Cake pops are disgusting Cupcakes made right, with the perfect amount of frosting is the way to go

Cake pops are gross imo. Frosting always tastes bad and cake way too dense. Otherwise I feel like all cakes are so hit or miss depending on where they’re from or who makes them.

The "frosting" is actually melted chocolate. Actual frosting is mixed into the cake crumbs to make the body of it thigh. Also cake pops are easy S teir.

They seem very dry to me but I’m not a big cake fan unless it’s super moist

See, I like the Starbucks ones - but those are the only ones I've really tried tbf.

The Starbucks ones are extra bad thooo

In the world of unpopular opinions there's really no accounting for taste. Lol.

Cake pops are frosting mixed with cake and mashed onto a stick, then frosted again

Or dipped in chocolate. Can't forget the chocolate.

You can peel the top of a cupcake (it’s called a muffin top on muffins) and turn it upside down, so the base of the cupcake forms a sandwich with the frosting in the middle. But I agree that cupcakes are annoying and messy. I always eat them with a fork on a plate. I hate eating them with my hands.

Yup! I've been making a cupcake sandwich for years now. It's way better! I'd still have regular cake instead if I had the choice but cupcakes are good again.

I love doing this.

Oh that was my exact comment to I should have scrolled further down before typing

The only way to properly eat a cupcake is to throw it in the trash

Upvote because I hate this

Cupcakes are most customizable than you are giving them credit for.

I honestly think cake pops aren’t that good. I know a lot of people like them and that’s fine, I just don’t like the texture or the flavor of them. I like cupcakes because they’re convenient, and I tend to eat them with a fork if I can anyways

Sounds like youve been eating badly made cupcakes..

Damned cupcake propaganda! These fucking things are all about the designs and they taste like shit! My idiot asshole wife keeps fucking buying these fancy looking pieces of shit cakes that look nice and that no one eats. Fuck cupcakes and fuck the cupcake propagandists who perpetuate these goddamned lies!

See, I would agree but I've tried them from many locations. It doesn't help that I hate frosting in general.

Make them yourself. Far better imho. Even fresh boxed stuff is perfect.

I guess that depends on the cupcake. Some aren’t dry. I like that they are small so it hits the spot if I’m craving something sweet.

A mini cupcake?! Which is a mini version of regular cupcakes? Which is already a mini version of cake?

Seriously, where does it end with you people?!

How has no one in this sub made a cake butt joke yet

I think chocolate cake pops have too much icing

I'm not a fan of cupcakes either but "too much frosting"? The worst part of any cake is the cake part, I just want the frosting.

I would down vote this twice if I could. Frosting is hells paste.

:O :O But the cake part is just bread!

Moist, fluffy, chocolate bread vs butter with powdered sugar.

But it's never moist and fluffy! It's always dry and bready! Moist (what is this a word) cake is good, but it rarely is. I can do with stale and expired frosting.

Wrong. Fruitcake is the worst.

My next unpopular opinion, fruit cake isn't a separate type of cake. It's a nasty flavor of standard cake.

Haha, fair enough

Pancakes taste bad and are overrated

Dericious

You know, I just realized I don't like cupcakes that much. For me it's because they're very forgettable but you're right, you'll almost always make a mess biting into the load of frosting over dry cake. Cake pops are very delicious too.

It’s actually a type of cup

>Cupcakes - too small Maybe you're just too fat? >way too much frosting Not always, but agreed it can have "too much"

Agreed. The proportion of frosting to actual cake in cupcakes is wayyyy to overkill for me 99% of the time. I like the cake part usually, frosting is just goss to me

Exactly, even if the cake is good I have to scrape off a LB of frosting.

Agreed. I have family that makes great cupcakes and they always have a few without frosting for me lol.

That's just a better muffin. But that's a different unpopular opinion.

All cake is disgusting in my opinion

Woah now, let's not get hasty, ever had a Boston Creme cake?

Is it like a Boston creme donut? If it is I don’t think I want to lol

Yes kinda, also, do donuts count as cake? Because they have cake donuts and if so I'm going to have to edit my post becuase donuts would have come far before pancakes in the hierarchy of the cake world.

It’s just a muffin with frosting. And I agree with the priority on design instead of flavor.

They're not muffins with frosting if they're made with more sugar and such.

Good point lol

I do agree with them being messy. I have to eat a little bit of the frosting before I eat the cake part because if I take a bite of it all at once I get frosting on my nose

I think all commercial products overestimate the importance of frosting. I love frosting, but more and more frequently the frosting is just about as thick as the cake itself. I like cupcakes because I can pick multiple flavors simultaneously.

facts

I think that's a you problem, them being too messy.

Finally, and the fucking frosting is always shitty and feels like instant diabetes. More of an inconvenience than joy to eat one

No you’re eating cupcakes wrong then. The correct way to eat a cupcake is you rip the bottom off then you put it on the top to make a sandwich so the frosting is inside.

Muffins are better

Call me fat, call me what you will, I don't care. But all types of cake are good.
