Pixy Cakes

My wife and I have been in here a couple of times over the past couple of years. Today the customer service was good. Other times it has been debatable. The place is always clean and today there were customers in there which is something we have never really seen.
Now the cupcakes. The frostings have always been good. But the prices are high compared to a place like Sweet Daddy’s. $ 3 for a regular sized cupcake. You can get a much larger, tastier cake from Sweet Daddy’s for the same price. The cakes themselves are a little dry and have been every time we have been here. Not sure if they are homemade batters or from a box.
The only reason we went in today was because we had a coupon for 50%. Off with a $ 6 cap on it. Would we return? Maybe if we had a good coupon.

Stopped by this cute little cupcake shop yesterday. When we walked in it smelled delicious and the store is well decorated and clean! We were greeted when we walked in and when the employee became busy with a phone call, the owner promptly came out and filled our order.
We ordered a Whoopi pie and split it between the two of us. It was moist white cake with white buttercream frosting, delicious! My husband had the salted Carmel cupcake, which he said had good flavor, a little dry and $ 3.00 was to much for a regular size cupcake. I had the chocolate, chocolate cupcake which was moist and delicious. I would definitely return to try other flavors!
Yay for Pixy Cakes!

Horrible customer service
I took my two children in today for an after lunch treat and the cashier was beyond rude. Her tone and mannerisms suggested we were bothering her. I told her we need a minute because this was our first time. She responded with «well I need to know what size box to use!» I would have bought a dozen, but her tone was harsh. We ended up getting 3 cupcakes which worked out better for us anyways. The cupcakes had a stale burnt taste and the Pink Champagne cupcake had no flavor at all. If the young lady would have been more welcoming and kind I would have returned, because I understand baking can be a tricky little monster, some batches are ok and some are better.

Pixy Cakes made the wedding cake for our wedding at Secret Garden. They helped us make the decisions on the design when we weren’t sure what to go with and they were flexible when we wanted to make changes. The wedding cake looked absolutely stunning at the reception. We couldn’t ask for a more beautiful cake. The cake also tasted great too!

I was so busy with everything that I didn’t even realize I was calling and ordering in Avondale. I live in Chandler. Bout a half hour away. No biggie but they better be good. I sent them a pick from Pinterest of what I wanted. Every single person at the party boasted about those cupcakes. Finally when I got to taste one I was thrilled. Moist, fresh, perfect amount of frosting! I will def take the ride again!

I had a really great experience with this bakery. I am not a huge cake fan so for my wedding I did a large order of cake pops. Great customer service, fair prices and the cake pops were amazing!!! I had cookies and cream, pink champaign, vanilla, and chocolate all my guest loved them! I will be going back again very soon!

Love this place — for cakes and cupcakes they are my go to place. A little pricey but in my mind worth every penny. My favorite flavored are peanut butter and tiramisu. For cake I usually go with Lemmon and raspberry. Their cupcakes are not too sweet and kids love the cookies and cream that look like little Mickey Mouse. Their staff is friendly and always helpful– every time I brought a picture or idea of what I want the cake to look like they did EXACTLY what I wanted. Would highly recommend them

Pixy Cakes was part of my wedding package and I am so happy they were. I am dairy free and they played around with recipes to make sure I had plenty of flavor options to taste. They also even made a dairy free cream filling in all different flavors for me as well. In the end I picked a coconut cake with a strawberry cream filling. It was dairy free and sooo delicious! I also really wanted lilies on my cake, but they are toxic so they made me sugar lilies in my wedding colors. My only complaint is they are not in Ahwatukee near my house!

Pixy Cakes provided little «cakes in a jar» for my wedding last month and boy, were they a HIT! I have had numerous guests come up to me well after the wedding telling me how much they admired our jarred cakes and how DELICIOUS they were. Unfortunately, my groom smashed our cake in my face and I had to spend some time in the restroom cleaning it out of my nose, so I didn’t get to enjoy any cake! I sure did miss out since no one can stop talking about how delicious they were. Way to go Pixy cakes! The ONLY thing that kept me from giving them 5 stars was just about 3 weeks before my wedding they emailed me asking where the burlap/​lace/​raffia was to decorate our jars. I wasn’t aware that we had to provide this, so I had to quickly order from Amazon and have it shipped directly to the bakery in order to make it in time for the wedding.

