My daughter told me she had heard of a GREAT cupcake shop in Naperville and I have been meaning to check it out. Every time I head north on route 59, I drive right by Miss Joan's Cupcakes on the east side of the street. Two weeks ago, I made it a point to stop in for some yummy desserts. When I opened the door, I was surprised to see I was 4th in line. WOW, they must be good, if there is a line...right?
The inside of the store was bright colored and cheerful. For a nice break, a few tables were available for guests to sit, relax and enjoy their sweet cupcake. As one person paid for their order, the door swung open to more guests. Holy Cow...I have been missing out on this place!!
The display case was filled with these pretty cupcakes, all dressed and decorated each matching the name to their iced decor....S'Mores, Red Velvet, and Carrot Cake to name just a few of my favorites. The swirls were perfect and uniform. The colors and decorations reflected their themes. While onlookers made their choices, I too chose a half dozen I would be taking home for tonight's dessert.
Since I was last in line, I actually spoke with Miss Joan. What a sweet gal. I'm hoping we can work together on an event in the future.
Miss Joan explained how she made several classic flavored cupcakes everyday and some specialty flavors each day as well. "Like" her on Facebook to see their flavor of the day. Word of warning...get there early, she sells out DAILY!!
So, I bring my tasty treats home and my husband says, "Oh can I have one of these BEFORE dinner." The mom in me says, of course NOT, you will spoil your dinner! LOL!! Rave reviews came from our dinner table that night!
My daughter came home from college for the weekend and was thrilled to find cupcakes under my dessert dome pedestal in the kitchen. We all agreed... Miss Joan's Cupcakes are to DIE for!!
If you are looking for something special, Miss Joan will do special orders. Place your orders early, this gal is busy, busy, busy!!
I decided to see how the cupcakes fit in my party favors...OMG, just darling!!!
