I've traveled for a living and have had a chance to try several cupcakes around the state and country (and have a 3 year old and hubby with a sweet tooth) - Yummy cupcakes beats them all! It's no accident the other LA cupcake shops have now started carrying similar flavors - of course, never as good!! \r

They have a great variety of flavors; If you're a fan of lemon cake their lemon tart is to die for. If you crave that old southern taste, try their Red Velvet - it's truly a taste of heaven! If chocolate is your food of choice, the old school ( a la hostess cupcake - but with chocolate ganache & fresh whipped cream), truffle, chocolate ganache, and malt cupcakes will knock your socks off. Of course, their martini line is always a triumph at my dinner parties - my friends actually fight over the margarita cupcakes.\r

For those who think they're too expensive, all I have to say is who stocks 80 baking ingredients in their pantry, want to spend hours whipping cream, making frosting and cupcakes from scratch (all their ingredients are visible - no boxes here), and then spend 1/2 an hour cleaning a dirty kitchen - I'll gladly pay the $2.50 - it's a deal for a beautiful and great tasting cupcake!
Pros: Great flavors, Service, and ambience
Cons: Still waiting for seating outside.
