My sister Nancy and I actually went to the Sprinkles in Fashion Island, Newport Beach. When we arrived there the line to go inside was LONG!...but we were on a mission to taste them so we stoically waited about 10mins...argh Finally we managed to wedge ourselves inside...we purchased 4 of them to share/eat..(YEAH!) We promptly found some seating nearby and unboxed our treasures! LOL We both agreed the Red Velvet cupcake was the best! Very moist cake and the cream cheese topping was excellent!!! (I'm going back this week to buy MORE for ME !) 2nd being the milk chocolate w/choc sprinkles, very moist and tasty cake with a wonderful milk choc topping and liberal choc sprinkles! ...next the strawberry,again moist cake and the icing was delicious and very strawberry in flavor!!! and our LAST and I won't ever buy again was the coconut...too dry and grainy tasting (they should have given them away for free just for standing in line even! LOL)...VERY dissappointing indeed as I'm a coconut lover...*sighs*\r
I'm abit aghast at the price of a SINGLE cupcake...hmm . The fact that I have to buy a dozen to get a lower price doesn't make me happy....tho dammit...that red velvet cupcake is quite tempting indeed! I see that they produce a chai cupcake among many other yummy flavors...So I definately can say I'll be back there to buy and sample more! They don't make all the flavors everyday, so you'll have to check out the flavors avail for the day your there. One note...if you bake at all...then do go ahead and bake your own cupcakes...tedious as it can be...but if you're stuck on time...drive to Sprinkles and buy, buy, buy! They're mostly YUMMY, YUMMY, and oh...YUMMY!
Pros: adequate parking, prompt service
Cons: small cupcakes for the price
