Another cupcake truck… another cupcake… ho hum. My personal opinion is that if you have a food truck, your product still has to be able to sing on its own, without the novelty. The cake was pretty good. It was nice and light and melted in your mouth. The icing was just«meh». I liked that they didn’t over-ice the cake, but it could have used some more peanut butter flavour. It was also a bit warm which made everything feel really goopy. I’m sure the temperature was due to the fact that they’re serving out of a running truck, but if that’s how you want to serve it, you have to figure out how to regulate things. A good treat if I happen to pass it, but I wouldn’t hunt it down.

Cupcakes that will come to me?(Sort of). Hell yes! This business combines 2 trends that I love(food trucks + cupcakes). The spectrum of cupcakes ranges from inedible to spectacular. From oh-my-God-I-think-I-just-ate-a-pound-of-butter to light cake base and whipped icing(the way I like it) — the variance is like day and night. The ones at Pretty Sweet are 2/$ 5 which is on par in terms of pricing for cupcakes in Toronto. If there WAS one thing I’d complain about it’s that they’re not the most environmentally friendly, using plastic containers for their packaging. I like that they don’t use heavy buttercream and instead use a whipped icing. It’s much lighter. The cake base is really moist. So far my favourites are the Salted Caramel + Chocolate and Cherry Bomb(take on a Black Forest cake). Yummy!

Awesome cupcakes, I had the chocolate-vanilla at U of T’s Food Truck Friday. The cake is dense and moist, and the icing was a slightly odd texture but quite palatable. I’d love to pair the cake with a dense buttercream icing for maximum decadence. I’ll be keeping an eye on their twitter(@prettysweet_to) to hopefully catch them again soon.

TIFF food trucks night four, round three. To finish of this night I bought a red velvet cupcake. The cupcakes are smaller than what you’ll find at other places around the city, but so is the price. At $ 2.75 this is a great price. The cake was perfectly moist and didn’t crumble. The cream cheese icing was smooth and creamy and wasn’t overly sweetened.
