I've really enjoyed this subscription box and look forward to it every month! I received it as a gift for Christmas and the red velvet cupcake was my favorite recipe so far closely followed by the biscotti with the lovely essence of orange from the orange peel. The recipes are easy to follow and I love the fact that they post them on their website in case I want to make it again.

I've tried other subscriptions like this but this beats them 1000x over! The packaging is gorgeous, the recipe cards are gorgeous, everything is just amazing. The only bummer is that the measurements aren't on the recipe cards so there's no way of recreating the delicious goods 😭

Thank you so much, Danielle! We so appreciate your kind words. We offer every recipe with full quantities and measurements on the website in our RECIPE tab via the footer. So you can recreate these whenever you want. Let us know if you need anything else! Thank you :)

I wish I could post a video of my utter and sheer joy of this box. My first box ever came in the mail and I couldn't tear it open fast enough. The month of october was pumpkin cupcakes and a chocolate pecan torte. I followed each recipe according to given instructions the only thing I changed was I didn't use the included spices with the pumpkin cupcakes I used a spice called five spice since I personally find it makes pumpkin anything amazing. Both desserts turned out amazing. So perfect and so happy! I think this is perfect for kids and adults of any skill level!

I have tried numerous baking boxes and this is the best one by far. Not only do you get 2 recipes (not 1 like almost every other box out there), but you get recipes that feed your family. 18 cupcakes, or cakes that feed 10-12 people. The packaging is premium and the recipes are just as high end as Martha Stewart or Bon Apetit magazine. I am so impressed month after month!
Thanks so much, Gabrielle! We're so glad you are impressed and we love having you bake with us. Excited to get you some more Martha Stewart style recipes :)
Wonderful subscription!

The Red Velvet NYC box was was excellent for this non-baker. I can honestly say the cupcakes were simple to make, beautiful to look at and delicious to eat!!!

The box was packaged beautifully! Everything was neatly sorted into a bag for each of the two recipes. So far I have only made the cookies. I was amazed at the result, I felt like a pro. My husband took them to work and they were a huge hit. I can’t wait to make the cake that also came in the box. And I for sure can’t wait for next month. Amazing job guys! I have gotten tons of different subscription boxes and this is probably the best I have ever received.

We love this box! Beautifully presented with a red ribbon, a very sweet hand written encouragement note and tucked in white tissue paper. Two different recipes that are amazingly delicious and easy. Perfectly labeled and measured ingredients. We were just amazed by this crate.
Thank you for the sweet note.

I got this box as a gift for my fiancé’s mother and my mother. They were both really excited when they opened it. My mom was glad about the exact measurements and ingredients.
I also got to try the desserts they made, they were delicious.

Disappointing and NOT worth $49

We were EXTREMELY unimpressed from the moment we opened the box. The box itself was punctured, but that could very well have happened in transit so I'm not dinging the company for that. First, the vanilla had leaked all over the inside of one of the bags, but thankfully we had our own. Then, the butter wasn't even cold. It looked like the cold packaging was not adequately sealed and thus not cold when it arrived. So packaging is an issue for this company, it seems.
As for the producuts: we received recipes and ingredients for a coconut cake and a lemon tart. We made the coconut cake tonight and even after carefully following the instructions, it didn't rise--not even a little. My guess is that the baking powder was old or had been frozen at some point. Now we're left with two coconut pancakes to frost instead of a two-layer cake. The taste of the cake was nothing special or impressive, either. Maybe the lemon tart will wow us...but I'm not holding out much hope.
Bottom line: This was super basic, the freshness of the ingredients was questionable, and the packaging was not temperature appropriate. Basically, I just paid $49 for what would cost, at most, $15 if I'd bought the individual ingredients myself.

Hi Ashley, We're really sorry to hear about your experience with the Coconut Cake. This is of course, not what we aim for -- we want our bakers to be happy! I'm personally disappointed to hear that you wrote a very negative review (we've never received 1 star) without even trying to bake the second baking kit. During this immense time of crisis, we ask for patience and understanding in regards to shipping. FedEx and UPS are doing the best they can and it sounds like they damaged your box and treated it so roughly that an ingredient broke in transit. We are always happy to replace anything that gets broken or damaged but you did not contact us to do so so we have...
So happy I ordered!

I am not a baker, but I needed a delicious dessert for an event. I decided to order Red Velvet after one of my friends recommended the company, and I couldn't have been more satisfied. First of all, portions are huge! Every single person got a dessert (with some getting two!). Secondly, it was delicious. I don't know how many people asked me for the recipe, and I had to keep saying that I would get back to them about it. Lastly, beautiful. The desserts looked almost too good to eat. Thank you! Will definitely be ordering again.
Thank you so much, Annie! So happy to hear this and can't wait to get you baking with us again soon!

If I can do it, anyone can make these cupcakes. I was looking for something to give my wife for mother's day. My wife had ordered from the company in the past, so I decided to surprise her with a dessert made by me and our daughter. It did not disappoint. All the ingredients were high quality, which is important to my family, especially my wife. The cupcakes were really fun to make with Hailey, they were delicious and looked really nice. My wife was so happy and surprised. Either I or my wife will order again. thank you for making cupcakes that rock, and letting a dad hang out with his daughter.
Thanks so much for your review! So glad to hear that your cupcakes turned out well, and that you were able to bake with your daughter - there's nothing we like to hear more than families baking together :) We hope you keep enjoying baking with us! Feel free to send or post pictures, Geoff! Thanks again for being a great customer!!

My daughter was so sweet to purchase this cookie kit for my birthday. I love to bake but cookies not my thing and time consuming. However, we are Linzer tart fanatics and the best ones come from NY bakeries but we’ve lived in NC for 27 years. I cannot believe I made these!! Lost a few as I rolled out too thin but otherwise came out bakery quality. The two heart cutters are essential. One the ideal cookie size and then a small heart for the cut out. Put together very well. I supplied the egg and stick of butter. Honestly, I would not want perishables in the kit because my box sat for a bit in the pantry and still worked well months later. Sweet gift!!
Unique gift!
