it was the last one left in the coffee room. Lemon blueberry. DAMN THAT WAS GOOD! Contrasted it with the only Crumbs cupcake I had a part of (because it was humongous) a couple months ago. I think it was red velvet cake. They were giving them away free in a Spiderman promotion. It tasted like it came from a commercial bakery. No comparison.
