I don't know what you other reviewers are smoking, but these are AWFUL cupcakes. I can bet you that $24.90 of the $25 they charge for each cupcake goes to the rent, because these cupcakes are nowhere near anywhere acceptable, let alone good.The RED VELVET, for crying shame, does not taste like red velvet. It's just chocolate, with none of the richness and moistness that makes red velvet what it is.

Yours failed at this too, Kisses.A very comprehensive fail for me. If you want to waste money on bad cupcakes, go ahead. I'm just gonna get myself a good old 菠蘿油.…Read More
