I will miss your delicious enormous cupcakes and sprinkles.

the board is slow- i figure it would give us something to discuss.

Any.

If I HAD to choose, it'd be a hard decision between toffee-Baileys or "the Elvis" which is banana cake with peanut chunks, peanut butter frosting and a crunchy banana chip on top or banatella (like the elvis but with nutella centre in the cake and nutella frosting with a banana chip and a hazelnut on top) Passionfruit white chocolate comes very close behind.

Curse you, now I want cupcakes

My ultimate dream is to run my own cafe and if it ever happens, the cakes will be spectacular because who wants cake that isn't spectacular?

I've got to agree with Summerlovin314 - so many cupcake shops have dry cupcakes with excessively sugary frosting, and are so overpriced. I'm not surprised by the store closures.

Never been to a Crumbs but I do agree with all this

The only one I really liked was the apple one because it tasted more like a muffin than a cupcake. I agree that a lot of their cupcakes were too sugary and definitely overpriced!

Never heard of Crumbs, but I like those little mini cupcakes that you can cram in your mouth in one bite. Usually I like the vanilla of those best, though the chocolate's not bad, either. It's a good size because it prevents me from getting my nose covered in frosting like an awkward, tasty Rudolph.

I do this with normal-sized cupcakes when no-one's around.

I've never heard of Crumbs either. Although I'd love a red velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting. Mmmm.
