The baked goods at this place are delicious! I must be honest, between my boyfriend and I we tried A LOT of cookies and cupcakes lol. Everything I had was so good so I can't even tell you which to try, whatever strikes your fancy is bound to be good. Everything is also made to order, the cookies were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the cupcakes were soft and melt in your mouth.
I read a few reviews that delivery took forever and ordering online can take longer, so I suggest by-passing the online ordering (as convenient as it may seem) and call to place the order. Speaking to someone allowed me to see what they had ready and what their daily specials were. If you order online and they are out of what you want it may cause some unwanted confusion and hassle (as well as more delays). Also, the lady told me that the cupcakes I wanted needed to be made because they sold out, so she warned me that delivery would be at least an hour because it was fresh. I would suggest taking into account the long delivery time when you order, or go ahead and pick up to make it faster.
Although I agree it is not the cheapest bakery, they are open 'til 2:00am and do deliver for free. I have never heard of a bakery that offers what Boulder Baked does, so if you have a late night sweet tooth, they'll satisfy the craving. -

3.5 stars.
Boulder Baked definitely has the right idea. Deliver warm cookies to drunk college kids. I definitely partook once or twice back in my CU days.
Last weekend I decided to check out their new (to me) location. They had a ridiculous amount of cookie flavors- at least 15. They also had 5 or 6 batches of cupcakes in the case.
While the cookies came out warm, they weren't as awesome as I remembered. The chocolate tasted more burned than chocolate. It also took 15 minutes to get 4 cookies.
So the stars I give are mostly for my memories of their cookies, not so much for the taste.Listed in: Pour some sugar on me!, 100 for 100

I love gluten. I looove gluten. I know this because my girlfriend is gluten-free and I've eaten a lot of her gluten-free food and it usually tastes like cardboard. This is why I was so surprised with how delicious the gluten-free birthday cake I bought her from Boulder Baked tasted.
First off I was surprised at their selection of gluten-free cakes. They had GF carrot cake, GF German chocolate cake, GF red velvet cake and GF chocolate. I opted for the GF chocolate and it was honestly some of the best cake I've ever had, gluten-free or no.
I'm singing Boulder Baked's praises to anyone who will listen! -

Literally the best cookies you will ever try. There is nothing better when its late at night and you want some type of unhealthy snack. I always end up getting way more than I should because they are just so amazing! Also, I had grilled cheese there once, and it was great too (though slightly over priced).
I think the only complaint anyone could have is that their delivery service is slow sometimes. But I usually just go to the store! -

Wow! Words cannot describe how amazing this place is! I am a night owl and I have a HUGE sweet tooth so there is no other place than Boulder Baked which combines my love for both (its open till 2 am). I have only been there a few times but every time I have been the service and friendly. This place allows me to indulge my inner Cupcake Wars Chef and my top 3 recommendations (thus far) are the Red Velvet, Peanut Butter and Chocolate, and Salted Carmel (easily my favorite). Though all all the cupcakes are moist and delicious, DO NOT get me started on their cookies. Despite the wait, nothing beats fresh-from-the-oven cookies and you can pick-and-choose as you wish so go nuts! From the classic standby, Chocolate Chip, to the more crazy Everything, you cannot go wrong.

This used to be one of our favorite places to order from... I mean, cookies and milk delivered to my door at midnight?? Heck yes. Great for study groups and projects. However, our last experience with them was so horrible I will never support them again.
I will leave it at our order being 2 hours late, being hung up on by a terrible employee when inquiring about the late cookies, and then being yelled at by the delivery boy (apparently the terrible employee's brother...runs in the family?). We never were rude or unreasonable with these people, we were just hoping to cancel the order since it was so late and we no longer wanted them. When they told us we couldn't cancel, we accepted it. BUT even if we were (rude/unreasonable), it is basic customer service to, oh I don't know, not hang up on the customer and then send the delivery boy to yell at them. A business with good customer service would have either given us a discounted price or given us the cookies for free.
This treatment definitely isn't worth the borderline crappy cookies they make. The appeal of Boulder Baked is getting fresh baked cookies delivered to your door... but they definitely aren't anything special. Anyone with any basic baking skills could easily make something much better than what they offer. -

Had a sweet tooth and wanted a yummy cupcake, Yelp directed me here. I was surprised that there were so few cupcake flavors available on a friday afternoon before a holiday weekend. The cupcakes are a standard cupcake size but seemed kinda small and were not incredibly appealing (frosting was sloppily applied). I picked one out and was told it was $3 with tax. Yikes! I indulge in cupcakes fairly often, but for the tiny, poorly presented cupcake, this is expensive.
As for the taste, I got the strawberry shortcake cupcake, it was pretty good...not knock your socks off, but good. Cake was moist and strawberries on top were fresh. -

This place smells so good! I've only tried their cookies. I usually get the chocolate chip and white chocolate macadamia nut cookies. It does take awhile but it's definitely worth the wait. Warm, gooey cookies made just for you. They are perfect for those late night study groups.

