I like simple things. Pretty things. Like Cupcakes.
I like a shop who knows who it is. I like a shop with a simple message. Cupcakes.
Cupcakes is a store that doesn't bite off more than it can chew; who knows on which side its bread is buttered and who knows every side of its buttery bread.
The original Cupcakes is situated in the West End of Vancouver's down town. It only does one thing. But that one thing is done very well!
My favourite is the 'Koo Koo' - a plain vanilla cupcake with delicious, creamy, cream cheese icing and desiccated coconut sprinkled on top.
While the 'Koo Koo' is a very special cupcake there are others which I hold close to my heart such as the 'Lemon Drop'; a lemon cake with lemon butter cream. Then there's the 'Blue Hawaii'; a coconut cake with a blue vanilla butter cream, sprinkled with fresh coconut.
A beautiful shop, doing its thing to keep kids of all ages smiling. You can have a taste of Cupcakes' expanding empire, now at three locations: West End; West Broadway; and North Vancouver.

Thank you, Amanda, Anali and Hillary!
It is a special place. I really enjoyed writing about it, but more so because I got to consume the subject of the photos afterwards!
