Betsy at work gave me a coupon for a free cupcake (with purchase) from the Barnes and Noble cafe, so I ventured to University Village today to check it out. Apparently they are provided by the Cheesecake Factory. I was having a skinny vanilla latte, so I decided to take the all vanilla route and ordered a vanilla cupcake. (The other options were Chocolate Fudge and Red Velvet.)

Maybe my cupcake taste is becoming a little too snooty, but this is another one that I didn’t finish. The butter cream icing was horrible: grainy, overly sweet and with an odd artificial taste. The cake was fairly moist and vanilla-y, but also tasted a bit off. I ate 2 bites probably and left the rest on my plate. I’m glad I didn’t pay for this. Rating: ♥
