Cutesy Cupcakes

Gourmet cupcakes and gelato, made in-house

Cutesy Cupcakes was born in 2011 when Janeen, Jeanette and Lacey (mother, daughter and granddaughter) transformed their love of sweets into a creative, family-centered business with two locations-one in Scotts Valley and one in San Jose, Ca. The idea of a cupcake shop evolved when Jeanette and Lacey attend the Culinary Program at Cabrillo College under the direction of Anne Baldzikowski, and then when Lacey surprised everyone with a large, colorful cupcake tattoo on her foot, it seemed meant to be! The business started at home with baking done in a toaster oven. Cupcake tins had to be sawed in half to fit into the tiny oven. In the next phase, they baked at a commercial kitchen and took internet orders. Finally in December 2012, they opened their first shop near Safeway in Scotts Valley and in 2017 they opened their second store at the corner of Prospect and Saratoga in San Jose.
