Whether you like your cupcakes buttery, gluten free or vegan, you can celebrate National Cupcake Day with any number of flavors.
Beyond vanilla, chocolate and red velvet, bakeries all over the world are turning out cupcakes in flavors from lemon meringue to Margarita.
But this list, adapted from the Carolina Cupcakery in Norfolk, Virginia, tops them all..
Truth to tell, we haven’t seen such a long list of flavors from any cupcakery—and this is just a selection. See all 250 flavors.
A thought: Can there be too many cupcake flavors? (Not if your goal is to eat a different flavor every day of the year.)
We present this list as inspiration for everyone who would like to bake some cupcakes on this food holiday…or any other day of the year.
