An incredible little shop with best cupcakes with decent prices. Tried their Cannoli cutie cake, chocolate, raspberry truffle cupcake, coconut macaroons & Dubai chocolate bar. All items were above par. Would highly recommend this place.
Incredible!!!! Amazingly kind, happy, creative and knowledgeable staff!!!!!!! My daughter?s birthday was today and you guys went absolutely above and beyond to help make it extra special! You guys were beyond the icing on the cake!! Great job! The cake was stunning and the cookies were out of this world adorable! Thank you guys so very much for everything! I would HIGHLY recommend this business and will be a faithful forever customer!! ??
I love love love the Gourmet Cupcake Shoppe! They did my wedding cake in October and it turned out better than I could have imagined. Kelley was so patient with me and made sure my vision came true. I 100% recommend the Gourmet Cupcake Shoppe for your future cakes and other desserts ??
They did an amazing job on my wedding cake & cupcakes. I sent over some Instagram inspiration pictures and they took it and ran! Such an amazing job customizing every detail I was hoping for and more. All my guests were raving over how good the cake was too ??
Wonderful little shop. I got 5 cake truffles and a butterscotch cookie. My family and I devoured the cookie before I could snap a picture. Absolutely phenomenal. Reasonably priced. My wife, who doesn't like sweets, was even impressed. A must try in Midland.
The prices are awesome ???? we got 6 cupcakes (all look so good, can't wait to try them), a large cookie, and 2 cake truffles for around $25. The oreo cake truffle was amazing!
If I could leave them 6 stars, I would in a heart beat. The staff is extremely kind, approachable, and have great attitudes every time I am in. Furthermore, as an individual with a gluten allergy, it means the world I can get a wide variety of sweets (cookies, cupcakes, brownies, etc.) on the go for an affordable price and that taste DELICIOUS! I did not have a big sweet tooth before, but The Gourmet Cupcake Shoppe changed that! :) Also, I had a great experience with a custom order cake made exactly the w
Always a clean and pleasant environment. The display cases always have an assortment of bake goods to fit any needs your sweet tooth may have. I have tried the cupcakes, cookies and truffles and all have been great!
I could not have been happier about my wedding cake. The service, the price and the design all were great. Most wedding cakes are yucky but everyone raved about how good it was. It was a theme cake and a surprise for my husband. He loved it. It tasted as good at it looked. Thank you for adding to our special day!
Approximately 6 weeks ago I came up with an idea to surprise my boyfriend with a freighter cake for his 40th birthday. Living in Washington currently, made this a bit of a difficult task to accomplish. I called around to a couple bakeries in the area and was told they couldn?t accommodate my request. I was referred to The Gourmet Cupcake Shoppe by a friend and couldn?t be happier with the outcome. Not only were they just an absolute delight to work with (especially cross country) but the cake turned out bet
My wife Sarah and I took our five kids to here a while back and it was a blast! The shop was filled with delicious aromas and colorful displays. Each of our kids chose a different flavor. The cupcakes were moist, flavorful, and perfectly sweet. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcome. It was a delightful experience for the whole family, and we can?t wait to go back. That lemon cake of deliciousness is something I've thought about for days. Be warned this happened forever ago and I'm writing the revi
I love this bakery. We go every year to get their paczki on fat Tuesday. We occasionally get donuts. And I've gotten cupcakes. This picture is of one of their mini 6" cakes that I bought for my 1 year old's birthday smash cake. He smashed it well, and it's so delicious, we're going to eat the rest of what's left, even though it looks exactly as if we let a 1 year old destroy it. SUCH A GOOD CAKE.
Had them make some cookies for a baby shower at work (OSCODA) omg every one loved them thank u for such a wonderful job
Love love love! The cupcakes are amazing! Lemon might be my favorite. The cake pops, macaroons, chocolate covered nutty bars and truffles are great too.
Nice selection of goodies. Stopped in to order some hot cocoa bombs. Omg! Absolutely beautiful! They do a great job.
Carrie provided a rainbow wedding cake and mini cupcakes for my daughter's wedding. The cake was absolutely beautiful! The cupcakes were outstanding and I had NO leftovers to take home! The service was impeccable! I highly recommend Gourmet Cupcake Shoppe.
Food is always good. It is not super fancy, but has good quality. The building itself is small and clean made for quick in and outs. The lady I spoke to over the phone today 12-13-2024 seemed very uninterested in talking when I simply wanted to place an order. Said NO and said I have to come and pick up what I want if they have it?. Okay fine that?s how I normally do it but was trying to play it safe for Valentine?s Day. I proceeded to ask about the option and what time they were open. While doing that I go
Stopped in on our drive from Grand Rapids to Marquette a couple weeks ago. The two young ladies that work there were super friendly, and the food was delicious! Wish I lived closer.
