The OC Register’s Fast Food Maven is reporting some great news! Those cupcakes that were selling like hotcakes from the kiosk in Downtown Disney this past winter are getting their own permanent location!
While The Cupcake Store‘s main bakery will be in Mission Viejo, CA, they’re also setting up shop in Downtown Disney. Baking will be done at Mission Viejo and shipped to DTD.
The store is shooting for a September 2010 opening!
Head over to the OC Register for a great interview with The Cupcake Store founder Janel Mitchell.

while it’s nice to get a cupcake store in downtown disney, these cupcakes cost $1.50 more than a sprinkles cupcake, $1 more than a crumbs cupcake, and aren’t as good. i’d put it on the same level as a cupcake from ralphs.
Thanks for the info and review, Jon! I wonder what the cost is compared to Magnolia…
ok now.. where is the one for WDW???? Honestly People lets GO!!!!!!! 😀
I am so amazed at this cupcake phenomenon. I would like to see one at WDW, though, even if its an Orlando-based business.
DROOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
While their cupcakes are a little pricey, they are GOOD! I personally love love love the vanilla bean. I would post a picture, but alas I never remember until I’ve eaten all of it!
AJ,
i believe the cupcakes were like $4.75–i think the cupcakes at marceline’s confectionery are just as good, and cheaper.
although, sprinkles newport beach isn’t that far away–20 min drive but it’s right by the beach!
Well, I guess I just learned that there is a Disneyland Downtown Disney. I only ever thought that there was a Walt Disney World Downtown Disney and that was THE Downtown Disney.
It seems as though recently cupcake business have been having a really great amount of customers to keep them open. These don’t look like anything spectacular though.
The only thing worth my while would be if a Starring Rolls Cafe opened outside of Disney World Hollywood Studios. Other than that– don’t bother me with the cupcake nonsense. 😉
Wow – I think this would be my dream job! Baking in and/or near Disney? SIGN ME UP!
While the cupcakes may be good, I cannot see spending close to $5.00 to buy one.
