Sunshine’s Cupcakery: Reviews & Ratings
Unique frostings and not to sugarey. Their double chocolate is bomb, red velvet soft a lil spongey subtle taste, carrot cake has great combo of cream cheese and carrot
Awesome and delicious variety of cupcakes! I've told my family and friends to make sure they stop for some cupcakes!
the BEST red velvet cupcakes live in this bakery! My family and I stopped in recently and I honestly wished I lived closer because they would see me multiple times throughout the week. It was so fluffy, flavorful, and filling but not too sweet and over bearing. We also tried others, which were equally as good but I'm a RV girlie. Definitely stop in and grab a sweet treat if you're in the area!!!
Cute little shop, friendly employee and the cupcakes were amazing! The packaging we received our cupcakes in was a nice touch as well
This will be my new sweet treat place when I'm in town. The interior is so cute and peaceful. Anyone that likes desserts and cupcakes should give this place a try. The cupcakes are bigger than the average and for the price I think it's affordable. The owner was really nice and answered any questions that I had. They had a few flavors already sold out so head in early if you want the full selection. I got the red velvet, carrot cake, salted caramel, and German chocolate. Overall they were moist and fluffy. I think the buttercream was a little sweet for my personal taste but I still enjoyed them!
I come to Elgin regularly and one random when I was craving sweet treats this place came up on my social . I was initially sceptical of the location for a bakery but boy I was completely wrong . The place , people , service , decor , and most importantly cupcake just blew my mind . Coming back again and again for sure !!!
We were on the road to Lake Geneva and my husband found Sunshine's Cupcakery. He always finds a cupcake for me when we're traveling. I used to be a cupcake baker and am a cupcake fanatic so it's fun to try new places. What a find! This place is adorable with its pink decor and flower wall. Very inviting. The cupcakes are AMAZING! The frosting is creamy and not overly sweet. The cake is so moist, and the cupcake is a good size, too. No skimping here. I've tried cupcakes all over the states, plus in countries like Australia and Italy and everywhere in between. These cupcakes are the best I've ever had. Seriously!! The only thing missing is a cappuccino/espresso maker. I recommend this cupcake bakery. Support small business!
This is a fantastic family owned business with many flavors of cupcakes. You can't go wrong t with these special treats!
So delicious!!! The best salted caramel cupcake I have ever had!!! One is enough to satisfy cravings but you will want more! Will be back!
