Leslie HollandAugust 2, 2009Some of the best cupcakes in the city (cake: flavorful + moist, frosting: not-too-sweet.) Peanut butter fans, have the signature Sweet Revenge cupcake. Carrot cupcake also v. good.
Carren O'KeefeJune 27, 2013The Crimson and Cream cupcake is literally the best cupcake I've ever had.
Yolanda ShoshanaSeptember 2, 2011Cupcakes and wine...do I need to say more. Take someone here to seduce them with dessert!
sarah rosefeldtOctober 5, 2012cupcake and wine pairings, this place makes for the best sweet ending to your night!
This place is amazing! The cupcakes and wine were excellent. Great experience!
Cupcakes Take The CakeDecember 29, 2011At night this is a good after dinner or date spot. Cupcakes are big enough for two.
The Daily SipFebruary 8, 2012This place is as unique as its specialty... pairing its phenomenal cupcakes with wine.
Brian KarfunkelJanuary 19, 2015I can't believe I'm saying this, but I wish the cupcake (the Dirty, chocolate on chocolate) was half the size, or else had more going on.
Kristy LambJanuary 3, 2012Try the cupcake-cocktail or beer pairings. Fabulousness. Raspberry red velvet - yum.
Kate MalayMarch 22, 2010I lost my sweet tooth then found it again at Sweet Revenge. Love the moist cake and sweet/saltiness of their red velvet and PB/chocolate cupcakes.- Get the Sweet Revenge cupcake. Straight to the classics.
Devin SugameliMay 27, 2011If you're w/ a friend it's actually a better deal to get the $15 carafe of sangria plus a cupcake (better than the 4sq deal).
emily chenFebruary 21, 2015i would skip this place and go around the corner to The Dessert Club for better, less basic desserts and wine.
Will GarréFebruary 6, 2012The Dirty Cupcake with Pear cider is a good combo, but it's fulsome and might make you feel ill.
Jane DamJanuary 31, 2011Get the Crimson & Cream cupcake (raspberry red velvet). The hint of raspberry is a nice touch.
Susanna Lee PaulusFebruary 15, 2011The staple Sweet Revenge cupcake is heavenly - order it if you're a peanut butter and chocolate fan.
Tammi WilliamsAugust 25, 2011Love the fleur de sel! Just get it. And if they don't have that get the dirty!
michael nerenburgDecember 21, 2010some of the best cupcakes on carmine street. but once you leave carmine then you can probably get good dessert and much faster. also, i didn't really think they were cupcakes. go somewhere else.
Matthew HonovicJuly 9, 2010When unsure if what treat to order, you can't go wrong ordering the one named after the shop... for peanut butter lovers only.
Hillary TismanMarch 9, 2010Come hungry and be sure to order the Casablanca cupcake (cardamom & pistachio cake and rosewater frosting). Then, bring one home.
Colleen PorterDecember 11, 2010The best cupcakes ever! The cake isn't too sweet, but the icing and fillings make up for it.
