Tipsy Cupcake Alcohol Infused

I was so excited to try these cupcakes we bought 4 different flavors. Got home and tried them. Yes could taste the alcohol however the cupcake was so dry it wasn’t worth eating. Sad cause I had high hopes.

Had 2 different cupcakes. The Mojito and the Baileys. The Mojito was outstanding. Loved it. Rich, good taste and moist. The Baileys wasn’t as good. Dry cake and the mint flavor in the icing did not go with the taste of the cake. Next time I would like to try the non-​alcoholic ones!

We showed up an hour before close and they had a limited selection descent enough cup cakes but a little too much booze taste for me probably a better treat if you’ve already put a few back.

The gentleman at the counter was nice and pleasant. The cupcakes looked appetizing. I didn’t purchase the alcohol infused as I’m pregnant but was excited for the regular flavors. We bought 4 different cupcakes and they were pretty consistent. They all had light fluffy frosting. They were also dry with a weird texture. I just cannot quite explain the texture as I’ve never had that in a cupcake. It was almost spongy and dry at the same time. They were the worst cupcakes I’ve ever had. I’m really disappointed since I was planning to go back for the tipsy ones but I think I’ll have to pass.

For how expensive the cupcakes are, you would think they would be either really delicious or strong but they weren’t really either. They were a bit dry and I could barley taste the alcohol. The shop is small and only one person was working so the line took a while and the whole situation was not ideal.
I wouldn’t suggest this place.

This place is definitely guilty pleasure. It is so adorably decorated and who can honestly resist cupcakes let along alcoholic cupcakes?! They are always alternating their flavors and liquor combos. The store is conveniently located in the Stapleton shopping plaza so I always end up coming here whether it be before the movies or for dessert after dinner or just for the cupcakes themselves!
My two most recent cupcakes were the oreo with kahlua and mint with bailey. Both were delicious! I usually don’t really like frosting on cupcakes but this one isn’t too sweet and I can actually eat all of it. The alcohol is located in the center of the cupcake so make sure you take even bites or else you will reach the center and have a bitter surprise. If you check into Unilocal,there’s a BOGO deal! I didn’t realize this until after I already paid but I will definitely come back and use it =P

Great cupcake concepts and interesting combinations! I wish the alcohols essence were more incorporated within the cupcake instead of just the middle though.
Tried the kahlua Oreo and the choco mint baileys! Mmmm!

Cupcakes are life. They’re my one true love, so obviously I was disappointed in myself for still not having tried alcohol infused cupcakes (if cupcakes are my love, booze are definitely my side chick). Today I decided to stop living in the 18^th century and get one of these concoctions in my mouth hole.
Tipsy is small, but in this case size doesn’t matter. You won’t be able to sit down and enjoy your cupcake, but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. I stared at the tasty treats in the display until I was distracted by the man behind the counter (I think he was the owner) who was chatting it up with a customer in front of us. He was really kind, knowledgeable, and overall, provided a really great customer service experience.
There are both regular and alcohol infused cupcakes, and all of them look really pretty. We decided to go with the Raspberry Martini, Oreo Kahlua, and Southern Peach. I knew I would love the Oreo Kahlua because I’m obsessed with chocolate, but I was worried about the other 2 because I’ve found that vanilla cake frosting is often too sweet. I was pleasantly surprised when all of the cupcakes tasted super amazing. The Oreo Kahlua was my favorite and had the biggest kick of alcohol, which worked nicely with the chocolate. RM & SP had hints of alcohol which balanced nicely with the sweetness.
The consistency and texture of all the frostings was spot-​on and the actual cake was really great, too. Not too spongy, not too hard, not too mushy… juuuuust right.
Their menu rotates so each day has different flavors, which is nice. Looking forward to heading back and trying the rest of their goodies.

A great concept and tasty cupcakes. I used a Living Social deal for 2 dozen mini cupcakes and they were a hit! I could definitely taste the alcohol in them. The Tequila & Lime was my favorite. I will be back for sure. Just wish, they had more than one shop. I live south so it was a bit of a drive.

We ordered 4 jar cupcakes through Groupon. They were delicious. It was a shame that we couldn’t get 4 different flavors but we got 2 x Pina Colada & 2 x Chocolate Whisky. They were delicious. We even packed 2 into a cooler bag and took them on a road trip, ate them 2 days later and they were still just as good as they day we picked them up.
We paid $ 17 for the 4 rather than $ 32 (normal price) I don’t think I would pay $ 8 each for them but at $ 4.25 they were great.

ONE HIT WONDER! I’m sooooo disappointed w this place …1) the girl accepted my
coupons at the store and then a day before my event someone called me to tell me only one coupon at at time can be redeemed… why was my coupons accepted in the first place!!! She made a mistake and I have to pay for it… ridiculous. 2) cupcakes are not all that! Mine tasted blah and dry… needless to say I’m never going there again. If I could rate them a negative 5 I would… buyer beware!

I love their cupcakes, red velvet especially! Gave the whiskey flavored one as a gift, they loved it as well. Tastes just like an alcohol infused cupcake what else do you expect?! People who work their are also always friendly.

My husband and I stopped in here last night to bring home cupcakes for dessert. It smelled so strongly of cleaner/​disinfectant that we almost walked out, but we were determined to get cupcakes so suffered through it. We were also not greeted when we walked in and it was all together an uncomfortable cupcake buying experience.
There were only 3 cupcakes on display: a tequila sunrise, chocolate with vanilla frosting, and vanilla with chocolate frosting. We got each of them.
The cake was spongy, which we didn’t mind, but almost tasted salty and not sweet at all. The frosting was too sweet, but had a nice consistency. We thought the tequila in the cupcake was a fun twist, but combined with the too-​sweet frosting it wasn’t great.

