Too heavy, nice concept though – I didn't particularly care for the cupcakes. The cupcake was more like a muffin (which is what another reviewer said) and I prefer the lighter, more cake- like cupcakes. The frosting wasn't that great either. It was very dense. My kids didn't even like it and that says alot. It is a good concept though. Maybe just not my type of cupcake.

Yuck – How can you make a bad cupcake? Well, these people mangage to! I fell for the hype and was sorely disappointed. The outer part of the cupcake had a crust more like a muffin than a cupcake. I tired chocolate with white icing and red velvet. Neither one was good so I don't get the popularity of this place. I wanted to be a believer!

Yum! – While browsing the shops on South Congress, my family wandered across the street to get some cupcakes in honor of my brother-in-law's birthday. We each got a different kind and all raved about our cupcakes. It was a very hot day so unfortunately the free shot of whipped cream you could have squirted into the cupcake wasn't an option cause the whipped cream was not cold enough and the bottled waters we got were only slightly chilled, but that is understandable considering the tiny trailer. The cupcakes are the perfect ... read more

Dry and nothing special – I'm assuming the first 3 posts were from owners/employees trying to generate hype (that's how they read anyway). I'm all down with the idea of gourmet cupcakes and don't mind paying $3 for a cupcake if it's great, but it was the most pathetic attempt at a cupcake. I had the Red Velvet and it was SO DRY. A Betty Crocker box-mix cupcake is a million times more delicious. Also annoying was I bought one for my husband and had to BUY a little box to put it in, I think it was 50cents? He thought his white... read more

fun atmosphere- cupcakes not so good : ( – I would go there to hang out on the wonderful soco strip, but not really to eat because the cupcakes are too sugary sweet- bad cheap icing. We all bought one each, but we couldn't even finish half of it. Super hippie-420 friendly staff and the guitarist jamming next to the mobile was cool too.

Are they the Great! – I love cupcakes and with all the hype about Hey Cupcakes I took a trip on last Wednesday to buy several in different flavors. My mouth was watering for the Butter cream Vanilla cupcake, so I took the first bite in hopes to taste the butter in the butter cream frosting. What a disappointment. The cupcake taste like a wedding cake icing that is made with Crisco and the cake wasn?t that great either. In regards to the other flavors like the butter cream chocolate it was not sweet enough. If you like the tr... read more

Take time to smell the Cupcakes! – These are the best cupcakes I have ever had. They are very moist and yummy! I live in north Round Rock and will take a field trip with friends to just go and get a cupcake. Love these guys!

Cupcake Crazy!!! Sweet and Fun treat.... – I went to Hey Cupcake today and was in cupcake heaven. The cupcakes were great, moist and delicious. There was limited seating outside, but saw a few people just lingering around talking. The service was great, and they were served with a smile. A great little piece of Austin, everyone should encounter!
