Gigi's Cupcakes Bee Cave

Ridiculous ….birthday cakes require two weeks notice and they said couldn’t doin two days … so I said never mind and he put me on hold and came back and said we could do it for $35 rush fee… on top of a 6 inch cake is already $80😳

EDITED BASED ON OWNER RESPONSE:

Didn’t like the new recipe for the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and the Strawberry also seemed much sweeter and less flavorful. The owner responded promptly with an explanation and a plan for improvement. Looking forward to giving them another chance as they used to be our favorite special treat!

Previous review: “Used to love them but the recipes have changed substantially for the worse. Not sure if it’s due to cost cutting or what but they are no longer anything special—just way too sweet now without the burst of flavor and great texture. The Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough in particular used to be outstanding, rich and delicious with that salt sweet brown sugar taste of CCD and is now just a yellow cake with mediocre chips and blah icing.
So disappointing”

Really tasty and well balanced cupcakes! The frosting is sweet but not overly so. The cake is dense and perfect for balancing out the quantity of frosting. Tried a couple different flavors 🧁

Only con was that you’re unable to customize anything under a dozen mini cupcakes. Would be super neat if the 4 pack was customizable but the top 4 were still delicious.

Amazing!!. I have order cakes and cup cakes from Gigi's before and they have always been delicious and super cute decorations. My son turn 1 this past month and I have to say this was the best cake I have gotten from them. I was very detailed on what I wanted and they made me the perfect cake. I wanted a Ms. Rachel cake but it coupdnt be girly because it was for a boy, i didnt want it too sweet because it was for a 1 yr old, the picture of Ms. Rachel had to be in the middle but not too big because I wanted to say happy birthday Alexander around it and I also wanted a 1 somewhere because he was turning 1. I completely loved it, they got every detail. It was a hard request but they sure made it work. I recomend them anytime ☺️. Amazing work.

We were on a road trip and luckily found this Gigi’s cupcakes in Austin. We have loved their products for many years and will continue to return. The flavor, freshness and presentation were right on par for what we have come to expect there.

The service however, left a lot to be desired. First, the large teen or just thereafter seemed like we woke him when we walked up to the counter. Our first question for him was “Can we still buy a dozen?” His slow response was…. “They are $5 dollars each!” We were not phased and about 30 delayed seconds later he replied again with, “That’s $60”. While I commend him on the math, the customer service aspect left plenty to desire. We went past our 12 we asked about and left with 13. He didn’t offer any other quick math, just rung us up and we weee off to Houston to share these delicious treats with our family.

We will be back to that location. I just hope the young person gets the proper training that he should.

Love Gigi’s cupcakes. Wish there was one actually in Austin because the drive to Bee Cave is forever away from me. Off course maybe that’s a good thing so I don’t go there too often

First of all they don't take cash. So they can track you. Second of they should call it Gigi's Overprices Frosting. It was disgusting. If I wanted a mound of frosting I could buy a 16oz, can of frosting at the store for $2 bucks.

Hands down the best cupcakes!

Really unsure why the hours are so abysmal. I would love to have a cupcake on my way home from work. I pass here 6:20p everyday but they aren’t open early enough or late enough to stop by. 🤷🤷🤷

Great product and service

One of the best cupcakes in the Austin area! They offer a great variety of flavors, and the prices are very reasonable. The small dine-in area is a nice touch, allowing you to enjoy your cupcake fresh.They have gluten free option.

Highly recommended!

Great product the store is usually stocked Great atmosphere great location I highly recommend you try this place at least once and share the information .. I tried to buy some merchandise to wear to do free advertisement to support the business because I met one of the owners before and I want to do my part in helping them stay around even longer I would promote something that I did not like , every cup cake that they offer is delicious

Gigi's Cupcakes are among the best I've ever tried! My only suggestion is to have more cupcake and a bit less filling.
