These days, it seems that every city worth its salt has to have a cupcake specialist. In Toronto, it's The Cupcake Shoppe. Every day, cupcakes are baked and topped with a thick swirl of buttercream, ensuring freshness, and there are 17 flavors (all completely nut-free) from which to choose. Try the Sleepless in Toronto (chocolate cake with coffee butterceram), the Eh? (vanilla cake with maple buttercream), or the Curious George (chocolate or vanilla cake with banana buttercream).
