Your American Idol is…
What a great surprise last night!! I must say I wasn’t expecting it.
As far as the great Cupcake Idol competition. I brought 12 cupcakes with me, 6 with DA’s face on them and 6 with DC’s face. I came home with 4 David Archuletta cupcakes. And one of the people who took a DA cupcake only did so because there were not DC cupcakes left. So I’d say that David Cook was the clear winner in more than one competition last night.
And of course, everyone loved the cupcakes. In my arsenal of cupcake recipes, this one is definitely my hero. I’ve probably made these cupcakes 10 times in 5 months. As I mentioned, they always turn our perfectly and they’re so easy to whip up.
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
Interesting to know those things really happen! So what was your official feedback, and had everyone been raving about the food before the announcement? Hubby and I have eaten the Wanchai Ferry Sweet & Sour Chicken and weren’t thrilled with it (tasted very sweet and goopy, just overall processed). I guess it’s all psychological!
Hahahaha that’s so funny that they did a little switch on you. Like you pointed out, I guess that is how they did the Pizza Hut commercials.
I think you did a great, fair recap of the event. It was at least really nice to run into you there! And you got some great pictures.
Sarah – I updated my post to include more feedback. As I mentioned, we were discussing how the first two courses were much better than the entrees. At least at our table, there was no raving.
I’m glad you had fun, although I’m a bit perplexed that they thought they could fool foodies with a frozen dinner! I still haven’t been to Flour and really need to go – I feel like I’m a bad Boston blogger!
I agree Kerstin, most food bloggers probably don’t eat many frozen entrees… But it definitely wasn’t all food bloggers.
I heard about this event from Megan and it sounds interesting to say the least. It just seems like GM didn’t do their research because that is not similar to Myers + Chang’s food! Either way, at least you had fun with some other food bloggers!