Boulder Baked's cakes are out of this world. The past two years, my birthday cake (chocolate with chocolate frosting) has come from Boulder Baked, and it is absolutely delicious and delivered right to my door. You cannot go wrong with the cake here! Thanks for making my birthday extra special, Boulder Baked. :)

Boulder Baked seems to have capitalized on the fact that college students like to drink. And college students who go out to drink inevitably want an after hours snack (I know this not only because it is common knowledge, but also because I am one.) In order to cater to the late night masses, they keep hours that allow for these crowds, and it appears to be working well for them. (In other words, don't expect them to be open before 4pm)
In addition to their savvy business approach, they serve darn good food. They have a selection of soups and sandwiches (nothing too fancy, but tasty nonetheless) but their signature is their warm gooey cookies and delicious cupcakes.
I don't know how they make those cupcakes, but they taste like the kind of cupcakes that your childhood was made of. Perfect, homey cake batter with an ultra sugary frosting to top if off (are you hungry yet??)
Perhaps the best part is that they deliver, and at no charge with no minimum on what you can order. I've used this service myself more times than I care to admit, but it's wonderfully convenient. Just keep in mind that being in Boulder, you are likely not the only person to get hit with the munchies, so be prepared to anticipate your order for a few hours (yes, hours.) Just hunker down and prepare yourself for some simple goodness! -

Thank goodness this place or cupcakes aren't in my proximity in SF.
Because if Boulder Baked was as convenient to me as it is to my friend Kat C., I would be in SERIOUS, SERIOUS trouble. I mean, they DELIVER to your house until the wee hours of the night, which if you're working on a project or paper late at night is just an invitation for trouble.
I occasionally play the "I don't eat gluten" game and for some reason, I decided I wanted a cupcake that was gluten free.
"What is the point?!?" you may be asking, I know I know, but after all of the gluttonous eating I had been doing in Colorado, I figured I should try to make some sort of concession to eating better so I decided to try it out.
Um, yeeeeeah.
The cupcakes were amazing. Phenomenal. Brilliant.
Geezus holy moly!!!
Their pumpkin(gluten free) is out of this world, and their red velvet (not gluten free) sheer perfection.
BF had their carrot and said it was tasty, and I can't imagine any of their selections being poor.
It is a no frills sort of place, open late and is all about their cupcakes. Which after coming from a city full of " cupcakeries" was a nice change of scene where it wasn't about charging you so they can pay their rent. -

An overwhelming variety of fresh baked cookies to choose from! I was here on a Sunday night so there weren't many other customers and I got my 3 cookies within 15 minutes. I went with oatmeal cinnamon chocolate chip, ginger doodle and oatmeal butterscotch chocolate chip. I couldn't really tell the difference between my two oatmeal cookies but they were definitely good.
I would describe these cookies as "toll house" like in flavor, appearance, texture and size. This is a good everyday cookie that you wouldn't feel guilty eating. -

I will keep this as short and sweet as possible. We were headed to The Kitchen (never ended up eating there) from campus (went to a basketball game) and passed by here. I noticed a display case filled with cupcakes out of the corner of my eye. I told my husband that we would have to stop after dinner on our way back to the car. We ended up stopping there a few minutes later after deciding to go back to Rueben's Burger Bistro for dinner. The best word to describe these cupcakes: cute. Compared to Big Fat Cupcake or Gigi's, these were miniature! That's good, right? As long as it means fewer calories. We bought four cupcakes:
Gluten-Free PB & Jelly - gluten-free yellow cake filled with jelly and topped with peanut butter buttercream frosting. I really enjoyed this one. The cupcake was moist. Jelly filling added a bit of fruity sweetness. The frosting was thick, creamy, and nutty. Not too little, not too much.
Strawberry Shortcake - my husband ate this one. It was a yellow cake with whipped cream and strawberries. He liked it.
Peanut Butter Cup - chocolate cupcake with peanut butter buttercream frosting and a piece of Reese's on top. The cupcake was tasty. Once again, delicious frosting.
Banana Nut - the banana cupcake tasted amazing! Light and fluffy. I definitely could taste the banana. I think there was some sort of filling in this one, but I can't remember for sure. It was frosted with vanilla buttercream and garnished with chopped peanuts.
As you can see from my individual cupcake reviews, they were amazing! I would love to give them 5 stars. However, I do have one complaint: the price. It's a crime to charge almost $3 (with tax) for such a small treat. I pay $3.50 for a Big Fat Cupcake and they are twice as big. These cupcakes should only cost $2 or maybe $2.25 at most. I guess it's Boulder though. They have to pay their rent somehow. -

