Babycakes San Diego

OMG! We picked up some AMAZING birthday cupcakes at Babycakes, in San Diego! Jeffery was so patient with us (so many from which to choose!) He perfectly described each flavor profile and how each rated in popularity. He was so sweet and personable. He even included birthday candles in our box! We each tasted one of our picks (my birthday isn’t until tomorrow) and saying they didn’t disappoint would be a huge understatement! Danny ate his German Chocolate cupcake: Chocolate Cake, German Chocolate filling injected into the center & topping with coconut & walnuts and fudge frosting. I chose my Lemon Bavarian: Lemon cake, lemon Bavarian frosting and finished with dollop of lemon curd on top and injected into the middle. Every part of the cupcakes were unique, and delicious all by themselves. They have another location in Hillcrest and one in Imperial Beach!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Talk about saving the day! I had one of those “uh-oh” parent moments and completely forgot to order cupcakes for my son’s birthday. I called around to several local bakeries, but everyone told me no. Then I called Babycakes. Not only were they incredibly kind and understanding, but they also said yes to my son’s very specific request: carrot cake cupcakes with chocolate frosting (because apparently that’s the only thing he wanted!). They made it happen, and I couldn’t be more grateful. The cupcakes were AMAZING! Moist, packed with warm autumn flavors, and the chocolate frosting…oh my goodness…it was rich, smooth, and almost like eating chocolate fudge. The cupcake size was just right, too—not too big and not too small. Excellent customer service, delicious treats, and a bakery that genuinely cares about making their customers happy. Babycakes has officially earned a loyal customer. We’ll definitely be back!

First time ordering a cake here, and my family and I agree, this is our new birthday cake spot! I ordered a red velvet cake as requested by my 17 year old birthday girl. I'm not usually a fan of red velvet cake personally, but I would eat Babycakes' red velvet again in a heartbeat. It was beautiful and delicious. The cake was moist, the cream cheese icing was light and fluffy, and it included a raspberry filling which was a pleasant surprise that really made boring red velvet flavor (in my opinion) something special and interesting. A lot of bakery cakes are sweet enough to take the enamel off your teeth but this cake was just the right sweetness for our tastes. If you dislike the intense sweetness of many of the chain cake bakeries, you too will probably like Babycakes. Service at the Hillcrest location was friendly and efficient, too. We will definitely be ordering our future cakes from here.

BabyCakes Cupcakery has beautiful, eye-catching desserts that look amazing, but they’re a bit too sweet for my taste. Great presentation, just wish the flavors were more balanced.

The Babycakes on Reo: The label indicated this cupcake was blood orange. It was an unsatisfactory heavy vanilla sponge, with frozen blueberries on the bottom (why?); the buttercream frosting was good. Although the frosting totally lacked tang/blood orange acid to off set the sweetness; and the tiny sugar glazed candied (preserved?) mandarin orange bit was soggy. This cupcake needed to be topped with a fresh half slice of beautiful blood orange. Score 1-2 out of ten. Tossed it in the garbage after eating the blueberries in the bottom with a bit of the kinda vanilla flavored buttercream frosting. Hans-Harry has 100% better cupcakes. Maybe offer fewer flavors and focus on freshness and a lighter sponge. Signed: Cupcake Lover Jenny W.
