Delicious cake; vegan options; local business; family-owned. We love this place!

Sugar Circus is by far the best bakery in town! It was a no brainer when we had to pick a bakery for our wedding cake! Even with an indecisive bride, they were great to work with and our cake turned out amazing!!

We ordered our mini cupcakes for the reception from Sugar Circus and they were a huge hit! They make the tastiest little treats! They are a great vegan option that will make even the pickiest eaters fall in love! And not only are their cupcakes delicious the staff there is super nice and very accommodating.

A few years ago my now husband surprised me with a birthday cake from Meghan- so when we got engaged, he really wanted to support Meghan again! The cake was delicious so I obviously agreed- When we contacted Meghan she told us she had joined forces with Belinda and they opened a new shop- we were super excited and went for our tasting. Meghan and Belinda are awesome. Super down to earth and know their stuff. We opted on two cakes from Belinda, an AMAZING three tiered carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. Seriously amazing. I still am hearing about the cake, I had someone ask me where I got it because they wanted that same cake for their fathers birthday. We also had the Mexican Hot Chocolate cake, also rave reviews. I sent Belinda a picture of what we wanted and she hit it spot on. The cakes were beautiful and even better than beautiful they tasted amazing. I seriously can't put into words just how GOOD these cakes were! I'm a fan for life.

We chose Sugar Circus Bakery for our wedding cake for a number of reasons, for instance (1) it was an offbeat vendor and offbeat place, very Austin-y, (2) their quote was extremely affordable, and (3) their cakes are DELICIOUS and they have lots of vegan options (very flexible).

We had a very complicated order and request and suffered through several tastings at several places before landing on Sugar Circus. We wanted a small Journey (not the band, the PS3 game) themed wedding cake that served about 25, and a small Chess board themed groom's cake, also serving about 25. This was because we wanted to use mini cupcakes (2 per guest, one in each flavor/theme) to simplify cake cutting. Every other place we went to (not naming names) were either completely out of their depth about it, or UNWILLING to do it, or were very nice but extremely, extremely expensive.

The staff at Sugar Circus were excited about the themes when we discussed it with them! We ended up with cinnamon-sugar churro cake (IT TASTES AMAZING) with vegan buttercream frosting for the wedding cake, and chocolate-chip cake (ALSO AMAZING) with vegan buttercream frosting for the groom's cake. We're not frosting people usually, we don't like things that are sickeningly sweet -- but the vegan buttercream actually tasted MUCH BETTER than any of the other frostings I had tried in my trials of cake-tasting. It was a more subtle taste. I would highly recommend trying it even if you're not vegan. They delivered the cakes and cupcakes on-time at our wedding site, and they were gorgeous! AND DELICIOUS!

The only negative I have is that their response time via email was a little slow. I think its mostly a result of how busy they are with lots of weddings; I can imagine it gets pretty crazy. Everything turned out fine, though, and they delivered everything on-time and the cakes were PERFECT.

Our cake from Sugar Circus was truly delicious. Overall, working with them was pretty smooth. There were some serious communication errors, and we did have some trouble with a few things day of, but Sugar Circus went above and beyond to correct those issues. I think they have the best vegan wedding cake in town, and despites some missteps, would use them again.

Please don't let Sugar Circus turn your wedding day into hours of worrying after not being able to reach them and your cake hours upon hours late. Learn from my mishaps.

I ordered my wedding cupcakes and cake from Sugar Circus and was originally very excited to work with Sugar Circus, unfortunately they lack the professionalism required to handle large orders for events and it took an unfortunate toll on my special day. Not only was the delivery late but Sugar Circus was completely unreachable for several hours despite my friends and family calling emailing and Facebook messaging. Since we had no idea if the cupcakes were on their way and the ceremony was about to start we ordered replacement cupcakes from another bakery. The Sugar Circus cupcakes finally arrived after the scheduled start time and they said they had car trouble which is truly no excuse for a business in 2015 to be unreachable on cell phone, store phone, email and social media.

Sugar Circus still refuses offer a partial refund to cover the replacement cupcakes we ordered ($200) even after we payed them over $700 for the order.. I am so disappointed that they're mistakes cost me hours of worrying (and yes, tears) on my special day when I should have just been enjoying my day. And the fact that they are not sorry or willing to refund the costs we incurred.. terrible!

They should not be in the wedding business and should not be positioning themselves as a capable full service bakery able to offer deliveries...
