James And The Giant Cupcake

Fantastic cupcakes, charming shops, and friendly staff! Plus, they always offer gluten-free options. It doesn't get much better than that!

This place is like CRACK!!!!!! You cannot get enough of these delights!!!!! Awesome that vegan is so available!!!! Thank you for sharing your gift!!!!!

Good cupcakes! But don't be confused and order the small one they are only about 2 bites. A bit pricey but delish! Everyone will want at least 2 so go for the bigger size! View menu

I LOVE JAMES AND THE GIANT CUPCAKE! Definitely the only gluten free vegan cupcakes my non food allergy friends love too! We even got them for our engagement photo shoot! Can't wait for them to make my wedding cake!

These cupcakes don't disappoint!! F they are good and moist, chocolate heaven. Ahhh so many good vegan and gluten free options in downtown now. It's a blessing and curse to be walking distance from this place. I want to celebrate everything with a cupcake!

Absolutely the best! James and the Giant Cupcake created a stunning cupcake tower for our wedding. Not only were the cupcakes DELICIOUS (and they were vegan and gluten-free!), but we also received so many compliments from friends asking where we got them and how they could get some for themselves. The team was a pleasure to work with and arranged everything beautifully on-site. I highly recommend them for weddings! I’ll definitely be returning just for the cupcakes. Thank you so much!

Found this cute gem with a friend at lunch last week. He wanted to get cupcakes for some on his team's bday. They have a nice selection of unique styles and flavors. They even have a 50% section at the bottom for day old cupcakes. They said red velvet and chocolate are their best sellers. I loved the red velvet with cream cheese! My friend V loved the chocolate. We even went back the next day to get a mix for us and and a few coworkers/friends in the bldg. (the smaller pic with 6 minis . I saved my favorite cupcake w/the light green frosting chocolate on top for someone special who works nearby tho. They liked it.

James and the Giant Cupcake is a great name for a little bakery on 17th Street in Oakland. I go there once a year for my Daughter's birthday. she eats strictly vegan so I go there to order her specially made vegan cupcakes in all different flavors and a dozen of the Mini cupcakes for the rest of the family. There is one thing you should know and that is they are a little pricey. I paid $28.00 for a dozen mini cupcakes. A regular sized cupcake is $3.50 each but worth every penny. You can order a large cupcake that is specially designed for a Birthday, Mother's day, Valentine's day, Graduation and more that will cost you $7.50. It's a little more than I would like to pay but, they decorate it...

Delicious cupcakes in downtown Oakland! I'm so glad they’re here. The cupcakes are wonderfully moist and packed with flavor. My personal favorite is the lemon-flavored one. They also offer mini versions for a smaller treat. I bought one during my last visit and saved it until the next day, and it was just as tasty! They sell day-old cupcakes at half price, which is a great deal. Four full-sized cupcakes cost around $19.00, and everything is neatly wrapped. There are two outdoor tables if you want to enjoy your treat right away. On our visit today, they had various flavors including banana, Smurf (blueberry), cookies and cream, and chocolate, among others. I appreciate that they offer differe... View menu
