Simply Cakes by Jae

She serves great cakes. This business has produced wonderful full sized cakes for years. My wife wanted something special: she baked it. The cupcake venture is relatively recent. I don’t know if this is to market to people unwilling to buy a full sized cake or to induce people to try her wonderful baking. Either way, check it out. You can’t do better around here.

Found this wonderful little cupcake treasure while traveling through town. The owner was so warm and friendly, we enjoyed visiting with her while there. And the cupcakes were amazing. We couldn’t just order one… had one there and left with more for the road! Had the German chocolate, vanilla lemon, chocolate mousse, and chocolate peanut butter. Loved every one of them! If I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be the chocolate peanut butter. The cupcake was moist and the frosting was light and delicious, but the peanut butter filling really made the cupcake sing! Next time we’re in town, this place will be on our itinerary for sure. Thank you, Jae!

Stopped into «Simply Cakes by Jae» on the advice of a friend who was hosting me over the weekend in Gearhart. Quite of few cupcakes were gone when I got there… seems you need to arrive early to get the favorites, but there were still plenty of tempting ones from which to choose. Six scrumptious cupcakes later, well, make that five, since I had to stay and devour one before leaving… I was on my way back to Gearhart with my precious cargo. Moist, creamy… ooey-​gooey and fabulous! They aren’t heavy on the tummy, but light and dense at the same time and just, well… succulent! The coconut cream, either in the white or the chocolate are toooo diiieeeee foooorrrrrrr!
Final word: I could eat these cupcakes all… day… long.

German Chocolate Cupcake= the most amazingly moist, delicious, rich cupcake I’ve ever had. Husband had the Lemon Curd cupcake and isn’t really a sweets person; he couldn’t stop raving about how good it was. So glad we stopped in here. Only wish we had more days in Astoria to try more flavors! The owner is as sweet as her creations.

We have commissioned a cake by Jae for our wedding next Saturday, March 17^th. We got to taste a cupcake of the flavors that we chose, and it was DIVINE! I love cake, and have never tasted cake so good!
We can’t wait to have it at the wedding next week! We keep joking that we just want to get the ceremony over with so we can dig into the cake! :P
Go to Jae! She won’t disappoint you!

What can I say… I fell in love and felt I was in another world. This places makes me want to speak in an English accent, have a cup of tea, and some cucumber sandwiches. So utterly cute I feel like putting on a pink cotton dress and some pretty umbrella to match.
The owner and baker is as delightful as the cupcakes. European butter frosting was heavenly. The cupcake was moist, not too sweet, melted in your mouth, and tasted like heaven on earth.
For those adverse to the color pink, beware, but it’s ok, you’ll enjoy the freshly baked cupcake so much, you won’t even notice.

Awww… the owner is wonderful! I wanted to sit and chat with her but there were adventures to be had. She was super friendly and gave us a quick tutorial about her sugary creations. Got the coconut crème and chocolate coconut cream. Each were filled with this delicious custard-​not too sweet and overbearing, just perfect! I adored that the icing wasn’t too sugary, just a light whipped cream. Yum! Everything is homemade… and its tastes like it! No fake bakes here!

Came here to test drive a few cupcakes, based on the Unilocal review. Am very glad I did. It was late in the day so selection was a mite limited but the chocolate raspberry and vanilla raspberry were just what a cupcake should be. Light with tender crumb and clean flavors. Will visit again.

We love this place! Everything is made fresh and from scratch… the cupcakes are amazing and we end up buying an extra four or so to take back to Portland with us. So much better than Cupcake Jones or Saint Cupcakes.
Her cakes are amazing and each one is a custom masterpiece. Love seeing Jae’s creations, she’s a delight.
