Once a year, Cupcake Royale raises the unholy but yummy phantasm of Deathcake Royale, a Valentine's Day treat that boasts a quantity of chocolatey goodness equivalent to the amount of narcotics currently swimming through Amy Winehouse.

You can't miss this new cupcake boutique – just look for the charming chocolate and vanilla striped awnings. The retro-flavored bakery is appropriately located in the Wallingford Center, a converted 19th century schoolhouse. It's a charming affair altogether – perfectly frosted cupcakes are displayed behind a glass case on an old-fashioned white marble counter and coffee and cupcakes are served from aqua and creamy white Fiesta ware. Stainless-steel and aqua-colored chairs look like they came from Ozzie and Harriet's kitchen.
