The cupcake decorating class is super fun to take! Tony is a hilarious instructor who is also able to demonstrate the decorating techniques in a way that makes it easy for anyone to replicate.
RosalindJanuary 3, 2013Best cupcakes in town. The milder flavors eg lavender, vanilla etc are not sickeningly sweet like most other cupcake brands are. Creamy & smooth.
Hands down: best cupcakes around. Their cake is flavorful and soft and their frostings are to die for. No reason to bother with the other cupcake places- they've got nothing on yellowleaf!
Candice OngFebruary 27, 2013Best cupcakes in the world. Try the Boston Creme... but honestly you could choose anything on this menu and it's guaranteed to be great.
Jeff WilliamsonMarch 26, 2017Good. But expensive. $4/cupcake. We spent $17 on a cup of tea, a cup of coffee, a cupcake, and a cookie. $17. Wow.
the stelTARFebruary 27, 2013Great cupcakes and super nice people. Also ask for the bacon toffee...it is amazing

Sophia MatthewsAugust 19, 2012Try the Tomato Soup Cupcake - Absolutely PERFECT!! Has Campbell's in it.
Veronica Weber-StilesApril 4, 2012They have gluten-free cake pops everyday and gluten-free cupcakes on Fridays.
Vienna CatNovember 9, 2010not just great cupcakes, but also really cute homemade cards. love the cupcake minis!
Social RebelApril 3, 2012Some lucky individuals are getting a cupcake surprise today :) That should make up for the rainy weather.
Sara Ann KelleyJuly 24, 2013Got the frozen custard for the first time... Really disappointing. It's like elastic and not nearly creamy enough.
I think they are the only ones brewing Vivace blends in Belltown. Delicious French-pressed Vivace.
There isn't a bad cake in the shop and Tony Portugal is a swell guy
don't pass up the tea... they are very good at pairing leaves to icing :-)! Read more
LudwigSeptember 7, 2013The vanilla latte cupcake is a nauseating, bland blob that you'll have to choke down to get it over with. Gross.
