Surprise Surprise Bake Shop

The go-​to place for cupcakes and other sweet treats. Great for picking up sweets for a party treat, or just for yourself. truly amazing.

I have used Emily and Surprise Surprise Bake Shop 3 times since the first review, and every time have been completely satisfied with tough to please guests (including ourselves!). We always order extra cake pops so we have some leftovers for us after the event :)

i was disappointed when i saw my birthday cake. i drove an hour to pick it up and it was microscopic and didn’t even have my name on it. it’s my fault though because i chose to have a 5 inch cake and i ordered it so lake. i was annoyed that it didn’t even have my name on it and it wasn’t designed as great as i hoped for. but after i tried my cake. i was blown away. i can honestly say it was the best cake i’ve ever had in my life. it was so damn good. i’ve never tried a birthday cake in my life better than mine. hopefully, this place can compete with the others and do intricate, cool designs because, if so, i will definitely come back next year.

I used Surprise Surprise bake shop for my husband’s James Bond themed surprise party a month ago and I was THRILLED with the service, pops and Emily herself! She is such a sweetheart but even more importantly an amazingly gifted baker! WOW. She told me the pops would be delicious, and she wasn’t lying. Moist, fluffy, delicious and decadent — these pops FLEW off the table — and there were actresses in attendance — so you know they must have been irresistible! Ha. Anyway, it was a bit pricey in terms of maybe other places I could have gone to, but worth every penny. If you have a special occasion and don’t want to have to worry this is your place! Oh and Emily customize the cake pops so amazingly — tuxedos and 007s! SO COOL. Thanks Emily. You rock.

Wow! This place is amazing! My son wanted Minecraft cake pops for his 8^th Birthday. Surprise Surprise did such an incredible job! My son and his classmates loved the red velvet and chocolate cake pops so much that the 3^rd grade class kept telling me how good they were. I eat a lot of high ends desserts from bakeries around the world and I can’t say enough about Surprise Surprise!

HOLY MOLY! These cake pops are the amazing!!! I picked up a box yesterday for my husbands birthday… ummmm, INCREDIBLE! He was thrilled and they truly tasted great. Emily is so nice and had them ready for me the same day I called. It was perfect. I highly recommend Surprise Surprise Bake Shop! Get them immediately! I will be ordering many more in the near future :)

WOW!
Very pleased from start to finish! Emily was so helpful and instrumental with getting my mental picture out of my head. I had a silly Idea that she took seriously and within 5 or so minutes we came up with a cake pop display design together. But I was still apprehensive about the final product. I’m a professional man and I didn’t want this display to come of too girly.
She hit the mark perfectly. WOW red velvet heaven!!! Thank you Emily!
Tip: though I’m sure she can knock out orders fast, she mentioned to me that the 2 weeks of lead time I gave her were very helpful.

We used Surprise Surprise Bake Shop for our wedding and have only good things to say about them! Emily was very sweet throughout the whole process. We met with her early on and decided to do cake pops for our dessert table at our wedding. She was so sweet and brought us samples of her cake pops (which were literally the BEST cake pops that I have EVER had in my life). This girl knows her cake pops better than anyone else. They were so moist and so flavorful and amazing! I had no favorites because they were all so good. I told her about my wedding theme and color scheme, and she really put a lot of thought and time into how my cake pops would look for the wedding. She made sure that the colors matched my theme and everything looked cohesive and the cake pops were decorated beautifully! She also had a cake pop tower and this presented her cake pops on our dessert table beautifully. Emily was such a great person to work with for our wedding. She really works hard, is so sweet, and really cares about her products and customers. I would highly recommend surprise surprise bake shop to everyone for any event that you have!

The Best of the Best! The cake pops were the stars if my baby shower yesterday. OMG, I never tasted any cake as delicious as these cake pops. I ordered the velvet cake and the vanilla birthday cake flavors. I was very specific about wanting the Tiffany blue color and they were more than perfect. The presentation was stunning and the service was 5 stars. I will be ordering for all my events since now I became a fan! Check out all the photos I added from my event!

I couldn’t have been happier with my cake pop experience with Emily from Surprise Surprise Bake Shop for my wedding! I got married in October 2014 and she gave my husband and I an amazing assortment of samples to choose from to create our order. We decided on the cookies and cream and the nutella fudge for our wedding and OH MY GOODNESS, they were divine.
She gave us a plethora of choices for designs, and to fit our fall-​themed wedding we chose milk chocolate and white chocolate icing with swirls of red/​orange/​yellow. We were able to rent a perfect cake pop tower from her that was very simple to set up, and the cake pops stood throughout the whole reception– no slipping down the stick like I’ve heard with some other cake pops! She even made us an adorable tuxedo and wedding dress cake pop for ourselves. The whole process was easy and painless, and much less expensive than a big huge wedding cake.
Our guests gobbled up the cake pops very quickly, and it was adorable to see the kids at the wedding hobbling around with their hands full of sticks of yummy goodness. We were so happy with our wedding order that we immediately replaced an order of the same flavors for our Thanksgiving dessert.
Thank you thank you Emily for making our wedding dessert amazing!

Emily’s cake pop’s are THE best tasting cake pops I’ve ever had. I was never crazy about cake pops until my bf’s parents bought him 3 dozen cake pops form here and I got to try so many different delicious flavors: red velvet, birthday cake, cookies & cream, snickerdoodle, & chocolate peanut butter. All delicious. BUT the absolute BEST thing was when I ordered a dozen cake pops for one of my clients who got into a motorcycle accident. Emily was so kind to go out & buy balloons to add to our order and deliver them to the hospital. He loved them and it was so awesome to know we could lift his spirits during such a difficult time. Emily & Surprise Surprise Bake Shop are the best and I will definitely be a returning customer.

