I was headed to dinner at a GF DF household and perplexed what to bring for dessert. I found Sweet Simon, and they baked me the most amazing cupcakes! Strawberry was the superstar, and also had vanilla and chocolate. Moist, delicious! Could not tell they were GF! They decorated beautifully, and were stunning! Thanks for coming through for me. Location is within a coffee shop, so a little unsure when I walked in, but great service and grateful to be able to order and have ready 24 hours later! Blessings ! A must have!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Incredibly delicious vegan & gluten free cupcakes! I was hesitant to order gluten free cupcakes (since I never fully enjoyed gluten free bakery items in the past), but Simon’s were incredible! The cupcakes were a great option for an office birthday party ~ they were so incredibly soft and delicious. Couldn’t get a picture of the full set. The second picture of 3 were all that was left over! We added little cupcake decor, and Simon was kind enough to match the frosting to the theme on short notice! In the future I definitely hope to order and try one of his custom pieces!
