Review №1

Cupcake price is fine and standard, so I would pay no attention to reviews that are griping about price. The attendant was warm, friendly, and polite which I was I even gave the place 2 stars instead of 1. The cupcakes, on the other hand, were awful. They were a rubbery, spongey texture with a gritty icing on top. The flavors ( I got 2 cupcakes) werent anything special and werent even very strong. Unfortunately, the texture of the cupcakes was so bad that I dont think they know how to make cupcakes properly. I would not recommend which is sad because I like to support local.

My favorite cupcake bakery. They are not too sweet and do no overdo on the icing. Its a perfect cake to frosting ratio. Good flavors and always consistently good.

Worst cupcakes I’ve ever had and overpriced, they are the same price in ASPEN, Colorado! But at least the cupcakery in Aspen has delish cupcakes. Go to bird bakery or Sugar Mama’s…you’ll be relieved!

Visited Trinicakes on a whim and was pleasantly surprised by the quality and deliciousness of the cupcakes! Lovey was very nice and prompt and made the experience easy. The cupcakes were moist and fluffy and the frosting was just the right amount of sweet. We were fortunate enough to get in just 30 minutes after they were prepared! I’ve tried numerous cupcakes across the U.S. and San Antonio area and have now found a new favorite spot!

I have no idea how you can make a cupcake not taste good. Was so disappointed in these cupcakes. The worst I’ve ever had and way overpriced.

Dry cupcake. No selection. Really? You dont have a basic chocolate cupcake and then give me a dry cupcake for $3.50 that went straight to the trash. Rip off. Save your money and go to the HEB literally within feet from TriniCakes. I got 2 delicious cupcakes for under $5.

Went in for red velvet cupcakes and to my dismay they were half the normal size of normal sized cupcake and had regular vanilla butter cream frosting and not cream cheese frosting.. I won’t be going back, next time I’ll just make the trip to GiGi’s cupcakes cuz they are definitely worth the drive to 1604. I guess that’s what I get for convenience.

Some of the best cupcakes I have had. I went in late in the day so the selection was very limited. The lemon and strawberry is what I went for. They were both very moist and the icing was perfect (not too sweet). I’ll have to go back and try some of the other flavors but I was impressed with what I had so far.

My wife went to order some come cakes and the attendant did not seem to have any idea on how to take the order nor did she seem competent in knowing the businesss service capabilities. This was illustrated from having to call her boss, then text her boss, and by the stating that she was not sure that her baker could perform the request. My wife eventually got tired of waiting for the texting session, and we took our business somewhere else. Oh, we were just wanting to order normal vanilla cup cakes for my 3 year old daughters birthday party.

The Italian cream raspberry was so delicious! I usually scrape most of the frosting because it it usually too sweet but their frosting has a good balance and tastes great. The cake itself was moist with great flavor and quality.

I truly thought over the past few hours what review I would give so please take to mind that I am not reviewing on a whim. My daughters and I stopped in today because one wanted ice cream next door and the other daughter chose a cupcake as her treat. Price per cupcake is $3.50 and I believe about standard for the cupcake market. Unfortunately, these cupcakes arent real contenders with the aforementioned. Soft and moist, absolutely, but thats the only positive. The button decoration on top should not be eaten, it ruins the good taste of the cupcake itself. The icing whether too sweet for some or perfect for others really depends on the person, my disappointment is in the gritty texture. I dont like to feel the sugar like sand in the icing. Selection was about 8 flavors, typical no complaints, but would love to see a featured flavor of the month or customer favorite something like that, it would help them upsale. Lastly, the arrangement of the store is odd. I wish they would switch the display case with the register. The reason is because the standing tables are right next to the case and made the space crowded and uncomfortable, I can only imagine if they had other customers eating there or trying also to look at the selection. It wasnt until after we made our selection and started to pay that I then saw they also had lemon bars and brownies (very disappointed I didnt get a lemon bar instead.) Because the arrangement of the store is not inviting, I left dissatisfied with my purchase. We will not be returning since we live far, but even if we lived close, I wouldnt recommend. I do hope this review inspires some revamping of the location and merchandise as I hate leaving bad reviews. I tried to be more constructive with my criticism here.

The small variety didn’t even bother me. What bothered me was the fact that regular ordinary cupcakes were $3.50 a piece, they weren’t stand out good at all AND the place didn’t even smell like a bakery. It smelled like old mop water. I’m convinced the cupcakes were made at home and transported to the bakery. It didn’t smell like cakes at all. What a turnoff. Don’t waste your time or money.

I had the sweet potato cupcake and it was excellent. Very moist and flavorful. My only complaint is I wish the cake was a little larger.

For over the pass 4 years my family and I have been loyally ordering dozens and dozens of cupcakes from TRINICAKES for all occasions to include Fathers Day. This year 2017, Saturday day before Fathers Day my wife and I went to pickup a dozen that she ordered for me as a surprise ended up being an extremely disappointing visit. After look over over our order we had 8 chocolate on vanilla and wanted 4 Trini chocolate in exchange for 4 out of the 8 chocolate on White. The clerk went to ask someone in the back if she could exchange them and she said NO! We have had them exchanged in the pass. Needless to say that ruined part on my Fathers Day. We left very disappointed.
