Cupcakes! Perfect Mid-day treat!?

I work in Uptown or technically what is Downtown Charlotte and enjoy seeing the different vendors they have on the Square when I take a mid-day walk.
On some days there is a Farmer's Market set up, flower vendors, more recently a taco truck.
And...as of this week??
A cupcake truck!!!
I noticed it a couple of days ago and today I couldn't resist so I stopped.
They're very new and don't even have a website yet but City Cupcakes is open for business at Trade and Tryon in Charlotte!
This cream horn was calling my name for a mear $3.
YUM!!
All of the delectable treats are made by local bakeries ranging from Suarez to Tizzerts.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm in love with this concept and am glad someone finally did it!
That's why I'm sharing, NOT because I'm being paid!
We'll just see what the general consensus is and if they can hold their own and stay in Uptown.
Because after all, who doesn't need a pumpkin crumble cupcake as a mid-day treat in the Fall.
Right??!!

Today was the first day all week I escaped the office for lunch and I saw this cupcake station! Absolutely amazing idea. And for $3?! Perfect afternoon pick-me-up! Let's have a cupcake date one day next week! xo
