This order was placed on DoorDash online they have an ordering system made ordering easy. They had so many options to choose I was in heaven. Be aware that some of the cupcakes are seasonal and some are only available once a month. Vegan Strawberry Cake with Chocolate Frosting. 10/10 My daughter requested vegan cupcakes strawberry with chocolate frosting I bought a two cupcake container. I need these cupcakes to stay nice. This flavor is only available in October and the only vegan cupcake they sell. Everything arrived on time with a tamperproof seal and In good condition. Lemon Cupcake. 20/10 This cupcake was tender, moist and absolutely delicious. The buttercream was sweet but not too sweet. Very creamy with lemon notes. . They placed this cupcake in little holder and into a white big. It arrived perfectly. I only wish I had bought two lemon cupcakes. It was that good. They have a pup cupcake for dog as well. I will order two lemon cupcakes and a chocolate cupcake this weekend. I highly recommend that try Frosted . Until next time. Just me Shawn C.

Why have Holey Grail Donuts when you can have Frosted Cupcakery instead?!…read more Okay, that might be quite the low blow considering that Holey Grail Donuts recently closed for good here in Long Beach, but Frosted Cupcakery seems to have withstood the test of time for ~20 years. Possibly a testament to how good their cupcakes really are?! So I had a Fivestars reward for a free cupcake from Frosted Cupcakery, and since I was planning an afternoon getaway by the beach, I wanted to stop by to claim my free cupcake before expiry. Frosted Cupcakery is located in Belmont Shore two doors east of where Holey Grail Donuts used to be. If you're still not sure where that is, it's on 2nd St about a couple blocks east of the intersection with Livingston. They had a bunch of different flavors to choose from, but the Royal White Cookie Butter cupcake piqued my interest since it sounded like a winning combo that was hard to beat. I asked the employee to describe what it was, and once she said the words "Biscoff cookie", I was immediately sold! They had plenty of that flavor's cupcakes in stock, which kind of led me to believe it wasn't a popular flavor, but I still went with my gut instinct. The employee grabbed a Royal White Cookie Butter cupcake from the display case, placed said cupcake in a white paper bag, added a Frosted Cupcakery sticker on top, and handed it to me while wishing me a good day. I did ask her how long the cupcakes would last in the fridge, and she went to the back to ask a supervisor, giving me more time to peruse the available flavors shown in the display case. She came back shortly later to inform me that the cupcakes should remain good for about 2 to 3 days on the counter. On the way out, I also grabbed a Frosted Cupcakery card, which contains the contact info for the shop as well as the list of cupcake flavors, some of which are seasonal, gluten-free, or even vegan! The card also mentions that the cupcakes are handcrafted, likely with love. I spent a couple more hours chilling by the beach before going home to finally enjoy my cupcake. I noticed there was an unusually large see-through (grease?) spot on the side of the bag, which almost made me think it wasn't a cupcake inside the bag. When I took out the Royal White Cookie Butter cupcake from the bag, I noticed a divider between the frosting and the wrapper, which I thought was a nice touch to separate the two entities of the cupcake. However, I struggled a bit with removing the divider before taking my first bite, which was superb! The buttercream and cookie butter crumbles on top did make for a winning combo, and I wish the flavor could have been prevalent below the divider as well. However, even that flavor seemed to have dissipated after the first bite akin to an exponential decay. They have a few tables inside where you can enjoy your cupcakes with friends. However, take note of the fact that they only allow a maximum of 2 dozen cupcakes for walk-in customers; this is denoted by a sign on the display case. If you want more than 2 dozen, you'd have to place a special order, likely online, but I'm sure over the phone would work as well. Parking? Well, certainly not the easiest as it's in Belmont Shore. While there is a small parking lot directly behind the cupcake shop, I believe it's either paid parking or reserved for other businesses like Philz Coffee or F&M Bank. I had to find a spot on Livingston and walk over, which wasn't too far of a walk, but could be worse on the weekends. Overall, I liked the complimentary cupcake that I got courtesy of Fivestars, but I didn't think it was *that* good to warrant the 5th star from me. I do agree it's a great spot to order cupcakes from, especially if you're planning a day at the nearby beach!

