Exceptional Service That Always Delivers

The Cupcake Bar has been an absolute lifesaver for our team! We've relied on them many times for hotel amenity gifts as part of our high-level executive recruitment efforts, and they consistently deliver exceptional service. Even with last-minute requests, their team is incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and accommodating—always going above and beyond to ensure everything is handled flawlessly. The presentation, quality, and attention to detail in every gift is truly top-tier and has made a meaningful impression on our candidates. They're not just a vendor—they're a trusted partner, and we’re so grateful to work with them!

They will not disappoint

We absolutely loved the service provided by The Cupcake Bar! We hired them for our Halloween Employee Appreciation event at work, and it was a huge hit. We opted for their Caramel Apple Bar, and they went above and beyond by decorating their stand with a fun Halloween theme. The employees were thrilled to enjoy such delicious, custom-made caramel apples.

The Cupcake Bar is extremely professional, and their customer service exceeded our expectations. They even sent me a thoughtful thank-you note a few days after the event, which was such a nice touch. I highly recommend them for any event—you won't be disappointed!

Excellent quality all around!

I’ve worked with the cupcake bar on two events for our community and they have exceeded my expectation every time! Excellent communication with the planning process, and their setups and the quality of their catering is stunning and so buttoned up! I’ve now done a donut bar, coffee, bar, s’mores station and hot cocoa and all have been executed flawlessly and have been a huge hit with my guests! Thank you TCB!

Great cupcakes and Caramel Apple Bar!

I have had the pleasure of working with The Cupcake Bar through my work, not a wedding. But we recently had them out to do a custom Caramel Apple bar this fall while the weather was nice here in Austin and it was a big hit! I've also picked up their cupcakes for several other office occasions and they are always delicious! Highly recommend!

Incredibly fun ideas come from Lori and her team. We highly recommend them for your next event - especially when you just don't want the typical cake.

Eclipse Event Co. Eclipse Event Co. Wedding Planners

Lori and her team were a dream to work with. They provided Havana-themed roaming treats for dessert for our corporate event this past Father's Day. They were a huge hit, especially the mojito-flavored lollipops and the fried plantains! They are so creative, and very fun! Thanks for making our event a huge success!

Olive & Belle Events Olive & Belle Events Wedding Planners

My event planning company, Olive & Bell Events, collaborated with The Cupcake Bar at a recent spring wedding. The ladies at The Cupcake Bar, Lori and Kim, were always very prompt in their communication and helpful in creating a cupcake menu that satisfied all of the guests' sweet tooth. More than that...these are honestly some of the best cupcakes in Austin! So delicious and many great flavor combinations. I would recommend The Cupcake Bar to any of my future brides or clients. - Sydney
