Sarah’s Cake Stop

I’ve never been to the actual bakery but i have had treats from the food truck more than once. The service is always good and the desserts are always scrumptious! Yesterday at food truck friday, I had the cookie dough brownie. It was fantastic! It was $ 4, a decent size, and had a layer of fudge brownie, a layer of eggless cookie dough, a layer of chocolate ganache, and cookie crumbles on top. It was great!

We have tried different items from the food truck, the cupcakes are good… the strawberry lemon cupcake… delish. The cheesecake bomb is pretty good too… but not consistent. I have had it perfect before, and totally overdone which just threw me off. Whhhhyyyyy… I love cheesecake… anywho. Don’t really think I will be visiting the truck anymore, the lady at the truck is über nice though :)

Awesome Business been on the streets of St. Louis since 2010.

I worked a lot of events last summer throughout the county where the food truck would show up. People would always come to my booth with treats from Sarah’s because they loved it so much.
I never actually tried the place until a few months ago for the first time when my friend wouldn’t stop talking about it. Then I went there recently to see what they had in store. I first went in there for the glitter bites because that was all I was familiar with, but I ended buying some other things from the menu. They were all delicious but so sugary!
I ate my first treat while in the shop and managed to befriend the employees working the register while I was there. They were so friendly and out going that I ended up being there for a little over an hour.
It gets expensive when you buy a lot, but when you buy just single pieces it’s not bad at all. I would suggest the glitter bites, they’re my favorite thing from the bakery. If you’re someone who can eat cookie dough alone try the cookie truffle. It’s literally chocolate chip cookie dough covered in chocolate on the outside. It’s delicious!
This is definitely one of my favorite dessert places in St. Louis!

I just love this place. It is so cute and delicious. I love the glitter bites they are flavorful and just a one bite little bit of heaven. I also am a huge fan of the snack cake cupcake an ode to the Hostess snack cake but 100 times better. A bit on the pricey end perhaps but not out of hand. Always have friendly staff. Will be back ASAP!

I would highly recommend the Snack Cake, which looks similar to a Hostess Cupcake with the chocolate on top and white swiggle down the middle — only better.

Just tried the everyday cake. It was okay. My sisters are a huge fan of the cake balls though. I wasnt that impressed though.

Picked up a pre-​made cake for a dinner party. Samoa cake = caramel cake, dark chocolate ganache filling, with a decadent buttercream frosting and caramel/​ganache drizzle. AMAZING! $ 21 served 8 guests perfectly. Will return to try their cupcakes!

Caught the truck at Creve Coeur Park.
Almond Joy. Coconut cake was moist and tasty. Chocolate topping with an almond was very cute.
S’mores brownie. Very rich. Hard. Not my fav but it was tasty.
Wedding cake. Very strong almond flavor. Extremely flavorful and tasty. Moist and move cake spongy texture. I really enjoyed this.
I still like the strawberry cupcakes the most, but it was good and I look forward to trying more flavors.

Had a cake made for my son’s 3^rd birthday and it looked great at the shop until we got home and really opened it up to find it had an overwhelming almond smell. I guess their traditional buttercream frosting has an «almond emulsion» so I was told. The cake was moist but I am very disappointed and was looking forward to a traditional vanilla buttercream frosting. Which I thought was standard birthday cake but instead of yummy leftover cake we have an entire half sitting in the fridge. I called and asked about it and they were kinda rude, I know they get busy but customer service should always be a priority.

We have ordered from Sarah’s several times in the past for parties and had great experiences. Most recently we ordered 24 cupcakes for a children’s bday party only to find out after I paid and served to guests that they were made with almond icing. Really disappointing considering we had guests with nut allergies. In the past we had always been given a vanilla buttercream frosting so I assumed this would be the case. Unfortunately, when I called to find out what happened I was told almond is the standard and they *usually* ask if there are any allergies to be aware of. It never crossed my mind that they would use anything with nuts without a specific request especially considering I told the sales person buttercream frosting. I was also disappointed because I felt the response I received when I called was less than apologetic.
I wasn’t expecting anything for free or discounted. Just a sincere apology would have been fine.

I order all my cakes from here for all of our special occasions. The icing has a great flavor that is not too sweet. I have always been very pleased with everything I have ever ordered.
Cupcakes and other sweet treats are delicious and hard to resist when you are picking up something. The staff is always very friendly and helpful.

