I work in Burbank, California. I usually bring my own snacks and lunch to work since there aren't many options for a vegan. Sure, I can get veggie sushi or spicy green beans with tofu at local restaurants. But sometimes you need sweets. I've always had to bring my own to get through those cravings. Today I found out that there is a bakery that has two vegan cupcakes everyday of the week within five minutes of my work. The place that dreams are made of is called Yummy Cupcakes. They have a few locations in this area: Burbank, Santa Monica, and Brentwood.
I sampled the cupcakes. My two vegan flavors were Cinnamon Brown Sugar and Red Velvet. First I dug into the Cinnamon Brown Sugar (only half of it). It was moist and delicate. The frosting was just like the frosting we had as kids. A bit too intense but good. I think next time I'll scrap off some of the frosting so it doesn't overwhelm the cupcake. I tried to wait as long as I could on the Red Velvet (once again, only half of it) but I didn't wait long. Once again the cupcake was nice and delicate. Not too sweet. Just moist and good. Once again I'd scrap off some of the frosting the next time I get one. And we all know, there will be a next time.
