New York’s famous Magnolia Bakery has been serving up legendary cupcakes for over 12 years. And now the rest of the nation is finally catching up with a good idea: everybody digs cupcakes. Be prepared, the cupcake tsunami is coming this Summer – “cupcakeries” are cropping-up everywhere.

In the San Francisco Bay Area, a bzillion new cupcake joints will be opening their doors this Summer. In my neighborhood, Festin’s Bakery will be setting up cupcakety goodness in the Stanford (University) Shopping Center. And our hopes are that the more established local cupcakeries, such as Sibby’s Cupcakery (photo above), will ride this trend and expand to new locations (like next door to my house).

The rockstar of the cupcake world:
The elusive “red velvet” cupcake. Try to find one, you will thank me.

Perhaps the internet cupcake authority:
Cupcakes Take The Cake – an entire blog dedicated to the magical sprinkley world of cupcakes.
