I really wanted to like this place. It's been about a year since I've been and they have pretty good reviews, so I thought an revisit would be good. I did go early in the morning as suggested.
I went because I found out they have cake pops. I have come to the conclusion that I just don't like cake pops. So I won't judge theirs.
They used to have pretty basic cupcakes, but now they're playing with flavors so I chose Strawberry Cheesecake, Marble, Mint Cookie Crunch and Red Velvet.
Their frosting is pretty good. It's a little sweet, but it's extremely light and airy. A nice touch.
Strawberry Cheesecake: The WORST cupcake I have ever had in my life! I started with the frosting. It was okay. Then I bit into the cupcake, which had some weird strawberry jam inside or maybe it was under baked.. not sure. At this point, the cupcake is reminding me more of biscuits with jam. Towards the bottom of the cupcake is a layer of graham cracker crumbs. Kind of felt like eating sand. The texture and the taste are just awful!
Mint Cookie Crunch: 5 stars for the frosting. Awesome! Like a thin mint. The chocolate cake underneath brought me back to the Nutella cupcake I had had a year earlier. They really need to work on their chocolate cake. It's pretty bad. You definitely wouldn't want it without frosting.
Marble: Okay minus the nasty chocolate cake.
Red Velvet: Cake is ok. Frosting tastes like pure cream cheese. I literally took a chip and treated it as a dip.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. No more Caked for me!
