Indulgence Cupcakery


All of us outside Indulgence Cupcakery
Today we went to a place called Indulgence Cupcakes. It is in Haddonfield, NJ. The site is called http://www.indulgencecupcakery.com/. I was excited to go there because by looking at the website I had thought that it looked really good. Once I walked in there I was surprised to see only cupcakes that were a little bit bigger than mini cupcakes. Each cupcake was either $1.50 or $1.60. On their site it said they made 20 to 30 cupcakes a day. It didn't seem like that much to me. They had Brownie, Apple Crumb, Vanilla Chocolate, Cannoli, Red Velvet, etc. I got Cannoli, my brother and sister got Vanilla Chocolate, my other brother got Red Velvet, and my other brother got Apple Crumb. The people were very friendly and the cupcakes were decorated nicely, but they were cold like they had been in the refrigerator. They had been made that morning according to the website, and they didn't taste very fresh. Also I thought that the frosting was more watery than creamy. I couldn't really put my finger on it but I wasn't one of the best cupcakes I had ever had.

Sandcastle Cupcakes

My family with our cupcakes.
         Towards the beginning of September my family went to a waterpark in Ocean City. After we were done we stopped at a cupcake store. It was called Sandcastle Cupcakes. It looked really good! But the positive soon turned into a negative when we placed our order.The employees weren't very friendly and the cupcakes weren't very good. I got a red velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting. Since these cupcakes were made with all natural ingrediants the red velvet looked brown. It was supposedly going to taste the same but I thought it tasted like chocolate. If I wanted chocolate then I would have ordered the chocolate cupcake. The cream cheese frosting tasted just like someone had plopped some cream cheese on a "red velvet" cupcake. At first I thought it was just my cupcake, but then none of my other sibling liked it much either.  If you are ever in Ocean City I don't think that you would want to visit Sandcastle Cupcakes.

East End Cupcakes

Me and my siblings eating our cupcakes!
 Over summer break we took a vacation to Maine. It was beautiful there!! Rocks to climb, and pretty sights. But that's beside the point. While we were there in Portland, ME we were walking around and stumbled upon a cupcake store called East End Cupcakes. They have a website that you could go to if you are interested. It's called http://www.eastendcupcake.com/. When we went there I got a vanilla cupcake with chocolate frosting. It was delicious! It was so creamy! The place was just as good as Georgetown Cupcakes! If you go there I'd recommend the cupcake that I got, but my brother's was even better!! He got the chocolate cupcake with chocolate peanut butter frosting and a pretzel on top.  The prices were pretty good, too! If I ever go back to Portland, ME I'll definetly revisit East End Cupcakes!!

Georgetown Cupcakes



Across the street from Georgetown Cupcakes
Racks and racksof cupcakes!
 One of the cupcake stores we went to is actually on TV. I don't know if you've heard of it. It's called Georgetown Cupcakes.  On TV the show is called D.C Cupcakes.The owners of it are named Katherine and Sophie. They are sisters.  On the show they do some really big projects, out of cupcakes!! One they did was making a slot machine that actually poured out a topping whenever you pulled the lever. Another time they made a big ring and ring box for Katherine's engagement party.

   Anyway, over spring break of 2012 we took a trip to Washington D.C. While there we drove by Georgetown Cupcakes and since there wasn't much of a line my mom told me that we could all get a cupcake. I picked vanilla cupcake with vanilla frosting. My favorite! When I first bit into it I wasn't expecting it to be so good!! It was delicious!! I would totally recomend that you try this out!!
