You, can call me cupcake

I have always loved cupcakes. I loved birthday and class parties in grade school, just for the hope of getting my hands on a cupcake. I loved the different flavors, and the single serving size. I enjoyed getting to experience the different textures of the frosting, the decorations and sprinkles. I loved how they would coordinate with the given holiday, and if I was lucky…there would be an inedible decoration to keep as a souvenir.

So when I was pregnant with Rylee, my good friend Dionne, the only other person I have ever met that loves cupcakes as much me, said there is this amazing cupcake shop in Wallingford that we had to go to. While Wallingford is a distance, I was up for the adventure. Nearly four years, and countless cupcakes later, I am here to RAVE about Trophy Cupcakes and party store. If you come to Seattle for a visit, are taking your kids to the Woodland Park Zoo, or just need to go for a drive, you must stop by. Their flavors vary by the day, but there is always something baked for everyone’s taste. The retro decorating and party favors are so fun and the house hot chocolate is unlike anything I have ever tasted and ask for a homeade marshmallow to go with it. You will not be disappointed!! Here is a link to their site, www.trophycupcakes.com, but be prepared to drool!!

Oh man! I'm glad this isn't any closer.
Hmmm, I've been thinking I needed to run by the zoo......

Ok, I think I need to take a trip to Seattle just for those cupcakes! Yummy! (I may actually do that one day since my little sis lives out there!)

I had to look at this again! That store looks like something from Disneyland Main street!
My confession.... When I eat a cupcake in the privacy of my own home I break off the bottom and put it on the top so the icing is in the middle. It's better that way.

Hey! It finally let me on your blog. That was so wierd, because yesterday it really would not let me on your blog.

Anyhow, that place looks like somewhere I need to go. Yumm.

Yum! I tried out the infamous Sprinkle cupcakes a couple of months ago and they were divine. But this place looks divine and they let you eat it there!! (Sprinkles makes you take it home and eat it.)