So....my cousin goes to University of Boulder, and I visited her last year and got to experience that which is Boulder Baked-a late night cookie delivery service. My first experience was out of this world. The cookies were delivered fresh out of the oven, and melted in your mouth in each bite.
This time around, we ordered them at 11:25 and they said 40-45 minutes. First off, we receive them around 12:40, and they had hardened and were not warm at all; not to mention we are about 2 blocks away. I tried to call them back but maybe this will have more of an impact. I never thought I'd have to microwave Boulder Baked cookies.
For one whole year I was awaiting to have these cookies again, and I was left extremely disappointed. =/
The idea is great, but maybe some work on the customer service? -

Indeed a good bakery - Love their fresh baked cookies, cup cakes and sundaes. They serve hot and freshly baked cookies, which is totally worth the wait.
They have a good variety of Vegan Cup Cakes - Tasty too!
Perfect place for after lunch chat or a Mid-Night Desert craving! -

Boulder baked is open late and is a great place for a late-night, post-drink treat. However, since it is not a bar, you can expect hordes of high school kids who don't want to go home, can't get into bars, and don't have the college party hook-up. So be prepared to wait for a table in the 10PM-12AM, pre-curfew high school gaggle.
I love the fact that Boulder Baked delivers vegan, but I also hate it. Late at night when I usually just had to suffer through my sugar cravings, and was too lazy to go out, I managed to get to sleep without destroying my diet. Not so now. Boulder baked to the rescue.
I absolutely adore their pumpkin spice vegan cupcakes and think the vanilla ones with vanilla frosting are pretty good too. Sometimes (when I'm really lucky) they will have run out and bake them fresh for me, so they arrive still warm. OMG delicious.
What's also delicious is one of the delivery boys, who, though he is far too young, has me thinking dirty thoughts about him, me and frosting. Lick lick. Yummy.Listed in: Gluten-free

Finally made it! I have been wanting to try Boulder Baked for a while now. I am a cookie-a-holic, but only fresh made not the bag stuff. Boulder Baked hit the spot.
I took my boys there and they loved the choices and inhaled the cookie. I got an assortment of 12 and I ate a bite of each. Staff was patient and service was great. HOWEVER, I went at 5 pm when no one was there. I did hear a phone calls complaining about the delivery, but my experience was perfect. Cookies are wonderful - my fav was the snickerdoodle. -

Boulder Baked is one of the few-ish places to find vegan cupcakes and they don't disappoint. We sampled two of the three available vegan cupcakes, the PB&J and chocolate banana and both were tasty. The ratio of frosting to cake was a little too much for my taste, but I just scraped a bit off and all was well. I liked that both the frosting and cake were sweet without going over the top, and that both cupcakes actually tasted like their descriptions.
I would definitely come here again for a vegan cupcake fix. -

Oh boy, does it smell good to walk into this place. You spend most of your time trying to figure out what smells so good--but it's everything! Everything is what smells so good! And you have to shove everything into your face to get all that deliciousness inside of you, which is pretty much what I did.
The location makes me forget that it's there, and parking is a little difficult over in that area, but overall, oh boy!... (go back to first line) -

The cookies here are freshly baked and absolutely delicious. The downside? They take WAAAY too long to serve them. Yes, they are made to order, but I felt like we waited longer for our cookie sundae then any of the other customers. Maybe about 45 minutes.
It's cool that this place is open late at night, but it was also overcrowded (mostly with teenagers) and it was loud and we were sitting next to a really annoying group of people (surprisingly, not teens). I guess I would come back here if I happened to be out late and just wanted something sweet to eat, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. -

Thank you for being the best cookie shop in Colorado. Where else can you get cookies at 1:30 in the morning? They are moist and warm and make a long night of drinking "sweet".
Get a red velvet cupcake and a Cuban sandwich while your there also!
Keep up the good work! -

What a fantastic business: Delivering comfort food at all-hours to the middle of campus. Their cookies made some late nights in the lab almost bearable!
Today I had the fluffer-nutter cupcake, my childhood "treat" perfected as an adult indulgence. The cupcake was moist with a good crumb, the frosting was flavorful and smooth, and the cake-to-frosting ratio was perfect. None of the flavors overpowered the others and it was not overly sweet- which would be easy to do with a marshmallow and peanut butter combo! -

