This is such a lovely place! We were visiting a friend and stopped in to buy gluten free cupcakes for her. We were delighted to have a location in Appleton to go to, rather than Oshkosh which would have been a bit out of the way. It's a cheerful, clean establishment, the people who work there are so friendly and helpful. We bought a Bavarian cream cupcake and a hot fudge sundae cupcake, both from their gluten free section. We will definitely stop in again, and next time we'll get treats for ourselves too! The lemon dream cupcakes and individual cheesecakes looked particularly amazing!

Always so good. The ‘lick the bowl’ bar or cupcake are to die for. We got a custom ordered fancy chocolate cake of some sort before (cant remember the exact flavor) but so yummy and beautifully decorated. They even have dog treats!!

I'm so sad to say that I wasn't a fan of my cupcakes. They looked beautiful, and I had such high hopes. The "strawberry" filling tasted like cherry cough syrup. It was the farthest thing from any strawberry cake topping I've ever had. The sprinkles were so weird. The pink sphere sprinkles dissolved in the frosting, but the white spheres were so rock hard that they could have broken a tooth. The champagne cake was more sour than I expected having loved other champagne cakes in the past, but the texture was nice and light. The service was wonderful and I'm sure they have better items, I was just bummed to pay such a high price for cupcakes that ultimately didn't get eaten. Only 1 person out of our 9 person gathering enjoyed them.

Cute cupcakes, but that’s about it. Very dry, taste like box cake and store bought frosting. Very disappointed.

Had the Cake Guru cater cupcakes for our wedding and 3 years later my family, my wife's family, and my wife's coworkers STILL talk about these dang cupcakes! This is no exaggeration and I cannot recommend their cupcakes more.

Such good cupcakes and so many options! Being gluten free, I finally have a place that carries multiple delicious choices!! You guys rock!

Absolutely loved our cake and matching cupcakes! and it was beyond delicious. I was a bit taken back by the cost at first but 100% worth it. Will be going back for all of my kiddos birthdays!

Ordered a cake for my kids Golden Birthday. Turned out great. We gave them an idea of what we wanted and they blew it out of the park.

We ordered a three tier wedding cake from them last year and one of the tiers was supposed to be amaretto flavor, but was instead just regular white cake. The other two flavors were fine. Despite that, we decided to get our anniversary cake done by them since the cake was good and it wasn't a huge mess up. We ordered an amaretto flavor cake and were excited to eat it. When we went to eat it, we both discovered it was lemon flavored. We brought the cake back in to get it refunded. It really seemed like they were reluctant to give us our money back. They tried the cake (yeah, tried it right in front of us), claimed they couldn't tell what it tasted like, and had lots of issues trying to give us our money back. What should have taken a couple minutes took a lot longer than that just to get the money back on the card. I would not recommend this place to anyone for any reason.

This was an amazing experience! I inquired online and received a prompt response even though it was after-hours. This cheesecake was for a birthday and exceeded all expectations! It was exceptionally decorated with a celebratory flair. The crust was perfect, not too sweet and hearty enough to hold the creamy, decadent filling. It was a flavor explosion!

Ordered 100 cupcakes for my wedding. 4 different flavors. They were each amazing and received so many compliments at my wedding. They snuck in and set up before I even knew they were there. 100% satisfied! They were even soooo kind to us after I dropped the ball and procrastinated. Pricing was also amazing and they kept in contact when they considered changing the frosting on our cake round that we cut. I cannot say enough good things about these amazing women! Thank you for playing a huge part in our wedding ❤️

Pretty low end compared to other fancy cupcake places. Cookies were good but a little stale, not much flavor in the middle stuffing in the cupcakes, you could clearly see where they were cut and stuffed, and it was really disappointing to find the cupcakes themselves even seemed stale. I ordered a bunch of stuff and most of it ended up in the trash. Won't be returning. What a waste of money.

My first visit.(the showcases had their lights off)“From your cupcakes to your cheesecake, it was awful.”Literally threw it in the garbage.It’s a waste of time leaving this review. Every dimension of your product is dry, mediocre and I literally verbalized how old is this (?), immediately discarding your cheesecake. All of that after paying for it, a subject all on its own.Never again.
