My husband and I went to the Mass. Ave. location yesterday. We each ate a cupcake in the bakery-I got the Pucker Up, which is a lemon cupcake, filled with slightly tart lemon filling, and topped with a light lemon buttercream frosting and a lemon gumdrop. My biggest impression was that I could taste the REAL BUTTER in the lemon buttercream. It wasnt the generic frosting that you get at a chain supermarket in their bakery. My husband tried the Peanut Butter Blackout-a deep chocolate cupcake with peanut butter frosting. I took a bite of his, and the peanut butter frosting was incredible! We purchased a few to take home-the Twilight and Dreamsicle flavors were very good, but not as spectacular as the first two we tried. The Cookie Dough and Lemon Berry were wonderful, though! I am in love with their lemon frosting! I have heard rave reviews about their Red Velvet Elvis...but they were sold out when we arrived! Well try them next time!

My husband and I knew we wanted cupcakes for our wedding reception, rather than the traditional cake. I researched other cupcake companies in the area, but in the end going with The Flying Cupcake was a no brainer! Their cupcakes are so delicious, their prices are totally fair, and their customer service is wonderful! At your tasting, youll get to taste as many cupcakes as you want and get some to take home (yum). We got a small 4" cake to place atop our cupcake tier, and they decorated that without any extra charge. They were also super easy to work with for day-of pick up (you can pick-up from any of the bakeries). You wont be disappointed in going with them!

I tried two cupcakes from this location. A mint chocolate chip and the chocolate chip cookie dough. The mint chocolate chip cupcake was decent, but not the best Ive ever had. The icing was the best part. Melted in my mouth and paired well with the cake, which was a basic chocolate cake. As for the cookie dough, the cake was over baked and dried out. The icing didnt save it. In the case was a selection of other cupcakes. One tray was full of red velvet cupcakes. The edges of all of them were broken, burnt, or hanging out of the paper. Very sloppy. For being downtown Indianapolis, I was really let down.

Totally disappointed!! I got a simple red velvet cupcake and my partner got a "goat cheese" pumpkin cheesecake cup. The red velvet cupcake had didnt have a good texture to me- kind of like the texture of a box cake. The icing wasnt so good either. And together they formed a mushy texture. Not sure how to describe it. My boyfriends was supposed to be pumpkin and he said there was no taste of pumpkin whatsoever and we told it was "very bold in flavor." He said it was good though as a simple cheesecake. The 4.5 out of 5 stars tricked me. I wouldnt recommend and wont return. Bummer! I love cupcakes!

Didnt have the items that were on the website which I specifically went there for. But we bought 4 cupcakes and the buttercream frosting on the cupcakes were hard not soft and creamy. The taste was ok, no great. The sugar cookie crumbled and the taste was just so so. Really for the price, I expected more. I can get better tasting cupcakes and frosted sugar cookies at Walmart for much cheaper. Very disappointed in this bakery. Really wanted to like it but was let down.

I have celiac disease so when I find a place that does gf cupcakes I get pretty excited. The price was pretty steep for a fairly small cupcake. The texture was mealy and it just crumbled. Five to ten years ago I would have understood but gf baking has come quite a long way. If youre going to charge extra for a "premium" cupcake, I want to walk away feeling like it was worth my money. Not so much here.

Went in for the apple fritter and left a huge fan of the glazed doughnut! I personally like an apple fritter that has crispier edges. The ratio of apple chunks and cinnamon was perfect. The size was perfect. Four stars for apple fritter. The glazed was the five star surprise. Light, fluffy and not too sweet. A perfect doughnut for a cup of coffee!

We pay a good price for these cupcakes. Not sure if anyone else has noticed. But they are getting smaller and the price on some cupcakes are nearly $4. Hate when a small buiness starts to cheat their valued customers. Ive nevermind paying the higher price, but cheating is no longer acceptable for this customer

This place has amazing cupcakes. Ive tried quite a few of their offerings, and havent been let down yet. The prices are what you would expect for good, quality cupcakes. If you want cheap ones, go to Kroger. If you want good ones, get them here.

This establishment has my business forever. Kristin at the Mass. Ave store went completely above and beyond for us on race weekend. Thank you sweetie!! The cake was an amazing Golden Snitch from Harry Potter. Worth every penny!!!

Bought a variety of cupcakes for our daughters birthdays and had to go back 2 weeks later for a 2nd helping. Everything was great. The only thing I would change is the Red Velvet Cupcakes have 2-many chocolate chips in them.
