Tina's Bakery — Restaurant in Aldine

I’m not sure if it’s because there was a party in progress or because it was midday, but there weren’t as many cupcakes available as I would have expected. We did manage to find a couple of things that sounded and looked appealing. My first disappointment was that the striped straw on mine was paper. I used to have my own cake business and consider it a decorating fail to include inedible decorations. That should have been white chocolate. The frosting was the only part of the cupcake where I detected any flavors, but it didn’t stand out due to what tasted and felt like an excessively high shortening ratio in their recipe. The cake was moist, but downright boring. No filling, no special flavoring…just blah. I hate it when you order a fun sounding flavor just to wind up with glorified yellow cake. I know it’s a franchise and the store is just peddling the chain’s stock recipes, so it’s not like the owner is giving us something personal they concocted. Oh well, we...

My wife and I visited small cakes today when we were out running errands. We'd seen it come in and just have the general idea that it was about cupcakes. We went in and we were very warmly welcomed and then given a tour of all of their flavors. We had their cake smash explained to us and we're given many many different tasting spoons of their various handmade ice cream flavors. We had a great experience and their products taste top-notch. The only thing negative really is that next time my wife and I will just buy one and share it because they are so rich. I'm not much of a cupcake guy but these were very tasty. They are bit pricey but I believe they're in line with other similar establishments. They have a nice little dining area or you can take your food to go. Looks to me like it would be a fun place to bring a small group of little girls for a princess cupcake...

I love smallcakes. My favorite is the wedding cake flavor! So much so that I get it every year for my son’s birthday cake. Here is one this location made. The cakes are affordable because they are made with icing not fondant, so just keep that in mind. I purchased the cake, cake balls, and the cupcakes from there to match my son’s skateboard theme. All the cupcake toppers and cake topper came from an etsy shop.This cake was made in 2019.

Fast forward to April 2023, went to the location and realized it’s no longer there. However on their website they are still taking orders for delivery. So I emailed them and Tina was a breeze to talk with and order with. I love how the custom cake came out for my husband’s 29th birthday. Looks just like him. Thank you! And thank you...
