cupcake tasting

i love cupcakes. i know they are super trendy right now but i have always had a love for them. even as a kid i never wanted a cake, always cupcakes. i had a pretty specific request for my mom to make for every birthday, funfetti cake with pink frosting and sprinkles. we all know how i feel about Sprinkles , 11 days until my next one, just in case you were wondering.

but since Sprinkles isn't something i can always have, i had to find a substitute to get me by. Carefree Patisserie, is located in this tiny building in valley junction. their cupcake selection is incredible, they have a menu of 101 flavors to choose from.

my friends and i have developed a fun tradition that we do for special occasions. we get one cupcake per person, divide it into quarters and then we each get to sample all the flavors. after trying all of the different varieties we rank our favorites in order from least to most.

the flavors featured below are: raspberry malt, margarita, muddy farmer, triple chocolate and summer melon. as you can see they have a good mix of traditional and fun flavors to choose from.







here is my breakdown of least to most favorite from our last cupcake tasting:

5. summer melon
4. margarita
3. triple chocolate
2. raspberry malt
1. muddy farmer
