Unbeknown to me, there's a cupcake shop in C's apartment complex. Via twitter @trailercakes I found out it's located in the bottom of an office building within walking distance of where he lives. I had been passing it for months, and hadn't even noticed. Am I disappointed in all of the cupcakes I could have been partaking in all this time? You betchya.
One Friday, my sweet tooth got the best of me and I was able to stop before they closed for the week to pick up some weekend treats for C and I do to a cupcake tasting. Similar to a wine tasting, but well, better. I picked out three different cakes, and dug in!
I will say, the attention to detail was very nice to see. The to-go box I was given was decorated very cutely with their logo, as well as this bit of advise inside.
First cupcake: peanut butter and jelly, with an added peanut butter cookie.
Second cupcake: red velvet cake, so hard to resist as it's one of my favorite flavors anywhere.
Third cupcake: Chocolate peanut butter, with a chocolate grenache and a Mini-Reese's on top. Chocolate + peanut butter = always a great option.
The middle of the peanut butter and jelly one was pretty awesome.
I think my favorite was the red-velvet. It had the perfect amount of frosting, and it was delicious. All of the flavors were great, and there are many more options I would like to try! Take a look at their site here, they offer a wide, unique variety. I will be heading back for sure! Next time I might not share with C ;)
Happy Friday everyone, have a fabulous weekend!
Thanks for sharing this, I frequently go to the metroplex and have never seen a place solely dedicated to baking cupcakes anywhere. I will need to stop by this place, they do look delicious!
