One of the sweetest new additions to Fort Mill is taking us back to simpler times with their gourmet cupcakes, cakes, and ice cream. In recent years the childhood cupcake has grown up to be sophisticated with every imaginable flavor. Local owner Kevin Barnes recently hosted a grand re-opening after experiencing staff shortages. He and his team are excited to provide some eatable joy during the holiday season!

Bring in a batch of freshly baked cupcakes and count the number of seconds before people’s eyes light up. Due to their small, easy to transport nature, cupcakes have long been a great way to cheer people up or brighten any occasion. You won’t even need to choose between flavors, anymore. Small Cakes bakes 12 signature flavors daily and  over 200 gourmet and ice cream flavors. You can get a great selection of all sorts of flavors so everyone can try a little bit of everything.

Oh, and did we mention they are guilt free, so if you’re watching your waistline or trying to cut back on sugar, spotting a massive slice of cake can be the siren’s call that ends your diet. This is yet another reason why a cupcake is our favorite dessert. There’s no need to feel guilty! Each cupcake comes individually wrapped, eliminating the temptation to cut yourself a bigger slice of cake or pie. You can even split the cupcake in half while minimizing calories or order a mini.  Make no mistake, these choices do add up. The average slice of chocolate cake contains 237 calories or a little over 10% of the daily recommended caloric intake. In comparison, a single cupcake often contains about 2/3 the number of calories. When push comes to shove, cupcakes are the perfect no-guilt dessert.

Small cakes can also bake a celebration cake for that special occasion or holiday. The holidays are a perfect occasion to share special desserts with your family and friends. If you find yourself searching for a thoughtful holiday gift a box of cupcakes might just be the perfect fit for that busy Mom or that someone with a sweet tooth on your list. Once again, cupcakes swoop in to save the day! A box of cupcakes makes the perfect gift for anyone in your life – Their name may be small but there is nothing small about the flavor.

Just remember to shop local and get the freshest and best tasting treats!
