After trying several bakeries around my neighborhood, I decided to drive to Patty’s Cakes in Fullerton. With excellent customer service and 50 standard cupcake flavors, carefully divided into different categories and flavor combinations. Including gluten-free and vegan options. Additionally, she offers cake balls, cookies, and cakes.
Pros: The cupcakes are moist, fresh, and incredibly fluffy in every bite. The toppings are creamy, velvety, and not overly sweet. Keep well in the fridge for a day or two if you manage not to eat them all in one sitting ;). I would say the ratio of cake-to-filling is pretty well balanced. The cupcakes are baked throughout the day, but the toppings and fillings are added until you order.
Cons: I prefer natural and seasonal ingredients such as fruit compotes, nuts, and cream fillings in my desserts. Due to the food coloring, I was disappointed by the Blueberry Bliss and the Banana Strawberry cupcakes with a lousy after-taste flavor. Having said that I understand the difficulty of having fresh fruits year-round and the need to substitute some ingredients.
After my first visit, I have gone back a few times to try different flavors and give a fair review. The service and cupcakes have been consistent. I recommend “Patty’s Cupcakes.” For her quality, freshness, and competitive prices.
Customer Service: Excellent service and very helpful in explaining the ordering process and answering any questions.
Cleanliness: Spotless
Waiting time: 10-15 mins depending on the size order.
Pricing:$3.75-$4.25 ea / $48 dozen
