Clockwise from left: key lime ginger, coconut, red velvet
Mini-cupcakes from a place called Sweet in San Francisco’s Castro neighborhood… They looked pretty and were certainly sweet (almost *too* sugary, even), but they weren’t heavy in the flavor department.

March 24th, 2010 at 7:07 amAww, adorable! The “hippest” cupcake shop in my city is called Flirt!, and though their cupcakes aren’t always as cute as these (though some are cuter!), they’re always absolutely delish.
Key lime ginger, though. That sounds interesting…

Do they sell mini-cupcakes there? I swear those things are the best invention since sliced bread.
