"I Want to Smash My Face in It!"

Behold, Sir Elton John.

These were the words of a very excited 4-year-old girl as she got into her chair and up to the table at Sara Sara Cupcakes. I had the same thoughts, albeit mine were a little more indecent, about the Sir Elton John I was in the midst of enjoying. Things that would make the real Sir Elton John blush (if he were into women).

The Sir Elton John is a cherry cheesecake cupcake, but definitely not typical in either sense. This cupcake was a bit larger than I was expecting. I noticed a couple was sharing one when I came in and did not finish it between the two of them. Admittedly, I did not have that problem. The Sir Elton John had a dense and very moist cherry cheesecake base. The texture of the cake was soft and had a sense of near underdone-ness about it. More like the cheesecake filling was mixed in with cake batter before baking. There was a thin layer of cream cheese frosting, although the taste of it was so light I couldn't tell it was cream cheese while eating it. The cupcake had an eye catching garnish of graham cracker crumbles with cherry pie filling in the center. Deconstructed, this cupcake had no one feature that jumped out and overpowered the rest of them. Put all the components together though and it was the perfect harmony of moist cake, light frosting, and cherry goodness.

At Sara Sara Cupcakes, cupcakes are the only solid consumable but they do have a few beverage selections to rinse your cake down with. If you prefer milk there is a milk bar, complete with a freezer with milk glasses next to it, with regular, chocolate, and strawberry milk. They also offer coffee (straight up coffee, nothing fancy), tea, hot chocolate, bottled water, and soda. After all, it is really all about the cupcakes here.

The atmosphere inside is calm with soft music and it gave me a sense of being in grandma's kitchen. The entire dining area was immaculate and white. White floors, white lighting, white tables, and white chairs. The only pop of color came from the bright pink doorway I came in through. It is hard to imagine how much cleaning must go on after a small child is given a Count Rockula cupcake. I did see a child knock a table and spill some coffee and chocolate milk on the floor. To my surprise no army of elves came out to clean it up straight away. They must wait until all the guests leave or aren't looking. Being Sara Sara Cupcakes is a cupcake business, there is no shortage of children. Which can make it a little less quiet, especially with hardwood everything which can help amplify their excitement.

During the week Sara Sara Cupcakes offer deals such as Date Night, Student Night, and you can't go wrong with $2 Tuesdays. There are two locations in the Oklahoma City Area, one in the Midtown District in OKC and one in Edmond. If you are in need of a sweet treat and a frosty glass of milk, go ahead and stop by Sara Sara Cupcakes.
