THESE ARE THE BEST SWEETS IN THE AREA! This is definitely my go to! They are always updating their menu. For the holidays we fell in love with their cocoa bombs, and just yesterday I purchased a couple of cake pops, which is a new item. LISTEN TO ME.....it was the absolute best cake pop I've ever had! It was strawberry and tasted amazing! I'm so mad I didn't buy more as I only I have one more left! We also purchased a few cupcakes in a jar. We can't wait to try those along with the new cocoa bomb flavors, salted caramel, birthday cake, cookies and cream and (if I'm remembering correctly, Cinnabon. Please check them out if you're in the area, you won't be sorry. Anyone who says otherwise is clearly not a southerner, LOL! read more

They've been on Food Network over and over again for a reason. Expect a bit pricey, but expect it to be worth it. Moist, flavorful insides, sugary crisp crusts and icing flavors that make you want more. Just go, don't read anymore about it. read more

I was so excited to stop in and try one of the cupcakes, and I had just checked into Yelp. I am a lover of taking pictures and was polite enough to ask one of the clerks if it was okay to take a picture of the display. To my dismay and disbelief, I was told "no" that I could not take a picture. I guess Smallcakes will not have my business. Too bad for the terrible customer service, they would have really pretty pictures posted to Yelp to help others see how beautiful of the cupcakes were. I will not step back into this business. I do not write any bad reviews, but the customer service here was not of good standards. read more

Visited for the first time today: friendly staff, great selection of cupcakes, quick service and delicious cupcakes (fluffy with yummy frosting). Will definitely return. read more

This is an amazing little cupcake shop- and the Cary location is (in my opinion) the best. The staff are always cheery and up front about there recommendations, but most importantly the cupcakes are always moist and delicious. I can't recommend a flavor because they are seriously all so good. Make sure you stop by for their annual Harry Potter weekend to get the special Butterbeer flavor (which might be my favorite). read more

Smallcakes is a cute-as-a-button cupcake boutique. The highlight is the cake part - light, moist, and consistently prepared. They also have tons of different choices. The cream icing is fresh, but much sweeter than I prefer. The sweetness is a subjective preference rather than something objectively bad. Decorating is also really professionally done - something you'd serve as a special birthday treat rather than the plain-old-grocery-store-topping. My run-away favorite flavor is their lemon cupcake. The downside is that cupcakes run $4 a pop. But this is a stand-alone retail cupcake store, which has a business model that makes it difficult to sell more affordable cupcakes. read more

Excellent cupcakes both is taste and variety. They are open late which is great for those evening and night sweet cravings. I drove 20 min to get there and I don't regret it. read more

The restaurant was absolutely adorable and beautiful. It's as if a unicorn threw up on a bakery hehe. The presentation of the cupcakes were super cute. I selected the salted caramel cupcake because I'm not a big fan of sweets, but it was really good! The cake was moist to my liking, but there was too much frosting and not enough salted caramel. If you got a sweet tooth, then I highly recommend Smallcakes. read more

Small Cakes is a nice cozy place to hangout with family and friends. We tried Red Velvet, Mexican Espresso and Salted Caramel, all r soooo yumm read more

I have had Smallcakes a few times with exceptional service and decent cupcakes but yesterday I got a cupcake that was a vanilla base and chocolate icing. The cupcake was not dry nor moist. Tasted just like boxed cake mixed you get for $2 at Walmart (had the same texture of boxed mix as well) :( and the "chocolate" icing did not taste so chocolatey still tasted like regular buttercream to me. I would love to go to them again still but I hope that cupcake doesn't always taste like boxed mix and that was just a one time thing because their cupcakes are beautiful and staff are nice ! read more

I like the cupcakes here! We had the salt caramel and sweet potato. The cake was very soft and the frosting was rich! Seriously, the cake was very very soft, might be one of the softest ones! The servers are very friendly and the decoration is very interesting. They also have the cupcakes for dog! read more

Its is fine cake place. The only downside is there weren't cakes not filled with lots of icing. So if you're looking for less sugary then bundt cake is better. This is good for celebrations. They are a bit pricey. They even charge for a small candle and a box and they don't tell you or print the price so a bit sneaky. read more

I enjoyed a couple of Vanilla Cream mini-cupcakes at work. The yellow cake was super moist and the consistency of the frosting was absolutely perfect. It tasted like it was whipped! Not too sweet, just how I like it. I can't wait to try out the other flavors! read more

