Kristi G’s Cupcakes

My then fiancé and I were planning a small wedding and stopped by to see Christi. She did an AMAZING job. The carrot cake was phenomenal. We wanted our cupcakes simple and she put just enough flair to the icing to stick with our simple and elegant theme. she was a delight to work with, and we would gladly see her again.

This place has the driest cupcakes. they are not good at all! The cupcake taste as if it was baked a dew dats before… never will I go back!

really cant see how i can write any review but an unhappy one. a few years a ago i was looking for a local baker to make my sons birthday cupcakes. i called several times and emailed as well. leaving my name, contact info and request. NEVER HEARD A PEEP! apparently my business wasnt needed. so why the review now? last month was my husbands birthday. he wanted an all chocolate cake. after calling several bakeries (didnt want a store cake like walmart) we found that kristi g’s had one. we payed over the phone. i even asked if it was ALL chocolate. got there to pick up and was shown the cake. a plain round three layered «chocolate fudge cake» as i was told. the top had no decoration or garnish… wouldve been nice to know before i ate some that the cake had BACON inside! I DONT EAT MEAT!!! this was the most horrific cake experience i have ever had. called immediately as we all were sick to think of it. the girl at the store was clueless. she told me she would call the owner aka kristi and have her call me immediately. after waiting by the phone for an hour and realizing nobody was calling i trashed the disgusting cake. i will say that the cake was dry. the icing was weird. it was chocolate but tasted bland. seriously. wasnt sweet. wasnt chocolatey but instead was bland and tasteless. the following day I CALLED and a man answered. i explained my problem his response «oh yea i heard about u already. u can talk to kristi»
thanks?
she explained the cake was from a baking expo or something and was left over from that. she explained she never informed the staff the cake had meat and knew this! also knew that it wasnt labeled right! so u are in the food industry admitting to NOT LABELING FOOD OR ADVERTISING PROPERLY?! hmmmmm good thing i record all my phone calls. she offered a refund (we took) but no replacement cake even tho i told her it was a birthday cake. and didnt really care that i dont eat meat and because of their illegal non existent food labeling i had consumed some. some ppl have serious reactions to certain foods. still considering my options. please be advised. u dont know what u are eating and neither does the staff.

I went into this location and order Cupcakes and Cookies for an upcoming baby show I 2 Dozens of Cupcakes and 2 ½ down of Cookies. The Cookies were suppose to be decorated with different kind of baby things I pick white cookies with I advised the owner Kristie that’s I was have someone else pick up the order. When I got the order I noticed that part of my order was different from what I actually ordered, some if my cookies were really dark brown so I called the establishment spoke with the owner and she stated they are baby faces I said why are they dark brown she stated «Well I was trying to match your flesh color». I paused and said excuse me why would you make little black baby faces she stated I was trying to give you what you wanted I said well ma’am I picked out cookies with white decoration because it was a pink blue and white baby shower she stated «Well I thought is was your culture» I am very upset with the statements they were made to me. She ask me why I was so upset because she didn’t understand i adv first this is not what I ordered and also the things that’s you just stated. I was so upset I begin to Cry because I just Could Believe that this had just Happen to me

I’ve read the positive reviews and they must be for a different place. The dry carrot cake and pancakes and bacon cupcakes tasted like they were a day old. Perhaps the cupcakes are not baked at the store. I wanted to like them but they just weren’t good.

I ordered these for our company today. Everyone loved them and couldn’t stop talking about it. Thank you for the great cupcakes!

The cakes are very moist and delicious! My family and I have ordered from Kristi G’s a couple times now and are happily satisfied with the quality, consistency and taste!!! We will continue to give Kristi G’s our business anytime we need an amazing cake (or cupcakes).

I had the pleasure of getting a gender reveal cake made from here for a large party that I had. I have never had there cupcakes however, the cake itself is easily one of the best I ever had. The decorations and quality of the cake was outstanding! It looked like something you would see on tv. Not only was the cake fantastic but Kristi is a wonderful person to work with, she let me pick up my cake way before they even opened the store, she didn’t have to do that and it’s hard to find people these days who will go out of there way to make it easier on someone else. I highly recommend this place and I will be going back next time I need some type of cake/​cupcakes!

Really great cupcakes. Must get is the dulce De leche! Love the caramel in the middle. All of her cupcakes are just the right moistness. They aren’t dry like most places. She has a variety of flavors. She also has a maple bacon cupcake is also sweet and savory. I always get a carrot cake cupcake for the hubs. He is very particular about his carrot cake but enjoys Kristi G’s cupcakes! She also offers classes for the kiddos!

