The moment I finished talking with Shayna, I looked up Rocket Queen online and placed an order for a special dinner we are having coming up! Then I discovered that she was going to be at the local Corvallis Farmers Market. So guess who hopped down to the Farmer's Market primarily to check out the cupcakes!? Yup, that would be me!
Naturally, after arriving home with a small stash, we chose to take a few photos before consuming them. (Well. Except for the lemon one. That one was eaten before being captured for posterity's sake.) And this first chocolate cupcake you see here was deftly snatched from our three year old's hands before he was able to dive in...
I confess. I LOVE cupcakes. I've already placed a second order with Jessica for another party. I'm holding back on trying the spicy chai cupcakes though, because I anticipating sinking my teeth into one in July (heh heh, be sure to order extra, Shayna! ;-) but in the meantime, I plan on enjoying some non-wedding cupcakes this spring. I'm not sure if it's a blessing or a curse that Jessica and her cupcakes are at the Farmer's Market. You should go find out and make that decision for yourself!
Our top recommendation this week: Baphomet - a carrot cake finished with a creamy goat cream cheese frosting, topped with toasted walnuts.
Add your own side glass of cold, refreshing milk and enjoy!

Those sound pretty gourmet and upscale. I don't know if you've looked at the Crumbs website, but you definitely won't see goat cheese. However, they are BIG and beautiful and pretty darn tasty.
We might have to look into Magnolia Bakery as well if you are such a cupcake fiend.
Tasty, I almost drooled on the keyboard ;)
Awesome images of such tasty food. Would go down with a hot cup of coffee. Sure are queen cupcakes. Thanks