After reading a ton of horrible reviews I decided to give this a try against my better judgement. All 4 cupcakes were like biting into a REAL sponge. Horrifying. So dry and gross I cannot believe that the owner doesn’t read their own Unilocal page and fix their recipes already. Get a clue!

I’ve been here on 2 occasions & have tried 4 cupcakes altogether now. I’ve tried the screwdriver, the vanilla, a margarita (I think?) one & a chocolate one. The cupcakes are a large size and you get one free if you check-​in on Unilocal.I however did not realize that until after purchasing mine.
The shop’s tiny so there’s no place to sit inside. You also cannot bring the cupcakes into the theatre FYI. They sell regular cupcakes as well as alcohol infused ones. The alcohol infused ones have alcohol mostly in a cream in the middle. It isn’t found throughout the batter nor the frosting. So you’ll bite in the center and then get a huge hit of the alcohol. As a lightweight, I could definitely feel the alcohol from eating this cupcake.
I’m a huge cupcake baker so I find myself to be more critical of cupcakes than the average person. These were a little dry and the cake portion wasn’t very fine. The frosting isn’t as heavy as buttercream but it isn’t the lightest either. It’s lighter than a buttercream but is not quite as light as a chantilley. There’s also too much cream on top for my liking but perhaps if it was slightly lighter I wouldn’t mind that portion size.
Between cupcakes from the grocery store and these, I think I prefer the grocery store ones more because they are more moist. However, these cupcakes have a less sweet batter which is one pro.

I have no idea if their cupcakes are any good, but the service is NOT. I ordered 2 dz mini alcohol infused for my husbands birthday. I ordered directly off their website, a week in advance, using their drop down flavor menu. The website makes you list your email and phone number, and yet nobody bothered to contact me about the flavor, on their menu, not being available. I ordered Crown Royal Black Tie flavor, and when I showed up to pick them up they substituted White Chardonnay flavor. In what universe are those even comparable? I waited 20 minutes for the new girl to call he manager, only to have it explained that they did have the Crown Royal flavor, but her being new, she didn’t know. They said I would have a credit… for his next birthday, I guess? No thanks.

We stopped by here after shopping & eating and wanted to bring some back to the hotel. We would have wanted the cake part a little fresher but it was near closing so we expected the cake part to be dry. I think the frostings are to die for. With a quality sturdy frostings, the cake part needs to be sturdy enough to hold together and not crumble in pieces like a very moist one. We ordered the pretty pink princess, salted caramel (a little too rich), classic vanilla, and double
chocolate. They were all yummy!

Cupcakes and service that I dont mind paying for! I had them do a special order of Fireball cupcakes for a friends going away party and they were a hit!
You say cupcakes to me and I will respond with «Tipsy» every time! I

Ooohh Tipsy Cupcake…
I did not get the chance to taste any cupcakes from this establishment when Unilocal have a MAJOR Event sometime last year. Since this establishment is CLOSER to our house, to this establishment we went…
For one, maybe its an isolated incident coz perhaps its the LATER part of the day, when they were about to CLOSE, so the options are rather limited. Furthermore, Hubs wanted some Desserts and we just opt to have Half a Dozen which was ($ 18.00). When we got back home, we try and eat the cupcakes. The Cupcakes indeed FALL SHORT with ANY deep flavors as we were hoping for. Its SO MUCH SUGAR in the Frosting and ALL Tasted SO ARTIFICIAL… Its SO Bland, and the Cake part of the Cupcake is SO DRY.
*SAD FACE INDEED*
From what I could recall we ordered the following Cupcakes from this establishment :
* Double Chocolate
* Cookies & Cream
* Dirt & Worm
* Rainbow Surprises
* Grasshopper
* Classic Red Velvet
We cannot purchase the Alcohol Infused Flavors since we DO NOT DRINK and we are NOT INTO THOSE. Perhaps these are the Highlights of the Business venture hence the glowing reviews that they received. Oh well.
Ooh well, maybe if we were to go EARLY in the Morning or when they open their stores, maybe the Cupcakes are freshly baked perhaps IT MAY taste better? But with these 6 cupcakes we purchased from this establishment, to return ER NOT IN A HURRY unless the Cupcakes can blow out our taste buds to the Max! *Disappointed Face* & * MAJOR SIGH INDEED*
This recent visit was on Tuesday August 26^th 2014. Time was about 19:27hrs. If I am NOT mistaken the person behind the counter, who attended our transaction, her name is Kay.

Booze + Cupcakes = sweet fun for everyone! For our big Flirty Thirty celebration, my friend used a Groupon she bought recently for 24 mini cupcakes. She got 6 each of Tipsy’s most popular flavors:
-«Red Carpet» Grey Goose: Red Velvet Pomegrante cake with Whipped Grey Goose Cream Cheese Icing
–Crown Royal «Black Tie»: Infused with Crown Royal White Chocolate Buttercream Icing
-«White Russian» Khalua: Chocolate Khalua Cake with white chocoalte chunks topped with a Whipped Khalua Buttercream Icing
–Barcardi «Raspberry Twist» White Cake with raspberry-​lime topped with a Whipped Raspberry-​lime Barcardi Buttercream Icing
The tiny cakes all have the frosting injected down into the cake, and all the flavors were delicious. I thought the Bacardi Raspberry one was a tad too sweet though.
The bakery is in a plain building, with only a tiny sign for Tipsy Cupcakes in the window right now. It seems to be by appointment only, and you arrange the pickup time with them. Don’t forget your ID– these treats aren’t for kids!
