There is a lot of hype about Prairie Girl and it even comes up on lists that include it as some of the best cupcake places in Toronto. When we were visiting Toronto we figured we would swing by and try this place for an after lunch treat.
We ordered the weekly special mini-cupcakes which were "Chocolate Monkey" and "Lemon Coconut". (2 of each).
We were disappointed that the cupcakes were not moist and actually on the dry side. It was almost as they were not fresh.
The lemon in the lemon coconut in the centre was good. The frosting was a nice butter cream with toasted coconut. The cupcake body was not fresh.
In terms of the chocolate, it was a cute mini with a candy banana slice on top. The butter cream had a slight banana flavour, but the chocolate cupcake was again, dry and pretty much all that was tasted was the flavour of chocolate.
Overall, it was not what we were expecting, but we would give them another chance when we are in the area.
