Valentine's Cupcakes

For the past month, I have resisted the cupcakes at Starbucks. Yesterday, I broke down and bought two chocolate and two vanilla cupcakes. Both flavours are as decadent as they look. This dessert is just right the size and not too sweet. I am a chocoholic through and through; yet, I can say that I liked the vanilla as much as I liked the chocolate. The vanilla has a gentle but complex flavour probably because they use actual vanilla beans...and the chocolate...what can I say? It is chocolate...simple, rich and just plain old yum. One cupcake is $1.95 or you can go for a more economical pack of four for $6.95. These cupcakes are here especially for Valentine's Day. My hope is that they will come back for next Valentine's if not stay around for awhile (it seems like everything I like at Starbucks gets taken off the menu). Anyways.... before the day is out, at least treat yourself if not that special someone to an affordable sweet treat.
