God wants me to stop eating cupcakes.
Two segments on tv today about cupcakes that I've had to watch with the sound off, because a provider called and would not stop talking about trivial stuff. I'd feel better about it if it were a client who was in need or something, but this really makes me sad.
I think it's a sign? No more cupcakes? I swear I was not this obsessed about cupcakes before I was pregnant, and now I have between 2-5 a month.
A better sign would have been to fail my 1-hr gestational diabetes test.
Re: God wants me to stop eating cupcakes.
Oh, and if your obsession is pg-related, what's my excuse? I swear, I would eat cupcakes daily if I didn't live at least 20 miles away from these bakeries.
It's the Cupcakery in Dublin. It is my opinion that it has a combination of good cake and good frosting -- a lot of places are either/or on that.
They have a few options. They have usually about 5 flavors of cake daily and I think about 5 or so frostings. They feature their "cupcake bar", where people can decorate their own cupcakes and add fun candy toppings and such. I think it's a really cute idea for kids. Being more of a minimalist myself, I go for option two, where I pick out a flavor of cake and frosting, and they do it for me with no toppings.
Just a cupcake with frosting is $2. If you do the "bar", they weigh it, so it can go upwards of $3, I think.
Julie you and all this cupcake talk are PURE evil
I obviously mean that in a nice way...
What flavors/frostings do you recommend?
They generally have white, chocolate, red velvet, dark chocolate.... something else? Frostings - chocolate, vanilla (a few different colors), cream cheese...
I wish they had more variety, but they have a good reason why they don't. They are more of a bakery for events and such, that just decided that they might as well have a store-front for while they are there baking anyway. They purposely choose not to keep a huge stock in the store, because they want it to be fresh every day.
I would say if you just want up to 6 cupcakes, just head in and see what they have. If you wanted a dozen, pre-order and they have a lot more options.
