I'm craving something sweet whilst taking a ride on my bike. I stroll up to Texas Station, fully aware of their bakery and food rep. I decide to take a couple sweets to go for the familia and I. Grabbed a vanilla cupcake, a strawberry cheese cake, chocolate peanut butter cupcake, and a Dutch Apple pie.
Ordered a cold green tea and took a seat at the Starbuck's next door. I attempt to take a forkful of vanilla cupcake. My plastic fork bent. Literally. Not joking. This cake has to be days old. At least. The frosting is hard and has no lightness or fluff. It's a mound of ground down sugar, assaulting the tongue. I was dissatisfied. I had to try something else, hoping for a fluke cupcake. Nope. The cheesecake is warm and has the same artificial flavor as a jolly rancher. The Dutch Apple pie was, at one point, dropped somewhere. And I don't even want to try the other cupcake. I'm definitely not giving any of these to the family. These go right in the trash outside in the parking lot. It is actually impossible to believe that these were made in house at the Grand Cafe. Such a disappointment. I preceded to order a mini vanilla scone and a cake pop at the Starbuck's. Never disappoints.
