Ugh, stop it!!! They have a cupcake flight now. There was a display out that said you needed to preorder but they had an extra one on hand and of course I had to have it! 12 delightful little 2 bite cupcakes... yes please!This has been my favorite cupcake place since we moved to the springs. I brought a box to meet friends at a brewery a few weeks ago and they were a huge hit with my friends and everyone that walked by! Not only eye catchingly (making that a word) gorgeous, they're melt in your mouth sweet and delicious! They always have a great selection available and even little pupcakes that my dogs love. Tons of parking always available and the staff is so inviting and energetic! Highly recommend if you have a sweet tooth

After deciding we needed dessert one weekend afternoon, I began looking for locations who had cupcakes, close to us. After finding Smallcakes & looking at their Signature Flavors list, we set out!! It's in a very easy to get to location, right off N. Academy. There were a few tables occupied & a gentleman ordering at the counter. Very cute place & it smelled very good. I looked at the cupcakes on display & was very excited to try them. After ordering, the lady boxed the cupcakes in a beautiful, pink box, & told me to have a nice day.I decided to dig into my cupcake very soon after arriving home. It was beautiful & I needed to know how it tasted. I cut it into quarters & dove in!! The frosting texture was definitely creamy & fairly dense, which I liked. The sweetness off the frosting was the next aspect that pulled forefront quickly. It was super sweet. The chocolate cake was quite moist, which was great, but I felt as though the chocolate flavor was lacking. What I couldn't decide, was if it was simply the sweetness of the frosting drowning out the flavor of the cake. I took the other 3/4 & placed it back in the box for later. Once my husband cut into his, I tried that one & the frosting wasn't quite as sweet. The yellow cake again was moist, but no real flavor to speak of that stood out. In conclusion, they were not bad, they were a moist cupcake that was beautiful & had a nice amount of frosting. For me, I felt that a cupcake for $4.95 should have offered a little more. I would definitely be willing to pop in & try another flavor. Will definitely update if I do!!

The staff was fantastic. We were visiting from out of town, living in FL and up for a wedding and birthday. We ordered the smallcakes for the Birthday, and they were a hit! We recommend them for all your cupcake needs!

I placed a delivery order and it was delivered super fast.Cupcakes were packaged nicely in a sweet, sturdy box.Cupcakes aren't cheap, about $4.25 a piece, but they are pretty big and super tasty.I definitely enjoyed the choices we made, and would highly recommend the salt caramel cupcake. It was sweet but not overpowering and it was super moist.I'm not a fan of chocolate cake but theirs is pretty good.The frosting on the pink cupcake was a little too sweet for me.. so next time I will skip that flavor and order a new one instead. The cookies and cream flavor looked interesting. We will be ordering again from them soon !

I was in the mood for dessert, so I ordered via DoorDash from Smallcakes Cupcakery. The cupcakes and ice cream are outstanding! It's deceiving when you first look at the cupcakes, they appear to have very little frosting. The reason for having a smaller portion of frosting, is the frosting is so rich and delicious, you only need a small amount. They do an excellent job combining flavor and texture in their cupcakes. Arguably, these are some of the best cupcakes I have ever eaten. Also, I ordered what I thought was a cupcake and ice cream mix, but it was actually a milkshake. The milkshake was so thick and delicious I had to share it with my son, we both can barely drink the milkshake. If you're in the mood for dessert or like a thick milkshake, this dessert shop is unmatched. I highly recommend trying Smallcakes Cupcakery.

Service was fantastic and friendly. Selection was mediocre at best. Cupcakes were dry, over baked and maybe not baked that day. My dog loved the pup cake. It seemed very clean.

Truly some of the best - if not THE best - cupcakes in Colorado Springs. The staff is super friendly and you can get gluten-free and dairy-free cupcakes, along with regular ones, any day of the week.My personality favorite is the Choc-a-holic, but the Chocolate Cream is really good as well. There are still many I haven't had, but you can be sure I'll be back to try them all :)

Stopped by before they were closing around 7:45 PM. Maybe the cupcakes were already sitting out all day, they were dry. We won't be going back. We were hoping a much better cupcakes for the price! This was our second trip. Our first trip was during the day. The cupcakes then weren't worth the $4 either. We were giving it another try, since we needed some cupcakes for someone's birthday. It was a waste of money.

Respectfully, I would not place an order for an event unless it's the for cupcakes. I was very specific and even sent reference photos of the cake I was hoping for. I placed the order over 2 weeks in advance and stated I wanted rainbow colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple) I stated I would be putting a topper on the cake and they had suggested writing the "happy birthday" on the side of the cake. The cake itself was 85$ plus an up charge of 10$ for decorating and then the cost of the 2 cupcakes. All together I paid 120$ not including the tip. I came to pick up the cake the day before my twins first birthday and when I was shown the cake I immediately had a pit in my stomach because it was nothing like the reference photos I had sent. The colors were almost of monsters inc. and nothing like a rainbow. I was also horrified by the giant, poorly written happy birthday covering over 50% of the side of the cake in a color that I felt was wildly inappropriate for the colors they chose. But, unfortunately I did not speak up in that moment like I should have. I felt the pressure of time and the laundry list of things I still needed to accomplish prior to the birthday the following day. So I left feeling insecure about the cake and quite honestly angry with myself for being so passive. Once I got home I placed the cupcakes and cake in the fridge. When I took the cake out the next day and went to take it out of its "cake box" (it's a donut box) I saw that all of the piping was smashed and the side of the cake was falling. At this point I took pictures as it was so infuriating to see this the day of. Later, after the party started a guest came to me and informed me that the side of cake had fallen off. I had called today (7/19) as family had left 7/18 and I wanted to wait to address this once plate was a little less full. I called and spoke with the manager who listened to my concerns respectfully and offered a 25$ gift card. When I explained that I did not feel that this was an adequate resolution she stated that because it had been so long since the order was received (even tho I could provide time stamped photos) there was nothing more she could offer. And that the cupcakes were at fault to myself as they had fallen during transportation. I let the manager know that I would be posting an honest review with photos. At this point she clearly being irritated stating she would not be providing any type of reimbursement as I would be "slandering the company", which I do not feel I have done in this review. The cake itself was delicious and I appreciated her offer but felt that for the amount of money I spent and for both of my purchases to be ruined due to improper packaging and on the day of my twins first birthday, $25 was not a good offer. I am not going to place blame on the look of the cake as I passively said "it's great" because who wants to tell someone their cake looks bad to their face. But that's on me and a lesson I learned. I am ok with not being reimbursed if it means saving someone else in the future from making the same mistakes I did. And I truly hope that small cakes can understand this isn't me slandering their company (because truly your cake is delicious) but maybe find better packaging so this doesn't happen in the future and being more attentive to your customers requests and reference photos.
