Cupcake Royale in Seattle, Washington

Cupcakes, ice cream and coffee. Could it get much better? Well, there is also a chocolate store attached to it, so I would say yes.

Cupcake Royale is located just a block away from Pike Place Market in downtown Seattle. The pink and brown store front is adorable and the décor inside is just as cute!

I was in cupcake heaven! They have so many amazing flavors to choose from! Salted caramel is their best seller and I can see why. I judge a cupcake by its frosting. Honestly, I see the cake as a gateway to the buttercream. These flavors had me drooling like a dog anticipating a treat!

I finally decided on these two ‘babycakes’. The double chocolate was amazing! The soft, moist cake had great flavor and you can’t beat fudgy, chocolate frosting! The second one I tried was called the “compost cupcake.” The frosting is literally a mixture of everything: coconut, oats, coffee, chocolate chips, vanilla cake crumbs and potato chip crumbs! This unexpected combination creates a sweet and salty taste. LOVED it!

They also sell cute coffee mugs and T-shirts. I couldn’t pass this one up because it includes three things I love: cupcakes, pink and Seattle!

I rate Cupcake Royale 5 out of 5 cupcakes!
