Baltimore now has its own cupcake truck. From The Baltimore Sun:
It was only a matter of time before the cupcake trend and food-truck trend collided.
It happened this week in Baltimore County, when a longtime wedding cake baker climbed into a pink-and-white polka dotted truck and started cruising suburban office parks in search of snack-starved workers.
Christine Richardson, 50, sold all 400 cupcakes on board Wednesday, and nearly sold out Tuesday, the first day she took Icedgems Baking on the road.
She alerts customers to the truck's whereabouts by way of Twitter and Facebook.
"A year ago I couldn't even text," she said. "And now I can Facebook with the best of them."
Richardson makes a "huge variety" of flavors, offering five or six each day. They include coffee cake cupcakes with coffee frosting, lemon, and the big hit Wednesday, rocky road, made with pecans, marshmallows, dark and light chips and a buttercream frosting with more of those pecans and chips.
The cupcakes are $2.50 each, $12.50 for a half-dozen, $24 a dozen.
