My Delight Cupcakery's winning "breakfast cupcake"
Let’s get ready to CRRRRUMBLE!
The oven mitts are off as some of the best cupcakeries from Los Angeles and Orange County compete for the title of “best cupcake” in Southern California. The public (you) and panel of celebrity judges (I’m one of them!) will each vote on their favorite cupcakes, culminating in the crowning of LA’s best traditional and non-traditional cupcakes. Sponsored by CozmoCard, the event will feature Los Angeles’ best mini cupcakes. Here are the frosty facts:
Why?

How much?
Tickets are $40 and can be purchased here: [www.drinkeatplay.com/cupcakechallenge]
If you break it down, $40 isn’t that steep:
- you’ll be tasting dozens of mini cupcakes (at an approx $2 retail value, you can eat your tickets’ worth in 20 mini cupcakes!)
- think about all that gas you’ll be saving trying to find the best cupcake in the LA + OC!
