What to eat: As far as we can tell, Sweet Box makes some of the best cupcakes in Philly: orange Creamsicle, chocolate peanut butter, thin mint, strawberries and champagne, chocolate Guinness Stout with whiskey filling and Baileys Irish Cream frosting, espresso hazelnut praline, bacon maple, beer infused, cayenne cinnamon. All served up by the lovely - yet extremely hardworking - Gretchen Fantini. If she doesn't make a flavor you like, your taste buds are on the fritz. Trust us.
Don't miss: Based on the amount of strawberries Fantini purees, she believes her strawberries-and-champagne cupcakes are a best-seller. Other tasty treats on the menu include red velvet butter cake, brownies, cookies and bars. "I make my mom's banana pudding, and it's pretty amazing," she said.
Cupcake philosophy: "A cupcake flavor will not make it to the menu unless it passes my criteria: moist, unique and full of flavor. When I decided to start the cupcake truck, I wanted to make cupcakes exactly like that fabulous piece of cake you would get at your favorite restaurant. The only difference is, my slice of cake is encased in a brown wrapper."
