Daniel Garvey

I was visiting from NYC and I have to say that this is one of the best bakery’s I have visited! The staff is very friendly and helpful. The cupcakes are flavorful but not too rich where you feel like you are having a sugar over load. I highly recommend stopping in!!!!

Aaron Goldschmidt

A must try bakery in Denver. I’m pretty sure I’ve tried every cupcake on the menu

Meg L.

Love this place....seriously. Best cakes, cookies and pies I've ever had. And lucky me that it's located only a block away from where I work. My sweet tooth is consistently satisfied.

Pretty small shop, but cupcake was decent. I got a red velvet cupcakes, but it didn't have any filling in the cake part.

I moved to Florida my daughter stayed in Colorado to finish out her school year at the private school she got a scholarship for I never realized how hard it would be Her birthday was yesterday after calling 50+ places and being rejected Mermaid cupcakes called me after I sent an e-mail saying YES they could deliver .. My daughter cried and said it was the best present she could have gotten most amazing cupcakes. Thank you for making this day special for her

Jennifer Estep

The cupcakes are good but the customer service is not. I tried several times to get in touch with the owner (whom I was told I need to talk to make a wedding cake/cupcake order). I called several times and was told to call back at a certain time when she was there so I did but she was busy. I left a message with my order details and my contact info but she did not return my call. I also sent an order request/email on their website to no avail. It doesn't matter if the cupcakes taste alright if the owner refuses to speak with you to take your order. When you are trying to plan a wedding it gets stressful when weeks go by and your preferred bakery isn't returning your calls.

We selected Mermaids Bakery to put together the cupcakes and cake for our wedding. They were amazing. I'm not sure what was going on with the other folks that gave them bad marks but, they were great from the word go. They were very professional and friendly. They delivered everything on time and worked with the venue. Everyone raved about how amazing the cupcakes and cake looked and tasted. They were literally gone in seconds. Diana and her crew were fabulous to work with. I recommend them to everyone and will continue to do so. I am so glad that they were a part of our perfect day.

joey delgado

I want to thank Diana so much for the gorgeous cake she recently did for my wedding. The taste and design was everything and more than what I could ask for. She made sure every detail was jotted down at the consultation and we were able to make a really artistic collaboration. She has a really great eye and trusted her completely. I ordered several dozen assorted cupcakes as well and by far thee best cupcakes in the city! I love how she has really artisan flavors! Salted caramel and snickers were my favorite! I can tell she made them all with love just as she did with my cake. Thank you so much guys!!! It just made our special day super amazing. I recommend Mermaids to all! friendly staff and delicious cupcakes. Definitely coming back again to treat myself thats for sure!

Zachery Wilson

Delicious cupcakes, some of the best I've ever had.

Andrea Musick

We ordered the German Chocolate cake and I cant express how wonderful it was! The icing was delicious! I really dont understand the negative reviews because the cake we received was absolutely perfect! We will definitely be getting our cakes here again.

Ashley Armstrong

I recently adopted my two step sons and got a cake for our party here. The women were very helpful and offered to order new cookie cutters in order to give me a puzzle piece design on the frosting. The cake was delicious and the design was better than i could have ever expected! They will continue to get my business!

JK Campbell

I sincerely don't understand all the negative reviews! I freaking LOOOOOVE Mermaids and I can testify that their buttercream is REAL Swiss meringue made with real butter and the perfect level of sweetness. This place has the real deal!

Sergio Flores

Andrea McGinn

The perfect cupcake! Placed an order over the phone a couple weeks before a coworker's wedding shower, easy pick-up at 7am when they opened (they deliver too). Ordered 2 doz large (German and Lemon Drop), and 2 doz small (Cinnamon Churro and Strawberry Milkshake). They were dense and moist with the most fluffy and perfectly sweet frosting, and huge too - what a great value! Everyone at the office loved them (we are a hard-to-please bunch) - Large assortment of flavors, will definitely be coming back and recommending to others!

Cortney Branscome Burkard

Bakery will not return calls or messages for consult? Have tried calling, emailing, and contact thru website-- we had our hearts set on several of their flavors, and were wowed by cute designs. Unfortunately, after two wks of efforts, will use another vendor due to nonresponse.

