She said normally orders take her between 1-2 days to complete, but she was able to complete mine same day! She kept me informed of my order, when it was baking and when she started decorating. She made it easy to plan to get them. I couldn't believe how beautiful they were! You could taste the care. It wasn't some box-mix wannabe. It was moist and not too sweet to hurt your teeth. I love supporting small businesses. This will definitely be a go to for quality cupcakes.

Shyndigz came highly recommended so I knew I had to stop in on a recent trip to Richmond. Coincidentally the cake of the day was passionfruit, my fave flavor! I don't normally order GF but it was a smaller slice than the regular cake (which was way too much for me!) and I was assured they tasted the same. I can confirm it was an excellent slice of cake and if I hadn't seen the sign I wouldn't have even known it was GF! I only regret not bringing home more things to try, especially the bars which looked reallyyyy good.

Laura at the Buttercream Bee designed the wedding cake for my July 21st wedding. From the initial…read moreconsultation to delivery it was a PERFECT experience. Laura was great to work with designing a custom cake that was perfect for our wedding. She was flexible in having a cake with multiple flavors and making adjustments (like the request for fresh fruit in between each layer). The cake was beautiful, but what was even more amazing was that the cake tasted just as good as it looked. Guest after guest came up to us during the wedding and after the wedding to tell us it was the BEST CAKE THEY HAD EVER EATEN IN THEIR LIVES. Not just the best wedding cake, but the best cake EVER. When you factor it taste, beauty, and price I don't think there is ANY better baker in the city of Richmond. I give The Buttercream Bee my highest recommendation. You will NOT be disappointed, give Laura a call for the cake of your dreams!

It was brusque but mostly not overtly rude, perhaps they were just busy getting ready. I ordered the charcuterie board ($28), a chicken salad croissant sandwich ($14), and the Lavender Bees Knees ($8). The drink was very pretty but not super flavorful. The chicken salad was good enough, but I think the croissant alone would have been wonderful. The charcuterie board had a substitutions I was not made aware of upon ordering (no pepper jelly, blanched almonds instead of candied pecans, and a green onion mixed type goat cheese with bacon in it instead of maple bacon goat cheese). They did add little pickles and the presentation was pretty enough, but no flowers like the owner posted photo on here. The meat was pretty thick which could be a positive or negative depending on personal preference, and the meat was decent quality. The fig jam was very good. The waitress who was helping the other tables had brought my food out but didn't check on me at all. I had to go up to the counter again to order a cinnamon roll ($8) and a coffee ($5) which she brought out to me. The coffee was nice and dark (Cameo blend) and incredibly hot. The cinnamon roll was okay, not very much cinnamon flavor but it was delicate and the icing was decent. The interior was pretty and it was a good spot to read a book and spend a morning.
