Frequently Asked Questions

I've never heard of cupcake flavours like this. Do they taste good?
Of course they taste good! We wouldn’t sell you something that didn’t. We dreamed up hundreds of flavours and taste tested over 30 of them to create these 10 amazing flavours. Anyone who enjoys sweet and savoury flavours will enjoy our cupcakes. For those of you who are hesitant to try our revolutionary flavours, climb out of your square box and dare to be adventurous!

I’m a vegetarian, which ManCakes should I stay away from?
Buffalo Wing, Breakfast and Bacon Chili Chocolate are the 3 cupcakes that you should avoid. Unless you’re one of those vegetarians that makes exceptions… in which case you’re not really a vegetarian so I don’t know why you would even ask that. For all you serious vegetarians, while your carnivorous friends enjoy those 3 delicious flavours, we would like to point out that you still have 7 other equally amazing flavours to choose from.

Do ManCakes contain nuts?
All of our cupcakes are completely nut free and are baked in a nut free environment. So put your epi pens away. You're safe with us.

How do I order and pay for my ManCakes?
All orders are processed through our online ordering system. This ensures that your orders get processed accurately and delivered to you as promised. We accept major credit cards including Visa and MasterCard. Charges are processed through Paypal in order to keep all of your personal information private.

What makes your ManCakes better than regular cupcakes that I can get from another store?
Brace yourself, because this is going to blow your mind. First of all, we bake all of our cupcakes fresh for every delivery. We use premium ingredients and we do that for a reason. In order to get the perfect flavour we experimented a lot with different ingredients and flavour combinations as well as the proportions to have them in so that everything tastes exactly right. In order to do that we have been very specific with the size of our cupcakes, the amount of filling, and the amount of icing and topping. And, to complete our distinctive look and taste, all of our cupcakes are iced with the ManCakes “M”. These cupcakes have been designed for the sole purpose of tasting great.

What flavours are included in your Day Pack and Night Pack?
Day Pack – Buffalo Wing, Breakfast, Apple Brie, Pink Peppercorn Grapefruit, King Kong and Bacon Chili Chocolate.
Night Pack – Buffalo Wing, Breakfast, Rum & Coke, Whiskey Lime, Tequila Pineapple and Chocolate Red Wine

Why do the Day packs and Night packs both have the Buffalo Wing and Breakfast cupcakes in them?
Buffalo Wing is our signature cupcake and we want everybody to have the chance to taste this bad boy! Fine, so why the Breakfast cupcake? Everybody likes breakfast. No need to search for a place with all day breakfast anymore!

Can I create my own assorted pack of cupcakes?
Nope. We currently offer a Day Pack and a Night Pack. They are separated in to non-alcoholic, and alcoholic flavours, with Buffalo Wing and Breakfast crossing over in to each pack. But let us know in our “Contact” section if you have a great idea for a better way of doing things. If enough people contact us, who knows what could happen?

What time can I expect my ManCakes to be delivered?
Sadly, we are not FedEx or UPS, and we cannot guarantee our delivery times. However, if you want to select a future delivery date you can choose any Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday in the future. Or if you have special delivery requirements please either let us know in the order notes, or contact us before you order and we will do our best to accommodate you.

I won’t be home to receive my ManCakes. What can I do?
We can always delivery to your workplace or another location that you may be. In addition, we can leave your cupcakes at your door if you choose this option. However, ManCakes Bakery cannot be responsible for lost or damaged cupcakes.

Can I have ManCakes shipped to me on a day that is not listed as one of your delivery days?
We don’t list delivery days for nothing you know. We deliver on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. However, we don't want to deny anyone the pleasure of experiencing our ManCakes, so we will do our best to get your order to you when you need it. Please contact us if you have requirements that are out of our normal delivery days.

Do you guys offer combined shipping?
We do! Shipping is $6 if you order one or two packs. But, if you order three packs shipping is free. So, get a few friends together, order all at once and save!

