Tried the vegan cupcake from here after reading the raving reviews. I really loved the cupcake, it was really tasty and super soft and moist. The frosting was delicious and wasn't too sweet that you can't finish the whole thing (have had many like experiences like that). The one thing that I found was a minus point was that the frosting was a bit dense, would have liked it more if it was bit more fluffy.
Outstanding customer service, super tasty cupcakes that arrived in perfect condition and were perfect the next day when we served them up! Highly recommend
I don't have much of a sweet tooth but every time i'm craving something sweet, Petal Cupcakes are number 1 on my list. I can safely say that the cupcakes here are the best i've ever had. Cannot go past the vanilla or chocolate hazelnut cupcakes!
Perfect cupcakes the best ever. Cake is soft and tasty, you can taste each flavour. Icing is awesome, the combination of the 2 working together perfectly. 5 stars hands down. Pricey but worth it.
These cupcakes are some of the best I've had! The cake is really soft and icing is nice and creamy without being too sweet. The variety in taste is also amazing. Little but pricey but worth it. Can't wait to go again!
A place I go whenever I crave cupcakes. The icing is delicate and the cake is light. There are no seats (only takeaway), so it is best to buy a few and enjoy it with a breakfast tea at home.
A lovely tiny cupcake shop in new market - been here few times and tried several different cupcakes and all were amazing! the icing blends really well and smooth and yummy ; they didnt even harden when you leave it overnight! The red velvet with cream cheese icing is a must try 👌🏻
Freaking amazing cupcakery goodness. Beautiful, exquisite and fresh. I miss this place with all my heart. Omg yum. No joke go buy yourself a fancy wee cake.
First time I had brought these cupcakes I’d gone wild grabbing 2 dozens. Can’t tell you how much I fell in love with these cupcakes the minute id tasted them I have to say the raspberry was my favourite. Moist, full of flavour this is my go to cupcake place. Love it
My workplace use these guys quite a lot. I've bought many-a-cupcake here for myself as well as gifts for the very few people I actually give a sh*t about. I can honestly say their buttercream icing is by far the best I've had, they've got it down to an art. I find myself scraping most of the icing off other cupcakes, not with Petals though....it's super light & fluffy & beautifully presented. The service is amazing, the girl that works the counter is always friendly & incredibly efficient at her job.
The red velvet cupcake here is spectacular 👌👌. Not only does this taste good but the packaging is great especially for gifting. Staff was quite nice to recommend us some flavours too.
The staff girl is super friendly!!! I had peach and salted caramel flavours, which both are delicious and very moist! Just a bit too sweet for me and hope they can have sugar substitute ones that would be perfect:)
The icing is absolutely delicious. The cake itself is nice. However the price is quite high for one single cupcake. Nice to indulge but not an everyday thing
Always delicious cupcakes here! Usually I don’t like all the thick icing that is put on cupcakes but petal ones are an exception! The balance of icing to cupcake is perfect. One of my favourite flavours is strawberry!
Petal cupcakes Newmarket is my favourite place for cupcakes. Its so moist and so delicious. Excellent customer service and lovely wee store. Keep it up guys..i will give you ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👌👌👌
So pretty and yummy! Perfect as a gift for any occasion. My favourite flavours are black doris plum and mango :) from instagram user @clover_s2
Always so good! Love the range of flavours, all so delicious! Perfect for a gift or a shared lunch! Newmarket staff always really friendly too
Excellent quality of goodness and variety of flavours!!! Our yearly birthday shop for our sweet tooth. Must try and love there random competitions

My friend got me a 6-pack of these for my birthday and I have got to say they were amazing, light, goregous little flavour bombs! My favorite was the Espresso flavour - just enough of that beautiful coffee flavour. Would highly recommend!
Petal cupcakes are a total game changer! No other cupcake is even comparable!! Perfect ratio of icing to cake. Not only do they look amazing but they taste amazing too. The gluten free and vegan cupcakes are also yummy which you wouldn’t usually expect with gluten free! A huge variety of flavours to suit everyone’s individual taste preferences too. YOU CANT GO WRONG WITH PETAL CUPCAKES
Best cupcakes iv ever had, not sickly sweet and the cupcake is super moist and fluffy with just the right amount of frosting on top. Comes in a cute little package too ☺️
Love these cupcakes, the flavours are so yummy and they all look so pretty it’s hard to choose. Great treats for special occasions and they make lovely gifts. Highly recommend.
