Where Is a Place to Get Cupcakes in Huntsville Alabama

Two delicious looking chocolate cupcakes. While you may have heard the tale that cupcakes are just for kids, we disagree entirely. These tasty little treats have come a long way from the muffin-tin creations mom made for your eighth birthday party. Cupcakes are still a delightful centerpiece on many dessert tables. From fancy frosting designs to bright, beautiful colors, you can even get these single-serving cakes injected with cream fillings. Let's review the three best places to get an adult-approved cupcake in Huntsville, Alabama.

1. Gigi's Cupcakes

The first Gigi's opened in Nashville, Tennessee in 2008. Today, it enjoys 100 locations nationwide, including the local venue at 2110 Whitesburg Dr. Put a smile on your face with Gigi's carefully placed signature icing swirl.

Sink your sweet tooth into three visually striking layers of icing. These fluffy mounds of frosting are more than gorgeous. They're decadent. Gigi's outstanding selection of flavor varieties offer something for everyone, and they're even big enough to share with a friend.

Why not sample a local favorite? The Strawberry Delight cupcake features a fragrant orange peel cake base lovingly baked with seasonal strawberries. The White Midnight Magic starts with a devil's food cake with melty chocolate chips baked right in, then topped with white chocolate buttercream frosting and a generous sprinkle of chocolate chips on top.

2. Sugar Belle

Huntsville's first cupcake truck recently opened a storefront at 515 Jordan Lane. Now with two convenient ways to satisfy your craving for sweets, Sugar Belle's is a real treat.

Cupcakes are always tops on the menu or try one of their mouthwatering brownies, cookies, and other desserts. Every week is a bit different at Sugar Belle's as the cupcake flavors change regularly. Stop by and see what's new, have a cup of coffee, hot chocolate or latte, and stay awhile.

Everything on the menu is delicious and affordable including the wildly popular Whiskey Vanilla Carmel cupcake with real caramel filling inside a whiskey-soaked vanilla cake, topped with a whiskey-infused caramel frosting. If that sounds a little too daring for you, try the refreshing key lime cupcake with cream icing.

3. Smallcakes

Are you a fan of the Food Network's show "Cupcake Wars?" Smallcakes owner Jeff Martin, who founded the Smallcakes bakery in Kansas City in 2008, earned an appearance on the show thanks to his delectable baked creations.

When you're craving something sweet and baked fresh daily, you owe it to yourself to check out the Jones Valley Smallcakes. Indulge yourself with a choice of 15 different flavors, all baked in small batches for the best quality, then topped with a perfect cake to icing ratio.

Order the Lemon Drop. It's a vanilla bean cake filled with a tart lemon filling or the Peanut Butter Cup. This tempting delight is a classic chocolate cupcake iced with cream cheese icing and real Reese's Peanut Butter Cups crumbled on top.
