I just discovered (thanks Jackson) San Francisco's Cups and Cakes via the Weekly Yelp for SF (can't find a web link), and they look awesome. Why? Mainly because you can mix and match your favorite cake and frosting flavors. Angel food cake with blackberry frosting? Dark chocolate cake with pink lemonade frosting? Go for it!
Plus I just booked a trip to San Francisco for Halloween weekend, so I am making a little list of bakeries to hit up while I'm in town. Also check out their reviews on Yelp.
Click here to see all their flavors. Below is just their special ones.
Special & Filled Cupcakes:
Boston cream pie
our vanilla butter cake filled with vanilla pastry cream topped with dark chocolate ganache
cherry cordial
a dense, cherry-chocolate cake frosted with cherry buttercream, and a cherry on top!
German’s chocolate
mild milk chocolate cake, topped with a nutty, coconutty, gooey custard
ginger beet
a sweet-spicy balance of Asian flavors with fresh beet, candied ginger and topped with to-die-for ginger cream cheese frosting! You think you won’t like it, but you will, I promise!
ginger carrot
another sweet-spicy balance of flavors, topped with to-die-for ginger cream cheese frosting, and a pile of candied carrots
Grandma’s apple pie
cinnamon-nutmeg cupcake filled with homemade apple pie filling, with cinnamon cream cheese frosting and a bit of pie crust!
lemon drop
sweet lemon cake, filled with homemade lemon curd, and topped with lemon buttercream and crushed lemon drops
pancake breakfast
Nieman Ranch bacon, maple syrup-sweetened cupcakes, with maple buttercream, topped with a piece of bacon, of course! pumpkin perfection (Now in Season!!)
fresh shredded pumpkin in a spiced cake with white chocolate chips, topped with cream cheese frosting and pumpkin sprinkles
