Very clean business. Plenty of parking is available. Nice eating area. BUT LET’S GET TO THE BEST PART… the desserts!!! Oh my goodness, 1 of them didn’t make it home. I had to eat it in the car. Too many good ones to have a favorite. Lol. Very moist and delicious. I’m going back soon.
That was the best coconut cake I have ever had. Absolutely would recommend to anyone. Can’t wait to try other flavors!
Seriously the best piece of Neapolitan cake I’ve ever had. And I’m not even a huge icing fan but it was phenomenal and not too sweet..A man, one of the employees even engaged in good old-fashioned conversation that he didn’t have to while standing out in the southern heat.. it helps to say my baby is cute too!!Thank you for a seriously needed treat on a hot day. And the cake with cold, just the way I like it!!
One of the best cake places you can go to. Wonderful cupcakes and cakes. Great service. Also fresh.
We really like the owner's story: from convict to baker to successful business owner. He recently purchased a building on S. Alston Avenue in Durham (the old Halgo deli) and relocated there. We stopped by and got some cupcakes to go after visiting the library across the street. To be honest, the cupcakes and icing our a little too sweet for our tastes, but I know they have fans. At the counter, there was no sign indicating what the cupcakes and cake slices were, so the staff person had to list them for us. There are tables inside but we did not notice any coffee or other options. Maybe that's coming one day, we don't know. PS, we love the cupcake "selfie spot" mural from Darius Quarles, one of our favorite artists.
I love to support Black-owned businesses. Favors Desserts is one of my all-time favorites. I usually order cupcakes or a slice of the three-layer cake. The carrot cake cupcake is AMAZING! There's chunks of walnuts and the cream cheese icing is so creamy. When it comes to three-layer sliced cakes, Italian cream is my go-to. The cupcakes make a great gift for a friend, party, or celebration.
The best cake you can put in your mouth!!Try one of everything!! You can't go wrong with any of the selections! Don't forget to call and order ahead if you can! Be curious and try a few different kinds, you will be glad you did!
I’ve been coming here for cake for years but never really cupcakes. I got 6 cupcakes for my job to try and they were a hit! Super good cake and cupcakes.
I ordered & had the Pineapple layer cake with Pineapple & Coconut frosting shipped to me in Florida. Amazingly good
I wish I could TEN stars. They have made a FAT girl happy. Now how do I order five favor Pound cake. Am going a least 5 wholes.
