Koo Koo for Kara's Part Deux

After writing my last post, I clearly had to go back and try their monthly special: the Hazelnut Crunch.  Here is the verdict on this sweet treat, available through the end of this month...

Well, of course we couldn't just walk away with a single cupcake.  Let's be serious.  We walked out with the Hazelnut crunch (the object of our initial affection) and a vanilla coconut.  

The Hazelnut had a yummy crunchy topping, atop a simple vanilla cake.  I loved the texture twist - the crunchy and spongy all in one glorious bite.  The hazelnut taste wasn't too overpowering, very subtle.  

My question is this: how do you get it so that cupcake holder doesn't get oily and gross looking?  Kara - can you riddle me that?  (or, really, anyone)






The afterthought in this transaction, was the coconut.  I am a SUCKER for all things coconut, especially when they involve 1) Frosting 2) Cake 3) anything at all on this earth.  Take a look at this awesomeness (you may need sunglasses)







Inside info - it has a delish filling of awesome goodness, otherwise known as lemon and coconut cream.  Do I really NEED to say anything else?




Verdict: 5/5 cupcakes for both of these bad boys.  Go over to Kara's and pick one up for yourself!