I can not say enough wonderful things about The Gourmet Cupcake Shoppe! I remember going here often as a kiddo with my mom and sister for our girls day to get a cupcake or cookie, been blessed to have a few birthday cakes from here, and now visit frequently for their AMAZING $2 cake balls! and they now serve the best doughnuts in Midland! As sweet as their treats are, I?d say their staff is even sweeter! Jenna, Natalie, and the wonderful red head who works up front (I am SO sorry i can?t remember her name!
My first time getting Gourmet Cupcake Shoppe was for my wedding in 2019 and they were fantastic back then. Since then the world has... gone through a lot. Many businesses closed, many restaurants have gotten worse, but we held hope that our beloved old cupcake shoppe would still be good. Guess what? IT FREAKING WAS. EXCELLENT CUPCAKES!!! Also the truffles and cookies are good too, but it's not called the Gourmet Truffle Shoppe, it's named for cupcakes and by God, they do not disappoint.
Delicious! I had the Dubai Chocolate Cake and it was so yummy!!!
They make great cupcakes, and they are the only place in Midland where you can get a good donut. Highly recommend making an order with them for Paczki Day.
Ordered 96 mini cupcakes in 4 different flavors for my baby shower of roughly 50 guests. Not everyday you get fancy cupcakes so I ordered 2 for everyone so they could try multiple flavors and have a acceptable dessert. One mini isn't enough. The customer service was good and the cupcakes were great! Would definitely recommend for any shower or wedding!
Hands down, the BEST cupcakes I?ve ever had. The cake part is always super light and airy, and the icings are super decadent. Even my mom, who usually hates cupcakes, loved the ones from this store. Cant wait to try more from this store. I had the German chocolate and Motown.
Food is good but customer service is lacking. I picked up an order Saturday evening (for my nephews class treat on Monday) the order was 20 cookies of specific shapes. I didn?t realize until later that night (after they closed) that the shapes were wrong. I fully take responsibility for not checking the boxes before I left, I was pretty clear in what I wanted, but I still should have checked. I called Monday morning and got no answer, called again Monday afternoon and was told that there was nothing they co
We love the gourmet cupcake shoppe. We go there for special occasions, like last week to celebrate the end of the first week of school. Cupcakes are amazing here
The cupcakes are moist and the frosting to cake ratio is perfect. They aren?t as big as i thought they would be, but they?re nice as a treat.
German chocolate cupcake, peach cobbler cupcake and the sugar cookies!
I was visiting from Florida, found the shop online and submitted a custom order for a couple dozen mini-cupcakes within two days of needing them. I was a little confusing, but they checked that they recorded the order correctly. OMG, the cupcakes were ready on time, fresh, decadently delicious and adorable as well. I am excited to get back next year and order more; maybe try some of the other flavors. I have no pics to share because they were eaten before I thought about that.
Very good cupcakes. Had a custom Avenger's cake made for my son's birthday and it was exactly how we requested it. Very friendly staff.
Cake and cupcakes for our wedding were absolutely outstanding. Lupe was wonderful with communing with me and I had no worries about my cake and cupcakes being where they needed to be when they needed to be there. Set up was perfect and everything was exactly what I wanted. Not to mention they were extremely delicious!! Thank you for helping in making our day perfect!!
first of all, their desserts are so delicious. we order from them frequently and it's always amazing. we got 6 cupcakes and a praline pecan pie for thanksgiving and they were loved by everyone. then, today- they CALLED us to make sure the desserts were up to standard. Seriously impressive customer service. thank you!
Update 10/2019: I will say that they really have turned around their customer service and brought in much friendlier employees in the last year. I have bumped my review up from 2 to 4 stars. I wish I could provide one rating for service and one for food. Unfortunately for this local establishment, the employees are downright rude and lack any customer service or personality. Every time I go here I expect things to be different but I always walk away in disbelief that a local store owner wouldn?t put more e
The Buttercream cookies are the absolute best cure for even the Mondayest of Mondays!
They are able to make large, custom orders quickly!! Beautiful variety of cupcakes, chocolates, truffles and so much more!! Cute environment!! Only recommendation... add iced/flavored coffee & teas. The combination would be a hit!
I bought a strawberry cheesecake for my fianc?s birthday. This cheesecake was better then anything i could have made or bought at a store. The tartness of the strawberries complimented the sweetness of the cheesecake. Even the icing that was used on the edges wasnt to overly sweet. I appreciate the glitter that was used on top. It just made it extra special. Thanks so much!