Good cupcakes. Decent price. Awkward store location.
I ran inside the store one afternoon to grab cupcakes for my technicians birthday. It felt awkward inside. They were a little stand offish and weren’t excited to help me … And I was the only customer in the tiny room. I couldn’t tell if that was all the cupcakes the had in the displays or if more were elsewhere. Turns out more are elsewhere. They weren’t particularly helpful and seemed almost annoyed I was buying cupcakes. I think they were too preoccupied with a bride or someone who they couldn’t get a hold of that owed them money on a cake or something… Weird.
I would go back because they were good and cheap, but I might just stick to finding them when they’re out in their truck. They seem friendlier then. (I’ve gotten cupcakes twice from the Cake Stop truck).

Tried their cupcakes and brownies at Food Truck Friday, and WOW! The cupcakes aren’t overly sugary and are evenly balanced between cake and icing. I tried the snack cake and the salted caramel ones. I couldn’t tell you which I enjoyed more because they were both tasty. However, the reese’s pb cup brownie blew me away! I stopped short of eating the whole thing in one sitting and making myself sick but it was SO good. Will return just for that brownie. :)

My last experience here was so amazing that my brain blocked it out because it couldn’t handle how awesome it was all at once. It has slowly been releasing this information to me since Food Truck Friday as I become strong enough to handle the shock waves of awesomeness these cupcakes send through my system.
If you know me at all, you know I hate cupcakes. It’s the paper. They are messy. I just don’t get them.
But clearly none of that will stand between me and one of these things.
I remember being slightly disappointed when I saw the list of flavors available at the last FTF. None of them seemed crazy enough. Food trends are starting to kill my food buzz, man.
But whatever the Hell I got was amazing. Seriously. I think it was called a snack cake. It looked like one of those Little Debbie cakes you can buy for like a quarter. I was like damn, I could get a whole box of ding dongs for the price of one of these things. Little did I know that a Sarah’s Cake Stop snack cake is to a Little Debbie what Josh Groban is to Ke$ha.
The worst decision I ever made was only getting one. If you ever get a chance to hit this truck, ask how many they have left of the cupcake you want, and get all of them. That’s the best advice I can give you.

Love love Sarah’s Cake Truck. To think they drive all the way downtown from Chesterfield just to give us city people our cupcake fix.
Came downtown yesterday to pick up some food truck food. Sarah’s was around and I decided on being bold and getting some cupcakes out of my comfort zone. I decided on the key lime cupcake and a root beer cupcake for my boyfriend. Both were delightfully scrumptious! I love that they have different flavors every day.
They hit up different locations around STL all week. They hit downtown every Tuesday, so if you’re in the area, come try their stuff. Follow them on twitter too where they post their weekly schedule.

Holy. Crap.
French Toast cupcake with candied bacon on top?! YES PLEASE.
Seriously *super* awesome concept and perfect execution.
When I saw this truck parked outside of the SLU library the other day I jumped with joy! I didn’t really care for the Sweet Divine too much (but in fairness most of their cupcakes were sold out when I got there) so I was pumped for Sarah’s.
The lady working in the truck was very nice and helpful even though I had suuuuch a hard time deciding which cupcake I wanted. I only got two things – the French Toast cupcake and the Cheesecake dome… thingy…with chocolate on top. I mostly purchased the cheesecake thing for Sean since he likes cheesecake, but he ended up not even eating this because there was no graham cracker crust on the bottom and that’s what «makes cheesecake» according to him, lol. He also didn’t like the chocolate on top even though I tried to scrape it off for him. Oh well. Can’t please everyone!
But yeah, I had a hard time deciding… next time I will be trying the tiramisu for SURE though because damn, it sounded good. If it’s anything like the F.T. cupcake, I will be in heaven.
Goodbye diet, hello Sarah’s.
PLEASE COME BACK TO SLU PLEEEEASE! :D

The thing that I love about these cupcakes is that they aren’t overwhelmingly sweet. Some cupcakes are so just sweet, either in their frosting or the cupcake itself, that you can’t take more than a couple bites without being overwhelmed.
Sarah’s Cake Stop strikes the right balance here with their selection of cupcakes. I got recommended the butter cream frosting as a less sweeter choice, so while I’m sure my heart is feeling the consequences of not buying one, but TWO cupcakes last Thursday afternoon (I have some issues with variety and indecision), at least my taste buds were in an agreeable mood.
I’m not sure if I was just a little out-​of-​it that day or not but I felt like I had some trouble distinguishing between the two cupcakes I ordered (they were chocolate and strawberry). Or maybe I just got so caught up in the butter cream frosting that I just ignored everything else. I did end up sharing both my cupcakes with my friends and one of them mentioned that he thought the strawberry cupcake could have been a little more strawberry.
But. I am tempted to come back again and try their different flavors and varieties.

