“ Oh so chocolate. Oh so expensive, but oh so chocolate. The local Korean establishment did not offer dessert, and my cousin and I were both visiting the city so dessert became a requirement (okay, not necessarily, but you know) and Sweet Box was nearby. Since she treated me to dinner I treated her to dessert, which means I wasn't too focused on the prices of everything. I will say that two cupcakes, a brownie, and a banana pudding added up to nearly $30, so you have your advance warning. Relatively less star-punishment given to that high price for two reasons: 1. Center city. Stuff is always more expensive in cities. 2. Yum. The cupcakes were just the right consistency, and super duper chocolatey. We both got the cookie dough cupcakes with a generous glob of dough on top and some buttercreamy frosting. Those were downed right away. I brought home my brownie... again, chocolate cookie dough because, come on, you know. Now that I have had that, I can vouch it is also super chocolatey, dense, delicious, just the right flavor and consistency. Devoured the entire gigantic block. 5 stars at any price. Service was quick and friendly, though we were the only ones in there. Very limited waiting room - tiny store, you basically walk in and order and walk out. I'm surprised we didn't run into a line of people at 6:30 PM on a Saturday, but the weather may have helped. This place deserves a line out the door for their quality. Bring your dough and eat some dough! ”
“ Found this place doing a yelp search as I was in Philly for an overnight and wanted to scope out a new bakery to try. After checking out their website and menu, I decided to give them a try. I'm not familiar with navigating through Philly, but it does see located in a busy part of center city. Luckily, I was able to grab a close spot :). The shop is small and definitely gives boutique flair. I purchased the strawberry pop tart cupcake and a chocolate chip cookie. Both were great! The cupcake was super sweet, the cookie was soft and had great flavor. Would visit again! ”
“ Cute bakery in center city. There is usually a spot at the corner to run in quickly. Can't say much about the service since it's very transactional, but the cupcakes are good. I usually grab cupcakes from here when a co worker has a birthday coming up. They haven't disappointed yet! ”
“ I did not even eat the cupcakes at Sweet Box Cupcakes and now I feel...foolish. However, I did try nearly everything else! Bring on the 5 star chocolate chip cookie (cakie, flakey salts, ribbons of chocolate), edible frozen cookie dough (goodbye my lover goodbye my friend I ate you for basically every meal across two days) and the amazing dirty jawn which is a brookie oreo creation (that I initially said I'd "freeze for later" but ended up eating much of...then ultimately throwing away because I feared it's power over me...you win this time, Dirty Jawn). Okay so now that that's out of the way, service here is amazing and I honestly didn't think prices were that bad, though I may be in the minority. The dough was only like $6 and you can't find that price in a grocery store so...support local for your edible raw dough needs. The service and vibes here are both excellent and it's hard to imagine going anywhere else for a sweet treat. Excited to grab treats for visitors and stop by anytime I find myself on that side of Broad. ”
“ The best cupcakes in the city! The cake is moist, fresh and flavorful and the frosting is the perfect sweetness. Highly recommend the black and white milkshake -- it's a true treat! I'm a cupcake connoisseur and this is at the top of my list in any city. ”
“ Following our destination wedding we planned an East Coast celebration and were looking for a recreation of our cake. I reached out to Sweet Box and asked them if they could make something similar which they were able to do! Cake was tasty and very cute. Wonderful communication during the ordering process. Ended up grabbing a festive Phillies Phanatic cupcake when I was there picking up my order which did not disappoint! ”
“ They are a local bakery with great cupcakes but also good bars and cookies. They seem to live raw cookie dough which isn't my fave but it's good. You may even be able to snag some hot fresh baked coolies ”
“ Only bakery i buy cupcakes from. Favorites include the birthday cake, vanilla vanilla, strawberry shortcake and cake batter. Their jawns are also out of this world. Highly recommend eating them at room temperature and not out of the fridge. A delightful place that needs to kindly multiply. ”
“ The name Sweet Box is so fitting! The store really does feel like an enlarged box of treats. I grabbed a strawberry Halloween cupcake (of what, I don't know) and I was really impressed that the strawberry didn't taste artificial. Overall, I wasn't blown away, but I will definitely return and have high hopes I will enjoy another flavor more! ”
