About

Kristin Kay spent years piping frosting inside a corporate cupcake franchise before deciding to bake on her own terms. Going independent in 2019 gave her room to source her own ingredients, adjust the menu on customer feedback, and build the flavor list as a team effort, where nearly everyone on staff has a house cupcake they call their own. The lineup leans adventurous. Traditional standbys like Signature Vanilla and Strawberry Crush share the case with quirkier creations such as Banana Pudding Pie and seasonal picks like Pumpkin Maple Praline. Cupcakes are the headline, but the menu reaches further into cookie sandwiches, parfaits, cutting cakes, and custom orders for weddings and celebrations. What sets it apart is who it feeds. Vegan and gluten-free options are baked daily, with keto and sugar-free handled on request, and the gluten-free cupcakes get their own display case rather than a leftover shelf. Kay also points her ovens at the community, baking for Upstate fundraisers well beyond the shop. Regulars give it real credit for cupcakes that stay moist, for a small, art-filled space that feels more boutique than bakery, and for wedding work priced without the usual markup. The menu keeps shifting, so finding the one that becomes your regular is something you sort out a few visits in.
