The Cupcakery
It has been tradition for a really long time that I have lemon cake for my birthday. But since there are just two of us, we don’t really need a whole cake sitting around the house. So we decided to visit The Cupcakery to get an individual-sized portion of cake. This place was recognized by the Las Vegas Review Journal’s Best of Las Vegas 2007 as the Best Dessert (newspaper’s choice). And boy, was it tasty.

Crumbs: From Neighborhood Cupcakery to Failed Chain
Tuesday, July 8, 2014, by Paula Forbes