The LBX location of SusieCakes is the best of them and I've definitely visited a great deal of…read moretheir locations, lol. This location is significantly further from me compared to the others, but the LBX SusieCakes team is a lot friendlier. If you've been to the other bakeries, you'll know what I'm talking about. Last week, I paid them a visit for my favorite time of the year and everyone's most anticipated collaboration, which is the See's Candies and SusieCakes collaboration for their Bordeaux Cupcakes! I swear I came in for only two of them, but when I found out I had a coupon for $10.00 off $15.00 minimum purchase, what am I supposed to do? Not use it? Naturally, I had no choice but to take five cupcakes home instead. Their red velvet cupcakes, red velvet cake slices, lemon cake slices, flourless chocolate cupcakes, and Susie's Nutty Bar are also pretty solid. Make sure you read their storage instructions for your specific baked good type! There's also a decent amount of parking all around the Hangar if you don't mind walking a bit. I've never had any issues finding a spot at any hour of the day. Plus there's lots of yummy restaurants to choose from, like Silverlake Ramen for example.

I highly recommend SusieCakes for anytime you want to buy a birthday cake or some cupcakes for a…read morespecial occasion. Honestly, if you want to get a slice of cake too, no one is stopping you from doing that either! We stopped by this location on the way to our friend's place to celebrate her birthday. Even though we arrived an hour before closing, they had all the cakes available, even as slices! We got the Vanilla Celebration Cake and the Carrot Cake (a slice each). We wanted to have options for the birthday girl. The employees were very pleasant and worked effortless. There was a steady pace of people coming in, so they were working well and making sure everyone got their items. Some people ordered in advanced, which is really helpful to make sure you get what you need. They also make sure to let you know how to serve the cakes, right on the boxes. It will say to serve it at room temperature or to serve it cold. Both our cakes were made with a buttercream topping, so both needed to be served at room temperature to make sure it's well-enjoyed. Both slices were beautifully made. I love the ratio of cake to buttercream, and it's not overly sweet. The Vanilla Celebration cake was a fan fav. If you like Carrot Cake, you have to try the one here as well! You can see the pieces of carrot in it and there's raisins too. A must visit spot for sure if you're looking for cake or cupcakes. I love it here!

Another thing was it was a pretty hot day and we were not offered inside seats. We sat outside in the front patio, there are no fans and we came out with many mosquito bites!!

It was a lil later during the evening so the baked goods weren't fresh out the oven. But still so good!! I ordered the Cinnamon roll and it was off the hook. Very good sweetness and the Cinnamon roll melted in my mouth!!! I'm happy the guy who worked there suggested that since it was my first time. The cookies look really good as well but I decided I'll try it another time l!! I will for sure come back! The only con is that they only take cash, so make sure to bring some! It's a section inside where you can sit and drink coffee and relax. Nice location and cool atmosphere for a bakery. Parking on streets and parking lots ! Marshay D.

So I was shocked they had a bunch of flavors still in stock, but no strawberry ones. When I asked the lovely staff (Sophia) she told me they usually have a couple different strawberry ones This place is a cute little local bakery. They have up close parking. I will be honest, the cupcakes were not my favorite, but maybe I didn't try the right flavors. They honestly tasted like they came from a store mix and store bought frosting I liked that they have a special cupcake of the day. Sophia told me the ones they had for the special were -s'mores And -blackberry pie I didn't try these, but they looked beautiful. They were nicely set up with their fall decorations They have a lot of flavors. They have regular size cupcakes And they have MINI cupcakes I will say, they were moist so that's a plus. Again, maybe I just did not try the right ones. I tried Coconut cupcake Vanilla cupcake Orange cupcake Brownie Banana pudding (I did pay a little over 20 dollars for the items, not including the tip. And I didn't finish the cupcakes. Only the brownie and banana pudding. Which, the banana pudding was watery and looked a couple days old. I did like that they have other things besides the cupcakes. The brownie was definitely the best thing here This place is on the smaller side. It's very shabby chic, which I like. The staff was friendly. I only saw and spoke to Sophia And I hate to say that I would not return based on their cupcakes

I am helping my sister plan her son's 5th birthday party so I asked this company their pricing with an example photo. It was a little outside of our budget so I asked if we can get any sort of discount in which they replied. That is totally okay to not budge on your price but with that being said it is my right to get quotes elsewhere. They were very pushy and took it upon themselves to double text and say 1) they won't do business with me 2) they won't provide me with quotes 3) and saying I should go to a cheaper bakery 4) telling me "good bye" Furthermore when they first sent me a text starting they will not provide me any more quotes I understood as I am sure to not get an order for me was frustrating. So I replied saying sorry and that it wasn't up to me as it wasn't my money. However them further sending me another text that I should find a "cheaper cake, goodbye, we don't want your business" was VERY CHILDISH. I thought it was extremely uncalled for. I looked at the other reviews and see rudeness is apart of their pattern. From 3 years ago up until 19 days ago. Do better and speak to people professionally!

