…tc, etc. But I have to be honest…I simply was not impressed with her cupcakes like I thought I would be. They weren’t horrible, just not exciting and amazing. The flavors were very reserved and honestly kind of boring (much like the small, two-table storefront!). We chose Vanilla, Chocolate Marshmallow, Chai Latte and Cinnamon Sugar.

I just thought it was too cute not to get a few pictures of it, despite having to use a camera phone in the dead of night. So not the best quality, but really, how cute is this??