Petal has the most AMAZING cupcakes! The flavors are tantalizing with melt in your mouth buttercream and a moist cupcake base. Absolutely delicious
A special treat, always very friendly service and the cupcakes are to die for. My fave is the Lavender and Honey one... I've only tried two flavours so far because I always get the same one it's just so good. Make for lovely gifts because of the boxes too.
Love the cupcakes from here, even the mini ones. they have so many different flavours too and they look so pretty too #flowerpower
Not too sweet either :)
Best cupcake in town! I love their Mango cup cake. It it my favorite plus I love that they have gluten and vegetarian options too. They also have cute packaging!
I know $5 a cupcake sounds absolutely ridic, but the aesthetics and taste of the cupcakes is also ridic so the occasional treat is so worth it!! Bc of the price I don’t get em as often as I’d like😂
They have so many different flavours in store and all of them are so so great, with GF and Vegan options if I recall correctly — the icing is addictive and the actual cupcake itself is light and fluffy and it all just melts in the mouth😭
Love love love
Can definitely recommend petal cupcakes as a go to for a sweet treat for events of just for a treat!! Always order through petal and they were such a hit for our engagement 😍😋
My favorite cupcake shop in Auckland! They are so moist, very tasty, and not too sweet. They have so many flavours to choose from, but I recommend the chocolate hazelnut and salted caramel.
I got x3 4 packs of cupcakes for my bridesmaids and they were so bloody cute! And they made vegan ones for one of the girls which was amazing . Super cool little shop to pick up a treat too!
Best cupcakes I’ve ever had! Always such creative flavours but the classic vanilla bean is a favourite for me!! Also love the packaging and aesthetic of the cupcakes and the cakes.
I loooovvveeee Petal cupcakes, I’m guilty of coming here sometimes more that once a week hehe! They always taste delish and the girls there are lovely ☺️
Beautifully delicious cupcakes that were a surprised birthday treat last year..hoping again for this year :) . Comes in a handy, styling and environmentally friendly cardboard box. A great gift or 'bring a plate' dish at any event...a sure crowd pleaser!
Love them! We just got 6 of your cupcakes as a treat, and they are amazing. Light and fluffy and the icing is to die for. Totally worth the price and the trip.
Perfect pick me up with their super cute carrier. The only issue is which cupcakes to choose as the bright colours and variety of flavours are all delicious and visually appealing. These are so moist and all the icings taste different (so it's not just the colour that different).
Cute petal cupcakes and taste really good as well (not too sweet)! They have nice packaging perfect for a gift. Staff are really nice and helpful.
Pretty petal cupcakes are a perfect gift for any occasion! They come in mini, standard or in full sized cakes and I’ve been lucky enough to receive one for my birthday!
Comes in an assortment of flavours!
Oh i love this place. I didnt know what to choose. Staff explained me n helped me to choose:) so kind:) was really yum not that sweet :) i want to try other flavors as well
The cupcakes were quite nice, a lil dry to my liking and a lil pricey but they were good. Good that they had a few samples available which helped me with the choices. The ones in the pics are.. Lemon, Salted Caramel, chocolate Hazelnut and Red Valvet. Salted caramel could've been better but the other 3 were nice.
Could never get enough of these cupcakes! With such a wide range of flavours they always seem to satisfy my sweet tooth despite my different flavour cravings each time. They definitely don't disappoint and they're also so beautifully made they also make a perfect gift idea!

Some of the best cupcakes I have ever tried. I love the generous amount of icing on these cupcakes, and the wide and ever changing menu of flavours. They are a great treat for special occasions, to share with friends, or as a gift due to the pretty packaging they come in. My favourites are the raspberry and ripe strawberry cupcakes.
Really love the Newmarket Petal Cupcake store. These cupcakes are my favourite . They are light, rich and moreish. Best served with a cuppa and a friend. The 4 pack is a great gift to bring to friends or treat ourselves. Chocolate is the best.

Amazing cup cakes and the service is second to none. I have ordered cup cakes for same day delivery and they were perfect. The shop in Newmarket is always staffed with great happy people who offer advice. Really impressed by this place. I highly recommend you check them out. Huge plus is that they do vegan cakes too so perfect for everyone. x
I have tried cupcakes at petaluugy
I am always a can of petal cupcakes. They are so yum. Love plum flavour and hawkes bay peach ❤️
My kids and husband loves it too! Great taste

I love petal cupcakes! love popping in for a cheeky cupcake. so good for gifts and surprises! my bridesmaid sent me a cupcake bouquet on our anniversary. such a cute concept and super tasty!
Such a lovely little item to send as a gift or purchase as a sweet treat for yourself. Colourful and tasty, petal cupcakes look great and taste even better! I’ve had them at the office for functions too. Highly recommended!
