Main Street Cupcakes – Take 2

Let me preface with…

Ya’ll know I’m not crazy about sweets, but for some reason I’ve become OBSESSED with trying this place out! :mrgreen:

Remember last Sunday when I stopped at this place and it was SOLD OUT?!?!?!

2.19 021

Well – when I said I was going back first thing Friday morning – I wasn’t kidding! :mrgreen:

Friday morning – on my day off – I made sure to wake up nice and early so I could get everything done that I wanted to in the morning, AND to make sure I was OUT THE DOOR, by 9:55, so that I could be at Main Street Cupcakes when it opened at 10am!

A little fun fact – they have over 150 CUPCAKES they can make, the list is seriously impressive..  Honestly – if you have a free second – check out their list of cupcakes on their website.  Don’t get jealous – THEY SHIP ACROSS THE U.S.!! :razz:

When I got there, I walked in to – and a case FULL of cupcakes!!!!  SWOON! :grin:

2.19 015 2.19 016 2.19 017

I have a slight obsession with the appearance of the “Birthday Cake” cupcakes – the sprinkles just look SO perfect!

2.19 018

They had 13 flavors – so I ordered EVERYTHING they had Friday morning, with the exception of “Classic Chocolate”.  Everything else sounded so cool – I couldn’t skip something like “MSC Fluff” or “Petal Cupcake” for “Classic Chocolate”.  Sorry Classic Chocolate! :shock: :wink:

I walked away with my highly coveted dozen…

2.19 020

…and drove them straight over to the recipient – my Momma (I surprised her at work!) :mrgreen:

2.19 023

Sure I’m partial – but isn’t she seriously the cutest Mom of the face of this earth???  Seriously!!!!  LOVE HER!!!! :cool: (see my stunna shades in the bottom left corner?  Told ya I was cool! :razz: )

The dozen:

2.19 0262.19 025

First six

Bottom row: (L to R) Chocolate Peanut Butter, Mint Chocolate Chip, Birthday Cake

Next Row: (L to R) MSC Fluff, Red Velvet, Lemon Drop

2.19 027

Second six

“3rd row” (L to R): Half Baked, Bubble Gum, Chocolate Malt

“4th row” (L to R): Classic Vanilla, Wedding Cake, Petal Cupcake

2.19 028

Just look at that frosting!!!! :grin:

2.19 029

SO, SO, SO, SO DELICIOUS – I totally see what all the local rave is about!  These cupcakes are seriously FANTASTIC! The entire GDW family approves! :grin:

I actually ended up going to the Hudson store on Saturday (totally unplanned, was out with Kristin, wedding dress shopping), and picked up 2 more cupcakes!! :wink:   Mike got to try the “Cookies and Cream” and totally fell in love.  :grin:

Well – as a dude, he described it much differently than “I totally fell in love” :razz: – he said that it tasted “awesome”, and described it as “a chocolate cupcake topped with a HUGE glob of Oreo filling” which would make anyone happy, right?

If you are ever in Rocky River or Hudson – you should DEFINITELY make sure to check out Main Street Cupcakes – but MAKE SURE YOU GET THERE EARLY!  Their cupcakes are so popular and amazing – both locations sell out daily!  Need I say more?  Does that fact speak for itself? :cool:

Oh yeah – and fan them on FB if you get the chance!!! :mrgreen:

They look amazing, chica. And your mom is absolutely adorable!!

[Reply]

yum! I’m totally drooling right now. They should get an organic flavor on the menu!

I love pretty cupcakes – better to look at than eat usually!

[Reply]

I, too, am intrigued by those sprinkles! Amazing!

[Reply]

If you look on their “Locations” page, you’ll see that Parma is SMACK IN THE MIDDLE of the map between Rocky River and Hudson! It’s probably a good thing that they are not closer: I could easily make that place a weekly habit!

I love your comment about the “guy comment”. While I’m apt to go into a long winded description about seasonings, Hans says things like “it was good” or “yeah, I liked it”. It’s night and day!

[Reply]

Oh my gosh all of those cupcakes look to die for! I want to try the half-baked!

A cupcake with a cookie on top is my idea of heaven. Drool.

[Reply]

OMG, if they had a place like that where I live, I think I would be eating cupcakes for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day! :)

[Reply]

this post really makes me ant to go home and bake cupcakes!!! i looove the birthday cake one too – too cute!

[Reply]

Obvs, Main Street Cupcakes was not factored into the decision when naming Cleveland worst city to live in. Portland doesn’t even have a cupcake shop that nice!

[Reply]

OMG I NEED THESE CUPCAKES! I read this post mere moments after finishing a sub-par mini red velvet cake…I feel so cheated!! ;)

[Reply]

Looks awesome!! I am totally obsessed with cupcakes! We have a similar cupcake shop here that is wonderful! I would love to own a cupcake shop like that!!

MSC did my wedding and people are still talking about those cupcakes almost 3 years later.

My favorite-Toffee and Coffee. It’s heaven on earth. Seriously.

Guess where I am eating lunch today? Main Street Cupcakes!!!

[...] Allison at Green Dog Wine made me aware of this bakery with locations in Rocky River and Hudson, but I hadn’t experienced them first hand until Friday night. Hans snagged a pumpkin cupcake, which he later said was the best thing he ate all night. Alas, when we went back for seconds, the folks at MSC were completely cleared out! [...]
