So, you think you can cupcake?
I was on a California adventure last week, which resulted in at stop at 2 of Beverly Hills’ famous cupcakeries: Sprinkles and Crumbs Bake Shop. The almighty Oprah raved about Sprinkles and now they’re world renowned. Crumbs originated in Manhattan and are known for their unique size (a cupcake & a half). They might be super popular, but are they really that great?
Sprinkles is nothing to write home about. I found them all sugar and no substance. They are the Krispy Kreme of cupcakes.
Crumbs, on the other hand, definitely has substance. They make some damn tasty cupcakes (we opted for the minis, so we could try more flavours). Their frostings aren’t too sugary and flavours are easily identifiable. Definitely the better cupcakery of the 2.
BUT…I know that there are WAY BETTER cupcakes out there…and I challenge you, dear cupcake bakers of Toronto, to show us cupcake enthusiasts what you’re (err, your cupcakes) are made of!
