These cupcakes are seriously delicious! I've tried lots of options over the years and have loved them all. Layers buttercream icing is absolute perfection, so light and fluffy!!There are cupcakes for sale in store but I highly recommend ordering in advance to avoid disappointment. Otherwise try to go early in the day to make sure you get what you want.They have a core menu of cupcakes and some weekly features. The weekly feature are available on their Facebook page.

The best cakes and cupcakes ever. The holiday cupcakes are always delicious. I just got the mini egg cake for Easter, and it is the best cake I have ever eaten. Seriously, this place is the best!
I’ll start off saying that the cupcakes are very prettily decorated and make a great gift! But I feel like the quality has gone down over the years compared to the sharply rising costs. The last 3 times I’ve been there, the cupcakes seem like they’re a little dry and harder compared to how fluffy they used to be. The flavours were also very mild (though eating at room temperature is when they’re best), but it would be great to have more flavour as they otherwise just taste sugary. I hope they continue to do well though, as they still get lots of preorders which is great. And the staff are all absolutely lovely!

Have had various varieties here over the years and all are very tasty. They are a good medium sized cupcake with semi-dense icing, so one definitely satisfies per snack time. Today I received some and inhaled one immediately, the "Rose" with light pink icing done in a rose design on a vanilla cupcake. Will have to start picking some up again to remember the other flavors. Also, have always been intrigued to try a birthday cake from here.

We happened to be walking by last evening and they were giving away the remainder of the day’s cupcakes. My husband and I both had a chocolate cupcake with marshmallow filling and chocolate icing, topped with a rice krispie square. They were amazing! I’m not normally a fan of chocolate cake, but there were moist and flavorful, and the filling and icing were rich but not overly sweet. We will definitely be back!!

Best cupcakes I've ever had. Will definitely be making a stop next time I'm in Halifax.
Tried this place while visiting Halifax. The cupcakes are excellent, with the most delicious icing! They have some interesting flavours, which keeps things fun. Also, the cookies are some of the best I've ever had. Highly recommend.

Stopped in Halifax during a cruise in August 2023. We like to go to local bakeries when we make cruise stops. Came across this wonderful bakery. The cookies, specifically the toffee and triple chocolate were the BEST cookies we've ever tasted. Tastes homemade and truly delectable. Highly recommend.
