Very poor management
I will never come back again
I dropped my ice cream & the employee told me that I had to pay for another one
She did not even offer to replace it
Manager never responded
Manager name not listed for customer to contact
This seems like a scam kind of bakery shop
And they said it’s a Christian based bakery
I doubt it
Christians don’t act like that‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
I have purchased cupcakes several times since they have opened. The cupcakes were good every time except yesterday. I'm not sure what but the taste was off on all 4 I brought. The red velvet the, 2 yellow cake chocolate frosting, decadent chocolate. It's either too much baking powder or something was missing. I hope the next batch is better going forward.

Best cupcake bakery I've tried in the area. Some of the others the overall sweetness is just overwhelming and one note. Smallcakes are much more balanced, plus they have great flavors and the cake texture is wonderful. Service is always friendly. As a bonus, they also have pupcakes I can bring home for my pooch!

BLUF: I do not recommend the cupcakes.
The staff is very nice, the decor is very pink.
The cupcakes are disappointing. The cake part itself in most varieties is OK. The icing is overly sweet.
This is not the cupcake where the sugary icing balances the cake part, it absolutely overpowers the cake part.
I had my kids and husband try the cupcakes as well and they all thought they were overly sweet and wouldn't want them again. The semi-good news is that the cupcakes are so sweet you will probably only be able to eat one because the sugar content in the icing is so high. So if you're on a food lifestyle change then one cupcake may last you 4 weeks if you cut it into quarters.
The cupcakes we tried:
German Chocolate - for some reason this has chocolate AND coconut icing, it's VERY sweet, too sweet.
Raspberry Cheesecake (some cheesecake flavor)
Strawberry
Red Velvet
Oreo
Carrot Cake - this one specifically doesn't have enough carrot taste.
Bottomline: I do not recommend the cupcakes.

I love their cupcakes, however the mini’s are overpriced. The young lady told me the price for the minis are half the price of a regular cupcake, since the minis amount to a half cupcake. It doesn’t….these minis amount to 1/4 of a cupcake. I’ll take the “L” this time, but never again will I pay $12 for 6 minis.

Their bakery is very good but please diabetics be careful as the regular latte is very sweet.
Desserts are tasty but not out of this world good. We’ve gotten cupcakes here in the past when they run promos. Biggest issue for us continues to be the price. They now offer ice cream sandwiches and had a coupon for BOGO on them. No price on the menu board yet (or for cookies)…they’re $9.99. Thank goodness for the coupon.
There is no seating inside or outside if you want to eat your ice cream sandwich or $5 scoop of ice cream here.

Good stuff but they charged me extra 50 cents because I asked them if I could have an extra box for my cupcake (I had not told them that I wanted each one of my 2 cupcakes separately and they had put them in a box for two).
It's bad business practice when you lose a customer for 50 cents.

Bought 2 cupcakes, the salted caramel was dry, and the pretzel on top was stale. The strawberry one was better.

Smallcake in Columbia is a top-tier bakery. I was greeted as soon as I walked in. They offer a variety of cupcakes and other delicious treats. I highly recommend this bakery if you're in for some special treats. Their customer service is top-notch. Visited on June 8, 2025.
Wonderful flavors and very helpful servers.
Nice owner and moist af cupcakes.
Good vibe and tons of delicious flavors. Kids loved the ice cream.