This is the best ever place for your sweet treats! The most delicious and cute cupcakes ever! Always cooked perfectly 😍 personal favourites are salted caramel and raspberry ones, can be be a cute lil gift to someone too 😊
Great service, awesome location, great customer service from the team and the cupcakes are always spot on! And always deliver on time on same day services!
I have always had a good experience when popping in for a treat over the years. The cupcakes are really tasty - the cake is not too sweet and there is that big swirl of yummy icing on the top. Have bought a top cake before when they used to be $35 and loved it. Not something you can really have on the regular as $5 a pop for a cupcake and $40 for the top cake is a little bit pricey. But all in all definitely recommend👍🏽
I go to petal cupcakes all the time! They are made so well and they taste amazing!! They have the best flavours!! I like double chocolate or chocolate raspberry the best! Would recommend they are the best!!
I am one of the pickiest cupcake eaters only because I absolutely love cupcakes! I moved from Melbourne, Australia to find me a new cupcake Home and petals Newmarket surely delivered! If you’re looking for a new cupcake Home, this is the place to go.
This is my go to for birthday gifts. I love that they are reliable & deliver within the time frame that we wish to send along with the best flavoured cupcakes with the option of vegan and gluten free. Definitely have to try their hazelnut flavour ❤️

These are the best cupcakes. Every mouthful is so flavoursome and delicious. The staff are friendly and price is value for money. You can never go wrong with petal cupcakes.
Finger licking goood cupcakes 😍😍 finally tried petal cupcakes after hearing about this place for a few years. I got the tropical mango one and it was the best thing ever! So much flavour in the icing, and the cupcake itself was super soft.
They also sell gluten free and vegan cupcakes, but unfortunately there wasn't a huge range of flavours to choose from those sections.
Can't wait to try out more flavours from here!!
P.s wish the size of the cupcakes were a bit bigger 🙊
Bought this as a gift. Even though it was a little pricey, the taste of each cupcake is delicious (the main flavor comes from the icings they use). I chose Vanilla, Lavender and Honey, Ripe Strawberry, and Red Velvet. The red velvet tasted pretty good and stood out amongst the 4. The cupcakes were presented very delicately. Each had a balance of sweetness and their own distinct taste which doesn't make you sick after eating a few. Would definitely recommend. This box of 4 costed $20.

I was so excited when my mum bought me a set of cupcakes from petal. They were really pretty and the vanilla cupcakes were really yum however chocolate ones were a bit dense which is a shame.
The best cupcakes in town! Every flavour tastes like magic - highly recommend the red velvet and salted caramel! Friendly staff and fresh cupcakes - can’t go wrong ☺️
One of my favourite cupcake places of all time. The cupcakes are always piped beautifully in the classic rose style. There are many icing flavours to choose from. I have friends who think the icing is a bit too sweet but I find it perfect. The staff is always friendly and at $5 a cupcake it’s not too unreasonable. If you buy more it gets cheaper.
Some of the best cupcakes in town. It's a nice stylish takeaway with your usual service standard. The cupcakes are always consistent with a good range of flavours, even up until closing time. These are always a crowd pleaser, I never get anything less than a 6 pack here. They're just a tad on the pricey side but in saying that, they haven't put their prices up with the butter boom so that's great.
The customer service was great. You have go off Broadway to get there. They have a good range of cupcakes. You can try different flavours from fruits to unique flavours.
One of the original cupcake stores. Have all the usual flavours & a few unique ones too. They are nice, but all look the same (just different flavours) so not as pretty as some other stores do. Taste is consistently good
My friend and i visit most weeks and order a cupcake or 2 each. It is worth the drive from Penrose to New Market. Would love if they sold mini cupcakes individually though- there pricing is a little funny as most places will have a cheaper price for more cupcakes but petal still charge the same amount per cupcake whether you’re buying 1 or 12 which isn’t a good thing for those that want more than 1
Adorable little cupcakes! Good range of flavours too. All though it is not that different from other cupcakeries, the simplicity and consistent theme between the cupcakes makes it more unique.
Hole in the wall cupcake offering... very helpful staff, great range of flavours, very tasty, attractive appearance, reasonable price, and reliable takeaway packaging if you're making a house call. I very much recommend!
Wow! Tastes and look heavenly delicious! Located at a nice and chic outlet in Newmarket and friendly staff. Lots of flavors to choose from. They sell regular and mini cupcakes. The regular cupcake is quite a big size. It tastes divine and moist but the icing is a bit sweet for my liking. But they are lovely.... so I would still come back!
