It's A CupCake has new digs

Sweets slinger It's A CupCake, which has been operating out of 958 N. Second Street since this past summer, is getting ready to open a brand-new retail space at 219 W. Girard Avenue either this weekend or on Tuesday, according to owner Mona Wilson. She and partner Erica Adams will offer a full array of dessert cupcakes, and there'll also be a retail aspect to the store (formerly run as the boutique Homebody), featuring giftable items like baby clothes candles, glassware, toys and pet stuff (dog-friendly cupcakes are on the way). They'll be open Tuesday to Saturday from 11 to 6.

Since the new space is not certified at this time to handle extensive cookery, Quince Fine Foods, right down the block at 209 W. Girard, will be the exclusive retailer of IAC's savory cupcake lineup, which includes varieties like buffalo chicken, Southwestern (spicy corn base, tomatoes, onions, lime chicken black bean sauce) and "Sassy Salmon" (spicy corn base, smoked salmon, Champagne mustard dill sauce).