I first discovered Emily’s cake pops at the Melrose Trading post and every week I would seek her out like a missile. When she wasn’t there anymore I panicked– how would I get my cake pops?! No one else’s were NEARLY as good! I have since tracked her down and have placed orders for many events and every time people rave. Whether serving them at the party or sending people off at the door with a treat for the ride home, they are always a huge hit. Plus, Emily is always a pleasure to deal with. Can’t recommend these enough!

Ordered cake pops for a coworker’s birthday. They were such a hit and so delicious (ordered cookies & cream and birthday cake). They are seriously the best cake pops and Emily is so sweet! Thank you so much again and look forward to work with you again soon!

I don’t usually care for cake pops because the ones I’ve had are too sweet or just not that good. I wanted something simple and cute for my birthday, so I tried these out. Not only were they AMAZING (red velvet and nutella), but Emily is so nice and helpful. I’d recommend Surprise Bake shop to everyone!!!

Emily made some cake pops for my husbands birthday recently. Not only did she deliver them to me on time but she went out of her way to get me special plates to serve them on. I love to bake but could never get my cake pops to look or even taste as fabulously as these did. Everyone is still talking about her cake pops and wanting more! Thanks Emily.

Oh my gosh. Emily created some cake pops for us for an open house event my employer was putting on. These little bites were SO DELICIOUS! A real hit at a party where not a lot of people tend to indulge in cake — people were ferreting them away toward the end and trying to take more than one for themselves.
The flavors we got were red velvet, chocolate, vanilla and they were all so delicious. Thank you, Emily! Hope to work with you again very soon :)

I found their booth at the Chinatown Nights event this past weekend and thought the lady was super sweet and friendly. Loved the presentation of the mason jar cupcakes so I bought two for my birthday in lieu of a cake. I bought a vanilla and a red velvet and found the red velvet one to be better.

Probably the best tasting cake pops I’ve ever had and I used to work at a bakery. The flavors are amazing and I love stopping by the Melrose Trading Post on Sundays to see which flavors are available. My favorite flavor is definitely Cookies n’ Cream and those cereal treat pops OMGeeeee!
Taste aside I love how beautifully each and every cake pop is decorated and individually wrapped like a delicious little present.

As an admitted dessert lover I’m always on the look out for something I can call «the best.» The best donut. The best slice of pie a la mode. The best piece of chocolate cake in the city. Without hesitation, I can say that Emily’s cake pops are the best.
Sweet but not too sweet, moist without falling apart, flavorful without being too strong. Truly little pieces of heaven, and almost disturbingly addictive.
Emily was the cake pop artist for one of my events, and besides being lovely, she was responsive, professional, and delivered a superb product. Needless to say, by the end of the evening the cake pops were gone, our client and her guests were happy, and I had secretly (and happily) put away a cake pop or two myself. Do yourself a favor and book Surprise Surprise the next time you have an occasion for the most amazing cake pop. You won’t be disappointed!

Finding myself in need of an edible, fun, and original gift basket for my talent agency served to be actually more difficult than I thought. My budget for the gift basket was; under $ 100 for 20 – 25 people. I looked at everything. Literally every company I could find online that make gift baskets. It wasn’t going to happen. There seemed to be no way that I could come within my budget and have the wow factor with quality that I wanted.
Until a few hours later I thought of the Surprise Surprise Bake Shop. I freaking love the Surprise Surprise Bake Shop cake pops at the Melrose Trading Post. I didn’t think of them at first because I thought that they would be way out of my budget. Emily was wonderful to talk to. She listened to what I wanted. She even let me send her pictures of the EXACT color I wanted the cake pops to be. I did give her artistic freedom telling her that the she could incorporate white, silver, or black. To cut on cost I offered to go get the foam to stick the cake pops in and the basket myself. She was so kind and exceeded my expectations by sending me a photo of the basket she wanted to use and the cost. I was over the moon! I had to have THAT basket! I was so chic! I know that I can be a little annoying to work with since I am an artist myself. Emily never made me feel like I was being an annoying customer.
Then I went to pick them up from her shop since I wanted to deliver the masterpiece to my agency myself. Oh my goodness!!! Not only did she come under my budget but she did everything I wanted! She even made a key for the cake pops flavors (I wanted a mix of flavors since I didn’t know everyones taste). By the way her handwriting is soooo cute! what a wonderful touch to have it handwritten! AND I had forgotten a card to include incase the office was in a meeting and I would be forced to leave at reception. But GUESS WHAT? Emily was a step ahead of me by including a blank card and envelope. Now that is just great customer service!!! I know because I was a store manager for 10 years and that was great customer service. Each cake pop was individually wrapped with a satin bow around each one. I have no idea how she is able to tie those small bows. The color was perfect! She did exactly what I wanted and more. She had my agency name written across some of the cake pops just the way I wanted!
When I took them into the agency everyone flocked to them!!! Ive never seen such excitement over food!!! They were taking pictures of them and tweeting, instagraming, and face booking the hell out of those cake pops!
I am very happy I went to Surprise Surprise Bake Shop and next time I book another role I’m going back to Surprise Surprise Bake Shop for more original, quality, handmade, yummy, fun, artistic cake pop gift baskets!!!
THANK YOU!!!
Side note: I really appreciate the classy look of the finished product. The brand name wasn’t plastered all over every nook and cranny. Sincerely a breath of fresh air. Because yes, Surprise Surprise Bake Shop made them but the entire point of my buying them was to personally thank my agency and wanted it to reflect me. Everyone was passing around her brochure that shows more about the shop. I think people like that classy handmade personal touch lately. I know I far prefer that over corporate cookie cutter stuff.