Absolutely delicious. The cake texture is really nice and soft and not powdery or soggy and it doesn't make your tongue feel funny and the flavour is subtly sweet yet so rich. The icing is also really rich and sometimes it gets a little too overly sweet but if you eat it together with the cake then it's perfect. The icing texture is also perfect. My favourite is the coffee flavour. The presentation - icing, box and all - is also really well done. It's a tad expensive but I would recommend trying it at least once, and perhaps again occasionally as a little treat.
Soooo good !
Worh trying even though you're not a big fan of cupcakes!!
The icing melts in your mouth and the sponge was so soft.You get to choose your cupcakes from varieties of options and you'll definitely find your favorite !
Such delicious cupcakes, that always taste moist and fresh. I especially love how the gluten free cupcakes have the same taste as the normal cupcakes, and aren't dry like some gluten free alternatives. All the flavours are amazing, but I'd say the salted caramel is a must when visiting Petal!
Very good service and extremely good cupcakes. The Shop is small but very welcoming it has around 10 flavours that I think anyone can enjoy, there is also different genres of flavours that different age groups will love.
Beautiful cupcakes, sometimes the icing is a bit overpowering, I think the balance of cupcake to icing needs a bit of work in particular the really sweet cupcakes.
Usually stop by here when I'm in the area to get a sweet fix. The cupcakes are just delicious and a nice treat. Although it is quite a small shop the display usually has a variety of different flavours to choose from. The cupcakes are around $5 per piece.
I would definitely recommend all Cupcake Lovers to try this place, They sell a nice combination of flavors and their design and frosting makes them stand out in Auckland.
I don't have a sweet tooth so I found the frosting very sweet but the good side was the flavors were amazing, If I ignore the sweetness I have to admit their frosting is rich and nicely blended.
My cake was very yumm, I tried the Tropical Mango cupcake which had a nice subtle banana flavored cake and Mango-Orange frosting on top.
Treated myself to a tiny petal cupcake lol
Decided to turn it into a small tea party for myself.
I love Petal Cupcakes. The cupcakes are always moist and the frosting is always so flavourful.
Most frosting a just taste like a whole lot of sugar making it very unpalatable but Petal frosting is sooooooo good.
Petal cupcake provide various flavour-frosting cupcake. If you are searching for something sooo sweet, u can try their cupcake. Seriously u have to try 1pc of cupcake first before try to buy a pack of cupcakes.
They have glutten free cupcake. The cupcake itself very delicous, we had the banana flavoured cuocake with different type of frostings (vanilla bean, lavendar honey, choc raspberry, and salted caramel).
However, we ended eat one cupcake with small amount of frosting. Because its to sweet for us, for our child. And we save the other cupcakes for the next morning, the cupcake itself still good, not fudgy or wateve.
I adore the cupcakes at Petal Boutique! Such a simple yet creative idea. The packaging is so special, with all cupcakes given to you in a little box which when you open up, resembles a petal shape.
There are lots of different flavours to choose from, a few of my favourites are the balsamic strawberry, mango and salted caramel. The base of the cupcake is always moist and kept simple (vanilla or chocolate base) and the flavour comes from the icing on top which is delicious.
They also do top cakes which are so gorgeous and perfect as a birthday cake or for special occasions. Definitely a must try when you are in the area, for a little treat.
For $5 a cupcake you'd expect it to be good, and it is. The cake is moist and the icing is creamy, but the cupcake is too subtle in flavour. I brought the red velvet cupcake and it lacked the traditional cream cheese flavour you expect from a good red velvet cake.
Hands down, the best cupcakes you'll ever try. They are decadent but not sickly sweet, always fresh and rather addictive. I love them so much, we had Petal cupcakes with a cake topper for our wedding cake. I can't visit Newmarket with most stopping in to grab a cupcake. Love the GF options too!
2nd best cupcakes in Auckland; it's worth $5 per cupcake, quality and super tasty nom noms. They suit my pallette as they have very good balance, smooth soft texture; and it's no overly sweet.
Petals were the original cupcake. They have stayed consistent and not down sized or compromised on quality now they have a comfortable and reputable place in the market. Have ordered them as gifts to be delivered a few times and always had great service and no problems. They are always moist and fluffy with smooth creamy icing. Today's wee treat was a delish salted caramel. I also noticed they had a good variety of gluten free flavours kept apart from the rest
Yummy cupcakes - my favourite is the golden syrup cupcake. They are quite pricey for their size, but always great tasting and fresh. So happy to regularly purchase and devour 😏
Iv stopped here a few times for a sneaky cup cake. And my gosh...yum I have to try avoid parking in the area to stop
My self going in cause it's dangerous. I recommend theese babies. But be warned once youv tried you won't stop.