Meghan Sinneck

i would love to give this bakery a better rating as the first time i went in years ago it was marvelous, they had options in both small and large sizes, cupcakes, cakes, and cookies, and pretty good hours for a sweets shop but the last few months something has clearly changed. I have left work early three times to get there before it closes and the display cases are always EMPTY, and i mean *empty* people, not even crumbs. I came in *before* work once to see if maybe it was me, but no, the display cases were empty - EMPTY - at 9am as well (They open at 7). I sent my roommate who absolutely loves the joint to try during the day thinking I must just have bad luck. Guess what? Empty cases. There was someone sweeping and two people baking that i could see on each visit as well but nothing to show for it. Maybe they have switched to a production bakery only but then they should lock their front door so foolish customers like me won't come in and expect to be able to buy something at a store that claims to have products. Gonna try one more time but I am not hopeful. Update: a year later and we tried to order a cake and 20 cupcakes for my birthday. Not only did Mermaid lose our order entirely they didn't seem to care. Really disappointed. Can't even get sweets from them with proper planning. Will never frequent this shop again.

Nicole S

Purchased a cake for my sons 5th birthday. He only had a couple of bites, as well as the guests. Everyone thought the icing tasted like straight butter or Crisco. My son also was sad because I specifically told them my son loves the color red and cars...he only got one fondant red car and a few other fondant airplanes and GREY writing..seriously...where's the red!? I did not mention anything to the clerk when I picked it up because obviously there was no time...his party was starting soon!! Will not return...wasted money because nobody even ate the cake.

Michaela Hartfelder

It was okay. The cupcakes we're moist but the funfetti tasted like cream of wheat and was a little bitter. Frosting wasn't sweet and honestly tasted more like butter then frosting. All in all wasn't terrible but it wasn't great. Also kind of expensive. 4$ for one cupcake and 14.50$ for four. Not the best not the worst.

Came in looking for cupcakes, found amazing flavors! They even had candles to use for a birthday! Would recommend.

Mermaid's bakery made the most beautiful and delicious wedding cakes for me last year. As I got ready to order a small version of our cake, I realized why have I not shared this info. We ordered several cakes for our large wedding. The wedding cake was a three tier, smooth white with personalized details of a back heel and iron man; simple and elegant. It was their delicious Churro flavor, yes Churro!! I still have guests ask me where that cake came from and how they can get more churro cake. In order to save some money (who doesn't need that when planning a wedding) Diana recommended a sheet cakes for serving. One was a moist white cake, filled with fresh raspberries, and a light white frosting and the other strawberry lemonade; several guests sampled multiple flavors! But the hit of the night (that guests were photographing) was the cookies and cream Chipotle Burrito groom's cake and Zombie hand reaching out. My husbands two obsessions! I've done my fair share of cake eating across Colorado and Mermaid's is truly the best. They took time to discuss cake ideas, provide feedback when requested, accommodate questions from multiple people and delivered both visually and tummy pleasing cakes!

Joe Augustine

I ordered the Strawberry Lemon Cake for my wife's birthday and had Mermaids Bakery deliver it to her work for her and her coworkers. HUGE hit!!! Everyone at her work loved the cake and 3 people said that it was "the best cake they have EVER had". That says it all :)

Sue Haver

My office often orders cupcakes from Mermaid and they are always fresh and delicious. My favorite frosting is the Swiss meringue buttercream - perfect complement to the chocolate cupcake! This might be the very best frosting I have EVER had! Mermaids also made the cupcakes for my daughter's baby shower and made the absolute perfect combination of colors and tastes - all our guests were delighted.

Kurtis Griess

Best cake I've ever had! Amazing frosting and great flavor and texture! Simply perfect wedding cake and we love the cupcakes too!

Sunshine T

Absolutely delicious cupcake. Absolutely fabulous staff. Will certainly return!

Seriously who is able to get here before 3 pm on a work day? From now on I am going to the corner bakery for my baking needs

Jacob Donohoue

Definitely a family favorite. No place I would trust more to create consistently delicious confections.

The swiss butter cream frosting is amazing! I 've been to all the trendy cupcake shops and none of them compare to Mermaids. No wonder I hear people in my office say "man, I want a mermaids cupcake!" they've definitely made a name for themselves in Denver!

