The Kissable Valentine's Day Cupcake at New York's sugar Sweet sunshine

I was very excited to discover The Kiss Cupcake at sugar Sweet sunshine (I cap it like that because I believe that's how they do it, not just to be weird), the bakery that helped inspire this very blog back in the day. It has peppermint cream cheese frosting on chocolate cake and is only $1.50, as are all their cupcakes, which for the price/quality ratio is basically the best you're going to get in New York City. Now, I am not a fan of cream cheese frosting for the most part, but this one, with its peppermint-y tang, was wonderful.

This isn't the greatest shot, but while it wasn't filled, the chocolate cake was moist, and the sugar on top added a little crunch (the sprinkles were pretty but I'm not really a fan of the actual taste of basic sprinkles - give me a little sugar any day):

I really liked the blue on blue (on the right, above), and that even with something as little as colored sugar, you can add a lot to the appearance of a cupcake.

And last but not least, their Valentine's Day sign. Also, they make mini cupcakes upon request and are extremely easy to work with. Check them out: www.sugarsweetsunshine.com - we heart them.
