Just Cupcakes
While I've always had a passion for baking, I will always have a bigger love for family, friends, and creating amazing things for both; this is what I inspired our desserts after. Handcrafted with love and care, our nostalgic treats are made to perfection with only the best ingredients. Since opening out doors, 10 years ago, we've moved to expand our offerings and have since had the opportunity to do very interesting things.

The Just Cupcakes team and I have been fortunate to appear four times on the Food Networks popular Cupcake Wars, be named Best Cupcakes in the Eastern Region by the Virginia Living, Best of Hampton Roads Best of the Best, and have created the official cupcakes for Virginias very own Neptune Festival.

I would give it no stars but apparently I’m not allowed to do that. the staff was very rude and disrespectful. I ordered a cake on Monday and I asked for one of the employees to wash her hands and she looked at me like I was wrong. I received the cake and it was definitely not worth my money when I called and demanded to speak to the manager she hung up on me I will never give my money to this establishment please be cautious of this place

I ordered a custom cake for a birthday dinner and it was two weeks in advanced to the date. The staff is very accommodating and nice while I was there placing my order. However, when I got the cake it was not what I was expecting. It was pretty dry and way too sweet and the designs made the cake seem as if it was made too early prior to the pickup date. I was told the cake was layered inside but when it was cut into the layer of cake was very minimal and the icing between was very thick. Overall, the cake was not worth the money spent on it and was very much average.

Yesterday was my first time trying a cupcake from Just Cupcakes, and I was NOT disappointed. They exceeded my expectations. The mango infused buttercream icing paired with the flavorful cupcake was superb. The perfect blend of flavors.. If you have not tried their cupcakes, I highly recommend that you do!

The best birthday cupcake I have had in a long time. The cupcake was light and airy and the frosting was whipped perfection. They are also the perfect size.

They were just average cupcakes. Not worth $40 for 12 cupcakes. Pretty Dry. Better off going to the grocery store. Also stated I don’t like chocolate and was given 3 out of the 12 as chocolate.

Beautiful cupcakes! Really nice service. I loved the design but wished the cake and icing were more flavorful. They were sweet but not super flavorful other than chocolate and not chocolate.

Me and my daughter had a great first time experience here at the cake pops were delicious and we got one of every cupcake which was soft and the icing was so good we also got a sample of some sherbet, raspberry, that the owners had made and it was really good

Just Cupcakes was so accommodating to my last minute inquiry for mermaid cupcakes for my daughter’s birthday. The cupcakes were a hit at the party and my husband repeatedly said they were the best cupcakes he’s ever had. I highly recommend this wonderful cupcake shop!

Cupcakes galore! I would have included a picture of the red velvet and Oreo cupcakes that I purchased, but after "just one bite to taste it" I inhaled them both.

The cupcakes in question: SUPER MOIST! I said it and I meant it. The cake itself was automatic and had the lightest texture so you could fully enjoy the fluffy frosting and the soft cake all in one bite. My personal fav was the Oreo cupcake, the Oreo filling frosting went with the rich soft chocolate cake like a glove.

The actual cupcake store: Adorable! Wanna a cute fun way to end a date walking around Ghent? This place

Ordered 4 dozen cupcakes for a certain time with a certain look. Part vegan and part regular. We gave them the picture of a flower that they have made in the past and of course ours did not look like that. We also paid extra for clear individual containers due to COVID. To say the least, the cupcakes taste good but did not receive the desired look on them as requested nor did we receive the clear containers by were placed in individual unmarked boxes. I would only suggest this company for basic purchases only. Does not seem to get the correct order on time. Again good flavor poor at following

I got my anniversary cake from here, and it was fantastic! The cake was moist, the buttercream was buttery, and the colors were on point. My favorite part was the fact that the buttercream didn't overwhelm the cake, it was a perfect balance between the two. I also ordered vegan sticky buns, and they were delicious! I couldn't tell that they were vegan, and neither could my dedicated carnivore husband. I would definitely recommend Just Cupcakes to anyone looking for a sweet treat.

The cupcakes are great! Today my sweetooth was kicking so was about ta splurge on cookies and cakes right... Hold the phone! Did she just reach in there and pick up cupcakes without gloves? (Acting like her hand didn't touch the icing) My sweetooth kicking, so Imma let it slide. Cause most of the icing gets scraped. But then HELL NO! She reached in and grabbed a snickerdoodle cookie with she bare hand. I put her in check and told she lost a customer. If she do that in your face then just imagine...!4:00pm April 26, 2021.

