Goldbelly offers 13 different flavors of these cupcakes by mail. What my friend didn't know is that while I live in New Jersey now, I used to live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, within walking distance of Brooklyn Cupcake (they also have a location in Hollywood, Florida at the Yellow Green Farmers Market). I often wear my Brooklyn Cupcake t-shirt and it always makes me smile, so I was thrilled to get these six jars.
The only downside, in my opinion, is that nowhere in the packaging did it say what type of cupcake it was, but I concluded that it was a chocolate cake with caramel and some kind of very light whipped frosting with coconut. Before posing this, I asked my friend what kind they were and it turns out they were Samoa cupcakes. The official description of them is: "Chocolate cake with our signature coconut cream cheese frosting layered with our coconut custard (Flan) and caramel drizzel topped with toasted coconut..."
I shared one of the jars, eating it with a spoon, and it was delicious. There's really a lot of cupcake in each one. You could eat it yourself, or easily split it.
