Today was my first visit to The Cake Box, and I feel a bit premature giving them a rating after just one visit. I tried the chocolate peanut butter cupcake, and while I really enjoyed the chocolate peanut butter icing, I found the cupcake to be a bit bland. The shop itself was quite cute. I really like the look of all of their cakes, though they seem a bit pricey(the tiny cake in the display was $ 30, and was maybe only 4−6″ round). The cakes are nicely decorated, and if it is true that they have cake decorating classes, I would consider giving them a try.

at first i was going to give 2 stars only because when i tried the red velvet cupcake, it didn’t taste anything special. I’ve tasted better red velvet cakes and there was too much cream cheese for my liking. Also, as a cupcake specialty store, i felt their cupcakes were a bit small and didn’t look or taste much of quality. However, I gave it 3 stars because when I took a bite of my friend’s double mint chocolate cupcake, the mint flavour was very well mixed with the chocolate in the cake which was pretty good. Also, their setting was nicely designed and decorated too.

If u live in Guelph as I do, there really arent many options for cupcakes shops nearby. So for a decent cupcake u have to drive over to the Cake Box in Kitchener. It is a real standout in the area, there isnt much else to do in the area but go in for a cupcake and a coffee. Cake Box proudly displays a large slection of dummy cakes around their café, but are instructed not to touch them. They have a slection of about 10 cupcakes. I have had their Vanilla Raspberry with white chocolate buttercream. It was a real buttercream and it was delicious. I have also had the Rocky Road Cupcake with chocolate buttercream, marshmallow, and nuts it was also good. One of the coolest parts about cake box is the bakery is open concept so you can watch the girls assemble cakes. They also provide cake decorating classes.
