The staff is always very friendly and welcoming. The cakes are always fresh, and have a great taste. I’ve only ordered custom cakes, and they have always been perfect. I live in Gulfport and go out of my way just so that my children have the best cakes. Thank you Cheeky Monkey. Y’all are WONDERFUL!!!

It was in the neighborhood and decided to stop in to try their cupcakes. I was very disappointed in both their size and the cost. At between $ 2.50 and $ 3 per cupcake they were WAY overpriced considering how small the cupcakes were. While they were tasty, they were not much better than your typical big box store. I was expecting a large gourmet type cupcake like I have had at other bakeries but these were very disappointing

Very moist. Tasted good. About $ 2.50 a cupcake. Got the Boston cream and the King D’Iberville. Only down side was the workers sitting at the table who kept staring at us. Awkward and uncomfortable.

I ordered a custom cake for my niece’s birthday and it was WONDERFUL. The cake was exactly as I asked for it and was absolutely delicious. We are picky cake people in my crew and even my super persnickety nephew enjoyed it. I will definitely be using them for all of my cakes!

I’ve «heard» they were good. I stopped by to buy a Birthday Cake due the next day and they were not able to comply with the order in time. As I was rushed, I offered to pay double if it could be done and was refused. Note: I haven’t tasted their cakes as I couldn’t buy one in time. So this review is only from the aspect that if you need a cake quickly, this isn’t the place.

The décor is adorable… of course, little monkeys all over… and the staff was really sweet. The cupcakes were not like what you see in most cupcake places… they were a standard size cake, like what you would make at home, not the extra-large you see at most cupcake places. However, the price was $ 2.25…a little less than other cupcake places I have been to. I was a little disappointed by the appearance of most of the cupcakes… some with thick, swirled frosting, some that had just been swiped with frosting(so they were flat… kinda like what mom used to make). I ordered the almond wedding cake. The frosting was good and both the cake and frosting had a nice almond flavor, but I was surprised that the cake was a little on the dry side. Bad? No. Outstanding? No. Good? Yes… but when I’m out paying for a dessert, I really expect more than good. However, they do a lot for the community and I’m all for supporting that… so they get points for their community work!

Summary: I was so eager to try this place after eating at Samurais! My SIL and I headed over one afternoon and were pleased with their great fluffy not overly sweet buttercream frosting Day: Lunch Parking: Nothing to worry about, lots of parking in the area! Seating: A couple small tables inside the store Service: As soon as we walked in we were happily greeted by all the ladies behind the counter. I don’t remember her name, but the woman who assisted us did a great job of describing each and every cupcake to us! Food: I can’t remember exactly what I ordered(this review is 3 months too late) but I can tell you that I LOVED the raspberry wedding cake. It was light and not overly sweet. The buttercream is of the highest quality, soft, fluffy, light but stiff enough to hold the piping star texture– its not dense and crisco like at all. I could eat that stuff by the bowl! The only reason its 3 and not 4 or 5 stars is that even though we’ve been back 3 times to try their various and very unique flavors, besides the buttercream the cakes in the cupcakes themselves have not let a lasting impression. I always look for cakes that once you try them, you go home and the rest of the week you crave that taste and you can’t wait for your next stop at that bakery. While the customer service and buttercream are 5 stars I don’t get that lovin feelin! In any case, this place is worth checking out, they have so many different flavors and super fresh cupcakes available every single day that there is no possible way you cold ever get bored!

Oh Simon and the Cheeky Monkey staff you are amazing! Where should I start… Well, let’s start the same way you eat one of their delicious baked goods, with your eyes. They’ve done an excellent job with the décor, it’s colorful, tastefully decorated and extremely clean! I know, cleanliness is what you’d expect from a place preparing food but can you honestly say this is true everywhere you go? It has a very upscale classy feel but the staff is far from pretentious! You’re greeted with a smile and they make you feel like part of their family. I’d be shocked if you left the door without a smile on your face. So now that you’ve feasted with your eyes good luck choosing just one of their amazing flavors of cupcakes! They’ve done an excellent job covering the full spectrum of flavors, from traditional red velvet to one of my favorites BUZZYBEAN! Jennifer made my 40th Birthday cake and people are still talking about it! I mean, just look at the pictures on FB, the work that comes out of this little bakery is top notch and very reasonably priced. I’m military and have been recently stationed in Vegas and DC, just returned from NYC and I’m here to tell you, Cheeky Monkey is on par with the biggest in the business. It’s actually pretty amazing they’ve been open for such a short period of time and are already head and shoulders above every place I’ve experienced on the MS Gulf Coast. Also let me say this, what Cheeky Monkey does for the community is commendable! They’re very involved in charitable work donating proceeds from their cupcake of month to a chosen charity. Cheeky Monkey doesn’t make it about them, they make it about you, the way it should be! Now that I’ve gotten that off my chest let me leave you with this. Every since Ace of Cakes, Cupcake Challenge and all these other shows have become popular everyone thinks they’re a professional. Trust me when I tell you Cheeky Monkey DOESNOT use Crisco in their butter cream and you’ll never get a cupcake that’s a couple days old. You must realize that most people are used to Betty Crocker that comes out of a box or icing from a can, so when they taste something made from scratch they don’t know what they’re eating. Give this place a try and if you don’t like something or have a bad experience let them know, I’m sure they’d be more than willing to make it right. Bottom line, Cheeky Monkey Cake Company is a welcome addition to the MS Gulf Coast and I’m sure will be around for a long time! Give them a try! I know I can’t wait to retire in three weeks so I can move back to MS and become a CMCC regular!

The owners are super nice and the store is very cute inside. I bought a 6 Inch marble cake with chocolate buttercream frosting for $ 25. I thought the cake was dry and the frosting was too sweet. I like my frosting smooth and this one has the sugar grit feel to it. This cake was not worth the price I paid. I wish it was better because I like to support family shops like this. I may go back to try their cupcakes or cookies but not anytime soon. I really hope they get better because this cake shop is so cute!

Went to this bakery this morning after reading about it in the local paper. It’s cute and they have cupcakes as well as breakfast pastries on sale along with coffee, water and soda. I bought a half dozen cupcakes and brought them home. They seem a little chewy on top(maybe it’s been a day or two since it was baked) but, the frosting was excellent. I’m going to give them a few weeks to ‘mature’ and then go back to see how it’s going.
