Do I Smell Cake? - Cupcake Delights - Mount Dora Florida


Let me start off by saying that I am not a big cupcake fan. Cupcakes are usually crusty, small, and you have to peel the paper peel off . No just give me a big slice of moist 4 layer cake and I will be happy. The Cupcake Delights Shop located at 112 E Fifth Ave, in Mount Dora Florida might have changed some of that.
They rotate between flavors and display at least 14 flavors of cupcakes a day.
The cupcakes are flavorful and delicious. You will definitely have trouble making up your mind just which tasty sensation you will pick. My wife chose three for us. We had a Key Lime Delight, which is yellow cake, stuffed with butter cream, key lime butter cream, and graham cracker, and
sprinkled with green sugar, a Peanut Butter Crunch and a Coconut Dream.
You can drive yourself crazy and go to their link by clicking the title, or better yet, just go there and try them all.

A Place A Guy Can Feel Comfortable - The Frosty Mug-Mount Dora Fla.



The town of Mount Dora Florida is filled with little shops, and interesting restaurants.
I was there this winter with my Mother In Law and wife. The town is located in Lake County in central Florida and is a whopping 184 above sea level, which is pretty high for Florida. After going from shop to shop, a guy can build up quite an appetite. Lets face it, it's not exactly what guys like to do. We like to eat. Now the Mother In Law was looking at a Tea Room she had frequented a few times. I was hesitant. The waiter standing outside tried to make me feel more comfortable. "Sure, it's fine. Guys eat here all the time. What little finger sandwich would you like, and which frilly hat do you want to put on???" We were out of there. As we walked down the street, we found a place called The Frosty Mug.The Frosty Mug bills themselves as an Icelandic restaurant and grill.
They had an interesting menu, and the surroundings looked interesting. Very Viking looking. You could eat open air, or in the restaurant. The food was outstanding. My Mother In Law got a pulled pork panini and sweet potato fries. I got the fish and chips and my wife got a Good French Man sandwich. All were happy. We would definitely go back. If you get a chance, try out the Frosty Mug. You can find them on the web at: http://www.thefrostymug.com/ or click on the title.
