Cupcakes Pt. 2

After an eventful and delicious dinner and dessert at Chris Santos' "Stanton Social" for my mother's birthday (which I will talk about in my next post), we went for second dessert at this place called "Sugar Sweet Sunshine" (I know, it's a really masculine name), however, going past the name I got to try some fantastic cupcakes which I am a huge fan of (which you would know if you have been reading my blog from the beginning).

I was pretty full because a lot of small plates can really fill you up eventually. Having said that, I still had room for two very different cupcakes. The first of the two was a pistachio cupcake. Nothing you would accept from a savory ingredient, a great amount of sugar and incredible icing which lent some more sweetness to the flavor of the pistachio which was as well quite prominent.

The second of the two was a red velvet cupcake. You may be thinking: "how is this unique?" Let me tell you, the Chantilly consistency of the chocolate icing on this cupcake made this the best red velvet I've ever had. Not only that, besides the fact that it was a red cupcake with cocoa flavor, there was a huge burst of almond flavor which made it massively unique.

Yes, I was hesitant going into a store called "Sugar Sweet Sunshine," though, that's not going to keep me from having a second dessert. Even though I felt like my masculinity was depleting every minute I was in there, it was so worth it.
