I need few very good cupcakes for tonight. Nothing too fancy, just real cupcakes in the neighborhood.

Thanks

    Two Little Red Hens is good, albeit a bit pricey.

    from the looks of things, I'm smuggling a few in my belly right now ;-)

    (ok, that wasn't helpful, but I couldn't resist!)

    Someone on the street directed me to the Red Hens place, too. Just what i wanted, very home-made feel cupcakes. Haven't tasted yet though...

    Thanks

    cakeman raven's cupcakes are awesome, too, but he's not in the slope (just something to remember for the future). glad you found what you needed, kris!

    I haven't had one in a while, but the cupcakes at Blue Apron are really good.

    I was disappointed in Joyce's cupcakes actually. the magnolia bakery disease - pretty to look at, not much for flavor....

    This place on Atlantic makes big good muffins. They're not amazing but what they lack in amazingness they make up for in largeness.

    Sweet Melissas! Yeah, they're pricey--but so is every fancy cupcake. Reminds me, today I walked past a place on 23rd in nyc called "Cupcakes and Burgers." ?!!@ I kid you not.

    I think Blue Apron gets their cupcakes from Baked.

    Regardless, they are yummy.

    It was great to see all those recommendations, thank you so much.
    We ate all the cupcakes i bought from Three Little Hens and the Red Velvet ones were really good. Chocolate was just OK.

    One thing about bakeries I don't understand, if you ask them which are the freshest cupcakes they say all of them are fresh, from this morning. yeah right...I could taste they were not. Oh...

    Actually, I don't like Red Hens' cupcakes - taste more like crisco than butter. Love Blue Apron's and also Tempo Presto on 3rd st. has some good big ones.

    tempo presto? really? i've never thought to go in there.... hmmmm..... thanks for the suggestion!

    (BTW, i agree with you on Red Hens' cupcakes. they have other things on the menu that are fantabulous, but not the cupcakes)

    I do vegan cupcakes! Deeeelicious!! Not that "dry and weird" taste either. Moist and yummy.
