Giving stars because the shop looks nice and the workers were decently understanding when I expressed my concerns about their brownies. The cupcakes and brownies are very overrated and too sweet. They look delicious but the taste doesn’t match up unfortunately. Everything is overpriced for a mid cupcake. The rice Krispie treats may be the best thing there though! Overall, I wouldn’t come back

I have only ever tried the cheesecakes here. I tried the blueberry, Nutella and classic. All were delicious. The price is a bit high but it is not so easy to find great cheesecake so I think it is still worth it. I have not tried the cupcakes or layer cakes, but those look amazing as well.

I came here with a group of 5 as tourists on a hot summer afternoon - looking to have something sweet, escape the heat, and make use of a restroom. Sounds like most tourists, right? The pastries we got were good but on the “too sweet” side. Prices are on the high side but it’s New York, so that’s expected. The down side is that they don’t have a restroom, and as a nice touch I would suggest they have a water jug with small plastic cups for self service. It would go a long way with customers specially after eating such sweet treats!

$5 + tax + CC surcharge for one dry cupcake. What a steal…. The people working here are very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful though. They *did* let me know there’d be a CC surcharge before I proceeded. But they sadly can’t make up for dry cupcakes. Heartbreaking, as they look so cute and tasty. 😢

Alliston (sorry if I butchered that) gives amazing service and food recommendations when I visit. He is such a nice guy and truly deserves to get the recognition he deserves.

Best cupcakes. NY Cheesecake is unbelievable. Yes, I ate both. Super cozy café and nice and friendly staff too.

I happened upon a charming little cupcake shop whose décor exuded warmth and whimsy. Naturally, I was drawn in. I sampled their Brooklyn Blackout cupcake, which, while visually appealing, ultimately fell short of expectation. The frosting was light and pleasantly sweet, yet the cake itself lacked depth and suffered from a rather dry texture. It was a decent offering, though not memorable. I’ll likely explore other options in the future.

So if you plan to grab&go, they have great stuff. If you plan to sit? Forget it, unless you want to be frustrated or fight. They allow Table-Campers and also Table-Jumping. There were three tables of people that clearly finished their stuff a while ago, just sitting and yapping. Then, people that came in after me and just happened to be near a table where the people finally got up, jumped it. So if you think you're going to sit and enjoy, just pass on by and go somewhere else. When are placed like this gonna learn? How much business are they losing because of this? I've got no reason now to go back.
We just got drinks Friendly and very chatty We got hot chocolate And ice coffee
Sat and watched them bake cakes Fresh everyday
It's worth a visit

Okay, so first let me say-I love to bake, and especially love cake. I will be the first to admit I have painfully high standards- for example, I made my own wedding cake because I couldn’t find one I liked from any bakeries 🫠 I’ve been wanting to make Brooklyn Blackout cake but had never had it myself and needed to sample before trying to bake one at home. After reading opinions on Reddit for the best Brooklyn Blackout Cake in the city, I decided to try little cupcake, and it did not disappoint!! The cake was rich but not overly sweet, had a nice crumb, and the icing was creamy without being too dense. The shop itself is really cute with neon signs and has a decent amount of space. I didn’t try anything else (this was for research after all 😉) but the other cakes and sweets looked just as good. Would recommend!!
