    Definitely taste. Who gives a feck what it looks like, as long as it's in my belly!

    Taste. When I was looking for a place to make my wedding cake, I was so surprised that they were all so focused on looks. That is *so* not how I live my life.

    Taste is more important! Who wants a pretty one that's all dried out and the frosting tastes like metal? :flowerforyou:

    Taste over looks. You can always eat them in the dark if they offend! lol

    It's the looks that grabs my attention, but it's the taste that keeps me interested.

    I'm weird...I actually don't like cupcakes...or cake in general...so I guess I'd say looks. I'd want it to look pretty while I look at it wondering if you have any pie and ice cream.

    Taste. I have to run my tongue across it first, and it better be good!

    Taste. Who wants to eat something that tastes like dirt?

    Taste, because I'm going to destroy it anyway.

    ETA: Oh, in cupcakes... yeah, still taste.

    When it comes to me buying, looks. It has to look REEALLLY good for me to buy it. I would pick a good looking cupcake I've never tasted over a cupcake that I know is yummy.

    ETA: That being said, if I've already tasted both and the ugly one tastes better.. then the ugly one it is.

    Taste... if it's the most gorgeous thing you have ever seen and it tastes like chalk and ear wax then it would be spit out and never looked at again.

    But a cruddy looking cupcake with the most insanely good flavor would win everytime and I could give a dayum if it wasn't pretty.

    Both, if it looks ugly I won't be tasting it.

    I don't care for cupcakes or cake either, pie is where it's at!

    Taste. I've have some very pretty looking cupcakes that weren't delicious at all, which is something very sad to say about a cupcake.

    Unrelated...I started looking around the My Food Looks Funny site and saw this <on phone can't get pic link>:

    I laughed so hard and so much. The tears were streaming for a good 3 minutes. I don't know why it triggered that for me but GOOD GOD it was so evil it was funny!

    As long as the cupcake has a good personality and a good heart I will eat it.

    Same with women.
