Well after 45 minutes of waiting which allowed me to eat my lunch and check my mail numerous times the Perfect Circle Cupcakery in Orange finally opened! I read yesterday on Fast Food Maven (Hi Nancy!) that they were supposed to open at 11:00 AM, I strolled up at 11:30 and the door was locked, so I went and grabbed some lunch. After I ate it was 11:50 and they said it would be another 15 minutes till they opened. After about 40 more minutes of waiting they finally opened their doors and I was lucky enough to be the first customer. The owner said she was still in the soft launch process but that they plan to be open for reals now. Service was nice, but there isn’t really much to taking my order of cupcakes and putting them neatly in a box for me to take home, but both the girls were nice that were serving.
Now on to what they have. They had 8 cupcake varieties today and all cupcakes are $3. In my opinion they are a little expensive especially since they are just normal size varieties, not the slightly larger ones that I’ve had from some other cupcake shops.
Today’s flavors were…
Sweet Joe, which looks like a apple crumb with a little bit of powered sugar on top.
Old Towne Orange, topped with a orange slice.
Princess Vanilla, white on white.
Coconut Bliss
Queen Red Velvet, red cake with cream cheese frosting (not filled, just topped).
Snickerdoodle
King Chocolate, white on chocolate
Vanilla Peppermint, unsure what they look like because they were still being worked on.
I ordered 6 (2 Red, 2 King, 1 Old Towne, and 1 Snicker) to go and ate one of the Red Velvets, which was good. The frosting was just sweet enough to not be too overpowering the cake was not dry and not too moist, it was just about perfect. I’ll add more later to see what everyone else thinks of them tonight.
The store has a nice look to it, decorated with pastel blue walls, black and white accents, a flat screen playing Breakfast at Tiffanys and enough seating for about 12 or so people.
No star review since they just opened.
