Sugar Sweet Sunshine Bakery

I had the red velvet cupcake which was very dry, however, they have the perfect level of sweetness. In most shops the icing is like eating straight corn syrup but not here.

Made a really gorgeous custom vegan birthday cake for my friend. I would never have known it was vegan from tasting it - it was amazing. It was hit with everyone. (We added the candles.)

Cupcakes were fresh and moist but the flavors were underwhelming. Lemon barely had any lemon to it, pistachios was very obviously artificial extract, red velvet had a bland frosting. German chocolate had the best flavor but was the one cupcake that was over baked. Overall meh

I am so happy I stumbled upon this wonderful bakery at least ten years ago. While I lived in the City, I trekked down to the Lower East Side often just to get what I consider the best cupcake in NYC: Sugar Sweet Sunshine's spicy pumpkin. The bakery is appropriately named, as it fills you with happiness and the food equivalent of sunshine. The cupcakes - unlike most of the famous ones in the City - will remind you of the ones that moms used to make for birthday parties while we were all in primary school. The women who own this spot are true gems, and I'm so happy to see it still thriving. Go support it, and you will not be disappointed.

Sugar Sweet Sunshine bakery was amazing! I asked for a custom chocolate chip cake with a 48 hour turnaround and staff was very kind and accommodating. The cake was delicious and beautifully decorated. Highly recommend buying a cake from here for a party!

Why pay $7 when you can $3.50 for a delicious cupcake! The cookies are tasty as well. Best value for a sweet little snack on this side of town.

Ran over to this bakery for some sweet treats just before they closed. I’ve been dying to taste the pistachio cupcakes and pound cake. I ended up ordering 2 pistachio cupcakes and 1 lemon cupcake ( they were closing and didn’t have enough time to decide). Upon tasting all the cupcake I will say I thought it was all just OK. Good but just ok. I didn’t like the sprinkles and glitter added to each of the cupcakes and I wasn’t a fan of what tasted like marshmallow icing on the pistachio cupcakes. Now the lemon cupcake was great. More my cupcake speed minus the sprinkle and glitter. I can definitely go for another lemon cupcake sometime in the future. There is a pudding refrigerator in the back with really nice layers of flavor that I’d love to try on another visit . The bakery doesn’t have a lot of seating and the staff are really nice. The pricing is also reasonable for the city. I will try to return soon.

Mediocre at best. I don't understand the why this place has good reviews. the cupcakes were dry. the chocolate frosting with almond, tasted very strong in extract, too much alcohol. There are other establishments that are way better and have more variety.
