  • This is one of the places I do not get at all. Why would anyone put out such a poor product? Why would anyone buy these? Probably because it's convenient for those of us working in the financial district. Besides location, there's absolutely nothing going for these cupcakes at all. Trust me, I'm a cupcake connoisseuse. I blog about cupcakes. The primary problem that I have with this (and a few other establishments, like The Cupcake Shoppe) is that I find it's incredibly LAZY to slap different flavoured frostings on top of the same 2-4 cake bases. When all you do and make is cupcakes, you need to develop unique cake bases for every flavour. Or use one cake base for 2 flavours tops (3 if they contain different fillings). This is just lazy. It shows zero pride in their craft. It makes the cupcakes boring. It's a waste of time and an absolute waste of calories. A good cupcake starts with a good cake base, and real flavour variety is what makes cupcakes. I'd rather take a 30 minute trip out to the ends of the city for a truly good quality cupcake made with effort than have one of these conveniently located under my office. Besides that, the cupcakes taste below average at best. They are often dry, they are waaay too sweet, and they don't have much flavour, except the banana, perhaps. Other Yelpers have commented that there's too much frosting - that, I don't think is a problem. It's necessary to make the cupcakes look pretty. I do think they are too over the top at Prairie Girl with the frosting, but no one's obligated to eat all the frosting that comes on a cupcake. What I do is that I'll take an initial bite in - frosting and cake - and then peel the cupcake liner off the cupcake. Then I turn the cupcake sideways or upside down on the liner (depending on how good it is) and either eat the cake with a little bit of frosting or eat the cake alone. But they do overcompensate the luckluster ingredients with way too much sugar, which results in cupcakes that have no distinct flavour besides overkill sweetness. Just don't bother!!!
