Handcrafted cupcakes, pour-over coffee, and a corner that feels like home. We don't just bake — we make your day a little sweeter.
Cupcake and a Smile started with one simple belief: the best moments in life come with a fork in one hand and a reason to laugh in the other. We opened our doors in Richmond with nothing but a stand mixer, a recipe notebook full of scribbles, and the hope that someone would walk in and feel a little lighter.
Today, every cupcake is still mixed by hand, every batch is baked on-site, and every customer is treated like they just walked into a friend's kitchen. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or staying for the whole afternoon, we're glad you're here.
Pop in anytime — the oven's always running and the coffee's always fresh. Whether it's a Tuesday morning or a Saturday evening, there's a seat with your name on it.
Drop us a line and we'll get back to you as soon as we finish this batch (that's about 10 minutes). Custom cakes, event inquiries, or just want to say hi — we read every message.