This is my go-to for baked goods! I have special ordered pies for the holidays (which were delicious) and cupcakes for a baby shower (service was excellent, organized, timely, food was great - everything you'd expect for such a steep price tag!) Walk in service is great, beautiful shop and usually friendly service. Cupcakes are quite sweet, so be prepared for that! You pay a little more here, but everything is consistent, creative, and friendly. They are always branching out and trying new things, usua
Really like their restaurant they have connected to it. I saw some cupcakes around $3 that also look very good. In the food section it is a more healthy choice but very tasty. I got something called The Harvest Bowl and you get full very fast. There's a choice of hot and cold vegetables I just get the bowls they have designed and substitute certain things for other.
When you order unicorn cupcakes they never disappoint.
I went to this bakery for the first time on August 28th to see if I could have a custom cake made for my son's 16th birthday today, September 5th. The woman working behind the counter was a short heavy-set dark complected woman whose name I did not get. She seemed a little put out, but she asked me what I wanted. I pulled up an example of the cake I wanted and she explained that since there was black frosting in the design it would bleed into the other colors and wouldn't look good. So I then showed her ano
Wonderful place! Great service and a yummy cake! I reached out to them relatively last minute (< 4 days) for a personal graduation cake and they were able to complete it and it was perfect! It was a great hit and everyone loved how good the cake was. Thanks again!
The BEST cupcakes, and so many varieties! Always pleased to share these with loved ones to celebrate a special occasion or find an excuse to create a special occasion with family and friends. My "go to" bakery.
Not worth the trip! My mother n I stopped in on a Saturday, what a better day it was rainy n cold, Cupcakes! No! The British lady was great, great service, friendly, smiling, cupcakes where small and call large, 1/2 of cupcakes was dry, 1/2 of the donuts was dry. The mngr was there she was rude, acted like she was to busy, didn't greet you unless she had to wait on you even though she was behind the counter, a lady came in to inquire about a job and the manger never looked her in the face or ask her, her na
Total bummer, I ordered the pop-up dinner of pulled pork, Mac and Cheese, and corn bake. The mac and cheese was made on 4/24 and given to me on the date of experation. When we tasted the mac it was like eating poison and curdled milk, my husband gagged and was unable to even swallow it. It was horrible . At that point, we were not eating any of the food. I contacted them and was told that they had eaten from the same food and it tasted fine to them. When I explained that it was absolutely not fine for us
Awesome place for cupcakes, truffles, cakes, and other sweet treats. Their red velvet cupcakes are my family's favorite. Also, sometimes they have small cakes for only $20 they are beautiful and perfect for a birthday or special event.
Wow! I am Grand Master Angel from Angel's Karate. I had the greatest experience at Green Gourmet Cafe. My student and I wanted to go out to lunch (skip class for spring break LOL) We decided to try out this place, our neighbour, across the street. The building was clean, the staff was awesome, friendly and the environment welcoming. Great place, highly recommend.
As their products are concerned they are delicious. Now I am basing the experience with the whole crew of employees and owner. They are smug and feel entitled. When talking to them if you aren't up to par with their standards its difficult to return. A mammoth amount of complacent and disconnected with their audience. Read the other negative reviews. They may have good ratings based on product but negative reviews are all the same about attitude. Come down from the clouds.
the quality of the stuff you sell at espresso milano is always so inconsistent. the blueberry muffins have been dry for months, i used to love them
I used to love visiting this place when I lived there and remembered them having the best cupcakes and pupcakes. Unfortunately, i was a little disappointed. Flavor was still good but the cupcakes were a little dry. Granted it was the end of the day so this could have been the issue. Our Aussie still likes the pupcakes. So still a win!
Went in to buy some goodies for Valentine's Day. Went in, no customers. Sales Associate saod I will be with you in a second as she was dialing the phone. Waited and waited while more customers arrived. She asked the person in back to come out and help. She never did. I finally left. Glad I did, what little they had did not compare to the other store across from the Post Office. It's true good thongs come to those who wait.
They did our wedding cupcakes and everything turned out great! They were super easy to work with and delivery and setup went great! Everyone was very happy with the various flavors we had picked.
Great selection of healthy options. They have soups, sandwiches, smoothies, and these interesting bowls. I really enjoyed the Indian grain bowl which has curried cauliflower, cashews, carrots, roasted onionand other toppings over quinoa. I've also had the mushroom sandwich which was pretty good.
Staff is polite, helpful, and patient. The cakes and cupcakes are great. I would recommend placing an order for a specific type of cake as the pre-preped options are more limited than their ful menu. Will be coming back again and wish I hadn't waited so long to try them.
