    This place is small and provides very little sitting space. The decor looks cute and fitting for a cupcake local. On the outside, it says cupcakery and creamery. They sell cupcakes and ice cream, that's it. I would give this place a higher score if they sold milk, chocolate milk, or something else to enjoy with your cupcake but alas all they sell is water and that doesn't exactly scream flavor. I find it strange that they don't sell milk more so because the subtitle of the place is creamery. Not only that, but they sell MILKshakes, which means they have to have milk back there somewhere. Pour it on a cup and sell it to me gosh darn it. I haven't tried the ice cream yet, but I'll come on a second day for that. For now, I shall enjoy the peanut butter cupcake I got. The icing was too sweet, to the point I had to remove most of it and just occasionally dab into it. The bread in the cupcake itself was good, but felt under-baked towards the center. I still enjoyed it somewhat. I'll have to visit it again for a hopefully better experience, as the local was 30 minutes away from closing.

    Yo a cupcake with ice cream sandwiched between. What comes better than that? Got a blueberry cupcake with two scoops of pistachio ice cream. Sounds like an odd combination but the sweetness of the cupcake balances and the pistachio balance each other out.

    Well worth the recommendation. I had been waiting all week to go try this place and wow! So many things, so many choices that I had to slow down my mind because there was so much joy in it. I thought with my stomach today and it decided in getting the cupcake smash. I went with the really fruity looking fruity pebbles cupcake and for ice cream I had to keep it fresh and got a orange creamsicle flavor. The owner said I'd be in for a delight and boy was I. Ice cream was amazing and creamy. Overall I'd give this place a 9.6/10. Oh and btw, they got cupcakes for your dogs!!!!!

    Cupcake Smash- pistachio cupcake with coconut and bacon ice cream. Great!

    Not only is this place cute, but their cupcakes and ice cream are super delicious!! I had the Cupcake Smash which is a cupcake cut in half with two different ice cream flavors in between. They make their own ice cream, so they have a variety of unique flavors. I ordered the coconut ice cream which had a creamy consistency (so don't be afraid of icy ice cream here!) and little strips of coconut. I also ordered an ice cream which had bacon in it, and this flavor was unlike any you can find at your typical ice cream shop. It was a daring creation and strange enough to spark my interest. It was very strong in its flavor and salty, like caramel, so it can be overwhelming, but I recommend trying it as an experience. I enjoyed it! Aside from the ice cream, I also had the pistachio cupcake which was equally as amazing! It had a yummy filling inside, was moist, and the frosting light but full of flavor. So good! The girl who worked there was the most lively, passionate worker who I've ever been served by, and the owner came out and greeted us, chatting about their experience so far. Everything from start to finish was superb!

    I'm here thinking about my grandma and she is not doing too well. I'm from the Dallas area and have family down south. I went to visit her 2 weeks ago and found this little gem! My family loved these cupcakes. It helped us smile and laugh with the little moments we have with her. The owner was the sweetest guy ever! He had told me his name, and I forgot, if anyone knows it please let me know! I will be making a visit every time I visit my grandma and family!!

The owner was so sweet and helpful! She was so patient with me as I was deciding what to try! The space is small but they had everything neatly on display. I have to say, I'm a little surprised at some of these reviews because every item I purchased was delicious! I tried their strawberry cupcake and the cake was moist and flavorful! The frosting was a little too sweet but the tartness of the jelly filling balanced everything out. I tried their lavender and cookies and cream macarons and they were so good! I liked that the lavender had a tart filling in the center. I got a cosmic brownie for my brother to try and he said it was amazing! I also got a danish which was pretty good and I just had to get a lemon bar and one of the blueberry pie bars because they are the best! This is my new go to place for baked goods! Reasonably priced compared to other newer bakeries popping up!

Before ordering, we bought sample cupcakes. We ordered a heart shaped, double layered chocolate cake with buttercream icing and sprayed on gold color. It was a beautiful cake. The gentleman stayed it would be white buttercream icing with the gold sprayed on top of it. We picked the cake up, it was ready on the counter, and they offered to carry the cake to the car. When we cut into the cake, the frosting was golden and the sprayed gold tasted weird. We just scraped off the gold thin layer and were able to enjoy the moist cake with buttercream icing. The price was very reasonable! We will definitely buy another cake from here.
