Diners are also a pretty good place. The desserts are usually somewhat generic repeatable things but they are of a consistently decent quality, and as you point out sold by the slice.

It seems like every time I find a favorite place they just disappear.

We (me, wife and 3yo) were driving through a fairly urban area. There was this little sign outside this place that said vegan spiced chai cupcakes. I'm not vegan, I'm not vegetarian, but what I have found is that if a place says they've got vegan cupcakes or vegan cookies, somebody has been working on that taste and texture for years to get it right.

They were absolutely the best cupcakes I've ever had in my life. The store closed up shop after about 6 months.
