It was a nice coincidence that my wedding photographers studio was a stones throw away from The Cupcakery and Cities Cupcakes.
It was in a posh looking strip mall
The cupcakes were good but they were a little simple for the price
I chose a Summer Crush
and a Pink Lemonade
I prefer Cities Cupcakes
I love their frosting shots! I had a Savannah (the smores one)
They have a lot of flavors but only bake a selection each day
Carmel was excellent
Miami (Lemon) was very good. I also had an Orlando but my sister ate it without taking a picture.
Now for the more weird and wacky. This isn't wacky but I love the rocking chairs at Charlotte airport.
Bubblegum pudding?
Cake flavored ice cream? yes please!
We got my wedding favors from Schakolad!
They have everything!
Alex tried a chocolate covered pretzel. My dad and I got some of their gelato. The one we went to did a $1 special of one item each day of the week. The day we went was a $1 for a scoop of gelato.
This isn't a good picture. We had a nice box of 3 chocolate truffles with a gold bow for our wedding favors.
There are a lot of chain restaurants where I was in Tennessee (the local places are all great BBQ joints) but I never get to go to these places so it was great! I did find a few gems though. I had this really great Monte Cristo sandwich at Cheddar's.
and Strawberry Lemonade
Not as exciting but very good Raspberry Swirl cake at Starbucks
Update: I forgot to add these 2 pictures from Sweet Celebrations. The roast beef sandwich with jus was so tasty.
They have a wide selection of desserts. This cupcake was really cute.
One of my favorite places we went was the Apple Barn in Pigeon Forge. They make pies, candy, wine, jams and pretty much sell every apple knick knack you can think of.
The extensive case of jams
We went to the Cider Bar and had apple snacks. The apple donuts were very good!
Apple Pie
Fried Apple Pie
Apple Dumpling
Cake flavored ice cream? yes please!
Cheeseburger potato chips? Not so sure about those.
No guns allowed inside!
This was in Aruba. Jackie Chan shampoo!?
The food selection in Aruba was catered towards Americans which is ok since I don't get this stuff in the UK. Fried bananas at Texas de Brazil
Please, no more meat or I'll explode.
But there's always room for banana pie!
Fried ice cream at Sawasdee
It was good but could have been hotter on the outside. Food there was pretty good too.
My favorite of the trip fried Oreos at Iguana Joe's
I went back on our last night for just dessert. I'm going to lay off the fried foods for awhile I think...
