Sugarbelle
This is not the bakery of your childhood, when you enter
Sugarbelle your nose is not tantalized by the scents of sweet treats baking, and
the elegant design gives the feeling of walking into a high end salon rather
than a bakery but then your eyes catch a glimpse of the decadent cupcakes that
fill the glass case at the front of store. Believe me, there is no shortage of flavor
variety at Sugarbelle. We have noticed a trend at many of the cupcake bakeries
we visit; if you want a variety of flavors, weekends are the time to visit,
however this was not the case at Sugarbelle in Glastonbury
We started with the Lemon Cupcake all agreeing that the cake
was moist and had just the right amount of lemon flavor; however we also all
agreed that the lemon frosting seemed to be lacking in flavor and texture.
Todd felt that the Boston Cream Cupcake was the best
executed cupcake not only at Sugarbelle but of the cupcakes we have tested so
far. “If you like Boston cream pie or Boston
The third we tested was the Cookie Dough, a very creative
moist cupcake with a delicious creamy frosting topped with a chocolate chip cookie.
At the bottom of the cake, is a hidden little treat of a cookie dough base.
Although flavor wise this was Anne Marie, Aidan, Molly, and Bridget’s favorite,
we all agree that this was the hardest of the three cupcakes to eat. The cookie dough bottom doesn’t stick to the
cake but crumbles right off the bottom. This is a cupcake that should probably be
eaten with a fork but Sugarbelle does not supply forks to their customers, but
when all is said and done it is all about the flavor and Sugarbelle is full of
flavor!
Sugarbelle has just opened a second store in West Hartford, CT.