I got the heilala vanilla and the cupcake is moist and fluffy. The rich creamy icing isn't overwhelmingly sweet with and it has a hint of cream cheese which gives it more texture.
If you're feeling like a sweet treat and around in new market give this place a go!
It literally only sells cupcakes
I wouldn't say it's pricey but it's definitely not cheap
I believe they also do cakes in a cupcake fashion- very cute and pretty
There are many flavours to choose from but one of my favourite is the chocolate and red velvet
Icing was too sweet for me but the cake bit was moist and delicious!.when I have a cupcake craving I'll sure be back :)
I can't quite make up my mind with Petal. I have tried various flavors and so far the hit-&-miss ratio has been 50/50. This is due to the cupcake icing being too sweet or the flavor is a bit too artificial/strong.
Today my sister tried the Raspberry cupcake which was surprisingly delicious! In my sisters words " It reminds me of Berry ripple ice cream".
Good treat with a cup of tea once in a while!
Love the variety and the fact you can order online! However the cupcakes are a little pricy. Would recommend the fruity ones and espresso ones.
Heard all sorts of good stuff about this place. Finally got a chance to visit this little store.
I went for the 4 cupcakes option. Think it was like $18(?). Bit pricey for cupcakes but they were honestly so good! 💯
The cake itself was SO soft and moist(...). The icing on top was so nice. Although it did get a bit too sweet after a few bites. So kinda glad I got 4 instead of 6. And they are still nice and soft a few days after too -bonus!
Love this place. Would definitely come back to treat myself or for an occasion 😋
Really cute cupcakes here! Depending on what floats your boat they most likely will have a cupcake flavour that will satisfy your sweet tooth ☺️
I've had many cupcakes from Petal, from the shop itself or at parties where Petal has catered cupcakes too and there's always good remarks about the cupcakes!
Today I had the Ginger Kiss and Mango Tango cupcake. I much prefer the fruitier flavours on offer. The icing is beautifully creamy and full of flavour and goes very well with the actual cup cake.
I don't have much of a sweet tooth, but I'll be very glad to see Petal cupcakes at the next event or if I want a cupcake, I know where to go!!
This place is very cute and pretty. I have tried multiple flavours in the past and have enjoyed them all. I do agree others who think $5 is a bit too steep for one cup cake.
Little fact, Starbucks at 277 also sell these cup cakes so definitely grab one with a cup of coffee!
I love this place! Everything about it is right up my alley, cute and pretty and just very very nice aesthetically, both shop and cupcakes. I tried the red velvet cupcake and I thought it tasted amazing! It is a bit pricey but well worth it in my opinion :)
I bought red velvet and espresso flavours. Those were good but a little bit less than i'd expected. Maybe i ate cupcakes after heavy dinner. I'm gonna try other things. Pretty and sweet is perfect for women.
I have heard of Petal Cupcakes' good reviews that I decided to give their cupcakes a try. Having tried their Tropical Mango cupcakes, I say their cupcakes are so good one would like to come back for more. A bit pricey for one cupcake but worth the occasional splurge for a yummy treat.
Simple business idea - making good cupcakes with amazing buttercream icing. The cupcake is moist and not too sweet. The frostings come in lots of flavours with my favourite being strawberry and salted caramel. Still have to work my way through it. Mango not my fave eventhough I love the fruit.
They have a loyalty / member system... So sign up to it and get a free cupcake and collect points on every purchase! (Don't quote me though as I Have yet to collect:))
Downside is the price. $5 a cupcake and even though you think buying more will give you a discount, it doesn't. So getting one as a treat doesn't seem to bad. Plus the prettiness of the cupcake and packaging makes it a good present to sweeten someone's day :)
Had heard good things about this place so decided to sample the lot! Everybody thoroughly enjoyed the cupcakes. Very scrummy indeed, nice moist cake and delicious icing. Thank you
Product presentation is fantastic, you really feel compelled to buy because of the appearance. The cake itself is smooth and tastes great. Not a big fan of the icing which is very sugary to my taste and are all very similar. The flavour differences seem to be very artificial.
Definitely my favourite place for cupcakes in Auckland! Petals cupcakes have an amazingly soft texture that is really unique and I haven't found anything similar elsewhere. There is a huge range of delicious flavours and they are just so darn pretty. I love the red velvet, plum, salted caramel, and so many more. Get in early though as popular flavours tend to sell out as the day goes on. The staff are always cheery and wait patiently as you spend ages trying to decide which flavour to get (because believe me, it's a tough decision). They also do cake versions of their cupcakes, which I've always wanted to try but haven't had the opportunity, they look amazing as well!
