute. Everyone's always been really nice when I've gone in. A little expensive but worth it.

Wow. Ron Swanson would hate it here, which means this is the place for me to get the desserts I can…read moreeat without the inflammation! Thank you Eye Candy. This is the cutest little shop right on the downtown strip in Geneva. Inviting atmosphere, amazing smells and even better customer service. You can feel the passion oozing out of the two women who were working there this morning! Bonus...they loved my amazing Barefoot Contessa shirt...did we just become best friends!? I tried the coffee/crumb cake, pecan fudge shortbread square and their chocolate chip cookie. Everything in the store is gluten free with vegan and dairy free options, as well (perfect for us almond moms, at least that's what my a-hole kids call me). I am a baked goods snob, having owned a catering company that specialized in baked goods, and this shit was TOP TIER!! Truly, you wouldn't know it's gluten free...seriously. The cookie was gooey with the crispy edge you're looking for, the cake was light and not grainy, in the slightest, and the shortbread fudge bar was rich and delicious! Make sure you run to this place if you're seeking amazing and allergy friendly treats! You can thank me later.

The turnovers are my absolute favorite followed closely by the salted caramel brownie and cookies and cream cheesecake. Menu items are switched up often with a few staples. Sometimes by the time I can get there the selections are limited. They usually post what they have at the beginning of the day on their instagram and I'm sure people are a lot like me and see how delicious the items look and run in to snatch it up.

The cake was very reasonably priced. The staff was very friendly when I came to pick it up. I ordered funfetti with vanilla buttercream. It was very sweet and delicious! The whole party seemed to really enjoy the cake. There are so many options here such as cookies, cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries. I definitely can't wait to try some more of their baked goods here!

I followed up three separate times after the event to share my concerns and received no response at all--which really shows how little they value customer service. * I didn't receive the full list of cake flavor options until four days before pickup, and when I asked to switch flavors, I was told it was already too late because the cakes had been baked without confirming my choice. * I had a confirmed pickup time of 10:30 a.m., but when I arrived, I was told the designer went home sick and the cakes weren't finished. I ended up waiting until 11:45 a.m. for them to be decorated, which explains the rushed design. * The cake pops weren't ready, so I had to cancel them and run to another store last-minute to find replacements. * I specifically requested pastel colors, but the cakes were decorated in bright colors that didn't match anything we discussed. * The design and quality were extremely disappointing--the decorations looked rushed, the frosting was hard, and the smash cake wasn't even edible for its intended use. Overall, this was an unprofessional and frustrating experience from start to finish. Between the poor communication, lack of accountability, low-quality product, and complete disregard for customer concerns, I strongly recommend going elsewhere. They clearly do not prioritize quality or customer service.

Yuuuup, I'll be here on a monthly basis. They also have a punch card system. Every 12 cupcakes will get you 1 cupcake for free. The inside is super cool, there are numerous spots for photo ops and they even have a ring light and camera holder if interested in using it. My first time visiting I tried the following cupcakes: chai pumpkin latte (daily special and DANGGGG DELICIOUS), Almond wedding (my least favorite but still good, I think almond cupcakes just aren't for me), cookies and cream (divine, rich, 2nd favorite), and the Boston cream (also 2nd favorite lol). All of the cupcakes were moist, fluffy, and full of flavor. They are made daily and you can feel and taste the love. Area 51 is definitely my favorite cupcake spot of all time. I've gone to Area 51 probably every week since finding em and I can't get enough. They also made cupcakes for my baby's gender reveal. They were extremely accommodating and everything turned out perfect! I highly recommend them for custom cakes, cupcakes, or even just grabbing 1 of their daily made cupcakes. SOOO GOOD!
