IO: Mandatory CUPCAKE discussion
I'm trolling around NYC trying them one by one.

It really hurts me when I bite into a dry one. It is as if somebody stabbed me right in the gut.

well I suppose if it's mandatory...

Cupcakes are alright I guess... I'm kind of more a fan of cake though, cupcakes usually leave me disappointed....

There's a decent cupcake shop in my neighborhood, and I think it's a small chain in the Seattle area - Cupcake Royale

They're good once in a while, but I don't think they're good enough to be worth $2 a pop. I should just start baking my own.

Cupcakes

I just made root beer float ones last week, they were a hit with everyone who tried them.

Schmeg, where in Indy is that? Is it close to anything I might know? I don't get down there much.

It is near Broad Ripple....56th and Illinois. It is a cute little shop.

I love the fact that we had cupcakes for dinner last night.

I love the Red Velvet Elvis cupcakes they have.

Cupcakes.

The hard part is when you get one that's too tall to bite both frosting AND cake at the same time. Do you bite the bottom first so that you get a bigger frosting-to-cake ratio for the next bite? Or do you satisfy your immediate needs and go for the frosting off the bat? I usually choose the former.

Yes! I always eat the bottom part first so I can have the rest with lots of frosting. Great. Now I'm craving cupcakes!
