Great place to get a cupcake and then eat in the park near by. Cute spot!Posted on Google L FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This place is incredible! Stephanie helped me with my 5 dozen mini cupcake order for my son’s first birthday. I was able to share with her a few inspiration photos for our golf themed “hole in one” birthday party. She was super helpful, kind and created a beautiful pull a part cupcake cake that everyone was amazed by! The cupcakes were delicious, and we were able to store them in the fridge as we picked them up a day early before the party. Stephanie was even so kind as to help bring them out to my car during pick up. I was definitely nervous trying a new shop for such a special occasion but I’ve had enough poor experiences with our usual “nothing Bundt cakes” and wanted to try something new. So glad I made that decision, and I can’t wait to come back and have them make another fun and special treat for us soon!!
