Review: Just Desserts Cupcake Crop

When I got back to school after Christmas break, I had one more present waiting on the doorstep – a Just Desserts Cupcake Crop from Good Vibes!  This thing is completely fucking adorable, and as soon as I saw it on the Good Vibes site, I knew I had to have one.

I expected it to be just a fun novelty item, but the Cupcake Crop seems to be a surprisingly well-made toy.  The handle is wrapped with real leather (mmm, that delicious leather smell ^_^), and the cupcake itself is also all leather.  Officially, the crop is made of nylon (which I’m assuming is the handle), suede, and leather, and it is 24″ (61cm) long.

It doesn’t pack quite as much wallop as some of the other riding crops I’ve tried (’cause the place where the cupcake joins the handle is not very stiff), but it’s nothing to sneeze at either, especially if you’re using the decorated side of the tip to strike with.  That’s one of the cool things about this crop actually – the decorated side of the cupcake is made with different layers of leather and suede, and the texture gives it significantly more sting than the back, which is smooth black leather – so you have two different options with the same toy.

The only downside is that the cupcake “icing” is made of white suede and it’s already looking a little dirty after just testing it out on myself a bit and moving it around the bedroom, and I’m not sure how to clean it.

That’s a really minor issue though, and I can’t wait to use the Just Desserts Cupcake Crop on The Boy; I’m having visions of a mean little schoolgirl scene…  dressing up in knee socks and a little plaid skirt and carrying my Hello Kitty toybag…  tying him up with pink rope, maybe using one of those jawbreaker candy gags…  using my pink bunny fur flogger and the cupcake crop on his ass before I smack him around…  I’m liking this idea, quite a lot.  ^_^
