Sprinkles Beverly Hills
Cupcakes are baked daily so they definitely taste fresh.
Just make sure you dont bring a lot of money or youll buy the whole store.
Both times I've ordered over the phone, the staff has been incredibly nice and attentive, they really couldn't make it any easier. The one time they were delivered to the office, they showed up on time and in perfect condition.
Thank you for reminding me that people can still bake and do it right. While the prices are slightly steep, the tastiness and creativity (and wonderfully nice sales people) make these little lovelies worth every delicious penny!
- The red velvet is one of the best i've ever tried; the cake was nice and moist, and the frosting didn't have that sour cream tang to it that i usually dislike.

Xooro-churro
There is something VERY rewarding about having high hopes for a place and being thoroughly satisfied once I've had the chance to try it out. I can say that about Xooro; it is one of my new favorite places.
They have a nice variety of choices so there's always something to choose from.
Also, you can go shopping afterwards right up Third Street Promenade!
Xooro opened this week! Paul and I stopped in last night after dinner to check out the place and to bring home some treats. We got the 'xooro' original. It was quite good! It was based on a traditional churro with a vanilla filling inside on the outside cinnamon brown sugary. So delicious. Paul ask for the mexican hot chocolate OOOOMMMMGGGGGG!!! the best hot chocolate ever, and I mean it. Only because I wasn't at home, but I want to dip my original xooro into the hot chocolate and give a big bite. mmm
We tried to order the triple chocolate xooro but didn't realize until we got home that we actually ended up with the peanut butter xooro which was just OK. Paul didn't like it at all! but I do.
Sorry to be harsh but how can you mix up xooros when you work in a churro store? OK...the store has only been opened for a few days, I will give her that.
The prices are what you might expect for a Santa Monica cake shop, around $4.20 to $4.55 each. Expensive!
Xooros are the new no guilt indulgence. Easier to acquire and not large enough to result in guilty feelings....
