Cupcakes By Carol

Just found out she moved to Texas. :-(But the Texans will be very happy.

I notice there is no address, so obviously makes them from home. I called yo ask, but the usual voice message.
No thanks.

This woman makes the best gluten free cupcakes. You don’t even know they are gluten free.
Amazing!!!
The peanut butter chocolate was to die for and a huge hit at the party. I really liked the banana chocolate which was sort of like a banana bread muffin with a chocolate frosting. The strawberry cupcakes had the most incredible fresh frosting but the actual cake was just a tiny bit dry. Personally I loved the strawberry cupcake because it wasn’t overly sweet. The taste stands for itself — it doesn’t need a ton of sugar to cover it up.
Carol was generally easy to communicate with and responsive. She was generous and even threw in a few extra since she had leftovers. She delivers them in these great containers too. (I don’t like using plastic since it is horrible for the environment but at least it wasn’t foam — and it really helped keep the cupcakes moist)
I will definitely use her again the next time I am in Orange County. OC is generally a wasteland for good cuisine so this was a very unexpected surprise. I’m from San Francisco where we get the best of everything in culinary — and I would say Carol’s cupcakes could stand up to the best of them — even up here!
I love supporting independent business, especially ones run by women. Way to go Carol. Best of luck to you in the future as you grow your business.

This review is not about the taste of the cupcakes, it is about the customer service. I live in northern CA and am planning a bday party for my little one. Since I live so far away, I want to make sure they can make the cake I want. So I have email them and a day after Carol responded me and I told her what I have in mind but I also asked her what are her suggestions. It has been a week since I email her and I still have no response as of today. Is that how you treat your potential customers?

Who doesn’t love cupcakes? Okay, even those of you on vegan diets can still love them too! Carol’s cupcakes are delicious and never disappoint. She makes all kinds and I love that she does minis too!
Some of the best I’ve had: smore’s, vanilla bean, lemon with raspberry frosting, salted caramel, red velvet, okay seriously wanting one right now. Any flavor though, you can’t go wrong — and the vegan ones taste amazing as well… you won’t even miss the dairy!
Carol is so sweet and accommodating with her orders, and delivers them in cute packaging to boot!

These cupcakes were fantastic. The eggless cupcakes tasted great, and the frosting was a hit. Especially peanut butter. Carol did a great job, even delivered them for us for a birthday. Would definitely recommend for the eggless diet, I am sure the others varieties are just as wonderful. Thank you.

Carol creates the most delicious cupcakes I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating!!! The quality of her ingredients comes through in every bite. These homemade, gourmet cupcakes may actually ruin you for any other.
We ordered a dozen of the mini Pumpkin+Caramel Salt cupcakes & one dozen of the Chocolate + Peanut Butter cupcakes to bring to a friend’s Thanksgiving Dinner. We were over the moon with the moist, melt on your tongue, culinary works of art! We couldn’t stop raving about them… as we reached for another & another.
Carol’s responsiveness, excellent customer service, and Thanksgiving morning delivery exceeded our expectations.
I can’t wait for our next special occasion to order some more.
Thanks Carol!

Carol’s cupcakes are the best! We had them for our son’s wedding reception this and they were a hit with everyone! All the flavors were fantastic and Carol was accommodating and easy to work with. Thanks Carol for helping to make the reception a once in a lifetime event.

Wow. Beauty meets deliciousness. And service surpassing my expectation. Very pleased with Cupcakes by Carol. My go to bakery from now on.

Ordered different flavors to taste for my baby’s first birthday party. The carrot cupcakes were my favorite. The frosting on the strawberry cupcake was exceptional… I can eat a bowl of this. Carol was extremely flexible and accommodating.

Wanted gluten free dairy free cupcakes for a family get-​together but didn’t want everyone to know they were gluten and dairy free! The cupcakes looked and tasted great and were delivered straight to my door! Carol’s communication was fantastic, I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Will be ordering again!

Had them at my school for a fundraiser and they are pretty addicting. I tried my friends and ended up buying 4 more! My favorite was the Snickerdoodle… Amazing! The Pumpkin and salted caramel was really good too! The cupcake was moist, and you could tell the frosting and cake was made with good, fresh ingredients. I wasn’t crazy about the vanilla bean cupcake though. it definitely needed more flavor. It just didn’t compare to the others I tried, maybe more vanilla bean? Everyone else loved the other flavors (chocolate, chocolate vegan) but I didn’t try them all.

Amazing Cupcakes, flavors are awesome. Was able to make vegan ones for my daughters with allergies and you couldn’t even tell the difference!