Jason Hart

Just a quick stop in for my wife and I, now were hooked. We use them for all of our sweet toothing. Great prices, moist cakes, and very good people.

Julianna Nieves

To Die For!!!! I ordered cheesecake cake and key lime pie for a 40th birthday and both were absolutely AMAZING! The key lime pie is so unique and is now his favorite, he asks me to get him one for every occasion.

Alison Milan

Mermaids is the BEST. I ordered a cake for my sister's wedding and it was absolutely beautiful and delicious. They were so helpful and accommodating. I will be using them for all of my future cake needs!!

Baby Greyson

We were SO excited to visit, but once we got there and walked in, there was a young guy leaning over the counter, we asked if there was any cupcakes out today, and as he was still leaning over, on his phone, said “not right now”, and continued taking on the phone. Really disappointed..

s fox

I've had many cupcakes and cakes from Mermaids, and they are absolutely the best I've ever tasted. The gluten-free cakes - you can't even tell they're GF! I recommend them to all my friends. The frosting is just heavenly. The variety of flavors is amazing. Oh and if that weren't enough, the visual effects they can create are stupendous! Just check out their gallery and I'm sure you'll be impressed. Of course, when you're as good as Mermaids, you gotta expect the competition to get on here and write a no-good, awful review, complete with less than 3rd grade spelling, grammar and punctuation. :) Good luck to all the others, because Mermaids is the best in town, hands down!

Ordered a bunch of gluten-free cupcakes for my son's birthday. The cupcake are light and easy to eat and doesn't take over your mouth like supermarket types. The frosting aren't over-sweetened -- its just right! If anyone need a cake or any type (gluten-free or not), I suggest Mermaids. You cannot go wrong.

Hayden Lee

I wen to Denver with friends, and just stopped by this bakery. I can say literally their cupcakes were awesome! Good luck!

Yuni Groff

The cupcakes are nice and moist, but the frosting is usually too sweet. They rarely have a selection of flavors to choose from after 10am, so we've been disappointed at lunch a number of times. We had a good experience ordering ahead for work though!

Clayton Brown

One of the best gluten free cupcakes I've had!

Mia Su Cary

Mermaids cupcakes are beautiful and delicious! Made for a lovely birthday celebration.

Will NEVER order from them again..customer service is horrible..when I spend $150 on cupcakes and told over the phone TWICE that there are small boxes for people to take a cupcake home..I do not want to walk in to pay, just to be told there's a $.25 charge per box. I will take mediocre taste w/excellent customer service anyway over this mess..

Bland cake, accusations, nothing offered to correct situation but an offer to refer to ANOTHER bakery who has american buttercream frosting (an assumption that that was what I wanted "gritty super sweet frosting make with vegetable shorting"). The frosting had no flavor. It was not sweet, not did it have FLAVOR. It did not even taste like butter. The most similar flavor was like other reviews I read.... Crisco or Vegetable shorting. Please see my original email (I previously sent a message on the website but received no response). I posted the response I received. From there my sister had interactions with this bakery. No solutions were offered. I asked them to contact my sister (I did provide her number in the original email). I was hoping they would offer a pie or cookies in an effort to correct the situation and keep customers. Apparently $60 on a cake disliked by four people and "you got what you paid for attitude" is good enough for them! : My email: Dated June 9 2016: I am disappointed I received no response to my prior message (submitted) on the website about the horrible salted caramel cake that was purchased on June 8th, 2016 by my sister, Bobbi XXXXXX, for my birthday. As I said previously, the thick swiss buttercream frosting was bland. It had no taste. The only taste it was similar to was vegetable shortening. The cake and small amount of caramel inside did not make up for that horrible frosting on the outside. And, at this point there has been no attempt to right the situation. 3 other people had this cake with me and enjoyed by none. I feel horrible my sister paid for such an expensive cake and it be so bad. I sincerely hope you reach out to my sister to correct the situation. -Jessica ------------------------------------- The response I received: (accusations, suggesting I wanted super sweet frosting, and she did not contact my sister who paid $60 for a cake no one liked) Hello, This is the first email I have received regarding this matter, the cake was actually frosted and made the way we have always made them. This cake in particular was actually baked and frosted by our bakery manager herself. After we frosted cake there are usually scraps left over from trimming the cake, we were eating those scraps all afternoon and they were fine. The only time that the frosting would be tasteless and have a greasy taste and feel, is if the cake was eaten cold. We informed the person that picked up the cake that it must be eaten at room temperature. This is very important it's a very strict rule that we have in the bakery, we tell everybody who picks up anything from us but it must be eaten at room temperature. If the frosting is cold it will be tasteless and it will taste like pure butter and it will feel greasy. We do not use any shortening in our frosting. Swiss meringue buttercream is not super sweet but we make it the same and it is the same buttercream we have used for eight years, this buttercream is enjoyed by almost everyone who comes into our bakery. We do not have any other complaints about the frosting being tasteless or greasy. Most people just expect that supersweet gritty frosting which is made with shortening. Our shop manager actually added more caramel to the center of the cake, she made sure that there was enough. It is impossible for us however to stop the caramel from being absorbed into the cake. It sounds like the problem is a matter of personal preference, and not due to the cake or frosting itself. We have people who come in and order just cups of the frosting and eat it with a spoon. I'm sorry we could not win you over with our awesome frosting and cake. We understand that it's not for everyone, there are other bakeries that do you make the super sweet American buttercream with shortening and powdered sugar. That may be something that you prefer and we would be happy to refer you to bakeries that use that type of frosting. As far as your order I can assure you that you received exactly what you ordered. Thank you so much! Diana

