Because my work has put me across the TX/LA states lines, I am now continuing my conquest in Shreveport, LA for longer than previously expected (but it's a good thing!).
I tried Julie Anne's traditional chocolate cupcake with buttercream white icing. Now I have had their famous petit fours, delicious! And I have heard that some celebrities, including Katie Holmes, enjoyed the tasty cupcake treats. I thought to myself: of course it must be blogged about and spread to the world!
Back to the cupcake now. Because it is the weekend of Chocolate's biggest consumption, Valentine's Day, the tasty treats' decor was nothing less than smothered with plastic lips, pink and red colored additions, hearts, etc. Being slightly overwhelmed, I decided on the more classic cupcake flavor rather than trying their chocolate turtle, strawberry, German chocolate, or lemon cupcake.
The chocolate cake was perfect for a simple dessert! It was light, fluffy, and just the right amount of chocolate goodness. The frosting was simply a classic buttercream frosting, moreso on the sugary side but nonetheless yummy in my tummy!
As I stated earlier, their petit fours are truly divine if you are in the mood for something a little more petit than the cupcakes. Even though their petit fours are a bit on the larger size.
3.5 out of 5 Stars (4 stars for the petit fours)
