Chicago has so many amazing cupcake places, I was initially thrilled to see Naperville with its own cupcake bakery. Alas, these cupcakes are some of the worst I have ever tasted.
I had the Brown Butter Vanilla, Kitchen Sink and Chocolate Mocha to split with friends and none of us were happy with any of the flavors.
The cupcakes were big but the cake itself was of similar quality to Jewel-Osco, and the frostings were far too sweet. Sugar trumped flavor in every case. I started to feel like all the cupcakes were tasting the same.
I hate wasting food, so I finished the cupcakes, but later felt quite sick. These don't leave you feeling full and satisfied, but rather gross and bloated.
Pros: Cute decor
Cons: Cupcakes are dry, Frosting is too sweet without real flavor
