  • Can we say H-Y-P-E? Not hype in the good way, but this place is not all that impressive. So, I recently moved from Chicago, and there are some pretty amazing bakeries there. I've basically been in cupcake withdrawal since November, so with the general consensus saying that Sprinkles was the spot...I figured why not drive to Scottsdale and try it. First and foremost, the catty service has to go. I understand that the employees may work/live in Scottsdale and think it gives them some elite status, but the eye rolls weren't welcoming. The women had a chip on their shoulder and couldn't answer a simple question without acting like I had disturbed their day. I decided to move past the subpar service and focus on the prize, cupcakes. I chose the black & white and a red velvet to take home. Honestly, it scared me that the people had to go to the back to get me my cupcakes instead of pulling them from the display case. It felt like I was at Finish Line, and they had to go pull stock from the back. I could understand that whole concept a lot better if they had just ran out of what I ordered, but there was seriously a dozen of each out in front. Why not grab those and sell them to your patrons? Anyways, I felt that the buttercream on the red velvet was mediocre. It tasted more like vanilla than cream cheese. A disappointment to say the least. I'm a huge fan of red velvet, and the frosting can make or break the experience. The black & white was far better. Dark chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream and dark chocolate shavings, but I wasn't blown away. As far as the pricing is concerned, $7.00 for 2 cupcakes of this caliber is a little extreme. I understand that stars frequent the Sprinkles shop in Beverly Hills, and that the stores are placed in affluent neighborhoods because of their celebrity allure, but ugh. I thought that was a little bit of an overkill. I don't think that I will be returning, even if I'm desperate for my cupcake fix.
