It's nearly officially fall in Amarillo. Things have been pumpkin-spiced for a few weeks now. The Halloween decorations are popping up all over the place. It's a great time of the year.

The temperatures keep fluctuating, which is something we really have started to come to expect. We get cold temps, and then it heats back up. Oh, how we love as the fall season starts to arrive.

That is how you know you have made it past summer. The more you shop, the more the scent lingers in your nose. You are not mad about it.

Pumpkin Spice Meets Viral Sweet

That introduction got me excited for what The Ruffled Cup just put out on social media:

When DUBAI met PUMPKIN
These delicious cupcakes are going out in the case today! Our yummy pumpkin cake with a ring of chocolate buttercream topped with a huge scoop of pistachio Dubai filling!
So as of today, you can stop by The Ruffled Cup in Amarillo to get your pumpkin version of an internet sensation. I am pretty ready to give it a try. I would say it would be worth it to go just to try some, but as luck would have it, I have to stop by anyway to get birthday cupcakes for the family. So a win in my book.
