My friend got her boyfriend the coconut cloud cake from Little cupcake bake shop recently. I had heard great things about this cake, and he is a huge lover of coconut. The cake was topped with a marshmallow meringue frosting, coconut, angel food-like cake, and coconut custard layered between. The cake was good, but I wouldn't call it great. The coconut custard in between was very minimal, almost as though it wasn't there. The cake itself was really nice and light, not dry, but definitely not moist. The frosting was a nice touch, I love meringue on cakes . If you like coconut cake, this would be a good place to start. But it leaves me curious about other coconut cakes around the city.

The best cake store in the city!! I had heard great things about this place on socials. The cutest store with loads of great merchandise. But the cakes. I cannot even. Best chocolate cake in America is absolutely deserved. Can see why a lot of celebrities choose this store and it is featured on TV 100/10. Wish I could come everyday.

A little bakery in a busy neighborhood with old-school diner vibes. We went on a Sunday morning and it was pretty empty. Just us and 6 staff behind the counter. They had a huge selection of cupcakes, cakes, etc. So it made it slightly difficult to pick. But I ended up picking a slice of their famous Blackout Brooklyn cake. According to food and wine, it's the best chocolate cake in the US. best chocolate cake? I wouldn't call it that. But it's alright. Maybe a notch better than the cakes you get a grocery stores. The frosting is overly sweet and a lot for the amount of cake you get. This helped mask the fact that the cake itself was a tad dry around the edges. But for $11, this cake should have been better. On a positive note, the cake had a good dark chocolate flavor. The seating area is fairly large and can accommodate smaller groups comfortably. But would I come back? Probably not. There are a ton of bakeries and restaurant in the neighborhood that are so much better.

We stopped by here on a whim, because I always have to look at cupcake shops, and boy am I glad I did. Tried a Brooklyn Blackout cupcake, and it was absolutely heavenly. Really moist and dark chocolatey, with killer frosting (and plenty of it). Wife got a mocha, which was excellent as well. The shop is really cute, and it was very pleasant to hang around while enjoying our treats, but they do ask kindly that people not linger for an excessive amount of time -- so don't think about camping out at a table and spending a whole afternoon doing work. Service was warm and friendly. Great place to go if you want to indulge yourself in something sweet!

I have lived in the Nolita area for years and this is the best dessert spot by far. P.S. little known fact that they are also open in the morning and have GREAT coffee and some solid breakfast items like sweet and savory croissants!Their fall seasonal pumpkin spice cupcake is my favorite dessert of all time. The dreaming princess cake is my go-to (so underrated), and my fiancé’s favorite is the banana nutella cake. Don’t be intimidated by the line— it moves quick. I would say it’s pretty cramped to eat in there usually so recommend taking to-go and eating back at your home or hotel.

Cute little bakery we stopped in while shopping in the area. They have a ton of options, so if you have a sweet tooth like myself, you'll definitely find something to your liking. My friend and I each got a cupcake, and we also split one. I got the cookie dough, which was delicious! She got some kind of triple chocolate cupcake, which she also really enjoyed. We split the carrot cake cupcake, but neither of us really liked it. The cake itself tasted a bit too dry. I would come back though to try some of the other bakery items.

I got two cupcakes. The strawberry shortcake was delicious. The red velvet was terrible. It's definitely not red velvet. It's just vanilla dyed red. And it had absolutely no flavor. Like less flavor than a vanilla cupcake would have. It was so disappointing. However, staff were very friendly.