I have already updated my current crush to reflect my new adoration, but feel quite liberated. Normally if I am interested in someone, I might try to make him aware of my interest, but never would I announce my crush on any internet site. However, in this instance, I’m all in. It’s out there for everyone to know. I am. In love. Unfortunately, it is with a cupcake and not a nice man, but my cupcake will always treat me well.
On my way into Fenton, I noticed that Sarah’s Truck was stopped at the Scholastic warehouse. I got the address and convinced my GPS to take me there. Mayhem may or may not have invaded because I kept getting turned around, lost and yelled at. Finally, I spotted the big yellow truck, and though I was now running late for my appointment, texted our own Allison B with the flavor choices and ordered a few to take back to my side of the river. $ 3 is on the expensive side for an individual cupcake, but I will definitely be chasing this truck down again.
Vanilla Crème Brulee cupcake was beyond delicious. I remember the first time I tasted Crème Brulee. I was a fun loving college co-​ed, who was in Palm Springs for a fraternity convention. Before you get excited, it was a professional co-​ed fraternity, and for the most part, attendees weren’t looking for a big party. Me, though? I had a blast drinking-​and-​sunning… sunning-​and-​drinking… and flirting with all the hot guys I ran into contact with. The last night of the convention, there was a formal event. Dinner, drinks & dancing made for a fantastic night. My fake ID came in really handy. But back to the point. We were served crème brûlée for dessert, and I can still picture that amazing goody. This cupcake brought me back to that fun time in my life, but despite how much I loved that brulee, this cupcake was BETTER. The cake was the perfect consistency. It was moist, yet substantial. The buttercream was thick, rich and buttery. The crunchy bruleed sugar on top offered a little crunch, and meshed perfectly with aspects of the cupcake. I hadn’t realized that there was a filling to the thing, but oh, googley moogley, it added so much. This is a cupcake that truly offered a flavor profile that it was meant to. It was perfect. Delicious.
The Snack Cake was great too. It doesn’t get a whole lot better than a deliciously rich chocolate cake, filled with decorators frosting with such a high sugar content, it was a little crunchy and topped with vanilla butter cream and chocolate ganache. Oh, and an adorable little squiggle of decorators frosting on top as well. The vanilla buttercream was not as pleasing as the buttercream on the Crème Brulee cupcake, but was still enough to make it a great cupcake.
The Salted Caramel is one of the best sellers, and was very good, but the only thing I would change is to add a little salt on top. The caramel was delicious, and the entire top of the caramel cake was brushed in caramel, as was the caramel buttercream, but it lacked in the salt flavor in my opinion, and would have been made better with a slight punch of salty to counteract the sweet. Allison B. seemed to really enjoy this cupcake, as did my mama.
I thought that SweetArt was my favorite cupcake establishment in St Louis, but my mind has changed! Sarah’s Cupcake Truck is my new deity. Looking at their website, I am struck by two things. First of all, the Crème Brulee cupcake is not listed, and I am concerned that it is a one-​off. It better not be, Sarah’s! Secondly, there are so many other flavors I would love to try… Chocolate Cookie, Chocolate Caramel Pretzel, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Almond Jo, Strawberry Cheesecake, and Chocolate Caramel. Oooooh, the Sweet N Salty looks amazing, too. As you can most likely deduce, I like me some chocolate… and speaking as if I have little understanding of the English language from time-​to-​time.
Hugely Happy Cupcaking

Heading downtown to find Cha Cha on my quest to try all the STL food trucks before I have to go back to work in August, I was super excited to see Sarah’s Cake Stop parked next door. Two for one, score!
I ordered a brownie, a red velvet cupcake, and a snack cake cupcake (chocolate with chocolate and vanilla frosting, a la Hostess cupcake). It wasn’t all for me!
The red velvet was for myself. It was super good — moist, and the frosting was THE BEST. The cake part could’ve had a little more flavor, but the frosting sold it for me.
The brownie, which I got to try, was moist with fudge frosting and sprinkles. I could have done without the sprinkles. They take away from the homemade flavor, in my opinion. It was yummy but I did try to avoid those.
Oh, and can I mention the name — five stars for that! Best name around!
