Baby Cakes = Awesome! I love love love loved it! I tried 4 of the cupcakes and all of them were fantastic. Note due to them not using proccessed sugar these are not as sweet as what you are probably used to but they are amazing! I actually think most cakes are too sweet anyway and it subtracts from the flavor of the cake and its ingredients.
1. Brownie Bite Cupcake with Chocolate frosting- Tasted like a brownie with loads of chocolate chips. The frosting was light and sweet with hints of cocoas. This was delicious but nothing extraordinary as it was what it was meant to be a simple brownie with frosting.
2. Lemon Bite Cupcake - I should have gotten a full size one of these. The cake was not sweet but zesty. The cake had a delicate crumb but was on the drier side which matched the very zesty lemon. I suspect real lemon peal was in this one. The frosting a light sweet lemon (almost like lemonade) that though was suposed to be butter cream esque was more of a glaze heaped ontop in a butter cream formation. This frosting was perfect with the zesty lemon cake. LOVED this one!
3. Pumpkin Cupcake - This was the moistest cake of them all. The cake was dense and rich but very cinamony with hints of nutmeg and allspice. I felt this cupcake was over seasoned as I really love the taste of pumpkin and the spices over powered the subtle pumpkin flavors. The icing tasted like a butter cream mixed with cream cheese and was delicious the sprinkle of cinamon ontop however over powered this. I think next time I'll try to call in the morning and ask they set aside one with no cinamon sprinkled on top.
4. Blondie Chocolate Chip cupcake with Chocolate Frosting - This was my favorite of them all. It was like a good chocolate chip muffin moist but crumbly and it tasted like a really good home made chocolate chip cookie. The cake had good vanilla and buttery notes (almost butterscotch) and the chocolate was a nice dark chocolate chip which made for a great contrast. The frosting was the same as the brownie which was sweet with hints of buttery goodness and coacoa powder. I absolutely loved this one.
I 100% recomend baby cakes cupcakes if you want more flavor and less sweet. The donuts were baked not fried so I avoided them as they didnt look like what I'd want in a donut. The breakfast breads/cakes however looked dense moist and delicious. I will try some of those next time.
I'm from middle America and am definitely working on the lard thing, I promise.
