Cupcake Showdown: A comparison of Davis confections

There’s nothing like that perfect cupcake—moist cake with creamy frosting that melts on your tongue with ease and leaves you wanting more.

Let Them Eat Cake has nailed the perfect cupcake just as Barbra Streisand nails every note she sings. Their cupcakes have spongy cake and just enough frosting.

Sugar Daddies’ Cupcake Craving, on the other hand, is not quite as on-point. Its cupcakes agree with your taste buds about as well as Jacob agrees with Edward.

Sugar Daddies globs the sugary frosting onto their sometimes-dry cupcakes. It’s very hit or miss with Sugar Daddies; sometimes the cupcakes taste fresh and other times they seem to be a day old.

Let Them Eat Cake’s cupcakes, however, always taste fresh as they have a different menu for each day of the week. Their variety of cupcakes keeps customers from getting bored with certain menu items.

While Cupcake Craving at Sugar Daddies does not have a changing menu, their cupcakes are creative—ranging from “Koo-Koo for Macaroons” to “S’more Galore.”

Although the “S-more Galore” cupcake looks appetizing, it is too sweet to eat more than one bite of. The chocolate frosting and the marshmallow filling are too much.

Let Them Eat Cake’s “Dubliner” cupcake is just the opposite. It’s impossible to simply eat one bite. The dark chocolate cake is not too bitter or too sweet; it’s just right. The chocolate ganache frosting is nicely swirled on top of the rich cake, giving the cupcake a mature look.

Next time you’re craving a cupcake, avoid Sugar Daddies’ Cupcake Craving. While the name may be inviting, their cupcakes aren’t up to par, so head to Let Them Eat Cake instead.

Their cupcakes are dangerous, so be warned – no doubt you’ll be left with an irresistible craving for another cupcake.
