I recently went to a birthday party in North Park and had the guilty pleasure of sampling a tasty selection of cupcakes (my favorite was the vanilla bean cup with chocolate mousse center topped with a sliced strawberry). No longer are the days of plain chocolate or vanilla, and now even marble or funfetti seems so simple. It may seems fashionable, even Food Network has reaped the benefits of this popular pastry with the Cupcake Wars series, but today's treats have put cupcakes in the dessert spotlight. Cupcake only bakeries have proliferated in the recent years, and that's clearly evident in San Diego. With flavors like lemon coconut, guava mango, pistachio, and black forest, these daily baked bites of heaven are hard to resist.
If you're anything like me, and lack baking skills, you're in luck. There are a handful of cupcake boutiques and bakeries in San Diego that offer a large selection of decadent treats. Here are a few of my favorites:
Heavenly Cupcake, 518 6th Ave, Downtown
Heaven Sent Desserts, 3001 University (corner 30th St), North Park