Anyplace that has homemade tomato bisque soup and grilled white cheddar on sourdough bread available on a regular basis for a reasonable price is excellent for me. That is my ultimate comfort food. And they do it well. 12 ounces of the soup, a huge generous sandwich, and table service even though it is an order-at-the-counter restaurant...and they bake all sorts of yummy looking cupcakes too. My friends ordered half a dozen cookies and the cookies were baked to order for them, totally hot and fresh out of the oven. They also do that on a regular basis. Genuinely friendly service.
Just about any favorite comfort food known to man (and woman) is available here, except for mac and cheese. I will suggest that they add that to their menu too...
Tonight was my first time at this little gem of a comfort food haven, and I will be back, next time my friends go. -

Okay, Boulder Baked, you win.
You win because you managed to make a vegan cupcake good. I went in today in hopes of trying out their chocolate peanut butter cupcake, but none were to be found. Instead, there was a chocolate banana with peanut butter icing, which was all perfectly fine and dandy except that it was labeled 'VEGAN'. Nooooo!
See, my experience with vegan desserts has been that they are crumbly and dry and tasteless with a disgusting oily tang and leave you with major dry mouth and feeling as if you just ate some super stale whole grain bread.
Dan was like, "Well... this would be a good test to administer to them to see if they really deserve five stars, wouldn't it?"
Good point.
I ordered that, and he ordered the (non-vegan) S'more. The S'more was on par with Mint Chocolate from the other day. The chocolate peanut butter banana... was awesome. If no one had told me it was vegan I would have never guessed. The icing in particular I would have gladly eaten by the spoonful.
Blah blah blah, Boulder Baked rocks and everyone should go etc. etc. And I haven't even tried their cookies yet, even though their cookies are their claim to fame!Listed in: Pearl Street Eating from Best…

A bakery that DELIVERS milk and cookies until 2 a.m.?
Yes, it exists.
Stoners (er, considering it's Boulder, everyone) REJOICE! Offering cookies, miniature pies, cupcakes, and other goodies along with an impressive beverage selection, Boulder Baked is the place to go for an after-dinner treat or a late-night excursion. However, with the delivery availability, you never have to leave your hot-boxed dorm room!
It's about time.

The food is great, if not a bit pricey, but it's worth it for good sweets. The 3 star rating is because of price and their online ordering system. We ordered online, 45 minutes later they called to say they don't have what we wanted. We said cancel the order, they processed it anyway, took 11 days to get the refund after 3 phone calls.

Sometimes in the afternoon my blood sugar falls off the table, and I can no longer deny my body what it craves...sugar in the form of small cakes with frosting on them. That's when I head on over to Boulder Baked. It wasn't my first cupcake experience in Boulder...that belongs to Tee & Cakes. I had to do a multi-visit taste test to each venue in order to figure out where my loyalties were going to lay.
I can tell you this: The cakes at Boulder Baked are an order of magnitude better than at Tee & Cakes. Always moist, always flavorful, always satisfying. I have never had a bad cupcake here. The Red Velvet is my personal favorite, but the Chocolate/Chocolate and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup are also strong players.
The cookies and brownies are good, but nothing to scream in the streets about. I've only had a single cookie and a single brownie, so take that for what it's worth.
On the negative side, sometimes the service is a little baked as well. Don't get me wrong, everyone is always pleasant and happy to help you, but I've seen lines ignored to answer phone in orders, and have walked in to nobody behind the counter and had to wait 5 minutes before being acknowledged. But, I'm usually there in the slower afternoon hours, so there's that.
I need to try their lunch items someday. -

OK, before I write anything at all I'm going to say that this place has the best cupcakes I have EVER had in my life. That's enough of a reason to stop in. I had the Pumpkin Spice and the Banana, Chocolate, Peanut Butter, both vegan I believe, and they were nothing but amazing! I also had the Flourless Chocolate Cake that is gluten free but not dairy free. It was good, not to rich, not to heavy like some.
In short the three things I tried were excellent, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere was comfortable.
Hint: I've walked by this place forever and never stopped in because from the outside it is 1) not very noticeable and 2) doesn't look like a place I would normally go to. Well there you have it, I need to get out my box more often! Now this place is on my short list of Boulder favorites.
Check it out! Have a cupcake!

thank you, thank you, thank you for the vegan cupcake options!!
I am tempted continually by the cupcake goodness, but bc there is nothing on the menu that is vegan, I don't order from here very often. They have veggie chili.. how hard could it be to make it vegan? Make the cheese optional? Don't add milk? I'd order from here TONS more if this were an option.
Anyway, I love the concept of this place, love their presence on social media, love their delivery and late hours... but would love to be able to eat here! -

