Ace Cakery

Simple. Cupcakes.
That remind me of my childhood– when sprinkles and icing made all things better.
This is the perfect spot for simple sweet cravings. But, I think it caters perfectly to children. So, come and get ‘em cupcakes here for the next birthday party!

Come on… it’s sugar any way you cut it! and what is not to like about sugar… right?
My husband and I simply stumbled in for a cupcake or two… OK OK, be actually bought 4!
ACE UPSIDE:
— The space is cute & clean!
— The cupcakes themselves are cute!
— They bake their items on sight and you can actually see the kitchen. I liked that a lot and thought that seeing the kitchen was a great marketing piece to Ace Cakery. This conjures up thoughts on all good things when baked from home and you feel that when you are there, because again, you can physically see the kitchen and see the staff baking.
–The cupcake themselves (the cake part) was delicious and has the taste like you made them in your own kitchen. They have that «homemade/​small batch» taste.
–Although there website is under construction (indicating they would be back on line in Sept 2015), they can make cupcakes, wedding cakes, birthday cakes, customized cakes… they can do it all.
ACE DOWNSIDE:
— You know how with a great soup, it is often all about the broth. Well, with a cupcake, it is all about the frosting (in my humble, sugar induced opinion). Their cupcake frosting is a whimpy, light sugar frosting, not a big, bold, buttercream or something of the like! The frosting part did nothing for the homemade tasting goodness of the batter below it.
— I know cupcakes are small, but these seemed kind of particularly small.
— I would have confirmed that they have maybe other frosting options, but the girl behind the counter only spoke marginally good English and as stated above, their website is under construction, so I can not see if there are other frosting options.
Maybe light sugar based frosting is your thing? As such, maybe this will be the cupcake of your dreams! The whimpy frosting just did not do it for me. The place is cute though and who knows, I might try again. If someone consumes a buttercream frosted cupcake from Ace, please let me know!