I highly recommend this shop!❤ I was in a rush to get some cookies and cupcakes for my daughter's baby shower. I was in S.C. and doing what I could over the phone and email. The owner asked me to email pics I found of what I wanted. She immediately got back to me. Made then with time to spare and exactly like the pictures. And DELICIOUS!!
I don't like things overly sweet. These were perfect, and everyone loved them. And kept asking for the name of the bakery...Thank you sooo much!

NOT COVID FRIENDLY!!!!
I came here about a week ago and this lady at the front wasn't wearing gloves at all. Not to take my order nor to pick up the cupcakes....she literally touched my cupcake in the middle of a dang pandemic, how crazy is that. So if you don't like people touching you food before you eat it DO NOT COME HERE....
Worst place ever!!!
They also had a huge pile of dishes right when you walk in you can see it and looked like dishes from weeks ago, unbelievable....

Should have called this place Un-Just Cupcakes. "Bad" is not a bad enough word to describe these flat, sad little poo-balls of disappointment. If my mom (who was a god-awful baker) had made something this bad she'd have thrown them out before she let me take them to the grade school bake sale. i got 3 things. Chocolate with Butter Cream Frosting (shudder). My question: shouldn't "butter cream frosting" maybe have butter? and cream? Apparently not at Just-Not Cupcakes. Apparently they're of the opinion that 'butter cream' really means 'Crisco Sugar

I went there about a week ago and I didn't enjoy it at all. I paid almost $20 for 4 cupcakes that didn't even taste good. The frosting was hard, the cupcakes were sticking to the wrapping.
They tasted like they were almost a week old....NOT RECOMMEND, save your money and bake your own!!!!

Ah! I remember this place when we first lived in Virginia 7 years ago. This is a new location for them. They had so many flavors to chose from. The sales associate helped me pick out a few. The red velvet was my favorite. The cake to icing ratio is nice. There was not a large amount of icing which was appreciated. The pricing was reasonable and there was a military discount. I suggest following their social media accounts for updates and events

Great little place. Such a wide selection of truly decadent pastries. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Veteran owned on top of it all. If you're close by this deserves a visit.

I was craving some cupcakes and decided to give this place a shot. This restaurant wasn't hard to find because it's hot pink and neon outdoor sign and cute tables really make it pop out from its surroundings.

I ordered two Kitcat cupcakes and one velvet cupcake. While I enjoyed the KitKat cupcakes, I didn't really taste the dark chocolate in the cake base as much as I would've wanted to. However, I do give props on the vanilla bean cream cheese topping on the red velvet cupcake. It was rich, while at the same time not overwhelmingly sweet or vanilla-flavored!

Soooo good!! Great selection and all the ones I have tried have been delicious. Lucky Charms, Mint Cookie, Cookies-n-Cream, to name my most recent treats. New owners are doing a great job and are offering more vegan and gluten free options.

We just wanted to extend a huge thank you for making our daughter's 1st birthday party beautiful, magical and delicious! We cannot thank the owner Carla and staff enough for creating the most adorable unicorn inspired cupcakes on such short notice. Not only were the cupcakes super cute, they were also moist and delicious. The red velvet, milk chocolate and funfetti were a hit for the kids and adults.

P.S. Don't fret if your party is on a Sunday and you need to pickup the day before like we did. The cupcakes remained fresh and tasted as if we had just picked them up that day!

Love these cupcake, I've eaten a dozen over the weekend and don't feel guilty at all!! I also let my slide know that for my 5th 21st Birthday, I would like Just Cupcakes versus a cake.

I might even like these cupcakes better than other places I've been addicted to for years...

Nice establishment, very kind customer service representative helped us. The product wasnt exactly what I'd had a ta st e for. I want thrilled by the taste of any of the 6 cupcakes I picked up. If I had to say, the red velvet was the best of the bunch I left with. Not saying I didnt enjoy the experience, it just may not have been for me, definitely be the judge for yourself.

This is a satellite location for their main bakery in Town Center! Everything is baked fresh daily and delivered there, so if you're in Norfolk and are craving dessert, treat yo self!

I've always had a sweet spot for Just Cupcakes' red velvet. But honestly, I will eat anything that has their cream cheese buttercream. It's the perfect combination of light, fluffy, and not too sweet!

They post their flavors daily on their website, and if you follow their Instagram/Facebook, they will even have not-on-the menu flavors every now and then!! My favorite flavor to catch is their
