I have been waiting for the official opening date of the new cupcake place in Lake Forest, Frostings. I first reported to you that they had taken over the space where Spicy Thai was and they ahve been under construction since May.

I have been stopping by the space every few days or so to see if there is any progress and they have had the paper on the windows since June. There was one night, however, where one of the papers fell off and I got a glimpse inside and it is has clean lines, dark wood with a nice contemporary feel. Unfortunately, I didn’t have my camera with me. There is plenty of room inside so there won’t be an overcrowding issues at the counter.

Frostings will officially open on July 4th with a soft opening on July 2nd. The owners have a special treat in store for their customers. In addition to 24 different gourmet cupcakes they will also have a line of signature cookies. The shop will also feature a tea, espresso and beverage bar.

More to come on this developing story!
