Richmond - Carytown Cupcakes

If you're looking at Richmond homes for sale, Carytown is a can't-miss neighborhood--even if you only come for the cupcakes. Nestled in the middle of one of our city's most eclectic shopping and dining districts, Carytown Cupcakes is a creative boutique bakery that's well worth a trip to Cary Street. From flavors based on children's books to boozy happy hour specials, this bakery has plenty of sweet surprises in store for Richmond residents.

Here are some of our favorite things to do at Carytown Cupcakes:

  • Try the Latest Seasonal Theme
    Creativity is encouraged in this kitchen, and it shows. A rotating menu brings new seasonal treats and pop culture creations every few months, so there's always something new to try, like the bakery's famous Harry Potter-themed cupcakes (complete with tiny sorting hats). Warm up in winter with blackberry cobbler, then celebrate spring with refreshing lemon berry pound cake… each season brings new ingredients and flavor combinations.

  • Enjoy Cupcakes with Wine or Beer
    Prefer some adult delights with your favorite childhood treats? This cupcake spot is also a bar! Behind the counter, craft beer, cider, and kombucha are always on tap, and a handful of wines are available too. Whether you meet friends here for a low-key happy hour (they have drink specials every day of the week) or take a moment to yourself before heading home with the kids' treats, this is a cozy place to sip and savor.  

  • Ask for Vegan and Gluten-Free Cupcakes
    Avoiding animal products? Can't tolerate gluten? No problem. Carytown Cupcakes caters to clientele with different dietary restrictions, and they don't limit their options to a few boring staples. Vegan and gluten-free cupcakes are represented on the rotating seasonal menu, and two of each are available year-round too. The vegan maple pecan flapjack cupcake could be the most delicious flavor on the permanent menu – period.

  • Support a Growing Local Business
    When you enjoy a cupcake, you help Richmond's economy continue to thrive. Carytown Cupcakes is one of Richmond's many locally owned small businesses, and as it flourishes, so do the opportunities for Richmond. Recently, they opened a second location in the Short Pump Town Center, adding cupcakes to your next mall trip and at least seven more positions to their staff. They also support other local businesses, selling King of Pops popsicles and Nightingale ice cream sandwiches in both stores, and offer local deliveries and catering services to make life that much sweeter.
