Sweet Sensations Pastry - best chocolate cupcake

Sweet Sensations opened in the old Sweet Honeybee spot on Montrose a couple of months ago. It's very unassuming - you almost don't notice it. I've only tried the cupcakes there so far. My husband is a yellow cake with white buttercream guy and loves their version. I am all about chocolate. When I tried the chocolate cupcake with chocolate buttercream, I thought the cake part was excellent, but the buttrcream lacked any rich chocolate flavor. However, they make a chocolate ganache frosting which is great. If you ask them to make a chocolate cupcake with ganache frosting, they are happy to do it. And seriously, this combo may be the best cupcake I've ever had.