I really do not understand what all of the negative reviews are about. First of all, the service at Kristi G’s is OUTSTANDING! I have always been greeted with a smile and warm welcome… every person I have ever encountered there has been so very sweet and helpful to explain their products and answer any questions. My first experience was on a day they were swamped with customers, had two people working the front counter, the owner was teaching a class and multiple people still managed to address each person that was waiting to assure us someone would be with us ASAP.
The products I have tried are really good too! I’ve been to many cupcake shops all over the country, had cupcakes and cakes from both mom & pop shops as well as chains and Kristi G’s ranks up there with my top faves! Thus far, I have only had the cupcakes there, of which I’ve tried the strawberry (was very moist and delicate and delicious), the orangeyagladtoseeme, think dreamscicle… yum!, which I crave still, the red velvet, that I would rank closely with the red velvet from «nothing bundt cakes» red velvet if only Kristi G’s added chocolate chips in, the carrot cake, which was so moist and absolutely divine! The only one I found to be a tad lacking was the chocolate and I chalked that up to I’m not a chocolate cake fan.
With all that being said, I just ordered my daughters birthday cake there today (at a great price of $ 75 in comparison to other bakeries for a custom bday cake at $ 100 or more) because I have had so many positive experiences there. I expect it will be wonderful just like everything else I have had there. I will update this review to include our experience with their birthday cake and will include a picture of the cake for anyone who is curious.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK KRISTI G’S!

We’ve had this place make cupcakes and custom cakes for 2 different birthday parties and I am extremely happy with everything they’ve ever done for us. The cakes are always more beautiful than I envisioned and the taste/​quality is amazing. I’ll never buy a birthday cake from anywhere else, all of their flavors are amazing and they’ve always been great at communicating and providing us with exactly what we want. The prices are very fair considering the high quality of work that they do. This is THE place to go for any custom cakes or cupcakes.

Super friendly service! Smelled like heaven inside. My daughter and I had chocolate cupcakes and they were very delicious.. loved it

This review is mostly for the service at Kristi G’s, since i didn’t actually get to taste the cake. I am in NY and called in to Kristi G’s asking for them to deliver a cake for my grandmother who is in a nearby nursing home, they said no problem they’ll take care of it, and they definitely did. The girl that picked up the phone I believe her name was Nicole, took my order, gave me prices, and even provided suggestions on what kind of cake would be best for my grandmother, which was amazing, cause my grandmother really did like it. They even called me as soon as the cake was delivered so i was up to date.
Overall the service was FANTASTIC and i was very pleased. I will definitely be back for future occasion when i want to send something to my grandmother. Thank you again!

Kristi made the airplane cake for us this week. The cake was great and the design was perfect. I believe that if you spell out EXACTLY what you want with a vendor, you should have no problems. I was very particular on what I wanted and how I wanted it done and Kristi was able to work with me to make it happen.

Well, let me chime in on what everyone else is saying. I was there earlier today and the girl at the counter was extremely friendly. That is until I questioned if they had a nicer bag to put the cheap, plastic cupcake holder in, as opposed to a GROCERY BAG! W-​T-​H!!! She then went on to say how it’s a family business and they are very small — umm mamm, I don’t care about your mom’s 3^rd born and all of that other mumbo jumbo! I’m just into PRESENTATION. I went out of my way to stop in the mall just to get those dry cupcakes. I had the orangesickle and the icing was surprising good, but the cake was dry as the mojave desert! I gave the other 2 as a thank you gift to a friend, in that GROCERY BAG!!! For the bomb cupcakes, I will stick with byfaithcookiescupspopsdotcom — they even deliver!!!

My girlfriend and I have tried both locations. Though, I think the location in grapevine closed down. Anyways, the first time we tried their cupcake, it was plain and dry. After seeing their show on food network with «the cake boss», we thought maybe they tweaked the recipes and it could taste good. We were wrong. Its tasted the same. The cakes were dry, super sweet toppings, and «stale» frosting. One of our flavor was Nutella. All they did was squeezed nutella filling into the plain cupcake. I feel bad for saying this, but even box mixes taste better. Spend your SWEET earned money elsewhere, like Sprinkles cupcakes. Mmm

I walked up ready to buy a bunch of cupcakes. no one greeted me or said «may I help you». A girl come up to the counter and just looks at me… says nothing. I say.” Can I get a couple cupcakes please”…she says…“which ones you want.” Just rude and off putting. I said «nevermind» and walked away. Sorry I interrupted you cupcake making… rude.

In a word: LOVED
Called Kristi on Friday for an event on Saturday wanted a mixture of cupcakes (because they have like 15 flavors a day) with each cupcake having a different letter for «Happy Birthday Lizzie.» Not only was the order on time and ready for pick-​up, but when I asked the check-​out girl to put the flavor next to each letter, she did, making it super easy for eaters to know which cupcake they wanted. then when they were consumed they were moist and tasty! I’ve told everyone about them and am even more impressed with the service!
Thank you!

It’s convenient since they have mall hours, but the product is subpar… dry cake and super sweet icing. Their space is cute, but if I’m going to spend up to $ 4 on a cupcake, it must be tasty. I will drive an extra few miles for a quality cupcake.

There’s a new cupcake shop in the Vista Ridge mall. I came in here to see what they were all about and was impressed by how cute and colorful the walls were. The owner’s daughter took my order… I ordered a mini chocolate cupcake and a mini vanilla cupcake. For two mini cupcakes, the total was almost $ 6! I can get a large cupcake from a well known cupcake shop, like Dimples or Sprinkles, for $ 4. I was shocked when I saw the price.
Neither of the cupcakes were moist. The chocolate cupcake tasted dry and boring. There was nothing sweet about it. The vanilla cupcake was ok, but definitely not as good as other cupcakes I’ve tried (especially not for the price).
I can’t say I’d ever have a craving to come back here.
