As a bonus destination in Le Tour de Pastry, Uncle John brought us to Haute Pink Cakes (San Diego, CA), a cute little family-owned bakery with a cheery bright pink and orange interior.
They have some cool custom cakes in their gallery and cute non-edible goodies in the store, like this cupcake bath bomb. Which also comes with a free diamond ring?
The cupcake selection was bountiful, but ultimately we each had to choose one.
I chose the Snickerdoodle, which I can admit I selected purely for the presentation. They had me at 'Edible Sparkles'.
The buttercream holds in such a good solid shape, but when you bite into it, it's still soft and fluffy. What's their secret? I think a little bit-o-Crisco, but that's just a hunch.
Cole got the Oreo. They had him at 'Oreo'.
UJ got the mini Coconut. He wanted to feel like a giant.
I think Cole liked his cupcake. Good pick, UJ!