I have a corporate party, wedding, bachelor party or some other crazy event that I want people to remember! Do you guys cater?
Of course! We want to help make your events memorable!
Email us at eat@mancakesbakery.comor call us at 778.886.5323 with your request and we would be happy to work with you to create a custom package that will be perfect for whatever type of event you are planning.

I have some amazing ideas for flavours that you guys should offer. Do you take suggestions?
You can bet that we always have our mad scientist at work, constantly trying to create new flavours. If you have some flavours that you feel like we should offer, please send us a comment under our “Contact” section. We'd love to hear about what you dream up!

Buffalo Wing

Buffalo Wing cupcake... that’s weird right? Wrong. You want to know what’s really weird? Who’s ever heard of a buffalo with wings? I mean, that doesn’t make any sense. Can you imagine getting pooped on by a flying buffalo? Good luck or not, that would ruin your day. Next time you think something’s weird, maybe you should take a second to think about what you’re saying.

Rum and Coke

You may not remember where you went last night... or the girl you have listed as “that girl from the bar” in your phone... but you will absolutely remember these Rum and Coke cupcakes. The strong taste of coke mixed with a punch of rum is the perfect start to a great night that you might remember.

Breakfast

Now, we don’t want to say this is a hangover cure (because it isn’t), but everyone feels better eating a hearty breakfast after a hard night. But who’s going to spend the time to cook the eggs and bacon and put it on pancakes with maple syrup... uh! What a pain. Instead, pick up a pack of Breakfast cupcakes and you’ll have the whole experience ready for you when you wake up.

King Kong

Tarzan has Jane. Mowgli has Baloo. And King Kong has these cupcakes. One taste and you’ll feel like you’re in the movie! Climbing the Empire State building, fighting a T-Rex, and being captured by Jack Black... Geez... that movie was terrible. On the bright side, these cupcakes are fantastic.

Apple Brie

You work hard. And does anyone appreciate you for it? Probably not. So why not kick back after a long day, pour yourself a glass of wine and enjoy this delectable combination of Apple and Brie. And if that “to do” list starts to creep back in your mind, just remind yourself that someone needs to finish all these cupcakes. I mean, if someone has to do it, it may as well be you. Right? Right.

Pink Peppercorn Grapefruit

Remember that time that you did that thing, or said that comment and she got mad at you for it? And do you remember that really expensive gift that you got her to make up for that thing that you did or said? Well, those days are behind you. Next time you mess up, and there will be a next time, just be sure to have a Pink Peppercorn Grapefruit cupcake on hand and she’ll forget all about it. It’s the perfect crime.

Tequila Pineapple

Picture yourself on a tropical beach. You’re sitting on a comfy chair, reading a book, ogling the pretty women and sipping a tropical drink. Now snap out of it. You’re not on a beach. You’re in front of your computer ogling cupcakes. But fear not. One taste of this Tequila Pineapple cupcake and you’ll be brought right back to your relaxing fantasy land.

Whiskey Lime

It’s a special type of person that will truly appreciate a Whiskey Lime cupcake. What type of person you ask? He avoids cologne because women prefer his natural musk. He’s a scratch golfer because no one would ever say he had a handicap. You can find his biography in the Action/Adventure section. You get the idea...

Bacon Chili Chocolate

When John M. Carleton invented ancho chili chocolate in 1934 he dreamed of combining it with bacon to make bacon chili chocolate cupcakes. Never able to perfect it, his son Timothy took up the charge in 1968. Sadly, Timothy died later that same year in a bizarre cupcake accident. The quest was abandoned... until now. (None of the that is true except that we have a Bacon Chili Chocolate cupcake, and it's awesome)

Chocolate Red Wine

In a recent article of Scientific America there was a study of which foods are the most powerful aphrodisiacs. For men, it was found that no food was necessary... just women. And for women it was found that chocolate and red wine were off the charts. So, to all my friends out there looking for a good night... You are welcome.
