Gigi's Cupcakes in Nashville, TN: Birthday Cake Surprise

We went to Nashville, TN this weekend and we went to Gigi's Cupcakes to review!

The cupcake we chose to review was the highest reviewed on Yelp.  The cheesecake cupcake of the day was called Birthday Cake Surprise.


Presentation 6/10  SPRINKLES
We were excited to try this cupcake place because of the look of the cupcakes in pictures we saw online. We thought the presentation of the birthday cake cupcake was pretty simple. It was actually tucked  in a refrigerator and not on display because it was cheesecake. We thought they could have done more decoration to show it was birthday themed - like a candle. Overall, the pink frosting was so neon and fun!

Taste & Texture 9/10 SPRINKLES
We absolutely loved this cupcake! It was so different than anything we have ever reviewed before.  The pink frosting to cheesecake ratio was a fantasic and never overpowering. The cheesecake was moist and melted in your mouth. The frosting was buttercream and very soft.  The bottom crust of the cheesecake was a very soft crumble of cinnamon graham crackers.

Overall 9/10 SPRINKLES
Overall, we think that this cupcake was phenomenal. We only can suggest two improvements on this cupcake. Shauna believes the crust could be a little thicker because she barely tasted the crust.  Our cupcake was also iced over a little and needed to thaw out before we could eat it.

Gigi's Cupcakes Nashville

Hi sprinklettes! Long time no blog! Sorry,  we have been so busy with our jobs! 

We went to Nashville, TN for a bachelorette party and stayed at a bed and breakfast off of www.airbnb.com called the Southern Stunner and it was amazing! We just wanted to show a picture from this cool house! 





Anyways, onto the cupcakes! We passed by Gigi's cupcakes on the way to and from the city.  We knew we had to bring  some home for you!



It was a small and cute store with a lot of varieties of cupcakes. We were reading reviews on Yelp on what to get and we found out that they had cheesecake cupcakes! Yum! 




We decided to get 3 cupcakes for every state we were traveling home through: Tennessee, Kentucky, and Indiana!



Stay tuned for the reviews. ... they will be up shortly!
