Perfect. Perfect. Perfect.

The absolute best cupcakes I've ever had. Hands down. F***ing seriously. The ratio of frosting to cake is perfect, the cake is always moist and flavorful, the frosting...oh my Jesus. Always dense, perfectly buttery and just sweet enough. I actually cannot conceive how a cupcake could ever taste better.

Trophy wins the trophy.

Trophy Cupcakes and Party, of all the cupcake shops, has the moistest cake and pitch perfect sweetness, quantity and butteriness of frosting.

I've been to "Magnolia" in Greenwich Village, and Trophy is better.

Absolutely MOUTH WATERING

I went to the new store in the Bravern in Bellevue yesterday.....WOW...bought a 6-pack, got Coconut, Triple Chocolate, Carrot, Triple Chocolate and Vanilla Chocolate.
I almost swooned at the first bite of the Coconut...absolutely PERFECT, the icing is so smooth and melts in your mouth. Next, the Triple Chocolate...I have no words. It was literally like an explosion of chocolate nirvana in my mouth.
I can't quit thinking about them, and am already planning another trip to Bellevue so I can stop and buy myself another 6-pack. I want to try the Chai and Hummingbird next.

Might have good cupcakes, but bad service does it in.

Took off today to go get a dozen cupcakes. Arrived, told they were only selling in boxes of 6 (From one person, and only 4 from another). Told I would have to wait as the flavor wasn't done (no problem). Told by owner then that I needed to get back in line when the cakes were done. I know the day was busy, but come on! Won't be going back again.

It's sugar. But only sugar.

Trophy's array of unique flavors is one of the two things that bring me back: I'm not terribly likely to find green tea or chocolate-peanut butter cupcakes anywhere else. Likewise, their European hot chocolate-- hard to find elsewhere in Seattle, but they serve it just right, bittersweet, deadly, and in tiny cups. The rest of the place is take-it-or-leave-it to me. The icing tastes far, far too sweet... I often have to scrape off most of it. The chairs cause some sort of flashback to elementary school, and I can't shake the impression that the tables are part of an upscale school nurse's office. Perhaps it's unfair to blame Trophy Cupcakes for dredging up my childhood, but there it is.

The best cupcakes... ever.

I'm not a frosting person, but from the moment I first tasted the magical butter cream frosting my life has changed. I could eat that frosting by the handful even if it weren't accompanied by delicate, moist, and just all-around perfect cake. I've never tasted a cupcake better than Trophy's from any other bakery. Even my grandma's were never quite this good! Trophy has a variety of unique flavor combos that always work well - sometimes better than you might expect - but the triple chocolate is not to be missed if you love chocolate. I would call Trophy for any celebration, for kids or adults.

Holy Cupcake!

Trophy Cupcakes where have you been all my life? Moist delicious cake in tons of lip smacking flavors, rich & silky buttercream...with a hula dancer on top! Then, to really top it off, party hats, sparklers, candles... Trophy is my new "go-to" party shop. Love it!

My mouth starts salivating...

Beautiful packaging and beautiful cupcakes! Their cupcakes are so moist and delicious - I made my sweetheart so happy when I presented him with two cupcakes packaged in a nice trophy cupcakes box....can't wait till there are more locations, but it is really easy to get to their location in Wallingford Center.

They've taken cupcakes beyond a trend and made it into an art!

That a cupcake could blow your socks off! I work in the building and have seen it from start to finish (and hold myself personally responsible for the PB&J cupcake...indeed. The cupcakes are moist and delicious and the new mint choc. chip....sooo good but my favorite so far was their special Saint Patty's day Guiness Stout cupcake with Baily's Irish cream frosting (beyond words). A tad on the pricey side, but they are so rich that one cupcake could probably be shared by two (depending on how much of a sweets person you are). Friendly awsome staff and I have no doubt they'll be around for a very very long time. The only downfall? They are addictive :-P

Now THAT is a CUPCAKE.

I appreciate the fact that Verite/Cupcake Royal brought cupcakes to town, but was surprised that given their narrow focus, they made what seemed to me to be a dry somewhat tasteless cupcake. I've since been told that some people prefer this kind of cupcake. OK. For those of you who like your cupcake to be moist and super-flavorful there is Trophy. They do it to as you only wish you could do it yourself. They have the traditional chocolate-type cupcakes, but also explore the boundaries of the possible with gren tea cupcakes, and regular specials (frankly I see no reason to go there, but for those of you who are foodies and like cupcakes... they have you covered). Their location would seem somewhat unfortunate, but it turns out it's not as bad as it would appear. Quite comfortable and pleasant. I'd give them 5 stars if they moved to Capitol Hill.
