Cupcakes come in two main sizes here: Regular and large (about the size of a muffin). Among the options are triple lemon, carrot cake and toasted coconut. Retail manager Christina Kaufman says the shop is considering adding a strawberry or orange one this summer and a gingerbread one in the winter. One thing to note: Cupcakes sell out fast, so Kaufman suggests ordering the night before or several hours before pickup.
