Dietary & Allergen Information
Do you offer gluten-free cupcakes?
Yes! We currently offer vanilla gluten-free cupcakes. At this time, vanilla is our only gluten-free cupcake option.
Do you offer dairy-free or eggless cupcakes?
At this time, we are not a dairy-free or egg-free/eggless bakery.
Are your products peanut-free?
No. We are not a peanut-free bakery because we offer peanut butter cupcakes. We take care to sanitize and separate the utensils and equipment used for our peanut butter cupcakes from those used for other products. However, because our products are prepared in the same bakery, we cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment. If you have a severe food allergy, please use your discretion before ordering.
Cupcake Care
How should I store my cupcakes?
Cupcakes can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3+ days. For the best taste and texture, we recommend allowing refrigerated cupcakes to come closer to room temperature before enjoying.
What’s the best way to enjoy a Cee Cee’s Palace Cupcake?
We LOVE popping our Palace Cupcakes in the microwave! 👑🧁 Especially our cheesecake and S’mores cupcakes. A few seconds of warming makes the cake soft and warm while the filling gets deliciously gooey. Warm your cupcake for a few seconds at a time until it reaches your preferred temperature, then enjoy your Palace Cupcake experience!
Checkout & Order Information
Why is there an additional fee at checkout?
The additional fee at checkout is a payment processing fee associated with securely processing your order.
Can someone else pick up my order?
Yes! Someone else can pick up your order on your behalf. We recommend providing them with the name the order was placed under so our team can locate it quickly.
Can I change or cancel my order?
If you need to make a change to your order, please contact us as soon as possible. We’ll do our best to accommodate requests, but changes or cancellations may not be possible once your order has entered preparation.
How far in advance should I place a custom order?
Because custom orders require additional preparation and planning, we recommend submitting your request as early as possible, especially for large orders, events, catering, and specialty treats. This gives our team time to confirm availability, finalize your order details, and provide accurate pricing.
