"After leaving work very early on a Friday, beautiful day might I add, I decided to spend some time perusing around Cypress. I ran into newly opened Gigi 's. The dessert fiend in me squealed. That skinny heifer in my head said, girl you better go to that LA Fitness across the street!!!! But the Chunky Monkey I am wants to sample, rate, and compare every cupcake in the city! If you look at my pics, you can guess who wins more often. It was a super duper nice and knowledgeable lady, Ellen, working the counter. Every cupcake I inquired about, she knew instant full details regarding it. I let her know it was my first time and wondered what the best sellers are. Her first choice (what I chose actually, was wedding cake). They had a sample of strawberry shortcake on the counter. When I tasted it, it was so moist and delicate. It made me super excited to taste my selection. She told me how best the cupcakes travel, but I gave her that girl please face and stated this cupcake wasn 't making it that far. I enjoyed it on one of their 2 tables outside (no place to sit inside sadly). The cupcake was really good, loads of icing (borderline too much for my taste) but I 'm sad to say it wasn 't as moist and delicate as my strawberry bite. I was a bit disappointed but like I stated, it was indeed delicious. $3.25/p or $36 for a dozen. They could also be a bit bigger in my opinion too...just a smidgen for the price tag. The store was never packed but the traffic was continuous in and outs. Considering the time, this place is undoubtedly popular. I 'll be back Gigi...rest assured! It was so many good varieties, I 'm excited to try that salted caramel. But the CM only gets one cuppy cake at a time."
