Day 14: Yes, the Cupcakes matter..

Sugar Mountain Cupcakes

My college classmate recommended Sugar Mountain cupcakes (http://www.sugarmountainbakeshoppe.com/). I will start with thank goodness I just found out about this place and that its almost within walking distance. I have to be honest, I am not as much of a sweet person as others. But I do a cupcake and a piece of cake here and there.

Going in, I braced myself for really not liking these cupcakes. Instead of being just cake, they each have a unique filling inside. I thought they were going to be unbearable sweet and I could not finish one. Instead I was really pleasantly surprised.

I bought two cupcakes. A raspberry Lemonade and a Mango Cheesecake. I ate the Rasberry Lemonade almost as soon as I got home. The cake portion was amazingly very light and airy. It was it had a distinct tart to it. This made the filling which was sweet but not overpowering. When eaten with the cake, it is a perfect balance.

 

Raspberry Lemonade

I wish I took a picture of the why these guys are constructed. Its amazing to behold. Everything is about balance.  Perfect amount of cake to just enough frosting. Balance between Tart and sweet.

When I eat the Mango Cheesecake one, I'll open it up and take some anatomy pictures haha.

Thanks again Jenna. Thank Goodness I have two hockey games today...
