Cupcakes, like babies, are smaller, cuter, and more tempting to nibble on. Indulge your maternal/carniveral instincts with today's Groupon: for $4, you get $10 worth of cupcakes and baked goods at Gimmee Some Sugar, located in downtown Bakersfield.

Stephanie Caughell, owner and executive pastry chef at Gimmee Some Sugar, has been creating beautiful and delicious custom-baked goods for more than 10 years. Step into the bakery for an experience akin to a weekend at your grandmother’s house, with everything made from scratch using quality ingredients and the TV remote nowhere to be found. Cupcakes ($2.50–$5.50 each) come in a variety of combinations and flavors, with each arriving specially tuxedoed in gourmet toppings. Doubly satisfy a sweet tooth with the candy shop cupcakes, featuring favorite sweets such as Oreos and peanut butter cups, or coast into kicked-up campfire classics with the caramel marshmallow s’mores ($4), coated in a layer of chocolate and best enjoyed with the ghost story about the meticulous accountant.

This Groupon can also be applied toward Gimmee Some Sugar’s cake decorating class ($150), or, for those who love custom cakes but hate custom caking, any of the bakery’s custom-made cakes ($39+). Celebrate a birthday, a parole hearing, or a return from a space station with the sugary sustenance of Gimmee Some Sugar.

Gimmee Some Sugar is open Tuesdays through Saturdays.
