Everyone knows that the popularity of cupcakes has seen a major surge in the past 5 years. It used to be that if you wanted cupcakes you either made them at home or went to a bakery or cake shop and ordered them. Now you have a surplus of small bakeries, corporate chains, and even food trucks that serve up the sweet treat. I LOVE me a good cupcake, so you can say I've tried quite a few. For a delish cupcake here in San Antonio, I truly have not found anything better than Kate's Frosting.

One standard for dessert tables is usually the cupcake. No matter how elegant, trendy, or kitschy the dessert table design is, the cupcake reigns supreme for the majority of my clients. Now the flavor...that's a whole different ball game, which is why I adore Kate's Frosting. Their menu is quite expansive and utterly creative! With flavor names like Ruby Slipper, Teacher's Pet, The Dutchess, El Rey Feo and Es-pres-yo-self, even ordering those little buggers is fun. My fave concoction courtesy of Kate is "By the Sea Salted," chocolate cake filled with caramel cream, topped with chocolate buttercream, caramel drizzle, and a light sprinkle of sea salt. Ugh...what time do they open? I'm getting hungry!
