My 2 cousins live nearby & have raved about this place since it opened. The first time I went in there I tried a cupcake and was very unimpressed! It was so dry! The cupcakes are also huge so you think you?re getting a big dessert for your money, but after one bite I didn?t want the rest. Plus, there?s so much cake it?s impossible to get a good cake-to-frosting ratio. At my cousins? urging, I gave the place a second try on another visit. I tried what I think they call cake truffles, but what I have always refer to as cake balls. Again, I was disappointed. I love to bake and have made better cupcakes and cake balls using boxed cake mixes & frosting from a can!
The 3rd chance for this place came when I helped my cousin pick up the pre-ordered cupcakes for my other cousin?s bridal shower. The order was incorrect and after dealing with a very rude woman behind the counter for about 10 mins we learned she was the owner and there was nothing she was willing to do to fix the problem. We ended up with a couple dozen horribly dry cupcakes that didn?t match our order.
Thankfully, this summer, my cousins came to visit me out on the East coast, & I had the pleasure of taking them to real bakeries & cupcake shops. They both agreed they won?t be going back to this joint!
Pros: The Brown and Pink Color Scheme is Cute
Cons: Everything Else!!!!
