Best Cupcake Shop in Boston

Dave and I decided to find the best cupcake place in Boston. We wanted to take this tour but it was all booked up. So we created our own. Our first stop was Georgetown Cupcake.  It wasn't even on my list but we walked by it.  There seems to always be a line out the door.

So many good flavors to choose from!

We tried the coconut flavor and the chocolate peanut butter flavor.  Both were moist and rich. Excellent!

The next day, we resumed our search. Our first stop was the Thinking Cup Coffee Bar.

We got 2 mini cupcakes. We didn't want to get full too quickly since we had more shops to visit. We got red velvet and vanilla.  They were both delicious but not as good at Georgetown's.

Next we went to Isabelle's Curlycakes.

We walked to the Boston Gardens to eat our cupcakes. We got carried away and started to eat them before I took photos of them.  We tried a strawberry cupcake and a Boston creme cupcake.  Both were delicious and rich.  I loved the real strawberries in the strawberry flavor.  They were good but still second to Georgetown at this point.

Next we headed to Finale.

 They only had chocolate and vanilla cupcakes.  Not much a choice.  We were stuffed at this point. We decided to pack the cupcakes up and take them home to try later.

They were good cupcakes but no Georgetown's.  The lack of selection was disappointing too.

Our final stop was Sweet Cupcakes.

I love the cupcake carousel. Sweet Cupcakes had a great selection.  It was hard to only pick a few. We got pink lemonade, peach cobbler, blueberry, and honey lemon. We took these home to share with the kids as well.

Sweet Cupcakes sells pupcakes. We got Maximus two to enjoy.

We cut all the cupcakes into 4 so we could all try each.  Caitlin  made one multi cupcake.

Sweet Cupcakes were delicious.  My favorite was the pink lemonade.  It was just amazing.  It put Sweet Cupcakes into the #1 spot for me.  Dave still thinks that Georgetown's was the best. I personally think you can't go wrong with any of these places. Only Georgetown's and Sweet are just cupcake shops. They both had excellent selections.  They rest do lots of other foods.