Oh Boulder Baked, you make the girl's night complete, the only way you could be better was if there was a half naked, muscley man with a bottle of wine under the crook of his arm delivering these fabulous cookies.
Nine stars for the kona cookie, but 100 million stars for the chocolate oatmeal peanut butter cookie. Mmmmmmmmm.
What does this all mean to you: eat here, now. They're open until 2am, what is your excuse?!?
Minus one star- the wait for delivery was one hour- it took them an hour and 20 minutes. And we bought 9 cookies- and paid $14 with tip for delivery. -

Awesome business idea for a college town.

Best late night snack ever. Fresh baked goodness available until the wee hours wins.

The owners of Boulder Baked came up with one hell of a brain child when they opened this shop. A place that makes delicious cookies, stays open at un-godly hours, and delivers them, along with optional milk? You can't ask for a better business venture in a pot smoking, partying college town like Boulder.
Not only is the general idea of Boulder Baked completely ingenious, their baked goods like their gourmet cookies, cupcakes and pies are wonderful, and served nice and warm and gooey, the way they should be. They also have different munchies like grilled cheese, but all I've ever tried are the pastries etc. Boulder Baked is a great place to grab a sweet snack at any time of the day or night, and a definite must-visit when in this Colorado town. -

Wow, I am so excited that I finally spent a weekend in Boulder so I could hit up Boulder Baked for some awesome cupcakes. This place has been on my Cupcake Quest list for ages, but their hours are really weird (i.e. open only late in the day), so I struggle to get there. However, this weekend I was in Boulder at night on Friday and Saturday evenings and I am so happy because the cupcakes I tried at Boulder Baked are the best ones I've had in Colorado. They are the perfect size with the perfect (i.e. not insane) amount of frosting! I tried a chocolate peanut butter on Friday night, which was really delicious, and a S'mores on Saturday night. I loved the marshmellow filling in the S'mores cupcake. The only thing it needed was slightly more graham cracker crumbs. The cake was dense but not too dense and it was definitely homemade. And for once the service, in a Boulder establishment, was super friendly.
Another benefit of this place is that while the cupcakes are amazing, they are in Boulder and the hours are inconvenient for me which means I can't get them too often. Yes that is a plus for me, I don't want to be able to go to my favorite local cupcake shop too often or I would not fit into my jeans! I can't wait to go back and try some of the fresh baked cookies and more of the cupcakes!!Listed in: The Boulder List, Denver Cupcakes!!

Boulder Baked has some real issues. I've eaten at Boulder Baked a few times, and each time the employees have treated me like shit. They are rude and obviously don't want to be there. They grudgingly take orders with dirty looks on their face. It always makes me feel unwelcome and as if I'm doing something wrong by ordering food from them. I've also ordered delivery from the on numerous occasions. They always say it will take about an hour, but 50% of the time it takes two hours. That's is just flat out ridiculous. 2 hours to deliver some damn cupcakes! And I only live few blocks away!!! (yes I am that lazy at times, but that isn't the issue here)
On a lighter note, there's one other thing about them that really pisses me off. They're actually closed on Mondays! I'm a student and Mondays are probably the only day of the week I'm in need of delicious baked goods because of the stress from school. I can't tell you how many times my roommates and I have said, "hey, let's get some cupcakes/cookies! That would taste so good right now," but it's Monday.
I would suggest only eating here if you feel like being treated like shit, or if you order from them having to wait absolutely unreasonable lengths of time, or if you want to be severely disappointed when all you want is a nice cupcake but then you realize it's Monday.
To sum up, Boulder Baked may serve reasonably good food, but their service is absolutely repugnant. I'm my opinion their service is so bad it's not even worth eating there. -

Went back to this spot after some Juanitas action the other night. This time there were so many cupcake choices I was a little overwhelmed. Sampled the peppermint-chocolate which was of course amazing. Went home with a couple for the weekend and I will say the chocolate with peanut butter frosting is bliss. If you haven't had a cupcake from this place yet...well, I feel sorry for you.
Oh and this place was packed with customers and with people behind the counter churning out fresh baked everything on a Saturday night and it was great! Totally friendly, very accomodating and just an all around cool spot.Listed in: Cupcakes People!

Excellent idea for a sweet shop in a college town. Bakes to order cookies! The cookies are good, not great, but the service is well below par. The girls behind the counter REALLY didn't want to there the day were visited.
Great idea, cookies are nothing special, other than they are freshly baked.
