Today I went out with some fellow bloggers in search of some cupcake goodness, courtesy of Cupcake & Co. The store is run by two sisters and all of their recipes use organic ingredients. We'll see what the other girls say, but overall I wasn't very impressed - the service was slow and a bit disorganized (no excuses, we were the only ones there) and the cupcakes themselves were dry & dense. Leesa's cupcakes win hands down! One of the owners said it was because they were cold and had just come out of the fridge, but I think it's a French thing - a lot of the cakes/muffins here tend to be a lot drier/heavier than we'd like them to be in the US. The cream cheese frostings however were absolutely delicious - and I do have high hopes for the mini-cheesecake I purchased for dessert tonight. (As a side note, that is how I know I'm not feeling 100% - I have a non-eaten cheesecake sitting in the fridge! lol)
