A Champion, Revisited

A year ago, Dave and I treated our wedding guests to their choice of margarita, red velvet, and strawberry cupcakes from Miss Mamie's Cupcakes in Marietta Square.

Miss Mamie's was totally on board with my vision of making the cupcakes look colorful and fun, to fit in with our whimsically decorated wedding. Though absolutely adorable, appearance wasn't the reason we chose Miss Mamie's to be one of our wedding vendors. Y'all, I have eaten a lot of cupcakes in my day, and these are my absolute favorite. Turns out, Food Network agrees...Miss Mamie's recently won Cupcake Wars!

Best of all, the cupcakery has recently added the award-winning recipes to their repertoire. Customers can order these now-regular menu items daily. I recently had a birthday surprise in the form of a devil's food cupcake with a tangerine kick, a creation that was inspired by cannoli on Cupcake Wars.

We'd planned on celebrating our one-year anniversary by visiting Miss Mamie's and ordering the same cupcakes we'd had a year ago. Instead, we opted to try more of the new additions.

The cupcake on the left is inspired by an eclair: with cinnamon cake and Nutella frosting. The one on the right is a margarita cupcake, though this one has been amped up a bit since our wedding. It now features a tomato coulis with jalapeño slices! The mixture of spicy and sweet was incredible.

Miss Mamie's Cupcakes deserves all of the success that's coming its way. If you live in ATL and haven't jumped on the bandwagon yet, you're missing out!
