Cincinnati & Northern KY: 8 Places for Gourmet Cupcakes
Even if you're a competent baker, cupcakes are usually better to buy than make yourself. Great cupcakes aren't just about flavor but presentation: a decadent cake with a beautiful swirl of icing on top and a few little flairs to make it stand out. It's not an easy skill to master, and if you want a great cupcake, sometimes you need to look for the right spot—especially if you've just moved to a new area. So where do you go in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky areas to find gourmet cupcakes? Here's a roundup of our favorite places.
Jazzy Sweeties Bakery
1006 East McMillan Street, Cincinnati, OH 45206
The only drawback to Jazzy Sweeties is that it doesn't do walk-ins. This locally owned, independent bakery does custom orders, which must be placed in advance. They're well worth the extra wait, though. Jazzy Sweets has a variety of treats that taste as good as they look—especially their cupcakes. The bakery's website includes a gallery of some of the cupcakes they can make, from simple birthday cupcakes to elegant strawberry cupcakes (with a decadent strawberry glaze) to cupcakes shaped like Cookie Monster and more. They also have a variety of other treats available, from cookies to wedding cakes—all beautifully decorated and absolutely delicious. Whatever the occasion and whatever kind of cupcakes you're looking for, Jazzy Sweeties can make you something that will satisfy.

Each location has a variety of cupcakes available, but the specialty is cheesecake cupcakes: Decadent, gourmet cheesecake with a vanilla wafer crust, baked into cupcake form and topped with cherry, cookies and cream, key lime, and other toppings. Or, if you'd rather have a traditional cupcake, try their coconut, red velvet, and strawberry blast flavors. And ask about their flavor of the week! They also provide cupcakes by special order for weddings and other events.

7 Places to Sip a Cool Summer Treat in Northern Kentucky
Summer means warmer temperatures, which are mostly a good thing. But when it gets too hot and you want to cool off, ordering a milkshake or iced coffee can help you chill out. Fortunately, Northern Kentucky has several great locations serving up these cold drinks near Boone County homes for sale. Many also serve food items, so you can enjoy a burger with your milkshake or a pastry with your coffee, and you'll even be able to order a boozy milkshake if you'd like to, although it's also available without the alcohol.
When you're ready to cool off and treat yourself, head to one of the following seven places to order a milkshake or iced coffee in Northern Kentucky.
Fillmore's Dairy Hut
7500 Burlington Pike, Florence, KY 41042
A nostalgic staple of Florence for years, Fillmore's Dairy Hut is the type of place that adults fondly remember going to as kids with their parents or heading to after school or a sporting event, and now they're returning with their own kids. Order a burger, footlong cheese coney topped with homemade Cincinnati-style chili, or other traditional favorite with your milkshake, and you'll be pleasantly surprised at the reasonable prices. Milkshakes come in flavors, including strawberry, blueberry, chocolate chip, butterscotch, and peanut butter.
Graeter's Ice Cream
301 Buttermilk Pike, Fort Mitchell, KY 41017
View this post on Instagram
Graeter's Ice Cream traces its roots back to 1870 in Cincinnati when its founder began selling ice cream from two carts. At the time, it was hand-crafted in French pots. Ice cream is the all-important base of any great milkshake, and the fourth-generation family-owned company still makes it in a French pot freezer that leaves very little trapped air. The result is indulgent, delicious ice cream that translates into the same qualities in their milkshakes. Try a refreshing peach shake in the summer, or create your own from one of the shop's many flavors, including black raspberry chocolate chip and brown butter bourbon pecan. You'll have your choice of a 16-ounce small milkshake, a 20-ounce medium, or a 24-ounce large.
Mad Mike's Burgers & Fries
6420 Dixie Hwy., Florence, KY 41042
Mad Mike's Burgers & Fries serves up fresh, made-to-order burgers, and you can build your own or order a gourmet burger made with a half-pound of 100% black Angus beef. The Rockefeller burger—served with blue cheese crumbles, mango chutney, beer-battered onion strings, cilantro may, and lettuce—is a customer favorite. Have some hand-cut french fries along with your burger, and treat yourself to a milkshake with your meal. You can choose from flavors including cookies and cream, chocolate chip cookie, espresso vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate.
Nomad
225 Fairfield Ave., Bellevue, KY 41073
View this post on Instagram
A bar may not be the first destination you think of when you're craving a milkshake, but Nomad serves an impressive list of boozy concoctions made with three ounces of alcohol. If you'd rather not have the alcohol, all shakes are also available in non-boozy versions. Try versions like Dough You Want Me Baby, consisting of ice cream, Ghirardelli caramel sauce, edible cookie dough, and vanilla vodka. The decadent shake is topped with whipped cream, a house-made cookie, chocolate chips, and a cherry. Or order the Oops! I Split It Again, Nomad's take on a banana split. It has ice cream blended with vanilla vodka, Frangelico, Ghirardelli chocolate, and banana split-inspired ingredients like bananas, walnuts, and cherries.
Jet Coffee
8203 U.S. 42, Florence, KY 41042
With its double drive-thru lanes, Jet Coffee quickly lets you cool off and fuel up with an iced coffee before or after work, school, or running errands. Coffee drinks are available hot or iced, including the butterscotch and rum Highlander Grogg brewed coffee. Specialty lattes, which can even be ordered frozen with whipped cream, include interesting flavors such as Flower Power with lavender and honey and Raspberry Truffle with raspberry and dark chocolate. Frappes are also frozen with whipped cream and include caramel and spiced or vanilla chai.
Enlightenment Coffee
11069 Clay Dr., Walton, KY 41094
View this post on Instagram
Enlightenment Cafe is a welcoming community gathering spot that's the perfect place to meet some friends and catch up over coffee. Its coffee beans are equitably sourced and locally roasted by Carabello Coffee for quality and freshness. Cool off with an iced coffee, including a latte, mocha, chocolate Americano with almond and oat milk, bourbon caramel frappe, or white chocolate raspberry frappe. And while you're sipping your coffee, enjoy a house-made baked good, breakfast burrito, or bagel along with it.
Dreamy Whip
3020 Washington St., Burlington, KY 41005
At Dreamy Whip, you can have your choice of the best of both worlds: a milkshake or an iced coffee. If you're in the mood for a shake, try a chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, peanut butter, or banana variety. And if you'd rather cool off with an iced coffee, try an affogato, which combines ice cream and espresso, or order a frosted coffee. The shop also has food trucks that are dispatched across the area, so check their Facebook page linked above to see a schedule of their next locations.
Sip, Sip, Hooray!
