After reading the reviews, I wanted to try them and they did not disappoint. I got there at 6pm on a Sunday and there were only 2 flavours left (Chocolate & Salted Caramel) which means i’ll have to come back to try the rest. Even though the cupcakes are not fluffy, they are delicious! $4/cupcake
I've been a regular for about a year now, and I've consistently enjoyed every cupcake I've tried! The cupcakes are moist without being overly sweet, which is exactly to my taste. The staff members are always welcoming and friendly, adding to the pleasant atmosphere of the place. Moreover, the interior design is charming and cozy. Whenever I need a little indulgence, I make sure to pick up one of their cupcakes. On my last visit, I was pleasantly surprised to receive two extra cupcakes for free, which I truly appreciated! Even after storing them in the fridge, they retained their moistness. Highly recommended!
A definite must try for cup-cake lovers! Over a dozen different flavors ranging from biscoff, lemon curd, chocolate eclair, vanilla bean and lots more. Employee was super helpful explaining what each cupcake was made up of. Can buy a single cupcake or as many dozen as you’d like (in advance). Inside there is limited seating available (~7chairs).
Lavender Moon has been my go-to spot for cupcakes since 2013. There’s something about their cupcakes that are so different that it makes you want to keep returning. Maybe it’s the texture of the cupcake or maybe the unique flavors they offer, but one thing I do know for sure is that they use very good ingredients. You can literally taste the difference.
They have a few staple flavors like vanilla bean with lemon curd that you can never go wrong with. However, I always try something unique like pistachio cherry or chocolate bourbon. Sure, I like some flavors better than other but I’ve never had a cupcake I could complain about from them.
I would consider this place a boutique cupcake place since their flavors as well their interior design is unique and quite whimsical. The staff are nice but I think they may be nicer to regulars than new customers from my observation and input from my friends when they pick up an order for me. It’s a small place so I wouldn’t suggest bringing a large group here unless it is for take-out.
Cupcakes are a priced fairly but definitely way more expensive than the ones you buy premade at the grocery store… but you’re paying for high quality ingredients and the taste is 100 times better. I can’t ever complain about their prices because it is simply worth it.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS BAKERY. The owner is completely unprofessional, rude and incompetent. I called to discuss the order with her before writing this review, hoping she would make this right, but instead she yelled at me and hung up on me. If you're looking to be disappointed and disrespected, Lavender Moon is your one stop shop for cupcakes!!!!
I ordered gender reveal cupcakes from this bakery to reveal the gender of my first baby, a boy, later this summer to my nieces and nephews (ages 3 to 7).
I placed the order weeks in advance and communicated the gender at that time. When I made the order, we confirmed I would pick up the order at 12pm on Sunday 3/17. When I went to pick them up at 12:15pm that day, the front door was locked. I had to knock in order for them to open. When I said I was there to pick up the order, the OWNER said that she didn't have an order for gender reveal cupcakes, she only had a different order for 2 dozen cupcakes.
THANK GOD I already knew the gender because the very unprofessional owner was yelling in the back about how she needed 6 cupcakes stat with a BLUE filling. She probably said blue at least 5 times. Again, thank God I already knew otherwise that would have been a beyond disappointing way to reveal something so exciting without my husband there with me.
I wait 15 minutes for the cupcakes. I know it was at least 15 minutes because I had my family waiting for me at a nearby restaurant for lunch. During this time, they were RUDELY turning customers away (at least 3) because they weren't prepared to open.
When I was leaving, she told me (for the FIRST TIME I MIGHT ADD) that they don't use dye so it would look purplish, but blue. The frosting in the middle that they claim to be "purple", which I might add is a TERRIBLE color for gender reveal cupcakes since - you guessed it - blue and pink make purple... is just straight up PINK. If they don't want to use dye, maybe use blue spirulina or cabbage or another natural color.
I'll give it to them - they tasted great, but NEVER AGAIN will I support this business. I hope you won't either.

I ordered one lemon custard and one double (or triple) peanut butter mousse cupcake. They were not appetizing although they *looked* good. Both did not taste fresh at all, and there was a weird aftertaste. Also, the atmosphere of the bakery was a bit dark. When I took the lemon custard cupcake out the container custard was leaking from a hole in the cupcake wrapper - which was messy. Needless to say I didn’t finish either and tossed both of them. If you want appetizing baked goods, try BUZZ Bakery. I went there after I trashed the other ones, and they were delicious!
