Step up to the screen, scroll through the long list of cupcake options — an ever changing assortment including gluten free, vegan and even dog friendly varieties — press purchase, swipe your credit card, and within a few seconds a revolving door spins around to reveal a small box containing your cupcake of choice.
And no, there is not a little Russian woman behind the revolving door dispensing cupcakes by hand despite the belief of my companion on the night we visited. The machine is fully automated, waiting to satisfy your cupcake craving — for $4 a pop.
