Say hello to Mr. Cupcakes and his cupcake cakes

As I just posted about, Mr. Cupcakes is a cupcake bakery in Clifton, New Jersey. They specialize in cupcake cakes! Yes, they are made from cupcakes, even if some of them you can't tell from the top. I love the way cupcake cakes serve double duty and give the best of both worlds: a fun party cake and individual cupcakes for all!

Check out some of them below. The next time I'm in NJ, I plan to visit. These photos are all from Marisa at Mr. Cupcakes on Flickr. Thanks, Marisa!

And this isn't a cake, but cupcakes with Chinese symbols (anyone know what they say?):



And last but certainly not least...a cupcake-shaped cupcake cake!



For those who just can't get enough of cupcake cakes, see this Flickr pool all about cupcake cakes.

Translation of Chinese characters:
first row: Luck or good luck
second: Hope
third: Love
Needs work on the writing, esp. character for love. Not exactly Chinese, more like kanji (Japanese).

I've tried Mr. Cupcakes. I got a few cupcakes to go... and I didn't know what to make of the place. My cupcake tasting was inconsistent. I had one cupcake that was very dry and crumbly and another flavor cupcake that was so moist it was borderline undercooked.

Chinese characters:
first row:happiness
second:hope
third: love (but this is written in simplified Chinese form, hence the comment about it looking un-Chinese)

Oh man, I thought I was going to be the first to jump on the Chinese translations, but I'm long overdue. I can at least offer pinyin:

first row-- xing4fu2
second row-- xi1wang4
third row-- ai4