The cupcakes here are mostly delicious. I would especially recommend the Strawberry and Balsamic, Doris Plum and Tropical Mango. The cake is always moist and the icing is always smooth and delicious. Their salted caramel cupcakes could be better- it's mostly just sickly sweet and doesn't have enough of the 'salted' aspect going on. I'm not rating this place over 4 because of 2 reasons-
1. I feel like the cupcakes are way overpriced and have gone up even more recently and
2. Only 2 out of all the staff I've come across there provide good customer service. The others seem to not actually want to help in anyway and I feel like I'm disturbing them from whatever it is that they're so busy doing when I'm in there, which is poor form really.
Always perfectly baked cupcakes- and it doesn't matter what flavour you get because they'll always be amazing.
They do a pack deal if you buy a few I believe so it makes it worth your while to stock up.
I managed to leave 2 of these cupcakes on my kitchen table and they smelled so delicious my dog climbed up on to the table and ate them both. So that sucked because I missed out on the deliciousness.
Their icing is perfect and isn't overpowering at all so 5/5 from me!! 💗
Petal cupcakes has always been a favourite cupcake store as they offer different flavours and it looks amazing too. I've tried way too many cupcakes and they're all amazing. Only downside is the fact that each cupcake costs $5 which is quite expensive for anyone whos on a student budget. Overall, would come here occasionally if the wallet allows it.
Amazing cupcakes! My ultimate favourite is the red velvet but they are all amazing. A few times I've popped into the store around 3 and they'd sold out entirely or almost all except a few left so it pays to get in early so you can choose your flavours. The only thing that stopped me giving the place a 5 is that the icing is quite sweet. It looks amazing and tastes amazing but you can feel a bit sickly after eating the whole thing so I tend to swipe off half the icing in the beginning which works out being much more satisfying for me.
Looking for a sweet treat? Petal offer a wide range of different flavored cupcakes. While a little on the sweet side, I love the fact that they have such a wide ranges of choices, although my current favorite is their hawkes bay peach cupcake. Well worth a visit.
If you want good looking and moist cupcakes petals is the place to come. Not a massive fan of sweet food but I wouldn't say no to a petal cupcake, the vanilla and the raspberry cupcakes shouldn't be missed
Delicious! Favourite is definitely strawberry balsamic. Staff are always enthusiastic to help. Only wish they had special flavours for the day :)
Pretty good cupcakes, I'm not a fan of sweet things so I can't rave. But the flavours tasted nice and the store was decorated well. A little out of the way to find them.
These cupcakes are great. The size of the cupcakes are perfect and there's always a generous helping of icing. There are many flavours that I have enjoyed and others not so much. While $5 is quite pricy when compared to other gourmet treats these are quite good value. My main concern is that the cake part of the cupcake needs to hold itself together better. All up they are good value and have a flavour for everyone.
This basically is a piece of art! I heard good things about this place and being one of the best cupcake places in Auckland.
The cake itself is moist and fluffy. If you know how to make a cupcake you will know it's actually not easy to have those balance out.
Loved it, gotta try other flavours next time.
A friend introduced us to this cupcake store when we first arrived in Auckland, and told us 'you need to try these cupcakes, they'll be the best cupcakes you've had'. We managed to pop in just before closing so they were down to limited options.
I'm a big sweet tooth and always pick sweet over savoury, Petal Cupcakes had a very creamy delicate icing and a good base. However the best cupcakes I've ever had? Unfortunately not. Great cupcakes, but not memorable enough to be rushing back - at least for me. Not to say they aren't amazing cupcakes, but I think a perfect cupcake comes down to personal tastes, texture of the cupcake, amount of icing and sweetness.
Had a taste of Petal Cupcakes when @ninjunkie gave me one. True enough, they looked like roses in every colour you can imagine. Their flavour options are huge. Love their chocolate blueberry. Although I find that these cupcakes may be too sweet for my taste, they're very very good.
Delicious frosted icing on a super moist cake! That is what petal always delivers with there cupcakes. This place is tiny, but even if they had seating you wouldn't need much time there to gobble up one of these sweet treats.
They have a great assortment of flavours - and GF options available too. My favourite so far is the balsamic strawberry! They even customise cupcakes to cater for a special occasion or events - as we saw at Zomatos 7th birthday at Revelry they looked awesome. Also love how they come in a cute takeaway box - perfect for gifts
Purely based on the product they do... I think the cupcakes are amazing and the flavours are quite exotic sometimes but it's testament to their skill how they nail it every time as far fetched as the flavour may be.. LOVE IT
Petal Cupcakes are by far my favourite cupcake store in Auckland.
