Fluellen Cupcakes

One of my guilty pleasures is eating a cupcake I’ve now tried it three different cupcakes my favorite banana putting cupcake I’m not a chocolate eater don’t hate me but I can honestly say this is one of the best cupcakes I’ve ever had and we’ve got a sprinkles close to our home

Not the best cupcakes, i tried different types and all of them were way too sweet, the cream wasn’t fresh enough neither

I tried Fluellen Cupcakes for the first time last night and overall, I was not impressed. I sampled the red velvet, chocolate with vanilla icing, strawberry, and vanilla cupcakes. The red velvet was pretty average, I found the cake part to be a big dry. The chocolate cupcake was ok but nothing to write home about. The strawberry cupcake was just nasty-​bad flavor and consistency. However, the vanilla cupcake was pretty good. Next time, I’ll just go to Sprinkles.

For this cupcakery to be so highly rated I was quite disappointed. I went in on a Sunday evening right before catching a departing flight out of the city. The flavor combinations intrigued me but the actual taste of the cupcakes I purchased left me very unsatisfied. The icing was good but the cake was not moist at all, had me wondering how long ago they were baked. Anyway if possible I’d try other options nearby next time.

I was walking around downtown and just stopped by. I got the banana pudding cupcake and it was sooo good. The cake was fluffy, not too much icing, and pudding filling was yummy. It was really big though so I’d recommend sharing a cupcake with somebody so you don’t get a sugar rush! I will certainly be back here.

Great location downtown! I was able to park in a parking garage on the same block and stop by to get a birthday cupcake and walk to my other destinations downtown. It was great! I tried the banana pudding one and it was great. It ended up being in my car the entire trip back to Missouri before I ate it and it still was moist and delicious even 7 hours after purchase.

Awesome cupcakes!!! I got the strawberry, wedding cake and banana pudding. Very big and moist. Some of the best cupcakes I have ever had!

This cupcake shop is set up like a little café with tables, chairs, and turquoise/​brown décor. It feels inviting when you walk in, but quickly goes downhill from there. There’s a display case in the center of the counter, showing the flavors they have available. There were two little fruit flies buzzing around in that display case, sampling the products.
My friend and I decided to split a cupcake. I asked for hot tea. They were out of tea. I asked for hot water. They were unable to make hot water (their kettle broke). We got our cupcake and planned to eat it in their space, but they were out of forks and almost out of napkins.
Out of curiosity, I wanted to ask for coffee to see if they were out of that/​unable to make that too. The server was unapologetic and certainly apathetic that they weren’t able to provide many basic items that a café should be able to provide. I think any food service establishment should have the capability to boil water.
My friend and I had walked 3 miles around Dallas (she was visiting from L.A.), and we desperately needed a snack — otherwise we would have walked out. In fact, a few people did walk out while we were there because the service was so slow… or maybe they saw the fruit flies.
The cupcake was ok, though who knows how many fruit flies were buzzing around the kitchen in the back. I happen to have a high tolerance for that kind of thing, since I’ve traveled a lot in third world countries, but it’s really poor presentation/​cleanliness for a place that charges $ 2 for a cupcake.

A bit pricey $ 4 each but large cupcakes (Costco muffin sized). The frosting is super sweet and most cupcakes have cream cheese as the primary ingredient. The banana pudding was the most moist cupcake I’ve ever had. The cookies n crème was standard. Not a ton of chocolate options –surprisingly, the Reese’s cupcake has a white cake base. I would have expected/​preferred chocolate or peanut butter. I’d give them 3.5 stars but bumping up to 4 for friendly service.

Dont get me wrong here. They make good cupcakes. But the real problem that I had is they seem mushy. When I bite into them, they dont have any structure. Nothing to sink my teeth in. Some people may not see a problem, but it is to me. Other than that, these cupcakes are surprisingly not super sweet. The buttercream frosting is solid, and the Reese’s cupcake was quite good. These cupcakes were a bit pricey, but I guess being downtown allows you to do that.

Had the half and half, which was big, soft and fluffy. Wasn’t crazy about the frosting, or the chocolate half. The chocolate was a bit too bitter for my liking. I’m also a fan of tight cupcakes that hold together and Fluellen makes them more on the crumbly side. But hey, for anyone strolling downtown with 4 bucks and a sugar craving, try this one out.

