Flirty Cupcackes

We stopped in to visit Flirty Cupcakes in their first week in Lincoln Square.

Ruben:
Now these are good cupcakes, when i say good i mean AMAZING! first of all, we went to the brand new location of flirty cupcakes on lincoln and wilson. they also told us that they have a food truck and a shop in Little Italy. i had the IHop Cupcake, it was so good! it was a maple cake with a wonderful vanilla frosting with bits of bacon on top. the cake was so good and you could tell that it was nice and fresh. the frosting was phenomenal, very creamy and light and just melted in your mouth. and the bacon bits on top were the perfect touch, went so well with the maple cake. i had a bite of the other cupcakes that Max and Otto ordered and they were very good. i can't wait to try more. i loved the atmosphere of the place, very modern and cozy, just a great place to eat a cupcake. the service was great, the staff was very nice and asked how the cupcakes were and talked to us about the place, etc. the furniture was really cool too, they had a coffee table that was an old drum. they also had a table that was a old door with a piece of glass on top and these really cool metal stools. the counter was also really nice too. they displayed there cupcakes beautifully and just the whole shop was very nice. i loved flirty cupcakes and i plan to go back soon and it's a great touch to the lincoln square neighborhood.

Otto:
I got the For the Love of Nutella, which was chocolate cupcake with a big blob of Nutella inside and a buttercream and Nutella frosting. The frosting was so creamy and delicious, although the whole cupcake was even more delicious. I liked all the oven doors on the wall and the drum table. And I also liked the table that was made out of a recycled door. They had lots of repurposed things. It is so new that you can still smell some of the paint or oils or whatever they used on the furniture. But it wasn't so bad that you could not eat there. And it was fun to be there when it very first opened.

Max:
So i got the Peanut Butter Delight and it was UNFORGETTABLE!!! you see, this was maybe the best cupcake i have ever eaten. the Peanut Butter Delight's cake part was chocolate with a salted peanut butter center and delicious peanut butter frosting. and it also had a piece of Reese's Peanut Butter Cup on the top of the frosting. Yummmmmm! apparently this was a super new location that they said that they opened last Thursday, so we might be the first people to review it. the atmosphere was very nice. it was a very modern atmosphere but with old decorations. i liked the white counter tile. and also one of the tables was an old drum that might have been used at a circus or marching band. one of the walls had what looked like old rusty oven doors on them, they were very cool. i also really liked how they stacked their cupcakes, it was very beautiful but also something that's kinda hard to explain, but you'll see it in the pictures below. the service there was very nice. in fact our waiter said that the Peanut Butter Delight was his favorite cupcake. but the entire restaurant was really awesome, and i will definitely go back very soon!