Really upset about ordering from this bakery. Ordered a birthday cake for my boyfriends birthday. Cake design was awesome!!!! I was so excited to taste it but I was so disappointed. I got the strawberry lemonade cake but they didn’t even give me lemon cake, it was vanilla. Cake is sitting in my fridge with one slice out of it. Sucks cause I paid way more than what I was told. Not to mention I live in boulder so it wasn’t the best drive. Only reason I give them 2 stars & not 1 is the design was really cool.

Jen J. J. Johnson

They make exceptional cupcakes here.

April Gonzales

Sooo yummy

Monica Ayala

These are the best cupcakes in Denver.

Aja Rose

I never feel compelled to write reviews or read them because I feel like people just come on to complain. However, I came in a couple of days ago and gave the specific instructions on this birthday cake that I needed, and I likely stressed out the lady at the front desk with all my questions. ( you would be surprised how hard it is to find a bakery that makes a vanilla frosting without cream cheese). When I arrived, it was pretty to look at and seems very stable. ( they need bags to put the cakes in). For the party that night I received rave reviews, and people asked where I got it from. I want to thank the staff for being helpful and understand with my request and making a great cake. I will be back !

hi there

cortney hartnett

My girlfriend got my birthday cake from here. It was the strawberry one and it was so so delicious!

Laurie Sherman

Picked up a variety of 30 cupcakes for an office party. They were a huge hit!

Jeff Gielissen

Best carrot cake I have ever had, and I don't usually like carrot cake. Can't wait to get a chance to try something else. A little hard to find and construction going on in front. Worth the effort.

Sam Lieurance

Love the flavor of the cookies, cakes and cupcakes. However be aware they sell out. So go early! I like this that they sell out though that means they aren't over producing products to be sure quality and they keep waste down. They make beautiful cakes!

Trixie

For their GLUTEN FREE cupcakes ⭐⭐⭐⭐ For Mermaids attitude about GF ⭐⭐ I came across this business using the Find Me GF app and was excited to know that there was an option for a cupcake. They have a limited selection of GF cupcakes. Definitely not a gluten-free facility (but I did not expect it to be. OK if they take measures to not cross contaminate). I did mention to them that the gluten-free cupcakes were underneath the regular cupcakes (but on trays), so there is a small potential for some uncontaminated cupcakes to become contaminated once they are in the display case. The girl at the counter just understand that. Then a woman who seemed to be in charge interjected, "It's not a gluten-free facility and there's always a chance of cross contamination. That's mentioned on our website.... It only matters if you're Celiac". Mmmm, OK...Nope. Not just for Celiac! I get a immune reaction (antibodies in my bloodstream), so I don't get any intestinal symptoms like Celiacs do. That attitude just tells me the Mermaids don't understand the full depth of gluten sensitivity. If they did, why would they chose to potentially cross-contaminate their product in the sales case? Why not move them to the top on the side? So, I ate the cupcake. Product review: The texture wasn't very dense, slightly spongy but more firm, yet not dry. The frosting was very light and fluffy. Not overly sweet which I thought was good. So all in all, I'd say it was a solid grade B /B+ GF cupcake. Not as good as my favorite (2Good2be) but definitely better than a lot of others I have tried. The main reason the Mermaids score got dinged was due to the attitude of the woman running the kitchen. Even though she is making GF cupcakes, when I interacted with her, she seemed to have little knowledge or concern as to the depth of gluten sensitivities. I will give them kudos for what looked like a separate workstation for the gluten-free cupcakes across the kitchen from the regular ones but they should also have a separate corner of their display case.

