So you thought the cupcake craze was waaaaay over? Not in Hampton Roads. Local sweet-lovers can't get enough 'cakes, or at least that's what a couple of retailers are hoping.
Rose Fullmer, owner of The Honey Tree children's clothing boutique in the Town Center of Virginia Beach, recently added Cupcake Me, a counter selling the delicacies of local baker Andy McClaskey.
At Hilltop West in Virginia Beach, Just Cupcakes is scheduled to open in early July. Owner Carla Peay Hesselstine plans to offer a daily array of eight flavors, such as Pucker Up Buttercup and Frankly Scarlett.
The newcomers follow in the frosted footsteps of Carolina Cupcakery, which opened in the Edinburgh Commons area of Chesapeake a year ago as the region's first store specializing in the dessert.
Owner Dawn Eskins recently expanded her kitchen to accommodate gluten- and sugar-free baking and to take wholesale orders.

I'm so excited to start working at Just Cupcakes soon! All of our cupcakes are made from scratch using VERY fresh ingredients! We're not one of those bakeries that claims to be "upscale" and "gourmet" but uses cake mix, artificial flavors, and pre-made frosting! For more info about us, see http://justcupcakes.net OR come visit us at the shop when we open in July!
CoCo's?
What about CoCo's Cupcakery on Norfolk Ave in VB? Made from scratch, excellent!
