Cake Gypsy

Absolutely to die for cupcakes! Best I’ve ever had and probably ever will! So many flavored to choose from that it’s hard to leave with only a few!

The BEST cupcakes in town! Always a favorite and an easy way to make someone’s day!

I’ve been a few times and each time it has been great. The people working are very nice, very nice service. Every cup cake I have tried has been wonderful.
I went in today and asked about their watermelon cup cake and I loved it. It tastes incredibly like a watermelon.
And of course all of their other cupcakes are ¹⁰⁄₁₀ would and will eat again.

Pretty much every Friday I find myself here after pick n mix. Whether with my friends, or myself; I end up buying a cupcake or an Oreo, thanking Quetzalcoatl that he had the wisdom to create chocolate, and thanking Xanath that she was so bold as to stand up to the God of happiness and her father so that she would then be turned into vanilla.
What am I getting at here? Their Oreos and cupcakes are godly and you will be punished for defying the gods if you do not eat their food.

I absolutely love Cake Gypsy. The cupcake flavors are all great and my favorite is Key Lime!!! The cake is soft and moist and the frosting/​cake ratio is exactly right! The staff is always friendly and the price point isn’t bad.
You can tell the store is run by people that care about their customers and work hard to produce excellent cakes and cupcakes. The tire is very colorful and cupcakes are organized and labeled well. You can ask the associate about any flavor to learn more. Definitely try the Cake Gypsy!

Love Cake Gypsy and their gluten-​free cupcakes! They offer vanilla, chocolate, or rainbow cupcakes and you can choose what frosting you like (they have tons of options). They also offer gluten free cookies and brownies. Make sure to try the watermelon cupcake during the summer — it’s beautiful to look at and delicious! The coconut frosting is also amazing, as is their basic cream cheese. Thank you Cake Gypsy for bringing awesome gluten-​free baked goods to the area!

Deanna and her team have done it again with the new location. I’m so happy to see that they’re doing well enough to open a second one. The cupcakes are incredible. My kids consider it a very exciting outing if we head to the Cake Gypsy to pick out a dessert for the night. They also LOVE the milkshakes they started at the Canton location. You will never have a better milkshake! They’re not inexpensive, but they are premium shakes and they are HUGE. One is probably enough for two kids (in their dreams I order them one apiece). This place is special and excellent. Solves all my dessert problems when I’m bringing dessert to a dinner party.

My oh my, what a nice little gem. This place popped up on my Unilocal feed multiple times and the pictures were so enticing that I just had to try it! After a few missed turns, I finally got to the place. Let me just say, I was not disappointed!
Cake Gypsy is located on Route 44 in the cute little shopping district, just before the Route 10 intersection. It’s a bit hard (more than a bit) to see from the road, so I had to a take a few detours to actually get there.
Upon going, I was excited to see that I was not misled by the pictures on Unilocal.They did have a massive selection of cupcakes. I was able to browse around for a while and the staff was very patient. I was impressed because I stopped by after work at around 6 PM and there was still a large selection even though they close at 7. Additionally, the cupcake did not feel or taste stale at all! The cupcakes were simply delicious. It was not too sweet so I didn’t feel nauseous by the end of a chocolate one. I also got a few truffles and chocolate covered Oreos which I have yet to try, but am sure they’re delicious. (I figured the calories from a cupcake was enough for day. Yay self control!)
The service was also great. My cashier appeared to be a high schooler, but was very patient and pleasant to talk to. She didn’t mind me clunking my way around the counter trying to decide on what I want. She was also very accommodating after I had decided.
This is probably going to be one of my favorite cupcake places. Overall very good. A+ for you Cake Gypsy!

Yay! A Cake Gypsy that is even CLOSER than the other location.
This is our go to place for fresh cupcakes. Lots of varieties and big cupcakes that are good enough to share.
The staff is very friendly, offering up suggestions. And there are often a big variety of cupcakes to choose from. The salted caramel is my favorite at the time.

I had heard about Cake Gypsy from friends and been craving cupcakes for about a week so when I saw that the ROTD (Congrats, Brigit) was on Cake Gypsy today I took it as a sign to go. Now I’m buzzing from a sugar high. Worth it though.
I stopped in mid-​afternoon around 3pm. The selection of cupcakes was still very good, but they definitely sold out of some of them. Even still there were plenty to choose from. Some available flavors: key lime, carrot, salted caramel, mocha. I went with a red velvet and s’mores. I ate the red velvet cupcake in the car and it was everything a red velvet should be down to the perfect cream cheese frosting. I tried to save the s’mores cupcake for the boyfriend, but gave in 5 minutes ago. It was also delicious.
I didn’t pay much attention to the other offerings at the store as I was only interested in the cupcakes but there was a wall of candy and another pastry case of cannoli, dipped cookies (I think?) and some other stuff. There is a small sitting bar area toward the window. The bubblegum cutesy décor would make any little girl (or boy, if they’re into that) happy.

This place is a great little gem on Rt 44. Its a little hard to see off the road (tip: Its by the UPS), but the selection is massive and the service is great. They let you take your time looking at all the cupcakes, and will make some on the spot in case the one you wanted is out. The prices are pretty reasonable. Keep in mind that they are regular sized cupcakes (no muffin-​sized Crumbs cakes here), which is great for sharing.
The canolis are also great.
While I was there I saw people asking about large orders for birthday parties, which I assume is very popular with them. I’ll keep that in mind for my next event.
Also, the hours are perfect. They are open during my drive home from work (Simsbury to West Hartford), so this might get dangerous.

There’s a lot to like about Cake Gypsy. The staff is really attentive and helpful. The selection is plentiful. The cupcakes are really good. They’ll even whip up whatever you’d like if it’s not one of the 20+ that they are offering. We’ve special ordered a bunch of stuff for events (gender reveal party cupcakes?) and have always been pleasantly surprised.

Finally! Cake Gypsy has opened its second store, and in a very convenient location along Route 44 so I can stop in to stock up on delicious cupcakes!
Cake Gypsy has classic, basic flavored cakes with unique frosting and topping combinations to make truly delicious cupcakes. The bakers of this shop make over 30 flavors of cupcakes every day including gluten free, vegan, and sugar free. You’ll definitely be able to find a flavor you’ll love. You can’t go wrong with the flavors here!
The bakers even made mini cupcakes for customers to sample on opening day! I got a mini salted caramel cupcake with a little homemade caramel candy on top as well as a mini orange cake with orange frosting that tasted just like a creamsicle.
When you stop in, try my favorite: the Snickerdoodle, a vegan (made without dairy) cinnamon cake. It’s absolutely delicious! Also be sure to try anything with the mocha frosting. Yum!
Also created by the staff are homemade chocolates and truffles, with an entire wall of the shop featuring other candy treats. The shop also has a coffee and Gypsy Tea bar with over 20 flavors of artisan and organic teas. The shop will also be featuring other bakery items daily and have weekly specials.
Cake Gypsy’s tremendous success with these treats as well as support from its patrons has led to a wonderful second storefront, which is beautifully decorated and laid out nicely. The only downside of this new location is that it is not handicap accessible. It’s a step up from the curb, then a step up to the building’s front door, then a step up into the shop.
The staff at Cake Gypsy, including owner Deanna, is incredibly kind and hardworking. They make cupcakes constantly, so you know what you get it incredibly fresh, especially with the high turnover since so many stop in!
A key concept that I will undoubtedly take advantage of: a customer loyalty and reward program. I get rewarded for eating cupcakes? Yes!
If you want fresh, scrumptious cupcakes, then visit Cake Gypsy. There’s a reason the owner opened a second location!
