Topping the list is Simply Divine Cupcakes. This cupcake bakery, which has a stall in Indianapolis City Market at 222 E. Market St., also operates a cupcake truck, from which it sells its nearly 100 varieties of signature cupcakes. Boasting five stars out of 22 reviews on Yelp, it is the highest-rated affordable food truck in Indianapolis. (Visit the business's website for more information on its truck.)

Yelp can tell you a thing or two more about Simply Divine Cupcakes.

"Simply Divine Cupcakes was born from a love of sharing good food with friends and family," according to the business's Yelp profile. "It began as a small booth at local farmers markets and grew to include a cupcake truck, a small retail shop, and wedding and event catering."

2. Nicey Treat

Next up is frozen pop shop Nicey Treat. Nicey Treat — which has a brick-and-mortar location at 655 Virginia Ave., as well as an ice cream truck and a "Nicecycle" ice cream motorcycle — offers ice pops in flavors like mango ginger, toasted coconut and dark chocolate sea salt, and with 4.5 stars out of 41 reviews on Yelp, it has proved to be a local favorite for those looking for a budget-friendly option. (See its website for more information.)

Yelper Anna D., who reviewed Nicey Treat on July 30, 2019, wrote, "Love this for an afternoon dessert!"