Delicious. Just delicious. The cake was super moist which is a rarity amongst many cupcake shops, and the frosting was very flavorful and decadent. I got the chocolate peanut butter cupcake (obviously) and the wife got the salted caramel. Both were really good. My friends got the pink chocolate and their daughter did NOT want to share it, lol. Check this place out because they are the best cupcakes in the area. read more

Smallcakes Cary - Yummy!!! - Cupcakes Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

I needed cupcakes on a Sunday for my husband's birthday. We recently moved and are still unpacking. This was the only place open on Sunday that had baked goods. After reading the reviews, I was really excited to try it out. They have 12 different types of cupcakes. I ordered the cannoli cupcakes, the Mamosa cupcakes, and a red velvet cupcakes. The Mamosa cupcake and the Red velvet cupcakes were absolutely delicious! However the cannoli cupcakes were very rich and had so much flavor. it was difficult to eat the entire cupcake. I've had cannoli cupcakes from The Fresh Market that were better. I would recommend this place to others in the future, especially their regular flavors. I most likely will be back in the future. read more

Yeah for a cupcake store close to me! We decided to stop here after dinner out. We purchased four cupcakes to take home which was around $15. We tasted them all and the cake was tender and flavorful. The icing is a bit much for me but perfect for my husband who is a sweet fiend. It would have been nice to have some type of berry cupcake that wasn't as sweet or even small ones to purchase on site. There was plenty of seating including outside and it's location next to cine bowl can't hurt! I'm sure we will come back to try some more. read more

I ordered cupcakes for my daughter's 18th birthday. I was able to speak directly to the baker and discuss how exactly my daughter wanted. Everything turned out as discussed. They were a big hit at her party and exceeded our expectations. Thanks for making her day special. read more

I talked my husband into trying Smallcakes spontaneously and we were not disappointed! The service was very good and let's just say the cupcakes were gone in a matter of minutes! We will definitely keep this place on deck when we're craving a sweet treat! read more

Yum! These are by far the best cupcakes I've found in the triangle! The cake is moist and flavorful and the icing is delicious, sweet but not cloyingly so. I've tried all of the basic varieties and try to make it in to try some of the rotating flavors often and they're all delicious. Try these, you won't regret it! read more

Thee very best cupcakes! Ever! A little pricey but when you want to treat yourself- it's so worth It! We stop here faithfully for dessert after a movie and dinner at Cinebowl. So yea....treat yoself! read more

Always bring them when we're going to a party or someone's house and it's always a hit! Delicious and adorable!

I was told to make sure and check out the new cupcakery that just opened in Parkside and definitely was not disappointed. We were celebrating my Mom's birthday and thought a set of 4 would be great for her and my Dad to try. The staff was superb at answering questions about flavors and fillings and the cupcakes were fantastic! Super moist with just the right amount of icing to cupcake. This will definitely be the place to get cupcakes from now on. Others in the area can't touch the quality. I highly recommend the Red Velvet, Birthday Cake and Chocolate Chip Cooke Dough (when available). I know the business is super new so look forward to a follow-up visit to see if the excellent quality continues. Great addition to the Cary neighborhood. read more

I personally don't think their cupcakes are that great. Sometimes they straight up taste like cardboard, especially anything chocolate. I once had Italian wedding cake and it was disgusting. Mostly way too much icing that is bland or doesn't match the flavor of the cupcake. I'm just not impressed. Publix has better flavor lol and this place is SO expensive. It's like $4, or close to that, per cupcake. read more

The customer service was awesome- I found the price to be comparable- if you don't want to drive to downtown Raleigh or Durham it's an alternative- We sampled 3 different types of cupcakes - the presentation is lovely read more

Pretty good cupcakes here..By the time I ventured here on a Saturday it was about an hour before closing. Choices were limited and I really was not in the mood for chocolate. I went for the pink vanilla cupcake. A vanilla cupcake with pink buttercream frosting. It was very good.. small, but good. I'm a cupcake fan and occasionally searching. Small cakes is worth the trip and I recommend getting more than one to satisfy a sweet tooth. read more

My 1st & last visit ever. Why does a dozen cupcakes cost $36 dollars. Seriously, it's just cupcakes? WTFudge??

They all tasted like someone just bought them at the grocery store. Overpriced as well. What a waste.

Check their hours. They say that they are open from 10 am to 9pm Monday-Thursday, however they were not open today from 5 to 6. Super inconvenient when you drive 30 minutes for cupcakes. read more

Cute place and I was surprised to find that they had a good selection late in the evening. I got a chocolate cream filled cupcake and a birthday cake cupcake. The cake part was soft, fresh and moist but too sweet for my taste. The icing was good. Overall nice combos but very rich and sweet, the sweetness was not balanced enough for me. read more
