| - I read about their cupcake happy hour (Wed. 4-5pm and Sat. 1-2pm) where their cupcakes are only $1 (down from $2.50). I thought it was the perfect way to try out a local bakery, so I bought a half dozen assorted cupcakes (they had 9 flavors that day).
First, they're regular size (not as big as Sprinkles or Let Them Eat Cake). Second, I wouldn't call them fancy (these aren't gourmet flavors--they taste like box mixes, and I don't mean that to sound insulting). At all. Read Sarah I's review from 2011 for the same impression.
All in all, we were disappointed by slightly dry cakes and frostings that were bland (you know that slightly waxy taste?). The lemon cake flavor was good, red velvet disappointed, salted caramel was pretty good, vanilla was not... The best was the chocolate one. It was rich, moist, and had tons of chocolate flavor.
Don't get these for a special event--instead, pick them up for your kid's soccer team.
