Celebrate National Vanilla Cupcake Day | Vanilla Bake Shop
Yes, National Vanilla Cupcake day is a “real” thing and I don’t think any of us are all that mad about it? “Why Vanilla Bake Shop in particular” you say? Well, lets start with the most obvious of reasons,*cough cough* the title, but it’s not to go un-noted that the Vanilla team has been positively written up everywhere from Brides magazine to Angeleno, and they go down in cupcake history as one of the competitors on the Food Network Challenge. Treat yo’self with a box of Vanilla Bean/Cinimon Vanilla/Chocolate Vanilla Bean “Cupcake Babies” (mini cupcake morsels) and give Vanilla Cupcake Day the proper justice it deserves.
