valentine's day Los Angeles visit January 29th-February 1st

I (Rachel) will be in Los Angeles from January 29th to February 1st, probably staying downtown. If any cupcake bakeries would like to have me visit or arrange a tasting/review, please email me at cupcakestakethecake at gmail.com with "LA" in the subject line. Thank you!

I'm making a list of the bakeries and custom cupcake companies I've yet to visit try, like Famous Cupcakes and Blue Cupcake, and hoping I can get to them and meet some people like the women who run Frosted Cupcakery, who I've missed on my last few visits. And also taste cupcakes I discovered last year and adored, like B Sweet Catering and BlakeyCakes. So yes, I will have plenty to blog about during my stay...and maybe even, um, can catch up on posting about November's outstandingly organized (by Bakespace) CupcakeCamp LA.

I'm also looking forward to hopefully getting to eat cupcakes again with our new cupcake correspondent Elise Wallace of The Cupcake Activist, who truly has her pulse on Los Angeles cupcake happenings.
