Crave Cupcakes

An avid lover of Sprinkles, my husband and I decided to drop by and get cupcakes for our two-year anniversary. Because of Covid, only three customers are allowed in the bakery at once. My husband ordered the dark chocolate cupcake, and I ordered the GF chocolate on chocolate and a GF vanilla on chocolate. I ate the vanilla on chocolate last night and saved the other for our actual anniversary.

I was pretty surprised the employee asked if we wanted all the cupcakes in the same box or in separate containers (typically those who order GF have an allergy, so it’s basically a given those need to be separate). They do have GF protein bars (one flavor) and a lemon bar.

I did find the taste to be really good; however, our cupcakes were fairly crumbly. They are all topped with icing and fondant, and the fondant is really sweet (like REALLY sweet). I’m glad I tried this location and will keep Crave in mind in the future; however, Sprinkles will always be my go-to bakery.

007 was only GF cupcake. It was pretty awful... imitation sugar, low carb and just wasn’t the treat you would expect for a $4 cupcake

Lemon bars and Chocolate chip cookie is delicious. Only 1 GF cupcake option and it is chocolate. Limited options but delicious.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Red Velvet GF cupcakes! Yummmmmm

Very good!

I have to admit that I never really enjoyed Crave's cupcakes before going gluten-free. I know I'm probably the only person in Houston who feels that way. Their GF cupcakes, however, were GREAT! They have chocolate with either white or chocolate icing. Delicious and very moist.