Oh Fluellen, why do you have to be so disappointing?
I think I got spoiled by having better cupcake shops in the tiny little rust belt town I came from, believe it or not. After hearing a friend rave about the famous Sprinkles cupcakes last year, I finally made the long trek to get them and waited in line for 45 minutes. They were good, but certainly not convenient at all. So a few coworkers in downtown Dallas said Fluellen’s was amazing and I gave them a chance.
Judging by some of my reviews, I may seem a little picky. That’s definitely true when it comes to cupcakes! Overall Fluellen’s cupcakes were just okay; not gross but totally not worth the $ 4 per cupcake, either! The cupcakes are very pretty (and large) and the cake part is ok, but the frosting is pretty flavorless and dry. I can’t see myself ever craving these.
Le sigh. I guess my search continues for a really good cupcake in DFW.

I’m new to the neighborhood so I’ve been exploring and saw the sign «The best cupcakes on the planet» so I had to try them out. Nice atmosphere, the young lady behind the counter told me to try the banana pudding flavor and it is as delicious as she said it was! All of the flavor see tried were amazing. The snickers, the strawberry shortcake and the cookies and cream all had us on cloud 9. I will return to try out their coffee.

I had really high expectations for these cupcakes but they were just subpar. We tried the black velvet, red velvet, snickers and German chocolate. Cake quality was good but the icing was just way too overpowering. If you are a fan of really sweet buttercream frosting then go for it but I like lighter flavors with some cream cheese whipped in.
Best out of those were the German chocolate and maybe the red velvet but it just didn’t meet my expectations. Also, price is high.

All three stars go to taste. This place has delicious cupcakes that I have got on many occasions. My absolute favorite is the Banana Pudding. It’s so delicous and sweet. Topped with a Nila Wafer.
The customer service is awful. The girls here never smile and don’t care to make suggestions. I know they’re cupcakes but I feel awkward when I’m there. It makes me want to look for a better cupcakery.

I bought the orange dreamiscle, carrot cake and in the past banana pudding. Only one complaint, the icing is too sweet. The carrot cake icing was fine. It complimented the cake very well. The orange dreamiscle cake was very good, too. There seemed to be a orange simple syrup on the cupcake and then icing put over it. It was just too sweet for me. I ate half and afterward drank a whole bottle of water!
Overall, I love the feel of the shop. Very cute, classy, and clean! I would go back and try another cupcake. If the sugar is reduced a little that would be nice!

Wonderful selections! Fresh and very enjoyable! Would recommend to anyone with a sweet tooth.

I tried the Black Velvet and the Lemon Delight, both were excellent in their own unique way. I must have been in the mood for tart because I preferred the lemon; a nice and light cake with tangy flavor.
The cakes are large so don’t shirk the $ 4 price; they’re worth it. I especially like that they are not overloaded with frosting. Very often I have to scrape more than half off the typical bakery cake. These have just the right amount!
It would be nice if they went the extra ‘inch’ and used bakery boxes that have cardboard inserts to hold the cakes in place while in transit so they arrive as lovely as when they left the shop.

TIP*TIP*TIP* coming… These are still hands down the best cupcakes I’ve ever eaten but now they’ve improved my favorite cupcake. I’ve been waiting to write this review because I wanted to take a photo but I keep eating the thing before I remember to take the picture. Seriously! The NEW peanut butter cupcake smashes the first one. The new one is white cake that really does melt in your mouth and it has Reese’s peanut butter cups inside of the cake. On top, there’s this magical whipped peanut butter flavored icing, drizzled chocolate, and chunks of more Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Do not talk to me when I’m holding one of these. A random guy tried to have a conversation with me the last time I was in and I wanted to hide underneath the table while throwing forks at him just to make him stop.
TIP I got so angry because I didn’t know there is a frequent shopper card! I spent like $ 50 in May alone because of my addiction to these cupcakes. Randomly I joked, «You people should have a frequent shopper card in here or something.» Then the clerk said, «We do.» Shocked and appalled, I challenged, «Why didn’t nobody tell me?!!» She admitted that they won’t tell you unless you ask. TIP: ASK!!! After just 12, you get 2 free and we all know nobody buys just one! You can thank me for this tip by donating $ 1 to my cupcake fund. You’re welcome.

A sterile tiled taupe mall environment my Mom might find cute is usually vacate.
Don’t let that hold you back. Every once in awhile there will be a single middle aged woman consuming one of the many flavors on her lonesome.
Join her, as I do, at a nearby table in spiritual peace.
The strawberry shortcake cupcake has been my staple — moist clean cake with fresh buttercream it’s like the best of simple pleasure and as satisfying as regular sex.
It’s like a temple. I got adventurous recently and tried the orange dreamsicle, which was just as satisfyingly delicious as my usual strawberry order.
Atmosphere — the fluorescent lighting might make you feel like your at a hospital cafeteria.
Cupcakes are large — $ 4, with several flavors like wedding cake, carrot and more.
The mini cupcakes are available to order only by the dozen and might be nice for a party.