They have a tiny store on Teed Street with a cabinet full of beautifully deocated cupcakes. I have been in their store several times when the 3pm sugar fix is needed. The cupcakes are really moist, full of flavour and very addictive.
I recently got a Petal Cupcake for my birthday and it was AMAZING. It was red velvet flavour and topped with chocolate and vanilla buttercream. PERFECT!
Petal cupcakes is always my favourite reward treat for myself. Not only its delicious but also affordable. Perfect for a sweet tooth like myself
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
There have been many many claims that Petal cupcakes are the best cupcakes around town, which spiked my curiosity and led me to finally buying one after uni one day. Located in a tiny store on Teed Street, I walked into this cute little store to find a cabinet of beautifully decorated cupcakes staring right back at me.
The amount of choices were quite overwhelming as they had the classics such as chocolate, red velvet, strawberry, and unique flavours such as lavender and honey, black doris plum, jelly tip, JUST SO MANY! it all looked too good :P I finally decided on two gluten free ones, one salted caramel and the other the jelly tip one. I was amazed to find that the flavours really lived up to their name, especially the jelly tip ( I preferred this among the two), however I still found the icing way too sweet for my liking but that may be my personal preference. The cupcakes themselves were beautiful tho and extremely moist mmm! I had returned a week later and purchased the lavender and honey cupcake. THIS was definitely my favourite, it was the perfect balance of sweetness and had a gorgeous hint of lavender in the aftertaste YUM! Petal cupcakes have managed to convert me into a cupcake lover :)
Overall, highly reccomend for a little treat to satisfy your sweet tooth, although $5 is quite dear for one tiny cupcake; it's good to endulge a little in life :) Reccomended flavour: Lavender and honey!!
BEST CUPCAKES EVER. I was never really a big fan of cupcakes until I tried petal. I have been here 4 time and i need to go back! My favorites are red velvet and balsamic strawberry. The only problem is if you go after 3pm most days majority will be sold out. So you need to get in quick! They are so moist and the icing is amazing. I am never disappointed with petal
I have always wanted to try their cupcake since it went viral all over Facebook and Instagram so I finally tried it. I have the red velvet cupcake which was tasty but I think the icing can be better for the price I paid. I thought the icing wasn't smooth and a bit too sweet. Overall the cupcake had good soft texture and I love the box packaging.
THE BEST cupcakes your lips will ever touch in Auckland (have not yet explored the cupcake range around our beautiful country yet). If you're a newbie to PC, I would recommend the peach flavour as an introduction to the delicate and delicious PC world. The cupcakes taste exactly as the names shown in the glass window displays. Petal Cupcakes don't mess around, they are the real deal. It's a shame they don't have a branch in Ponsonby anymore - nevertheless, it is worth the trip into Auckland CBD to pick up a box...or two.
If you have a sweet tooth like me, then I'm sure you would have tried Petal Cupcakes in New Market.
The best cupcakes I've ever had. Well presented and they taste absolutely delicious.

My favourite place for cupcakes! I recently ordered mini cupcakes for my birthday which were beautifully done and tasted just as good as they looked. The guy working there I think his name was Clinton or quinton he was absolutely helpful. We changed our minds about having them in one box we wanted them in separate little boxes and there was no fuss at all! He was very kind and lovely. I recommend this place to anyone who wants cupcakes for an up coming event or someone who just wants a sweet treat

If you have a sweet tooth like me, then I'm sure you would have tried Petal Cupcakes in New Market. An indulgent and perfectly crafted cupcake, Petal never disappoints! Decorated with bright and colourful frosting, it's hard to just chose one (that's why I always go buy at least half a dozen different flavours to "share" with my friends).
My favourite flavours include the salted caramel, which is gluten free, golden syrup and the passionfruit which is slightly tart but with no seeds!
The rounded takeaway box is also very adorable and a perfect gift/item to bring to a baby shower or birthday.
Nice little cute shop full filled with colorful cupcakes, looks really yammy! My daughter loves it! Too sweet for me but absolutely a wonderland for kids!
I've been going here on and off the past 5 years and absolutely love the cupcakes.
I almost always go for the golden syrup cupcakes but have also tried the salted caramel and red velvet.
These cupcakes are delicious.
I literally love this place. If I couldn't get fat I would eat these cupcakes for the rest of my life. I always go in to buy 1 and come out with about 5 ha ha. My favourite is the Vanilla - they are a little pricey but honestly.... so worth the money.
