Nom of the day: Mission Minis

Yeah, I still have to get my groupon order (another two dozen of these babies), but in the meantime, I picked up a dozen for my mom's birthday.

From front to back: Ginger carrot, banana maple glaze, pink lemonade, and peanut butter chocolate.

The pink lemonade is the prettiest one. It also reminds me of childhood.

These cupcakes are good, yes, but I still think they're over-hyped. I like the frosting on these cupcakes. Substantial and holds its shape well, but not overly heavy (unlike Sprinkles). The cupcake itself, though, was wayyy too dry. I've had better. Notably from a young up and coming baker (also a very good friend of mine), whose cupcakes are absolutely heavenly. You know, not that I'm biased or anything.