The food was tasty. I'll return family next time.

Brian Quinn

I ordered a cake very last minute, due to being a ruthless procrastinator. Mermaid's was very quick to get back to me to confirm my order. The cake was ready to pick up exactly when they said it would be, and it was very delicious. We ordered the 8" red velvet cake with the Swiss merengue buttercream icing. Definitely enough for 8-10 people, and worth every penny. I'll definitely be ordering again.

Janelle Pinney

I was excited to go here from looking at all the delicious cupcakes and pies, sadly there wasn't a variety available.

Kristina Sturgill

This place is amazing. Decent pricing for their amazing product.

Samarah Iftikhar

The entire team at Mermaids Bakery is amazing! They truly listen and can create something special for any occasion. I’ve ordered two birthday cakes so far and not only did they look beautiful, but they tasted phenomenal too!

April Davila

They have great cupcakes made from scratch.

Eric Wilks

Had the Strawberry Fields cake. It could have been the greatest tasting cake I have had. I have had many of their cupcakes as well. Not a miss in the bunch.

Matthew Gundlach

We purchased the funfetti cupcake. It had absolutely no flavor. It tasted like they forgot to add sugar. We ended up throwing half of it away.

Alyssa Beck

I wanted to love it, and it wasn't bad... but for the hassle it was to get there, I cannot see myself venturing in again any time soon. It was also relatively confusing trying to get into the place....

Krystal Coe

Super delicious and we still go back after buying our wedding cake we just got our sons birthday cake there and it's great we love this place and they really work with you!

Monique Laidlaw

DIANA IS THE BEST!! She came up with the perfect black panther cake for my youngest sons 5th birthday. They also did my oldest sons 2nd birthday cake....it was a Mickey mouse cake.

Kimmy the Great

I ordered cupcakes for my birthday party this weekend, and I was so delighted with my experience with Mermaids Bakery from beginning to end. They are so nice, easy to deal with, and best of all the cupcakes are seriously delicious! AND beautiful! I think maybe I didn’t realize the difference between frosting and buttercream... but let me tell you the buttercream topping on the cupcakes is so freaking delicious! Thank you to everyone at Mermaids for the great cupcakes and the great service! You made my birthday extra happy for sure :)

Cory Isaacson

We planned a last minute holiday party for our company. I called Mermaids and they said they could deliver. We got the Tres Leches cake and a Gluten Free German Chocolate cake, both were awesome -- the hit of the party. Great service, and incredibly good desserts. In fact one of our team members said the GF cake deserved an award.

John Bartley

I'm not typically a review writer, but felt compelled in this case. The cupcakes are delicious, without a doubt. However, the business model is a bit of a mess. Once I went in, selected several cupcakes, and got back to discover they were all the wrong ones. My bad I guess, maybe I didn't watch them closely enough? Then my office ordered some for a birthday, and they showed up a day early with a very frazzled delivery person. Ok, maybe just an off day. Their website says you can only pre-order the same variety and we wanted a variety, so tried to go this morning at 8:30 (they say they're open at 7:00). The door was locked and had to knock on the window to get let in, and was told that the cupcakes in the case couldn't be sold because they were old (ok, good quality control) and nothing would be ready until 10:00. Please pull it together. Your cupcakes are so good, but your business model is a mess. Either take orders only, change your hours, or figure something else out. Want to support you, but I'm frustrated.