Good stuff, bit pricey but I reckon most will find it worth the price.
Service is decent, nothing special but not unfriendly. Boxes they pack the cupcakes in are cute and durable.
Just shared a cupcake with my workmate - OMG the Red Velvet Buttermilk was to die for!!! They were gift from my man - more of these cupcakes and I might actually marry him :) Would definitely buy for any future gifts.
Thought I would try these cupcakes as this place had been recommended. WOW WOW WOW SO SO good. PassionFruit YUM
Was worth the $$$$
Yummy cup cakes i bought 6 for my dads birthday, the double choc was the yummiest!!!!
had a passion fruit and mango to, witch the icing looked AMAZING but very rich to eat!!! would def recommend!!!
only downfall, $30 for 6 cupcakes eek
Did a Cupcakes Tasting challenge in our company's amazing race this year. I had pre-ordered different cupcake flavours, and opted to make all the icing blue (for extra fee).
My team couldn’t stop talking about the cupcakes after the challenge – it was hilarious how challenging it was for them to guess the flavours. Some even thought there was a reverse-psychology experiment going on, whereby they answered that one box contained Blueberry cupcakes (blue icing by default), because I was trying to trick them into thinking it was a different flavour.
Many said they were great cupcakes, regardless of flavours: Base was not dry at all, icing was not too sweet, and there were heaps of options. There were options for people with strict dietary requirements and allergies too, and found out that the bakery is nut-free.
All staff were so helpful, from email communications to in-person advice. Thanks a lot for helping make our amazing race even more amazing!
Usually cupcakes just look pretty with thick tasteless icing. BUT Petal Cupcakes icing is the icing of my cupcake. The icing taste just right, not overpowering , yet simple& pretty. The cupcake iself is moist & flavoursome. Making great gift for friends.
My fav flavour is always Black Dorris Plum. Great service . The shop itself is clean& neat
I have been coming here for years
I ordered cupcakes to be delivered for the wrong date. When I emailed, the responses were prompt and the Newmarket team arranged for the order to be delivered the same day and within the timeframe requested. Thank you Quinn from the Newmarket store for the outstanding communication and service. I highly recommend the store.
Petal Cupcakes in Newmarket have a great range of colourful and different flavoured cupcakes. They are very appealing to the eyes and lovely as a gift 🎁 in a nice box. You can buy in a 4, 6 or 12 pack and save a bit, otherwise it's like $5 each. They also come in mini size 12 packs in one flavour only
Absolutely adorable young cashier with her soft polite and friendly greetings. The cupcakes are packaged in adorable little takeaway boxes. They are extreeeeeeeemely moist and the frosting is pretty good. $5.5 for one. Good for the occasional snack, but they are just cupcakes, so they don’t taste too amazing.
We had our cupcakes from this place for our wedding as gifts for our guests. The service provided was excellent. Price is good also, and last but not least the flavour of the cupcakes was very very good. I have tried the strawberry and the blueberry one. The strawberry reminds me of the strawberry pocky flavour which is my favourite. The blueberry is also very unique. The right amount of sweetness and also we were allow to pick our printed design on top. Very happy with this choice.
Sweet and delicious surprise received from Petals!! An overseas family member organized a gift from Petals. I received 12 assorted cupcakes. Each cupcake had different flavor frosting and the cupcakes were moist. It was well packed, message card included and delivery safely (all cupcakes are intact). I tried their cupcake for the first time and will head to their Newmarket store for more when lockdown levels are eased. An excellent gift when you don’t know what to buy for your loved ones.
Whilst meandering down Teed Street in Newmarket, I fortuitously discovered Petal Cupcakes! I had previously been fortunate enough to get to sample one of their mini cupcakes at work from a surprise congratulatory gift box for a co-worker.
I felt like a little child gazing in awe and amazement at the display cabinet of beautiful cupcakes of varying colours and flavours. Finally, I arduously managed to chose a selection of flavours including salted caramel, black Doris plum, vanilla bean and espresso cupcake to take away in a gorgeous Petals carry box.
The cupcakes are large, moist and perfectly decorated and flavoured with a wide range to choose from and you can order online too!
Highly recommended!
A BIG thank you to Petal Cupcake! They were so accommodating for a last minute order for our Queens Jubilee themed work place celebrations. They looked amazing! Delivered early, outstanding service and tasted delicious 😊 THANK YOU!
Beautiful cupcake shop in the Middle of the heart of Newmarket. Amazing taste, flavours and presentation. They provide same-day delivery of cupcakes all around Auckland. I highly recommend this place for any occasion
