Good to be Queen



The other day I was surprised by my man who brought home a box of cupcakes from The Queen Bee Bakery Co. Two women that work with my man so thoughtfully decided to share their recent delivery from The Queen Bee. Of course there were no complaints from me! I have to say right off these have moved up the list to one of my favs! The box contained six mini cupcakes- red velvet, caramel, coconut cream, key lime, strawberry, and chocolate3. They all had filled centers which I have to say made me nervous but they were so good! The key lime and strawberry were probably my top favorites. The icing was nice and light, not too sweet, and you could taste real strawberry and lime. The caramel was so rich that you could taste the butter which I am sure was used in making it. And the red velvet actually had a nice flavor which is surprising because I have yet to be impressed by any red velvet. The Queen Bee does not have a store front yet but can be visited at Tai Pan Trading which I may just become their newest frequent shopper! The sprinkle score....do I dare give it a 5...I think so especially since I am still thinking of them!

So Cupcake is a Truckin'


Recently my man's work had 'Take Your Kid to Work' day which included a visit from So Cupcake's cupcake truck. I could not pass up the opportunity to finally check it out even though I have already reviewed their cupcakes some time ago. It was great fun pulling up and seeing this pink truck in front of my man's office. They sell their full and mini sized cupcakes along with ice cream. I so enjoyed walking up to the truck and ordering my strawberry cupcake. The cupcakes still taste the same but the truck added another element to the experience.
