Favorite pics of my kids over the years which the bakery added to the cake.

Very very late review. They made my kids birthday cake...not only did it taste great, but it was beautiful too.

They look gorgeous but the cupcakes are not good
Tayler E.

These cupcakes just are not good! I'm so disappointed because they did look beautiful for presentation at my baby shower but the cake texture was thick and reminded me of a dry muffin and the icing was hard. Extremely saddened that these cupcakes went to waste and it was a waste of money!!! Also i called to put the order in and they gave me a completely different price from what it says online. Each cupcake says $4.25 regular but they said it's now $4.75 and that was before i asked for special designs. So just be aware their prices changed. As a business owner you have to honor what's on your website until you can get it changed. But whatever i still ordered because the reviews said they were good and idk if these are fake reviews but the cupcakes were not good! A lot of my guest did not eat them or picked at them to be nice. Very embarrassing to have these st my shower, i won't be back.

Wedding couple and Sweet Red Velvet Cake!!

I needed a red velvet cake for a wedding dinner celebration. I am from Kentucky and after calling quite a few bakeries, I found SWEET! They were just amazing. Service awesome! Cake - unbelievable! Best red velvet EVER! Decorated so special. And I also had a Latte and a mini Cupcake when I went to pick up. This is THE PLACE!!!

I came here after dinner as I was craving something sweet. I love eating something sweet and I am always in the mood for cake. The quaint bakeshop is located near a park. Due to COVID, they are limiting the amount of people in the store. I ordered a Red Velvet ($3.75) and a Fluffernutter ($3.75). The cupcakes were tasty but, I felt that they were a bit small to be "regular" sized. Personally, I thought the taste and presentation was just okay. I didn't see anything that made them noteworthy to visit again. The bakery had tons of interesting flavors but, I am not sure I would return. Maybe if I was in the area again. The one thing I didn't like is that the cupcakes were placed in a paper bag. I had to be very careful on transporting home my goodies. The customer service was okay. The person didn't really seem into being there one way or another. I was just another fly on the wall for all they cared.

Delicious and sweet! The mini cupcakes snd themed cookies were perfect for my daughter in law's shower at Dozzinos !

Lemon, Chocolate Coconut, Chocolate Chip Cheesecake, Banana, Vanilla/Vanilla, and Fluffer Nutter Cupcake

I've passed Sweet many times, but had never been in until Saturday afternoon. There was a good variety to choose from so I got 6 different cupcakes: Lemon, Chocolate Coconut, Chocolate Chip Cheesecake, Banana, Vanilla/Vanilla, and Fluffer Nutter. If I had to choose a favorite - it would be the Banana cupcake. 4-star rating because the cupcakes didn't seem super fresh, and there wasn't much of a size difference between the minis ($2) and regular ($3.75) - I got the regulars anyway. Since their shop doesn't have a ton of room, for COVID protocols - they limit it to 3 customers inside at once which I appreciated.

I needed a cake last minute and sweet's staff were extremely helpful. Their customer service was excellent and my cake turned out perfect. And also delicious!

I ordered my 25th birthday cake there & the team was absolutely amazing to work with!! They were all so kind with making my vision come to life & we're happy to take inspo pics. The cake was delicious - I did chocolate w their mocha filling & vanilla frosting, all my guests raved about it and the cake was also HUGE! So I was so happy to have some leftovers. I did also grab a GF brownie, those were so yummy, you could not even tell they were different from a normal one. Only downside is they are a bit pricey, but after trying to get into contact with other bakeries or just have them understand my vision, I would 100% be happy to pay Sweet again for their amazing work & responsiveness.

All cupcakes are available in regular size ($4.25) & in minis ($2.25.) We ordered a variety of flavors -- Lemon, Chocolate Coconut, Chocolate with Marshmallow meringue, a mini-sized Black Bottom, & Fluffernutter for me. I can't speak for the rest of the cupcakes but my vanilla cake had the dense, dry texture of a muffin. I did, however, like its double topping of both peanut butter frosting & marshmallow meringue. Neither the staff nor other customers were wearing masks (I get it, it's their choice, & we're not in Cali anymore, Toto.) The bakery was stuffy so even though it was an overcast day, we took our goodies to nearby Church Square Park because it felt safer to be outside. The cupcake flavors are creative & Sweet doesn't skimp on frosting, but the cake texture & cashier's cold attitude make me want to choose another dessert spot next time I'm in the area.

They just threw the cupcakes into a bag! They used to put them in a box. Disappointed.

My review is solely on the cupcakes since I ran in and out in less than 5 minutes so I didn't get to see all that Sweet offers. I was looking for a bakery in Hoboken which had good reviews and stumbled upon Sweet! I needed 20 cupcakes ASAP for a birthday party in a couple of hours and since Sweet had the cupcakes already laid out it was easy to pick what I wanted. They have mini cupcakes for $2.00 or regular sized cupcakes for $3.75. I opted for the mini cupcakes since I needed 20 cupcakes I did not want to empty my wallet. I picked out 5 raspberry, 5 carrot cake, 5 vanilla and 5 red velvet for $40. Fast forward to the birthday party, the cupcakes were DEVOURED! They were soft, fluffy, decadent, creamy, just everything I hoped they'd be. We left the birthday party with one remaining which was gone really quick. Thank you Sweet, I will be back :)

I absolutely love Sweet. Their cupcakes are so delicious, moist, and fresh and they have a wide variety to choose from. I've never tried their cakes but I am sure they are as delicious as their cupcakes. Everyone that works there is super friendly too. Definitely recommend!

