While never understanding the whole cake pop and cupcake trend that seems to be growing, I do enjoy a cupcake on occasion. They are a nice treat in a small package. Mind Over Batter seems to have perfected the cupcake. I knew about this place before because I used to work with one of the owners at a previous job, but did not decide to check it out until I purchased a groupon.
I think between my husband and I we have tried at least eight different flavors of cupcakes and all have been very good. My favorite flavors are the Pink Cadillac which is a strawberry cupcake with a buttercream frosting. So delicious and moist. I am a sucker for a strawberry cupcake anyways and this one is amazing. I could eat these everyday. The frosting is a little heavy for my taste just because of how sugary frosting tends to be. I could do with about half the amount of frosting that is put on each cupcake but it does taste really good. The toasted coconut cupcake is also one of my favorites. Super moist white cake with frosting and toasted coconut flakes on top. I am practically drooling thinking about it. My husbands favorites are the Reese with a spoon which is a chocolate cupcake with a peanut butter frosting and chocolate peanut butter candies on top. He also enjoys the red velvet cupcake. I have had a few of the others but do not like them as much as the strawberry and coconut. I am not a fan of the chocolate chips in the chocolate cake batter, but that's just me.
I think the price for each cupcake is fair just going off of what some other bakeries charge per cupcake. It is under $3 per cupcake and I think less than $2.50 per cake pop, which are also fun, but the frosting is way too sweet for me on these. I have only tried these once.
I am all for supporting a local business and the owners of Mind Over Batter are great people. I wish I could come here more often but my recent consumption of too many cupcakes left me with pants that are too tight!! I will have to come back once I have lost a few pounds to try the lemon cupcake, which also looks amazing!
