Burgers and Cupcakes Vanilla Frosting on Vanilla Cake



Vanilla Cake with Vanilla Frosting from Burgers and Cupcakes, $2.50, http://www.burgersandcupcakes.us/, 9th Avenue and 34th Street

Taste: The frosting is really super sweet, but delicious, a pure and rich vanilla. The vanilla cake is pleasant but not overly flavorful or sweet. Without blueberries baked in like in the blueberry cupcake, it's not quite as tasty. Overall Taste Rating: 3.5 out of 5 sprinkles.

Texture: The frosting is really thick and creamy, slightly hardened on the outside but melts wonderfully on my tongue. The cake texture is medium-- not dry but not super moist. Overall Texture Rating: 3.5 out of 5 sprinkles

Aesthetic: A uniquely conical appearance, with icing heaped ontop generously in a conical heap about three inches high, adorned with rainbow sprinkles. Overall Aesthetic Rating: 4 out of 5 Sprinkles

Satisfaction: This was a tasty cupcake, without a doubt. There wasn't anything unique or special about it, but for a classic vanilla on vanilla cupcake, it was definitely satisfying and sweet, and does the trick for a sweet tooth fix! Overall Satisfaction Rating: 4 out of 5 sprinkles.

Overall Cupcake Ranking: 15 Sprinkles (out of 20 possible)

Burgers and Cupcakes Blueberry Cupcake


Blueberry Cupcake from Burgers and Cupcakes, $2.50, http://www.burgersandcupcakes.us/, 9th Avenue and 34th Street

Taste:
The frosting is delicious-- very sweet but scrumptious. Though it is very slightly tinted blue, it tastes just vanilla to me. The frosting was topped with a fresh, delicious sweet blueberry! The cake itself had fresh blueberries baked into it to make a delicious blueberry cake. The vanilla part of the cake doesn't have much flavor, but the blueberries mixed into it give it a great, natural blueberry taste of fresh blueberries-- not artificial at all! Overall Taste Rating: 4.5 out of 5 sprinkles

Texture:
The frosting is creamy and thick, and melts happily into sugary goodness on my tongue. The cake texture is not dry but not super moist, but with yummy softened blueberries baked right in they leave moist, sweet delicious blue pockets throughout the cake. Overall Taste Rating: 4.5 out of 5 sprinkles.

Aesthetic:
A uniquely conical appearance, with icing heaped ontop generously in a conical heap about three inches high, dotted on top with a fresh blueberry! Overall Aesthetic Rating: 4 out of 5 sprinkles.

Satisfaction: My first blueberry flavored cupcake, and I really liked it! I love blueberry muffins, but this was definitely a cupcake and not a muffin-- it was vanilla cake fit for a cupcake with fresh bluberries baked into it, with lots of sweet frosting and topped with a fresh blueberry. Innovative and delicious! Overall Satisfaction Rating: 4.5 out of 5 sprinkles

Overall Cupcake Ranking: 17.5 Sprinkles (out of 20 possible)
