Fat Cupcake: with locations in Oregon City, Happy Valley, and Portland

While checking out more local history in Oregon City, we stopped off for cupcakes, as you do.

Fat cupcake is a local business with three locations with a focus on fun and pink confections.

Some of the designs are whimsical, like unicorns and poop emojis...

... but the thing that is most significant is the flavor. It's the first time that I have been to a cupcake place that wasn't disappointing. (Note: I have previously been to four cupcake specific stores  three cities.)

As you select your cupcakes, they are placed with tongs on a shiny platter, which feels like an elegant and appropriate treatment, before going into the pastry box.

We didn't even get anything particularly fancy, sharing some black velvet, white velvet, and a mini-cake, but they were all good, and encouraging of future visits.

They also have cinnamon rolls and cakes and some other options, but there is a lot to be able to said for being able to walk in, get a small treat, and have it be wonderful. That's what Fat Cupcake does.

And they travel!

Accessability: This location is currently under construction, so it is hard to say how navigating normally is, but the door might be difficult for those using mobility aids.

COVID: Everyone was masked, and no one was dining in. While the main concern for COVID is airborne, the use of tongs for handling and packaging the cupcakes is an extra level of hygiene.
