We were also one of the first bakeries to offer gluten-free and vegan cupcakes, and they're in our cupcake cases every day. We specialize in making your vision for your perfect & most delicious day come to life.

Our mouthwatering wedding cupcakes and delectable cake pops are baked fresh with the finest all-natural ingredients. Envision tiers or platters of our regular or mini cupcakes swirls with icing that matches your wedding colors. Your guests are sure to find every bite of fresh, fluffy cake and rich, creamy icing a delight.

If you’d like a wedding cake to cut or a groom's cake, consider one of our mega cupcakes. Mega cupcakes or one of our small, traditional wedding cakes can also be used as the top of a tier.

We offer private tastings to ensure the ideal special confection for your wedding, wedding favors, and tier rentals to display your cupcakes, and we'll deliver and set up your wedding cupcakes within the Charleston metro area.

Yummy and Original

We are so glad that we decided to go with Cupcake Downsouth for our dessert option at our wedding! Not only were the cupcakes absolutely delicious, but they look amazing as well. Our guests loved them and were still talking about them days later! We ordered 10 dozen mini cupcakes and a single layer cake. All came out beautifully and were displayed perfectly. Kaley was a pleasure to work with and we'll definitely be recommending Cupcake Downsouth to anyone looking for an alternative dessert for their wedding day!
