Gluttonous Cupcakes


Ahh the infamous Sprinkles. We would like to think that this place is overrated, but in reality it really isnt. Instead, it is perhaps the best cupcake bakery in all of Southern California. Yea, I've been to some of the bootleggers out there, and they cannot even compete.

During this visit to Sprinkles I went with my friends Hazel and Lily. Upon arrival, we noticed that the line was really long. So long that it almost reached the end of the block. We were torn between waiting in line, or hitting up Crumbs, which is only a few minutes down Santa Monica Blvd. However, since we had a lot of catching up to do, we decided to wait. In all honesty, the wait was worth it.

Once inside, its like you step into heaven. The people working there are so friendly and nice, that theyre like angels waiting to take your order. Before even talking to the workers, all you can think about is the cupcakes that are literally right infront of you. If anything, I would want to slip my hand behind the glass screen that separates the customers from the cupcakes.

After waiting for so long, I decided to go all out and buy 6 cupcakes. (6 cupcakes=19.50) I ordered a coconut, a black and white, two red velvets, and two irish chocolate. The irish chocolate is a seasonal flavor for St. Patrick's Day. The other flavors and their corresponding days can be found here.

Address: Sprinkles 9635 Santa Monica Blvd, Beverly Hills CA

Departure: 40 minutes and 20 miles

Post Script: Make sure if youre waiting in line for a long period of time that youre with a group of friends who know how to make the best out of the situation. Damn, I sure did.
