EDITOR’S PICK

Cupcakes that Dreams are made of Weincakes

Got a sweet tooth?  Then make a beeline for Weincakes!  We’re in love with the Strawberry Shortcake cupcake (with strawberry filling), but close seconds are Coconut, Salt-Caramel, Red Velvet and Karl’s Karrot…all piled high with icings where flavors pack a punch. Like all the sweet sensations at Weincakes, these cupcakes are made from scratch by  Coronado’s Toni Weinfurtner, a self-taught baker and cook extraordinaire.
