The Super Bowl Sprinkle

Appropriately named, the title of this entry is a play on the 1985 Chicago Bears, "Super Bowl Shuffle." Basically, we bought Sprinkles cupcakes on the day of the super bowl, but I might be showing my age by quoting something from the 80's.

Anyway, I started with raspberry chocolate chip, which was chocolate chip-studded Belgian dark chocolate cake topped with raspberry frosting. I was pleasantly surprised that this cupcake tasted pretty good. I thought it would be too rich with the dark chocolate and raspberry combination, but not at all.

Next, I had lemon, which consisted of California lemon cake, topped with a lemon-vanilla frosting flecked with zest. This is not a flavor I typically choose for cupcakes, but it was one I never tried or reviewed, so I took the chance! It was also better than I expected. I think the frosting having vanilla mixed in helped it to not be too lemon-y.

That's all for now! Have a sweet Valentine's Day!