Ordered two cakes for an event I was having. Vanilla with vanilla buttercream and a chocolate with chocolate pudding. Outstanding. Probably the best vanilla cake I have ever had, frankly, and I order a lot of cakes. It was a dense cake and VERY flavorful. I sent in images and the owners were beyond accommodating. Delivered at exact time requested. Thank you again.

It's been over 17 years since my first Yelp review of Magnolia Bakery. Unlike other foodie lemmings…read moreat the time, I wasn't caught up in the cupcake craze started by this iconic shop. Remember when this was one of Carrie's hangouts on "Sex & the City"? That exposure triggered nearly 70 locations worldwide. Jamie W and I were back in the neighborhood after a tipple at Julius'. I have to admit I never understood the appeal of the cupcakes. However, I had never tried their banana pudding before, and I liked how you can grab a readymade carton from the fridge and pay for it right away. Meanwhile, a lot of self-absorbed women were crowded around the cupcake display waiting for their little boxes. We took our stash across the street to the mostly deserted playground.. Ah, so the pudding was the draw all along. We grabbed two, the $6.25 Chocolate Peanut Butter (Photo 5) and the $5.75 Classic Banana (Photo 4). They both have lighter-than-expected whipped cream and sliced bananas. Of course the classic layers Nilla vanilla wafers, while the other applies Oreo cookie crumbles and chocolate chunks. No complaints about either, though the classic still wins. FOOD - 4 stars..indulgent treats, aren't they? AMBIANCE - 3 stars...still packed after all these years, purely takeout SERVICE - 4 stars...for the pudding yes but for cupcakes, it's a sea of estrogen TOTAL - 4 stars...forget the cupcakes!

The pudding was super soft and fluffy with a strong banana flavor. It was pretty sweet for me, and I would've preferred it a little less sweet, but it was still delicious. I loved how it was creamy, light, and cohesive. It was a small shop for grab and go, and it was early in the day, so there was no wait. Staff were friendly. I would love to have another banana pudding whenever I'm back in the area!

Glad I did as the iced coffee was very good, and the almond croissant was delicious. Hit the spot as I sat at one of their tables and cooled down. There is a variety of baked goods here - cupcakes, cookies, pies, scones, and more. A few tables inside and a bench outside to sit and relax. Has an old school style decor with a homey feel. Seems like a mixed bag of reviews here, so I'm glad I had a decent experience.

Billy's Bakery was a great find! They had fresh baked cakes, cupcakes, scones - you name it!…read more The gentleman behind the counter was icing cupcakes as I walked in. I opted for a cupcake and coffee. The smell was too good. I ordered an iced oat milk latte as well. I'm not a vegan but prefer nondairy milk in coffee. I didn't see many vegan options in the shop. However, chocolate buttercream and yellow cupcake is my go to and typically my favorite. It's a classic. I ordered and sat down to rest a minute and enjoy my upcoming treat. What I liked: 1. The cake to icing ratio was just the right amount. 2. The yellow cake was delicious and moist. What needed improvement: 1. The chocolate buttercream didn't have enough chocolate flavor. It was too much cream and not enough chocolate flavor. Would I go back? Sure, I'd go back to try other flavors. This may have been a batch that didn't get the right amount of chocolate.

The brother- sister duo running the shop are some of the sweetest people I have ever met! I noticed one comment mentioning they were copying another shop but this is a bakery with many types and variations of desserts and is not a copy of anyone's shop. You can get inspiration from many places or just try to meet the needs of different clientele by varying your product, and I believe that's where the mini cupcakes came into play in this scenario. In any event, my mom loves the vanilla cake with the chocolate icing. My mom would want to ride up to the shop after her visit to MSK and as a treat to herself wanted a slice of cake, but not any cake. A slice from Buttercup Bake Shop. And it had to be the vanilla with chocolate frosting. This was soo soothing to her. So when I went and saw their huge selection I was amused at all they had to offer. I can't wait to try their hummingbird cake. I tried their brookie and warmed with some ice cream (specifically cherry vanilla) it was soo good. This is a grab and go shop so there aren't any chairs available but that doesn't take away from the experience at all. It's narrow but packed with options to choose from and I'm looking forward to my next visit!

Sometime you just crave a cupcake!…read more Walking by this grab and go spot I peered in and saw they had Devil Dog cupcakes, a flavor blast from my childhood.

There were a few others walking by and they had a giggle too. Clever for sure. Really gets people looking. Once inside there were two men working. I think it was close to closing because they were wrapping things up. But, they were willing to help us place our order and get us situated. They were kind and helpful. I opted for a chocolate base cupcake, red velvet, and funfetti. Funfetti was my favorite! The cake was moist and the icing was nice and sugary. I prefer a sugary icing. The chocolate cupcake was rich in flavor. I absolutely loved the cupcakes. Simple with a little pizazz. The cost was about $4+ for each cupcake. I think that is on point and pretty reasonable. It is comparable to other bakeries in NY and other states. I'd definitely return to grab some more on my next trip.