Wow!!! What a change! No details, just wow!
In a competitive market, people need to remember that the reason you succeed is because of your customers.

So much for good service
Visited Pixy Cakes today to order a cake for our daughter, who will turn two years old. After inquiring about options, a rude, older goth-​ish girl said they would not take our order and kept cutting my wife off whenever she tried to ask a question.
It took about four of these exchanges until my wife was thoroughly offended and we were done. Off we went to Unilocal!another, nicer place that will make our baby girl something nice.
Not sure what happened. Such an extreme reversal of a service experience is hard to understand, especially for a small business trying to do well. Only know that we will not be back.

So I went to my best friends bridal shower and these cupcakes were there. Oh. My. Gosh. No words can express how good these are. The frosting is just so legit. Like it doesn’t taste fake at all. I love the way it tastes. I can’t wait to actually go in and try more. Just sucks there’s only one and it’s not near me hahah. Definitely recommend.

My friends surprised me with a cake/​cupcake tasting for my baby shower that was held July 2014. I was able to create the EXACT cake/​cupcake tower that I wanted. I am SUUUPPPEERRR picky, and they never got annoyed or frustrated with my request (even though my friends did lol). We used the cupcake tower that they have for rent, its not cheap looking, like the ones in the store. My cake/​cupcake were 4 different flavors, 4 different fillings, and 3 different frosting’s. They were able to change the color of all the cupcakes to match my blue prince theme! I will always go to Pixy Cakes for my events! His 1^st birthday is coming up and I’m already trying to think of a theme to give Pixy Cakes! Literally THE BEST… and I’m not a dessert person AT ALL.

My mother and I bought a Groupon for 24 cupcakes here a little while back. When we went in the lady was very nice. She asked if there was anything she can help me with, I told her I had a Groupon for 2 dozen cupcakes. I was told to pick 24 cupcakes that I would like… I picked my cupcakes and I was on my way. The baker is very nice and welcoming. The cupcakes are sooo amazing. I would definitely be coming here again to get a cupcake or 24. The best cupcake out of all 24 of them was the Cookie Monster… not only is it cute as can be but it was delicious.

Total rip off. $ 200 for a cake that feeds 4 mice. Drove 45 minutes from scottsdale to be quoted 3 times the amount quoted by phone the day before.

Everyone loved our cake. It was exactly what I asked for, mostly based on pinterest photos, but she got it. The cake was delicious and delivered exactly on time. I’ll definitely be going there again for my cake and cupcake needs.

I have tried a lot of cupcakes throughout the valley– You could say I have high cupcake standards. :) I really loved Pixy cakes Cupcakes. The Harry potter one was really unique and tasty–
I love thick heavy frosting. Pixy’s is NOT and I still really loved it. Good flavor.

I took a picture of what I wanted in the store. The girls were very friendly and helpful, with choosing flavors of the cake and fillings. This cake was for my daughters 16^th birthday and I wanted it perfect.
I picked it up and it was exactly what I asked for… PERFECT!!!
The flavors for the filling (that was suggested by staff– because honestly I couldn’t choose– I wanted it all) worked great with the flavor of the cake.
I was happy that I had more than just chocolate, strawberry or white to choose from.
We chose red velvet, marble, and cookies-​n-​cream. This was a 3 tier cake.
Everybody at the party loved the cake! What wasn’t eaten at the party was breakfast (you know teenagers)
Thank you Pixy Cakes… I will be back!

The cupcakes are cute and they have some good ideas for flavors. However, I felt
Like the two cupcakes I ordered were from «yesterday’s» batch or the day before. The cupcake looked like something I could make at home with a fancy tip for my piping bag. The cupcake was very dry and didn’t have good flavor, almost as if it had been frozen and taken out to thaw and then frosted. The frosting was a little bland and didn’t have a pleasant texture. Over priced for the quality. Their cakes do look gorgeous, but the cupcakes fell short of my expectations.

The staff is very helpful. We opted to order cupcakes in a jar for my hubby’s birthday. Cupcakes in a jar = 2 cupcakes and around $ 6 each.
We got pink champagne, cookie monster, and custom made chocolate cheesecake flavors. YUM!
The store smells fantastic when you walk in. Need to go try more flavors!!!
