INK's office manager was given a large box of assorted Bluebird Cafe cupcakes from her "secret admirer." Hey, gotta love the mystery guy.
The flat, broad cupcakes--red velvet, coconut, chocolate, vanilla and carrot--look like what you'd find at a school bake sale, but two to three times larger. . . and for $2.25 instead of fifty cents. Some had sprinkles or coconut flakes, all were heavily frosted. Because they were right up against each other, it was difficult to grab one without getting frosting on your fingers.
INK opted for the red velvet with cream cheese frosting. The cake had a delicate crumb, was moist, and not too sweet. The overabundant frosting was almost salty at first, but became sweeter with successive bites. A fine cupcake, but not particularly memorable for INK. She had high expectations after hearing others rave. [It's difficult to write in third person this much!]
Dainties is still #1.
