The Whimsical Cupcake

red velvet chip cupcake — very good.
i like that they put the chocolate chips in them

I have actually never written a Unilocal review before but feel like I must as both the cupcakes and service from Sandy are beyond sublime. Yes, once you factor in the delivery fee you can certainly find a cheaper cupcake out there however, you definitely get what you pay for! I have ordered from Sandy at least three times in the past few years and each time the cupcakes have been fabulous and the delivery prompt — prompt like almost to the minute. I just ordered the Heart of Marshmallow and the Mellow Yellow Lemon for a party and although I did not get to try the lemon (they were gone!) I can say the Heart of Marshmallow ones were beyond amazing. Unbelievably good and worth every penny! Thanks Sandy! I can’t wait to have an event that I can order from you again!

Incredible service, very professional but also with a lot of heart. The delivery was precisely on time on a Sunday and everything was packed very nicely with high quality containers and bag.
The cupcakes are simply the best I’ve ever had. Got a nice variety of regular size and jarred cupcakes. Every flavor we ordered, particularly the salted caramel, was outstanding.
The price is pretty steep at first glance, but the cakes are worth every penny. Don’t waste your money on subpar baked goods at a grocery store or Coldstone when a business like this is local (and delivers!!).

Excellent cupcakes! Can’s say enough good things about the quality of the goods and the professionalism of the management.
Highly recommend!

I really wanted to like this place. Two stars for the cupcakes looking really pretty and professional…
Minus a star for delivery charge. I mean this place doesn’t actually have a location, your only option is to deliver… Shouldn’t a delivery price already be included in the cupcake price. After ordering a dozen and having the delivery charge these cupcakes end up costing more than the brand name places like Sprinkles or Kara’s.
Minus another star… Ok expensive cupcakes, I get it. it’s the trend now. But the cake itself lacked flavor. The bottom cake literally had no tastes and the frosting was overly sweet. Most people did not finish the cupcake they had because it just seemed like a waste of calories. Minus another star because the texture of the cake was crumbly and messy… dry like. Maybe that’s why it lacked flavor?
It’s a shame. I really wanted to like this place and there were so many good reviews on Unilocal… I feel like Unilocal disappointed me this time, our company probably will not be using Whimsical Cupcake again for our functions. :(
Update: 10/​18/​2013 almost the end of the workday I see HR walking to me… Apparently someone from the whimsical cupcake called my company asking if a «Belinda T. from Fremont, CA works there» Umm, creepy much? I’ve gotten messages and replies from businesses but I must say this is the first time I’ve been tracked down by phone call.

Excellent mini cupcakes and regular Mama sized were ordered for my kid’s 2^nd birthday — The purple sprinkle custom cakes were scoffed in next to no time — and Since i ordered far too many, I’ve been scoffing them for the past 3 days and they’re still good! Great door to door service, on time — Will be re booking for sure) Thanks

LOVE the cupcakes. full sized, mini, whatever size – they’re delicious. Vanilla Sprinkle (call me old fashioned) is to die for. Plus, they deliver! Very competitively priced, actually cheaper that most cupcake shops. do yourself a favor and order a dozen or two!

OMG! The Whimsical Cupcake, oh how I love thee :)
These cupcakes are highly habit-​forming, and adorable too. I ordered 3 dozen for my son’s birthday party. We tried the Banana Supreme, Vanilla Vanilla Sprinkle and Heart of Marshmallow. All 3 were absolutely delicious and it’s impossible to pick a favorite. I can say that the Marshmallow ones went fast, the kids devoured them (but I had one and it was amazing). Their prices seem average when compared to all the other cupcake shops. They took my order on fairly short notice and they delivered to the restaurant that we has our party at.
I am so very pleased with their customer services and their yummy cups of heaven :) I can’t wait to place another order!!!

I ordered cupcakes for my mum’s birthday. Sandy said that she would delivery on a SUNDAY between 1pm and 2pm. Well, at 1:10pm Sandy showed up with these amamzing cupcakes. Now, everytime I have had something delivered, they never get there when they say they will. I was very pleased when Sandy showed up. Talk about customer service, being there when she said she would be there. Then the cupcakes WOW… I have tasted many cupcakes, and by far these are the best cupcakes. They were so moist, not dry or heavy, and the frosting, out of this world. Most frostings that have tried have always had the oily texture, not The Whimsical Cupcake, the frosting was light, fluffy and not overbearing sweet. I give The Whimsical Cupcake a big thumbs up. I would certainly use them again and certainily recomend them to my friends and family. Oh yes and to top it off, Sandy put a lovely birthday cake pin on the front. Thank-​you Sandy.

The Whimsical Cupcake was gracious in donating mini cupcakes to our poker fundraiser supporting the troops in Afghanistan. We had a few different varieties and all were absolutely amazing! Only problem was we put them out too early and they got gobbled up early in the evening… next time we wait til later! Everyone raved about how great they were and I will definitely recommend Whimsical to my family and friends. Thank you for your support!

I love to eat and I always appreciate it when food is well prepared, and that includes the sweet variety.
Love these cupcakes!
They were so moist and the flavorful — definitely didn’t scrimp on ingredients!
So far my favorites are the red velvet and peanut butter kiss (didn’t expect that)

Woohoo! Fantastic cupcakes! You don’t want to miss these moist, yummy cupcakes made by Sandy Ordunia! She makes them all from scratch and she doesn’t just put icing, the toppings are made from granache with chopped chocolate or peanut butter, cream cheese etc. Wow! They are super delicious! I can’t wait to give them away for the holidays or serve them at a party!
