Babycakes - San Diego

Babycakes - San Diego
Seriously folks, these are some mighty fine cupcakes! Babycakes in San Diego is not vegan or celiac friendly. They create cupcake flavors that you will not find elsewhere in San Diego or the USA. They are not strange combinations or odd names. They have looked past the butter cream trend (YAY) and are bringing back traditional frosting, sugar frosting. It tastes more like a flavored dense, fresh whipped cream. It's not just the frosting that sets them apart, it's the inside of the actual cake. Most cupcakes have an incredibly moist center, which is the same flavor of the cake, yet more concentrated. Think a raspberry cupcake, which has a raspberry jam in the center. It is a most delicious surprise. Unfortunately, they do not ship their cupcakes. Try the Pistachio Cupcake, it is soooooooo good!

Winchell's

February 21, 2011
This place is home to the cake donut. You will find plenty in the LA area. The best way to eat a Winchell's is to eat it immediately, even if that means while driving down the road. Please note, ESS is not encouraging you to eat your donut while driving. You could have them shipped, but why would you? They would not be warm or fresh.
