Yes, Morristown, today is "National Cupcake Day." Here are several places in town to celebrate. And, hey, if you're not a cupcake fan, remember: this is National Fruitcake Month, as well.

1. Rockin' Joes may be known for a cup of Joe, but take a peek in the dessert case - you'll see some delicious delicacies. Red Velvet is a go-to but the seasonal cupcakes tend to be the most popular.

2. Cake Artist Cafe is a new addition to the downtown area but as the name says, its desserts are quite a piece of art. With a bunch of different choices, this is the place to go for cupcake options. 

3. The Buttery Bake Shoppe on Eastman Street personalizes cakes for every occassion but dabbles in cupcakes for special events. Like the Cake Artist Cafe, The Buttery Bake Shoppe's products are darn pretty, and look too good to eat!
