What to do when Seattle's weather is acting up? Write a duo cupcake review, of course. I added coffee extract to the chocolate buttercream and added an espresso bean on top - its what caffeine dreams are made of! Pipes nicely, tastes good. Now, the lemony buttercream frosting is equally as good and the lemon zest and fresh lemon juice keep it nice and tangy without being too sweet. The gingerbread cupcakes were perfectly spiced, but maybe a bit too sweet. I found the texture to be sticky although this may be my "average oven", not the recipe. The chocolate cupcakes have already been reviewed - they were tasty, too!
