Deprived of nourishment in the womb by stronger, full-size cakes, cupcakes have overcome their physical shortcomings by maintaining dignity, even when covered in sprinkles. Give a high-five to the little guy with today's Groupon: for $4, you get $10 worth of cupcakes, cookies, and treats at Cupcake Love, which has locations in Escondido and Solana Beach. The confectionery connoisseurs at Cupcake Love concoct a plethora of flavorful treats and rotate a dozen flavors every day. Sink sweet fangs into a regular cupcake ($3.25) or a reduced-size love-bite cupcake ($2). Though the storefront's flavors, like penny-stock quotes and Zodiac signs, are ever-changing, frequent favorites include the chocolate-peanut-butter ecstasy, chocolate-amaretto, and red-velvet. Behind the scenes, skilled bakers infuse the scrumptious sugaries with quality imported ingredients, including cinnamon from Vietnam, chocolate from Belgium, and mascot hugs from Disneyland.

- Love may not be perfect, but Cupcake Love surely is. – San Diego's Best 2010
- I had really wanted to strawberry one, but unfortunately they were out. The girl at the counter ended up giving us 6 extra mini cupcakes as well just to try out some of the other flavors! She was super friendly and that pretty much just made my day. – Maylin C., Yelp