Nice variety and friendly service, but I've bitten into a frozen cupcake... which leads me to believe they're not fresh made daily. But the variety of flavors are great and the custom orders I've gotten have always received rave reviews.
I called wednesday to order cupcakes for saturday, a dozen. i was told not enough time to make them for saturday. i get that probably busy with graduations. but i was told that if i came in saturday there would be plenty of chocolate and vanilla ones to choose from. I got there about 11 am saturday. the only choice in vanilla was with strawberry. there were a couple chocolate choices. but i was very dissapointed in the cupcakes. they looked like meijer cupcakes, size. i remember the cupcakes being
I'm amazed at how rude people can be. I recently took my wife to the gourmet cupcake shop after a long day of pre-term labor contractions. She needed a pick me up. So we rush all the way across town, and show up right at 6pm (there closing time). After a few knocks on the door a young lady comes over to nicely but firmly tell me that she has just finished closing up the register. Honestly, I get it. What I don't understand is how anyone in this world can live with themselves when they don't have any compass
Delicious pastries cookies cupcakes they really know how to make ?em right. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable about bakery products.
Love love their cakes and macaroons. Very delicious
The tiny baby Batman $80 cake I ordered for my son's diaper party was sweating and fell apart before the party even started, and didn't taste good. Everyone said it was far too sweet.
Love their cupcakes and have really been enjoying their new addition of doughnuts! We stop there once a week before school for a treat. They have the best doughnuts in town!
So sad the Saginaw location closed but happy they're still around. GCS did my wedding cupcakes and people still rave about them. My husband and I started a tradition to get cupcakes from them for each anniversary ??
Love this place! I?m a doordash driver and whenever I pick up a delivery to this place I get excited because the employees always tip me with a box of fresh (super delicious) donuts. I?ll definitely come in to try some other goodies. Thanks guys!
The cupcakes here are incredible and are made with premium ingredients. Must try flavors are the Lemon Drop, Carrot Cake, Red Velvet, Nutella, and Banana Creme Pie!
First couple visits were great. Ordered a special cake for a baby shower and disaster. Let them stick to what they know best, simple cupcakes, nothing more.
Got a few of each cupcake and they were all great.
Grabbed a Mediterranean green bowl from the Cafe. Really great tasting and high quality food, however the portions were small and it was a bit expensive. Alas, the price of local nutrition!
We bought lemon, German chocolate, chocolate with strawberry frosting, My favorite was the lemon. I love frosting but it was a tad too much. The rest were great
Great place for a snack. I suppose I expected more of the cupcakes would be mind-blowingly good; however I felt that some were just a normal cupcake. Good, but, ya know... Perhaps I'm spoiled...
The menu looks great. I selected the asian noodle bowl. i was surprised the noodles and veggies were cold. A great place to meet friends.
Delicious cupcakes, yummy macarons, awesome cookies, beautiful cakes, and so much more! They are my family's go-to place for treats for special occasions!
I have always had an amazing experience with this company! They have done it all for me birthday cakes, bridal shower, wedding, baby showers, and just every day treats!
Delicious! I had the lemon cupcake and peach cobbler. Will be back next time in the area!
I have tasted the lemon and chocolate raspberry filled cupcakes on several occasions at bridal shows and they are fantastic!
Ordered a cake for my wife's birthday, it looks beautiful. Their products are always great and fresh.
My Granddaughter had them make cupcakes for her wedding and they were really good!... A nice change from the traditional wedding cake.
Hubby brought home a mixed dozen of cupcakes and they are delicious. German chocolate is my favorite!
Have ordered their mini cupcake variety box on a number of occasions, have had their donuts, and full size cupcakes and have never been disappointed!
The place had flies in it, in December. Didn?t even know that was possible. They advertise that they have a ton on donuts, yet they only had 5 to choose from and they all looked horrible.
Fantastic cupcakes! Thank you so much for making my birthday all the more wonderful!!!
They do amazing custom cakes! They did one for my 1 year old and it turned out BEAUTIFUL
Love everything they make, I stop regularly to bring treats home to my family. Never had anything bad.
Very nice people but the cupcakes were not anything to write home about or buy again. ??
Great, picked out wedding cake and cupcakes ??for sons wedding . Flavors are so yummy ??
Everything is so good. My favorite item is the mini cupcake sampler amazing.
Delicious cupcakes, including gluten free! Friendly staff, pretty presentations.
Very expensive, terrible attitudes with staff and owner. Cupcakes are dry. Best option cake balls.
Amazing service and great cupcakes! The cookies and cake balls are amazing as well.
I asked for almond milk in my latte but was given regular milk and could not drink it. A refund was given.
