| - After catching up with Dr. Shelly V. for lunch, we took a walk and popped in here for cupcake desserts. The cupcakes were reasonably priced and the flavors were creative.
Now, to be fair, I just had some really amazing cupcakes in Oakland today. That may bias my review for these that I had over a month ago. Anyway, they were still good. However, the frosting was too "ganache-ey." That said, people who like "ganache-ey" cupcakes will not be disappointed.
I forgot the name, but I got a mint-chocolate one. There is a little dollop of mint frosting on top of the chocolate-frosted chocolate cupcake. In that mint dollop was an Andes candy. What was disappointing to me, and at no fault of Sweet Impressions, was that the minty part fell off the top of my cupcake and onto the street. Now, I don't follow that "5 second rule" anymore because I regularly find used condoms, tampon applicators, and men's underwear on the ground near my car in Oakland, CA. I am pretty sure that Madison, WI is not nearly as dirty as Oakland. However, my frosting did fall on the ground that was in front of a frat house...so I still didn't take any chances.
