    Cupcakes at top of the sweet chain

    Whose cupcakes stand tallest in Houston?

    Those bragging rights belong to Ooh La La Dessert Boutique in Katy, whose delicious, dolled-up dreamboats won both best vanilla and best chocolate cupcakes in a recent smackdown hosted by the Houston Press.

    “I'm living my dream,” said Ooh La La owner Vanessa O'Donnell, a hometown Katy girl made good by swirling the creamiest frostings on the moistest cakes. “I love cupcakes. I love decorating. I love to make them. I love to eat them.”

    Just looking at that cupcake added 10 pounds to my hips. :) But I have to agree with the Houston Press -- Ooh La La does have the best cupcakes!
