    Making a smash cake
    Iris R.

    Everything we've tried so far has been amazing ! Smash cakes, homemade ice cream, cake pops and of course the cupcakes!

    Smash Ice Cream
    Kelsey N.

    The food at small cakes is delicious, no doubt! I am concerned that their worker just used their hand (not gloved) to separate my cupcake for the smash icecream. It looks delicious but I'm worried to eat it now that her finger nails and hands have touched my food. I paid and left- probably wont be back. :( I shouldn't have to ask you not to touch my food.

    First let me start by saying that I love the cupcakes they sell here. They are all VERY good, nice variety, and consistently look nice. This review is NOT about the cupcakes, (those get 5 stars) but about a custom cake order: I wanted a "galaxy" cake for my husband's 30th birthday. We have bought cupcakes from this location before, so I thought this would be the perfect place to order from. I emailed them a picture of what I wanted, and received a call from the head baker a day later. She said they could absolutely do it, and gave me some good advice on cake size for the amount of people we were having. I was very excited, as we don't usually order cakes like this. I wanted this to be special for my husband. I went to pick up the cake today, again very excited. The girls brought the cake from out back, and through the crack in the box, all I could see was black or navy frosting.. I asked if we could pull it out (which she obliged). I started turning it around, still not seeing the colors. The girl working the register pointed to the top of the cake, showing the barely-there bit of "galaxy". I admit I was disappointed, just nodding. She then says "Oh, well, it's dark inside the box, you just can't see the other colors." I didn't know what else to say, and didn't want to argue, so I just signed the sheet, picked up the cake, and left. My mother in law and I pulled it out at home, and her immediate comment was "You paid $60 for a navy blue cake with sprinkles?" Cue complete deflation. I felt horrible. The cake ended up tasting okay, and my husband thought his "black" frosted cake was cool, I just didn't show him what the reference photo looked like. I will keep coming back here for cupcakes, but I will probably order any future "custom" cakes somewhere else. A friend pointed out that the color probably melted into the black frosting during prep, which makes sense, but I wish they had told me that when I picked it up, instead of telling me that I just wasn't seeing the color inside the box.

    Lemon drop, birthday cake, fudge, and can't remember the other one
    Janiel R.

    I got 4 different cupcakes. The birthday cake, lemon drop, chocolate fudge and I can't remember the name of the one that looks like little Debbie cupcakes. I found the fudge cake itself to be a bit dry frosting on all cupcakes was really really sweet. My lemon drop cupcake was delicious the cake itself was moist. I would come back just to try the other flavors! Delightful treat for sure!

    What an adorable cupcake and ice cream shop filled with incredibly delicious treats. The shop is bright with lots of natural light from the large windows. The decor is light and whimsical with three 4-top tables for dine in. This location has only been open for 5 months but word has spread rapidly about how scrumptious everything is. Cupcakes disappear quickly so come early or call ahead to place an order. Smallcakes is a franchise and beginning to open up all over the Houston area and Country. Maybe they'll make it to Speedway, Indiana someday soon. Smallcakes prepares Daily, and from scratch, 18 featured cupcakes out of the abundance of flavors available with weekly and monthly featured flavors. Each cupcake is a full, standard size cupcake at $3.75. I've tried the Lemon Drop, Wedding Cake, Hot Fudge Sundae and Caramel Crunch. The Lemon Drop is my favorite followed closely by the Caramel Crunch. The cupcakes are moist and flavorful topped with a thick, creamy, buttercream icing that isn't sickinly sweet. Many of the cupcakes have a rich filling such as the Lemon Drop, Hot Fudge Sundae and Chocolate Cream. Smallcakes donates every cupcake remaining at the end of business day to a Women's Shelter so their is no waste. All cupcakes and ice cream are made fresh daily so we receive the freshest product. Not only do they make cupcakes but15 phenomenal ice cream flavors and specialty cakes. I sampled the Wedding Cake that truly lived up to the name and had a scoop of the Salted Caramel Crunch which was sinful. Each scoop is $3.75. I can't wait to try the Smashcake which is your favorite cupcake split in half with the bottom in a tall cup, two scoops of ice cream in the middle, topped off with the top half of the cupcake. Yum! The Shakes are made with your favorite cupcake and ice cream blended together. The service was as perfect as the Salted Caramel Ice Cream. She was both server and early morning baker plus a true advocate for Smallcakes. I look forward to visiting again soon.