Livvy Walker

Im not really sure what all the rage is about here. Ive never had such bland vanilla cake in all my life. The whole thing tasted like it was straight out of a grocery store and the frosting (both the flavor and consistency) seemed like it had large quantities of shortening in it. As a baker, I can be a slight harsh judge on these. I know my way around a Swiss meringue buttercream, and this is not a good example of one. However, their chocolate cake did sway my opinions at least a little. They were more decadent and dense versus the vanilla with too stiff and heavy a frosting to pair with such a (grocery-store-esque) light and airy cake. Would maybe go back for their chocolate cake. But in all likelihood, a better one could be made at home.

Johnny Coster

Good selection but pretty pricey and the frosting wasn't sweet enough for me.

Jennifer Nanyes

Unique flavors and beautifully created cupcakes. Oftentimes I find that fancy cupcakes shops sell pretty cupcakes but the cake is dry or not so fresh, but these taste moist and fresh. Cute "hole in the wall" location.

Stephen Young

Honestly I would shop around before having to rely on Mermaids Bakery. From the moment I walked into the store I felt like I was second-rate to them. I was getting a birthday cake planned but it didn't sound like they were really interested in helping. I let them know the kind of cake I would like and started talking about decoration ideas and inspiration. They flat out told me they couldn't do it, they could instead print an edible image but it would have to be on white icing, which was disappointing but sounded okay. I informed them I would send an image they can use later that day, and I did, it was a rectangular image (this is important for later.) Mermaid's Bakery usually asks 24hrs on weekdays, 48hrs for weekend orders. I ordered Tuesday morning and would pick up on Saturday so this gave them ample time to prepare and contact me with any issues or let me know if what I wanted isn't working. When I show up on Saturday there's just one employee who doesn't look like they're gonna be able to fix a cake if something goes wrong. They present the cake and there's all of this superfluous decoration on the top I didn't ask for and my image just plopped on the top. It doesn't fit because of the decorations, it doesn't look like it belongs on the cake, and it isn't blended at all. Look, I get it if there's a rectangular image on a circular cake but honestly.... I stood there staring at this cake wondering what I did wrong to have gotten such a lackluster result and the employee asks if anything is wrong, I instinctively say "No, this is fine." Because I'm stuck with this cake, they can't fix it and I can't exactly refuse it, I needed it for that day in the next few hours. This was the most embarrassing $57 I've ever spent and now I'm going to present a birthday cake that looks like I didn't care about this person. Mermaid's Bakery has a gallery on their website and an Instagram page that presents so many wonderfully crafted desserts with a tone of voice from someone who sounded like they loved making desserts, and loved making other people's day. This was so sobering and upsetting. Update: most Neapolitan (misspelled on their website as Neopolitan) cakes have three layers: chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla. This cake I received only had two, now checking the website this is apparently how they make their Neapolitan cakes - omitting the vanilla layer of cake.

Mike Barlow

Not sure why they have a rating of 3.8. I got 6 different cupcakes and shared them. All the cupcakes were awesome.

matt hartmeier

Apparently they don't check their email often. I had a custom order sitting in their inbox well within the 48-hr window of when I needed it delivered. Called them today to check on the order and... nothing. I asked them to waive the delivery fee since they were already going to deliver something there later today anyways, and they said no. Let's just hope their product is good, or I will drop this down to 1 star.

Michael Aletheuo

Whet to see the parade today, stopped by to end the on a sweet note (Superbowl champs) but it did not happen, we had 4 cupcakes and all 4 were terrible no taste and the frosting taste like Crisco, not fresh at all. do your self a favor and skip this one.

Michael Stanton

Delicious cake and cupcakes. We ordered about 10 dozen cupcakes with varying flavors die our wedding and they were a huge hit. We even got some gluten free! We also got our wedding cake there and it was just as amazing.

Kristy Jo

It has been an absolute pleasure doing business with Diane. Mermaid Bakery was the ONLY specialty bakery in Denver that would make a custom cake for me with 4 days notice! Completely professional and willing to make the cake to our specifications while throwing a beautiful spin on it. I would recommend this bakery to anyone!!!! Thank you again to Mermaid Bakery for their hard work and kindness!!!!!!

