Apparently, cupcakes were a "thing" a few years ago.. Kinda like pomegranate, kale, cauliflower pizza and Sketcher Shape Ups. If that's true, call me dated because I'll never let my love of cupcakes be a trend in my life. No. My soul is composed of like.. 40% cupcake.. Only to be shared with pizza, sushi and nap time.
Caketini is a cute shop in San Tan Village that I have passed by on numerous occasions and finally decided to frequent to get some sweet treats to celebrate my husbands 30 birthday.
The customer service is great and the gals were happy to answer my questions about flavors and price. The presentation is very charming and there was a nice selection of flavors available... I did go at 10:30 am when they opened.
To me, the prices are reasonable for the size the cupcake-- however, the flavors were lacking to my disappointment.
I selected the salted caramel, red velvet, cookie dough and lemon raspberry. The cookie dough is great and is really like having two desserts in one. The lemon raspberry had no lemon or raspberry touch at all. Which was quite disappointing because the combo could have been amazing, had it any taste. Red velvet icing was great! You can taste the cream cheese and the cake itself was just the right density. As for the salted caramel.. No flavor. Nothing. Like eating a fluffy cloud. So if you're into that -- go for the salted caramel.
Overall... I was just not impressed with the flavors. All other details were on point. I wish I could have liked Caketini more
