The Frosted Cupcake clearly states that they are nut-free online, in-person, and on their packaging. My family visited The Frosted Cupcake while on vacation and enjoyed all the different flavors available. My brother's favorite was the New Yorker, which is a double chocolate cupcake with cream and white chocolate chips. The Black and White cupcake was also very good. My parents who don’t have food allergies also enjoyed the Mint and Carrot cupcakes. My favorite was the Red Velvet because it had the perfect texture and amazing taste. The cream cheese frosting wasn’t too sweet and paired well with the cupcake. They also have cute little cake pops that tasted amazing. There is an official cupcake menu (below) as they offer different cupcakes on different days. The Frosted Cupcake is located near Niagara Falls on the Canadian side, so go check it out if you're nearby.

Q & A with Trudy B. (Business Owner):
Is coconut used in any of your cupcakes other than the CocoColada flavor?
Coconut is only used in the Cococolada flavored cupcake, which is chocolate coconut, and coconut cream pie. Note: this flavor is not normally on the menu, but it is used for the daily choice cupcake sometimes.
What allergies do you accommodate/are there options for those allergic to milk, egg, wheat, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, soy, and sesame seeds (top 9 allergens)?
Dairy free, vegan, soy free, gluten/ dairy free or gluten free/vegan, egg free accommodations can me made through request orders. There is no sesame or shellfish in the facility, and The Frosted Cupcake is known as a nut-free bakery!
How do you limit CC (cross-contact) for gluten free, diary free, etc. orders/ requests? What steps do you take to accommodate people with food allergies?
Since there is flour in the facility, and flour can travel in the air, there is no guarantee of zero cross contamination of gluten. That being said, there has never seemed to be an issue, and separate utensils, bowls, and pans are used to increase safety.