Brittany Alonzo

Lee Deskins

Very good cupcakes. I got the German Chocolate one which the person at the counter indicated was her favorite but it looks like a "hot mess" . It was very good.

Smithereens Toni

I ordered a chocolate chip cookie cake for an engagement party for about 15 people. Everyone loved it, it was truly delicious. I will certainly use Bake again for other events! I can't wait to try some of their other cakes.

Steve Perry

They say they have gluten free options, but were sold out by early afternoon. If gluten free is that popular, I would make more so you don't sell out. If you only offer gluten free on speciality orders, say so on your website. Didn't buy or try anything here. Left disappointed.

Andrea Palmer

I had to order some cupcakes last minute and Mermaids Bakery did a fantastic job of getting the cupcakes delivered. They even got them there earlier than promised! The frosting wasn't too sugary it was just the right amount for the cupcake and they were a HUGE hit, everyone wanted to take extra home. I will definitely use them again.

Stephanie Russell

AMAZING CUPCAKES.

Kristen Harrington

Amazing and delicious cupcakes. Some of the best I have had. I love the frosting since it is real buttercream (not overly sweet, but just sweet enough) and the cake is dense and yummy, especially the filled ones!

nicole prochazka

These cupcakes are so pretty... But the vanilla smbc was so bland. I'm know it doesn't contain crisco but that's what it tasted like, whipped crisco. So disappointed.

Shauna

Yummmmmmmmy cupcakes!!!

Alison Shamus

We have been using this bakery for years and would recommend them. The fresh cream cakes are excellent and we are always asked where we get them from. They also have cakes available on the day if you have any last minute needs!

Elyse Himmelstein

I have no idea what these bad reviews are for.... Mermaid's Bakery is absolutely amazing! Especially for Gluten Free goodies! I have ordered many cupcakes and cakes throughout the years from Mermaid's and they have all turned out wonderfully! No complaints at all; their customer service is absolutely fantastic and all of their flavors are so delicious. The frosting is always scrumptious as well. My personal favorite is Salted Caramel.

Rheann Zielinski

Arrived mid day to an empty case and very few options to purchase a selection of cupcakes They only had chocolate and vanilla variations which looked pretty but the flavor was a bit lacking. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Stephanie Pagel

Best Cupcakes in Denver. Get there early!

Amy Ryals

So I went here for cupcakes, some gluten free, some regular. They looked like I made them myself. They tasted horrible. Actually had very little flavor at all. Guests thought icing tasted like crisco. I was so unimpressed I nearly cried at my son's birthday party when one of the moms asked how I had time to make the cupcakes. Very unimpressed for my $69 dollars worth of cupcakes (2 dozen). Walmart does a better job decorating and I could have had the glutten free made by someone closer to home at least. Will not ever go back.

The churro cupcake was amazing hands down.

Almost out of flavors. I’m a dessert person and these cupcakes are not addiction types, that’s all I can say. They are ok..

We had the black and white and thr wedding day cupcakes. They were thr most moist cupcakes we've ever had. Icing was good and not so sweet.

I ordered a gluten free cake for my wedding, due to my husband having celiac disease, the day before the wediing my husband went to pick up our cake, as he was driving home I was called by the bakery and they told me the cake was all GLUTEN, they told me they would fix it which I was very happy with and they delieverd my cake with no charge, but the cake was all wrong it was non fondant which was originally ordered and every layer was not what we ordered I was disappointed in that end of it. The cake was buttercream icing and every layer was not what we orderd

My company has ordered cupcakes and cakes from other bakeries but mermaids is by far the best we have ordered from. Their customer service is excellent and the baked good are full of flavor and always fresh. I love that they are willing to deliver to me as well. Good Job Mermaids!!!

Mermaids bakery made our wedding cake, and it was gorgeous! But the sad part is the cake itself was absolutely gross, no flavor, dry....nobody ate it! They are wonderful and decorating and making the cake just how you want it, they just need to figure out something with their cake recipes. Otherwise, this would have been a really good place to get a cake/cupcakes!

Although a good selection of gluten free cupcakes, was not impressed by the chocolate with swiss meringue frosting. Cupcake seemed to lack chocolate flavor, not rich at all. Didn't finish it even =/

Tasteless and heavy not worth the price!
