| - Oh, cupcakes. Such a trend right now. And such a hit-or-miss trend at that. I have visited many a cupcake boutique and left disappointed. That is, until I gave A Cookie & A Cupcake a try.
One of the elements of the cupcakes that won me over right away was the moistness. 95% of the other cupcake boutiques have served me horribly dry cupcakes, which entirely ruins the experience. You don't have to worry about that happening here.
Another feature I was impressed by is the size of the cupcakes. Meaning, they're actually cupcake-sized instead of mini-cake-sized. Quantity does not equal quality, and with something as decadent as a cupcake should be, you want something on the smaller-side. AC&AC's cupcakes were perfectly sized...in fact, if you were in the mood to be extra gluttonous, you could probably eat two in one sitting!
They offer some fun flavors and some classics. I was able to sample the apple, signature, and PB lovers. The apple was my favorite, as it was the most flavorful and most unique. The PB lovers was a HUGE disappointment because it wasn't actually peanut-buttery enough. If it's called PB lovers, I expect a PB overload. The signature cupcake was outstanding as well, although I did not enjoy the vanilla custard inside of it.
Definitely a solid choice for cupcakes in the NE Ohio area!
