2009-11-03 22:22:18   What a lovely space - small, warm and inviting. I tried the "Cappuccino" cupcake and it was tasty but extremely rich. Unless you have a serious sweet tooth, I recommend sharing. The chocolate mint tea was also delicious. The "Very Vanilla" cupcake received rave reviews as well. The host was very friendly and attentive. It is great to have a cafe open till midnight during the weekend in the Park Ave area. I will be back soon. Update from more recent visit - I was here on a weekend and their area was packed. Therefore we had to sit in the La Tea Dah area ... that was overwhelming and distracting. However, I was told the bakers revamped the buttercream frosting after receiving feedback on it being too sweet. I definitely could tell the difference. I think I will stick to weekday visits (when we can avoid the La Tea Dah ambiance). I agree that it is somewhat overpriced but then again which cafe's desserts aren't? —OneLove

The cupcake itself was extremely dry and the frosting in the center had a sour taste to it. The only part of it that was good was the Oreo on the top. I think it's safe to say I won't be back. —Kimberdoodle


2009-11-09 19:16:17   We went with friends last week. The surroundings are the dusty, cluttered, tacky "Victorian" junk from the Tea Shop. The service was, well, odd. The cupcakes were nothing special, you can get better cupcakes and baked goods at a lot of other places in the city. I give them six months max. —DottieHoffmann

The staff is VERY attentive, which may turn off some people. What I did not know is that some of the cupcakes are made with alcohol which may explain some of "odd" taste that others experienced. Can't wait to go back. —JJohnson

We spoke with one of the staff this evening and found out that you can see their daily rotation of cupcakes on Facebook. The only other option for inquiry was to call daily to see the selection. The three cupcakes that they have as daily staples are Very Vanilla, Chocolate Peanut Butter, and Sinfully Chocolate. They rotate the other flavors "randomly" daily. I highly recommend! —MerCDotes
