Queen City Cupcakes

My work got cupcakes for a staff birthday. My GF cupcake was in a different box than the gluten cupcakes, but I still got very ill from eating it. I don’t think this is a celiac safe establishment. It looked beautiful and even tasted great, but not worth how sick it made me.

I stopped in the other weekend to ask if they had any gluten free cupcakes and they were all out . I also asked about cross contamination and about my other allergies which are coconut and pineapple. They told me that they can’t guarantee things aren’t cross-contaminated. So unfortunately I will not be ordering cupcakes from them

They had chocolate and vanilla cupcakes in a container. Very moist. We were able to pick which cupcake and which icing we wanted. Bothe icings - chocolate or raspberries were outstanding! Creamy and tasty. Far and away the best raspberry frosting I have ever had anywhere! Yum! I dont’ feel like I had a reaction.

While not a dedicated bakery, they make the gluten free cupcakes first to minimize any cross contamination. Gluten free is either chocolate or vanilla cupcake with your choice of icing. GF cupcakes are kept in a sealed container to keep them safe. Staff is super friendly and I have never had a problem, even though I’m very sensitive.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They usually only have one type of gf cupcake available (typically chocolate). But it was really delicious and didn't taste dry! They kept my gf cupcakes separate from my other cupcakes with gluten in them. However, they did mention it was a shared kitchen so that's something to keep in mind.

This place had barely any cupcakes available and the ones they did have were kept in a plastic container and didn't look fresh. Then we ask about the frosting and if it is really gluten free. Then the man explains that the base of the cupcake is gf but the frosting is not guaranteed gf. And the same frosting and piping bags are the same ones used on the gluten cupcakes. Disappointing. And the worker seemed so surprised that if the frosting was used on the gluten cupcakes then if the same one was used on gf cupcake it's not actually gluten free.

YUM! They had unfrosted gluten free cupcakes so I custom ordered mine just like the regular Samoa with vegan frosting! Super tasty

they suggest you call ahead to check they have some made, they are friendly but many times I have called, they ran out. they didn't have many options available. delicious but I am hoping they get more.

I love QCC! they have a large variety of Gluten Full cupcakes that look delicious! Jelly :( but they do offer a GF chocolate cupcake to die for and its especially cool that they let you pick the. Frosting to go with it! And they have a loyalty card!!

Love, love, love! Hands down, the best in the state! Go early since their closing time varies once their inventory is sold.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Love Queen City cupcakes! My favorite is the GF chocolate cake with buttercream frosting! So good!

they have gf cupcakes in a separate area. Well protected from the regular cooking stuff. you can pick chocolate or vanilla and multiple flavors of vegan or dairy frosting. Quite yummy!!

The cupcake was so good. My first GF cupcake but I could not tell a difference. They have a few GF and vegan options available daily. Chocolate cake with coconut icing. Yum!
