Sprinkles Cupcakes

This is perhaps the best cup cake place in all of Los Angeles. The red velvet cup cake particularly is a must-have. Service is quick, but the lines are super long. Be prepared to wait anywhere from 15 mins on a week night to almost an hour on weekends. Cup Cakes are pricier here than other places at around $4.50. Parking is available on the street or at a parking garage nearby.The reason this place got 4 stars in my book - because they don't have a decent seating area. Very crowded and there is standing room if that. Lines form down the block sometimes. Once you purchase, your best option is to either wolf it down in a corner or take it to go.

The cup cakes that were delivered to my daughters school was a big disappointment when we tasted them! They had this nasty after taste to them maybe like they were frozen and the frosting was so nasty they it was not edible to eat. NEVER AGAIN! What a waste of money and even ruined my daughters birthday! The Vanilla Bake Shop in Santa Monica is the Best. They are always fresh!

My roommate works for the State of California and travels from Ventura down to LA frequently. On one of her last jaunts, she told me that Sprinkles was down the street and asked if I would like to try their cupcakes. Me, being a total sweets lover, told her to get a box full. She obliged! She came home with fresh-out-of-the-oven cupcakes that were totally adorable. There was a strawberry one, a lemony one, chocolate, etc. I think there was even an orange one in there. So we sat down at our kitchen table and started chowing down... and we both stopped halfway through our giant sized cupcakes. She said hers tasted like a strawberry muffin - not soft and airy, but heavy and thick. My chocolate one tasted like a Costco muffin. The frosting tasted like it was full of preservatives. Almost a little acidic. It wasn't bad - but it wasn't what either of us were expecting, either. We traded the other and tried another bite. Consensus was the same. We left the table dissatisfied and short a good amount of money (they're not cheap!). I would eat them again, but I won't be as excited until they taste a little less like muffins and more like soft and airy cupcakes. The decoration and colors are totally cute, though.

I love my Sprinkles, from the first time that I seen them on Oprah I had to have one, when I got there to get one........OMG!!!! I live in MORENO valley, Ca, so everytime I go to L.a which is like every 2 weeks me and my sister are there, The Red Velvet Cupcake is to Die for.

HEAVENLY, MOIST, BETTER THAN AN EXCELLENT CAKE BAKER, HAVING TASTE, AND TO DIE FOR. Other famous cupcakes, other great cupcakes, just don't have the moistness and flavor. Others that I've tasted look good, but NOT TASTE AND A LITTLE DRY. From Beverly Hills to Santa Barbara and other cupcakes so called experts, just don't get it--don't have it.SPRINKLES CUPCAKES HAVE IT AND THEY GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
