Batch Cupcakery

This was one of my many visits to Batch Cupcakery and they kind of disappointed me. The price was a bit expensive for my taste. Usually, when I come here, the cupcakes are moist and delicious. I got a pumpkin cupcake with cream cheese frosting this time and the cupcake ended up being a little bit dry. My experience this time fell a little flat and I hope that my upcoming ones are better than this

These cupcakes were great. not too sweet… very moist. I read the one bad review, but that was for the Reno location. I guess they are not stored as well as these ones are. I was very happy with the quality of all of the cupcakes we ordered.

This review is for the Reno location.
Midtown is a nice area, but parking is… well, a batch. My friend and I arrived around 12:30, which meant there was no parking available in the parking lot of this building. I parked nearby and later moved my car, but my friend wasn’t so lucky… she got towed. I realize this isn’t Batch’s fault, but while the location seems nice, parking is a pain in the ass, so don’t go during the lunch hour.
The cupcakery is small, with tall tables and chairs to sit down on. My group opted for outside seating since it was a nice day. The cupcakes are featured on cupcake tiers which makes them look nice… but they also looked dry. And they tasted dry. $ 2.98 per cupcake.
I had a taste of the Sweetheart (red velvet), Butterscotch and Pumpkin. The red velvet was good cake, but dry, and the frosting was delish. Butterscotch was really just a dry, vanilla cake with butterscotch drizzled all over the top. Not bad. The pumpkin had a nice, spicy cake, but the frosting was too sweet and it had mini chocolate chips on top, which to me, is an odd combo. The pumpkin may have been vegan/​gluten free, which could account for the frosting’s flavor.
Overall, I don’t think I’ll go back. The parking issue + the dry cakes don’t entice me much. I have been to Mix Cupcake Co multiple times and the parking is never an issue, the cupcakes are kept in a cooled bakery display case, plus its cheaper there ($ 2.50).
Not bad if you’re in the Midtown area already, but don’t go out of your way. Try Mix instead and you can compare the two yourself.

I have not personally been here myself, BUT my sister brought back a cupcake to the lodge and when I took a bite, my mouth died and went to heaven.
I’m not a huge cupcake fan, not even a regular fan, but this cupcake… changed my life forever.
Ok, maybe that was a bit too dramatic and maybe I was already craving some dessert when I took that first bite, but still! I’m sure I’d still love it if I were to try it again.
The cupcake I’m talking about is THE FROSTBITE. That delicious, yet not overpowering, mint frosting with a chunk of Andes mint chocolate candy on top of a chocolate cupcake is one of the best I’ve ever tried.
Can’t wait to come back for another taste!

I saw the sign for this place a couple weeks ago and knew I HAD to try it. But Squaw was so ridiculously crowded that day and I had my dog with me so I didn’t make it back there. But went to Squaw today to check out the pagan :) Earth Day festival Meandered kinda directly TO the cupcakery :)
I stuck with a tried and true cupcake classic — the red velvet — and it was yum. A lot of places don’t make their cream cheese frosting correctly but theirs was very good. And they had other cupcakes with the cream cheese frosting so that will entice me to try those flavors next!
They had a pretty large selection of flavors so I will need to go back as 1 cupcake is enough for me — they are the large Sprinkles-​sized cupcakes so good to share. The vanilla with vanilla butter cream and pretty sprinkles also looked good, the smores, the chocolate on chocolate and more.
I’m not sure if they recently opened? The inside looks like they haven’t quite settled in but I hope they do :)
