Stanwood Cupcakes

What a fantastic shop! They had a wide variety of ice cream flavors- we got the mint, huckleberry, and the coffee flavor. All were absolutely delish. We also indulged in some cupcakes to take home. So moist, fresh, and perfectly sweet. This is a delightful Stanwood gem- I can't wait to be back

Rebecca made amazing cocoa bombs that we were able to share with our clients and grave reviews. They were super cute and rich and yummy too. Thank you!!

UPDATE - last update was in 2018. This place has not improved. I'm certain the small town of Stanwood simply doesn't know any better. Try heading to Bellingham. There are several cupcakes shops and specialty bakeries. I visited Stanwood cupcakes three days ago - August 24 2022. What happened to all the icing on top? I can NOT believe you all stand for this. The price you pay for these cupcakes and they have a "Glob" on the top? Seriously people? At least in 2018 there was more product on top. I will say the gal working was adorably sweet. We liked her very much. My grandson settled on a cookie instead. Oh, if you eat outside which you pretty much have to, don't expect to throw your garbage away with ease. Theres NO garbage can. You have to walk down to the police station area to dump. Come on Stanwood cupcakes, you can't put a garbage can outside for your customers? Seriously?

Cupcakes are good but owner is toxic. She doesn't take any accountability for mistakes she makes. She puts the blame the clients. When I ordered specific colors for a cupcake they must have mixed my order with some one else's. When I drove back to return it the owner just acts snobby and like it wasn't her fault. How do you run a business like this? Take ownership, take accountability. Everyone makes mistakes but not everyone can put their pride and ego aside. Never coming here again!

I only went once when they first open and I ordered six different cupcakes and they were all very dry. So I never went back again for cupcakes. I've been tempted to go there for ice cream, but I just haven't gone back there. I hope your experience is different.

AMAZING! What a great job Rebecca did on our cakes!! I highly recommend using her for all of your cake needs! She is full of ideas and helpful tips! Thanks for all of your help!

Got an ice cream cake from here. - cake: was ok. The ice cream had a bit of a gummy/strange texture. The flavor was good. Overall, when compared to cold stone's ice cream cake I liked that we could customize our flavors/decorations and that it was less sweet but at 4X the cost, I probably wouldn't do again. Part of why we did it regardless though was there was not a clear place to get ice cream cakes in the area regardless as we were visiting camano island- communication: the woman taking the calls was really pleasant and seems to have genuine passion for what she does. A big plus and made me really want to support her business. Unfortunately, the communication was also a little difficult without response to confirmation of cake for over 24 hours via text messaging to the bakery's phone (which was their stated preferred mode of communication) or voicemail. Also, cake was not ready to go upon pickup. It was made (I think?) but perhaps not packaged? Whatever it was--husband reports they seemed surprised when he arrived late morning--presuming we were coming in afternoon and he had to wait 15-20 minutes for them to get it readyOverall--wouldn't get a custom cake again but if in area might stop by to get ready made stuff

Stopped in while out running errands and picked up 6 different cupcakes for my Wifes Birthday, we cut into 4ths about 6 hours after buying them so we could try each flavor. I have to say the frosting was pretty good however the cake part was extremely dry.

I ordered custom cupcakes with a Lorax theme for my daughters birthday. I asked for different colors and suggested a few design options. I was extremely disappointed when I arrived to pay $39 for white vanilla frosting and a paper cutout of the Lorax and chunky truffula trees made out of squished fondant. The cupcakes were very dry too. Overall this was a terrible experience and I should have just gone down to the grocery store to pay $10 for the same thing.

We had a very large wedding order that included the wedding cake, dozens of assorted cupcakes, dozens of macarons, and dozens of assorted cookies. I was told to pick up the order at 1:45. Rebecca was just finishing up some of the cupcakes but then helped carry most of the order to my car! She was very nice and helpful! She gave instructions on the wedding cake to make sure we got it to the venue safely. The wedding cake was beautiful. The assorted cupcakes were moist and very delicious! We had leftovers and were able to eat them for many days after. I want to say that the assorted macarons were absolutely amazing!!! I overheard several guests raving about them. My husband and daughter probably ate a dozen each just that night .
