We had The Cup do our cupcakes and cutting cake for our wedding this past December. I enjoyed working with their wedding coordinator. She and her team made it so easy for us to pick flavors and place the order. We were given the option to customize, which we didn’t do, but I loved that the service was available. The cupcakes vanished at the wedding and we barely had leftovers. The days after the wedding everyone was looking for the cupcakes to munch on. We also did a small top tier cake to cut and choose peanut butter buttercream and WOW it was SO GOOD. We opted to pick up the cupcakes ourselves instead of delivery but that would have also been available. I think if I had to do it again I’d opt for their delivery and set up for the expertise of their staff with making sure correct toppers went on the right cupcakes since our crew got a little confused there.

All in all it was great experience and it was a fun way to have a little cake that everyone could enjoy.

Yesterday, we stopped in around 2:30 PM and picked up two cupcakes, lemon drop and strawberry, but both were extremely dense. They were noticeably different in size, and the texture was rubbery, to the point I needed a knife just to cut one in half. On my visit prior to this one, I received a cupcake with visible sugar granules throughout, likely from under creaming the butter and sugar.

I used to go out of my way to stop here for a cupcake, but the inconsistency lately has been disappointing enough that I no longer feel comfortable tipping at checkout. It may be time to revisit staff training to ensure more consistent baking quality.

We used The Cup for our wedding on Nov 8th, 2025 and they were incredible to work with from start to finish. We had a long email thread going of me asking a million questions and they answered every single one thoughtfully and they were extremely responsive. I got so many compliments from guests about the cupcakes and I can say from the ones I had that they truly are the best tasting cupcakes around. You will not regret choosing The Cup!

They always have the best cupcakes. The store is always impeccably clean. And the people working act like they love their jobs, as they are always so happy/cheerful. The photo attached is not a mistake. It looks like Orange Chicken, but is actually their April Fools offering. Believe it or not, that is all cake and icing and sauce. They do a great job all the time. I also found the “hamburger and fries” cupcake the did a couple of years ago for July 4. They’re always doing fun stuff like this.

The staff was very helpful and accommodating. We drove over an hour to find a bakery for birthday treats and The Cup had exactly what we were looking for. Everything looked delicious! Highly recommended this establishment.

Stopped in to get a box of cupcakes for my parents. Thought I would share the love. Fantastic, per usual! Great staff too!

After seeing a video on TikTok, my mom and I decided to stop on our way home from St. Louis at the Edwardsville location. We live in Tennessee, and the cupcake picture is from when we walked through the door of our home to share with the rest of the family. They were still in tip-top condition and tasted oh-so-amazing. They weren’t overly sweet, and the flavor profile for each cupcake was excellent. The staff, too, were exceptional—very kind, patient, and interactive. I honestly wish we lived closer to go more often or for them to open somewhere closer to home.

The best cupcake in town! My only complaint is that my favorite flavor, Black Forest, is only available in December.

Legendary Cake! My wife first brought these extraordinary cupcakes into our lives when she worked in St. Louis. Her friends and she named themselves the Cupcake sisters after their love for these sweets. I was near the Edwardsville location and had to stop for some. They are the best cupcakes I ever had and I have tried most of the local gourmet cupcake places. As someone who would eat sheet cake for breakfast, I consider myself an expert. They are worth every penny. The bakery has a great atmosphere and wonderful customer service.