    Cute shop! Between Joe's and a fitness place behind Krogers. Easy parking. Pink and brown sign. I've been to the Richmond location before. Excited this opened closeby. The cake portion of the cupcakes are melt in your mouth soft. Their icing is super sweet but I am not an icing person so I don't eat it anyway. Some of the cupcakes are filled inside. I feel like a lot of their cupcakes are chocolate or vanilla with different icing (& again I don't eat icing) so unless I come early and get their daily specials (Nutella, fruity pebbles, etc) I'd be stuck with the basic. Their ice cream flavors are unique and pretty good. Ice cream is pricey. Cupcakes are $3.75/cupcake except if you get the gluten free ($5). You can also custom design ice cream cakes and get milkshakes.

    Just a whole mixture of confusion lol. 6 mini cupcakes but there's 24 in the photo and then when I ordered it's said 1 6 mini cupcakes which looked like a 16. If you ask me the fugazzi was beautifully orchestrated. Will never order from here again for that price and poor advertising.

    My first visit this afternoon around 1:30 pm. Very impressed with the nice clean space and decor. The had a good variety to choose from. I purchased the chocolate with creme filled similar to the Hostess cupcake. Loved it, moist and tender cake, delish chocolate ganache style frosting. This cupcake has now ruined Hostess for me. Lol. Tomorrow will have the milk chocolate cupcake for dessert. The lady who took my order gave me a quick overview on the product and selections. She was very friendly and generously gave me a discount for my birthday and explained the reward bonus. I will continue to support this business and will up my daily steps so that I can indulge on each flavor they have. I'm a very satisfied customer.

    My husband and I both truly enjoyed this class! We learned how to ice the cake and practice…read moredifferent piping and decorating techniques. This class is great for beginners, and our instructor V was the sweetest and most patient person ever. We found the cost affordable, especially considering that all decorating tools, items, and the cake were included. It was a lovely experience and a great way to wind down over the weekend. Also loved the Christmas decor in the shop, as well as all the carols playing in the background. We'll definitely come back with others.

    All I can say is Sweetie V's bento cake decorating workshop is up there as a Houston must-do!…read moreVonteyah was awesome! Delicious cake, clear instructions, and cute comfortable interior. We had a blast decorating cakes for Mother's Day as gifts. ---- Vonteyah, better known as Sweetie V, is offering arguably one of Houston's best weekend activities with friends. You can have fun, dress cute, and walk away with something edible. I booked with a group of 3 on Eventbrite, 48 hours before the workshop. The storefront is a bit unassuming, but the interior is so cute! There is also a parking lot. Upon arrival, Sweetie V provided us everything we needed. We started by washing our hands, then putting on a disposable apron (great for protecting any cute outfits!), and making introductions with name tags. I have no cake decorating experience and I walked away at the end learning a lot and motivated by this workshop to start decorating! The process is MESSY but allows for a lot of sampling of the sweets as you assemble your cake. Overall, Sweetie V was patient and we had so much fun joking around with her. After completely frosting the cake as per Sweetie V's instructions, we got to practice piping on a laminated practice sheet. When we felt ready, we were able to go crazy decorating! For customization, there's food coloring, sprinkles, red cherries, glitter, and ribbon for BOWS! It was so fun and whatever frosting you don't finish during your workshop, you can take home. Our cakes were packed with love in a cake tote. We were also gifted an extra sweet snack box! The cakes were WOW, so delicious. Not too sweet and so spongey and delicate. The frosting was not heavy, though if you decorate your cake with a lot of frosting, your cake might become too sweet for your liking. The brownie we also bought while we were there was such a treat as well- moist, less fudgey and more light, but definitely chocolatey. We finished the cake and brownie almost the same day. All I can say is that if you're in the area and haven't made a trip to Sweetie V's, you're missing out! We had such a fun time and she is so sweet. The money paid was well spent with how much we walked away with. Highly recommend booking a cake decorating workshop ASAP!
