Looking back

The SD Foodie take

Editorial commentary written from Roger’s original photograph and caption. Roger’s own words are the quoted photo note above.

Rows of mini cupcakes fill the tray: red velvet, chocolate and pink-frosted varieties, each small enough to try several.

Roger got a sweet tooth and headed downtown. He had tagged a to-go box from Heavenly Cupcake in June 2012, so this was a known quantity when the craving hit.

The quick critique

What stood out

  • Mini cupcakes to sample
  • Red velvet and chocolate
  • A repeat sweet-tooth stop

Bottom line

Archive verdict

A downtown cupcake stop Roger trusted for a sugar fix.
