Traveling Cupcakes


In addition to baking my own cupcakes I love to try other people's sweet creations.  This week we (as in hubby and I) tried some traveling cupcakes from Sugar Babies Cupcakery.  We discovered this treat at Los Al Din Din A Go Go which is just down the street from us every Tuesday night from 5:30 to 9 PM.  This another thing I like, food trucks.  No longer does mobile food have to come from a "roach coach" they are gourmet!

Anyways, back to the cupcakes.


We got a 4-pack for $5.00.  Like the name implies Sugar Babies Cupcakery serves mini-cupcakes!  We got the following:

1.  With All My Heart - Semi-sweet chocolate cake, dark chocolate mousse frosting, dark chocolate candy heart. (Husband ate this one before I could take a picture)
2.  Sugar Baby -Vanilla cake, rich chocolate buttercream frosting, white chocolate candy heart.
3.  Strawberries 'n' Cream - Moist vanilla cake with a sweet strawberry champagne cream cheese frosting.
4.  Red Rose - Our rich, classic red velvet cake, sumptuous cream cheese frosting*

I really liked that the easily identifiable pink pastry box color was on the inside of the box instead of the outside.  I also liked that they were minis and were in cute little plastic cups.  Hubby had the "With All My Heart" and the "Sugar Baby" and I had the "Red Rose" and "Strawberries 'n Cream".  My favorite was the strawberry cupcake (I'm kinda picky when it comes to red velvet - see previous posts).  I really liked the frosting it was really really good and may make an appearance on an upcoming cupcake I make :) . The cake portion was a little different, it's not one I would want to eat on its own but with the frosting it was better.  Overall, you should probably get some if they ever stop by near  you.
