Cupcakes
I am a fan. A big one. I am one of these odd ladies that does not love or even really like chocolate. Odd I know. But cake… That is a whole other story. Love the stuff.
I have been trying out as many cupcake places as I can find whenever and where ever I go. I started like most people with hearing about the sex in the city girls loving them, Oprah and of course Sprinkles. I have been to LA and done THE Sprinkles. These is even one here in Scottsdale. I have been in London and tried several paces there. I must say until this morning No other cupcakes have compared. Honestly I have not been to That many places and I refuse to pay $4. Really. Starbucks and Sprinkles has bloated our minds to think it is OK to spend $4 on a cup of coffee or a cupcake. I am not sure it is all worth it.
We were up Way to early this morning so I thought I would search around for a cupcake place that was local and could kick some tasty ass. Sprinkles is good but not great. I found that The Coffee was in Gilbert. I It just happened to be on Cupcake Wars on the Food Network. I was not really impressed with her Duff tobacco cupcakes but hey. Local. Famous ish. Lets give it a try.
OMG!!! De Lic i OUS!! David and I had a Strawberry cupcake.
They were cute, despite being pink, and covered with the recent fad of edible glitter. I hate butter cream frosting but this was light airy and with a strong yummy strawberry taste. It really did not taste at all like the heavy greasy stuff I know as butter cream. The cupcake it self was wonderful too, with small bits of strawberries.
I think I found my cupcake place and I think I am going to have to be at the gym more often.
