Today would normally be Heavenly Delight Wednesday, but since I had a couple cupcakes leftover from Monday's St. Louis trip, I decided to focus on those and pick back up with HD next week.
And so (drumroll, please), the Summer Crush cupcake from The Cup.
The best word I can come up with for this cupcake is "Wow." Orange cake with orange buttercream frosting, vanilla filling and a little crown of vanilla frosting with an orange Gummy Bear perched on top. When it comes to orange or lemon, I like subtle flavor, and this orange hit the mark. The frosting was phenomenal. The touch of filling was a thrilling surprise (just ask Camille how startled he was when I shouted to him upon finding it), and I quickly decided this one was my favorite from our birthday trip. Our timing was just right, too -- Labor Day was likely the last day for this one, judging by its name.
Tune in next Wednesday for the next Heavenly Delight delight!
You're killing me here, Mandy! This sounds soooo good! (Heck, they ALL sound sooooo good!) A person on a low-fat, low-sugar diet should not be reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteI need to switch gears and get back to the fat-free, zero-calorie scrapbooking blog. I'm going to start working on that!
