The Cupcake Store

Worth visiting!

A review of this place: Pretty darn good!  — 10 months ago

I’m a baker, specifically cakes, so I can be very critical of food. While the cupcakes here certainly weren’t perfect, they are something I would go back for if I was going to be in town longer.

A huge perk is the wide variety of flavors, so there is something for every palate. I loved the carmella and wasn’t a big fan of the lemon drop. But since everyone’s tastes are different there should be something to please!

I liked the mini sized cupcakes, too. Great way to sample new flavors!!

I saw a complaint about price in a previous post, but to me it seemed right in line with every other higher end bakery I know. Sure, you can get cheap cupcakes at the Safeway bakery—filled with artificial ingredients and preservatives, made by people barely paid more than minimum wage. I’d always prefer to pay a little more for quality ingredients!