But don't let that stop you. It's totally worth checking this place out. I was impressed by the Parklet seating in addition to the inside front. We were walked to the back and seated in the outside garden area. Tables are on small rocks, plants are pretty to look at -- it was a delightful ambience. There was one waiter serving ALL the tables, and to my surprise, he did a great job with such attention to detail. Overall, he was a delightful, professional waiter. The additional servers were so efficient, polite and on top of their game. We started with the flat bread: Wonderful crust, incredible roasted garlic paste with a habanero cheese that was not overpowering. Such a nice balance of flavor. The two of us devoured it. Enjoyed my peach Prosecco which appeared to be a Prosecco with peach nectar, perhaps? Not sure exactly, but it was very refreshing and not too sweet. The cioppino was out of this world! It's so hard to find a good cioppino in Long Beach. It had so much depth of flavor with a little hint of spice and the seafood was fresh! My partner wiped his bowl clean. My dish was the parpadelle in a lobster sauce. The pasta tasted homemade, the bits of lobster (about 6oz) were carried throughout the dish where I experienced a wonderful creamy lobster flavor in every bite. I usually take home what I don't finish, but I couldn't stop eating it. Lastly, Chocolate Spumoni ice cream bomb is a must to try. Priced well at $10. Great quality in this dessert all around. The Parmesan cheese wheel dish looked incredible as it was prepared table side next to us. That's going to be my go to when I return. This restaurant is a treasure for Italian food in Long Beach.

I decided to check the Resy app to try somewhere new besides the 3 restaurants across the street from me, and surprisingly found an opening at 7:45pm on a Saturday night! I walked there from my house so thankfully did not have to worry about parking. I felt completely comfortable from the moment I sat down. The atmosphere is warm and casual, there was live music and a lively group of people on the covered outdoor backyard. My server was lovely as well, attentive, but never felt rushed. Everything I ordered was delicious and perfectly paced. I started with the fried artichokes which I had never had before, but I love artichokes thanks to my Italian grandmother. So light and crispy. Then I had the caprese, what a stunning salad this is! The avocado was a bit random to me as I have never seen one with a caprese before and it was hard as a rock, but still ate the whole thing. I ordered the pasta alla routa Cacio E Pepe which I did not realize was $65 upon the time of ordering, but that's on me for not looking that closely. They told me ahead of time when it was coming out so I could video it being made inside the cheese wheel if I wanted since they couldn't come to me being that the backyard is covered in rocks. Thought this was nice since I paid so much for it, may as well be able to share the experience with others. I enjoyed two glasses of sangria with my dinner and finished with some pistachio gelato. All in all a great experience, I just wish the pasta was like $20 cheaper but lesson learned. I don't know that I would come here often since I spent $190 on dinner for myself, but I would come back for date night, or an anniversary, or a special occasion, and have already recommended since going.

They have the best red velvet cake I've ever had. It's so moist and sweet. Their German chocolate cake is not good though, and I didn't like it at all. The cake tasted chalky to me, and the coconut filling tasted off. I usually order to go because their dining area closes at 3 PM, but they continue taking to-go orders until 7 PM.

I love that they had interesting flavors and even seasonal flavors as well, such as hot cocoa. I tried their carrot and banana butterscotch with chocolate chip. Both were delicious but I liked the carrot one better. It even had raisins and pineapple in it I think. It was moist and the cream cheese frosting was yummy. The banana butterscotch one was good too but not as moist and the frosting was a little too sweet for my taste. But both were good. Besides bundt cakes of different sizes, they also had cookies and ice cream sandwiches. Lots more flavors too. I do want to come back and try their other flavors and cookies. I highly recommend if you are looking for al alternative Bundt cake spot in the area. Parking is easy since it is located in a strip mall and share a lot. It's a grab and go type of spot. Not really a place to sit and enjoy your treat.
