Salted Caramel from Yellow Leaf

I was very excited when Mr Shuck told me he got a present for me last week. I knew he was downtown and was hoping for a Yellow Leaf cupcake. I got 2! One was the Chocolate Joy, an old favorite. The other was a new flavor for me, Salted Caramel. Yellow Leaf rarely disappoints [...]
I loves me some Cupcake Luv

Over the weekend, we went out to eat lunch at the Georgetown Liquor Company. Afterward, we headed over to the Georgetown Saturday Market. My goal: Cupcake Luv. These cupcakes are sold only at 7 lucky farmer’s markets throughout the Seattle area. I should have made a note of the flavors available that day. I chose [...]
Junior Mint continued

I wasn’t really thrilled with the Junior Mint cupcakes overall, but others seemed to enjoy it. I started out with Cook’s Illustrated’s dark chocolate cupcake recipe. I think I’m going to try a new chocolate recipe because I think this one turns out a bit dry. While it was baking, I whipped up the marshmallow [...]
“J” is for Junior Mint

Junior Mint is in process. It doesn’t seem to be going that well. Mini chocolate cupcakes are cooling. Marshmallow mint filling is chilling in the fridge. Some dark chocolate ganache is cooling on the counter. The cake seems a little dry. I wasn’t sure how much peppermint extract to put in the filling. My ganache [...]

So, day three in San Diego took us to Cupcakes Squared. This shop is located in a strip mall on Voltaire Street. The shop was pretty small and nothing special. No cute decor. There was a cafe table in front of the store for those who wanted to “eat in”. There was baking equipment visible, [...]

First, I have to say that I really like the Portland food cart thing. I especially love the pod of food carts located at Skidmore and N Mississippi. It’s a vegetarian’s dream! We had a delicious tofu curry at the Ruby Dragon. There was also a falafel cart, vegetarian sushi, pizza, and others that I [...]

Divine Bites is a little cupcake stand located within Divine Consign, a furniture consignment store on Main St in Vancouver, Washington. I have no photos because I deleted them with the photos from Hello, Cupcake. We got to the shop right before closing, so only had a couple of choices. I decided on “Lip Licking [...]

Hello, Cupcake! has a very cute shop tucked in between an arty shop (BKB) and Hot Rod Hot Dogs on Pacific Ave in Tacoma. They have cute cupcake ornaments, Cakespy artwork, licorice pigs and lots of Hammond’s candies for sale. They also have cupcakes! The flavors available were pretty standard: vanilla/vanilla, chocolate/chocolate with sprinkles, [...]
Saint Cupcake Deluxe in Portland
Posted in Miscellaneous Bakeries, tagged Carrot, chocolate, coconut on May 4, 2010 | 1 Comment »
Saint Cupcake Deluxe was giving away free mini cupcakes so we decided to go there instead of plain old Saint Cupcake. Also, why go for plain, when you can have deluxe? The shop was very cute, but tiny. It is tucked into the alcove of a trendy home decor shop called Noun. Apparently the cupcakes [...]
