Frequently Asked

CUPCAKES & CAKES

What days do you have the Bacon Cupcakes?
Monday, Thursday and Saturday
What is the best time to get cupcakes?
Our full, daily selection is available after 11am daily. Any earlier and we might have some flavors. But because we bake them fresh daily, it takes time to cool, make icings, and decorate. A little patience gets you a lot of cupcakes.
Sometimes you run out of cupcakes, and I end up suffering the five stages of grief?
Unfortunately we cannot predict the pattern of cupcake traffic on any level. We encourage you to call ahead. We can set aside as little as one of your favorite flavors or several dozens.
Do you deliver cupcakes/cakes?
Tee & Cakes delivers cupcakes and cakes to the Boulder area for a $10.00 fee. There is a minimum of a dozen cupcakes for delivery orders. 6" cake will also do the trick. Great idea for students, long-distance relationships, ass-kissing, and clients.
Should the cupakes be refigerated?
Our cupcakes are best enjoyed at room temp. You can refrigerate until about an hour or so before you about to enjoy Boulder's Best Cupakes and allow them to come to room temp. Most flavors do not need to refrigerated at all, however, if you are enjoying them the day you got them.
Do you bake the cupcakes here?
We sure do. Hand-made from scratch daily. We do all of our baking and decorating in house. We use Morning Fresh Dairy for our cakes and cupcakes.

How about shaped cakes?
Tee & Cakes' chef is capable of doing just about anything under the sun, however due to the intracacy of these types of cake more advanced notice is required. A week would be preferred. Please check out some samples in our Custom Cake Gallery.
Which one is your favorite cupcake?
It changes with the wind.
Do you do gluten-free cakes and cupcakes?
No. We, unfortunately don't have the kitchen space to allocate for gluten free products without risk of cross-contamination with gluten.
What about vegan, then?
Yes, we are currently offering vegan cupcakes on Wednesdays and Fridays.
You must get here so early to bake all this stuff... what time?
The magical cupcake eleves do most of the work in the wee hours. So modest and talented are these lil fellas!
How much notice do you need to place an order?

It all depends on when, what, how and how many.

For cakes: 48 hours is preffered. However, we very often book up on Fridays and Saturdays for orders, so the more notice the better. A week is usually enough.

For cupcakes: If ordering directly off the menu and no special decorations and what have you, then the day before you need them at the latest. Again, the more notice, the better the guarantee you get your order. Special orders requiring icing colors, additional decorations, etc we would need the 48 hours and keep in mind that our weekend days are very busy.

Do you ship?
We don't ship cupcakes. We're not even sure how to even go about this. Deep freeze before overnight shipping? We prefer fresh over frozen.
Peanut (or nut) Allergies
Tee & Cakes has a small kitchen that uses nuts in certain baked goods such as our granola and banana bread, so we cannot guarantee there was no cross contamination at all. Although we want everybody to enjoy our cupcakes, we advise people with very serious allergies to refrain from the cupcakes.
Do you write on cakes?
Absolutely. The chef has a beautiful script that we often use on cakes, just let us know when you place an order.
Your cupcakes are better than sex, huh?
I wonder what that's all about. So many opinions and so subjective...

What kind of coffee do you use?
Tee & Cakes proudly serves Novo Coffee--a Denver roaster dedicated to serving quality, small-batch coffee and espresso. Tee & Cakes creates wonderful specialty coffee drinks on par with "official" coffee shops. Cupcakes and coffee are, indeed, a magical combination.
