I picked these up for my aunt and mother a few weeks back. They’re actually a lot smaller than they look, about two bites at best. They were sort of disappointed by the tease, but I was all for it. I’m sort of at the “taste everything but finish nothing” phase of my life and [...]

Sugar, Sweet Sunshine is a bakery on the LES that I’ve been getting cupcakes from for about five years now. I think they’re as good as the cupcakes from most of the other city spots and I think they ape Magnolia’s who might have one of the most overrated products in the city, real talk. [...]

Kumquat Bakery out of Brooklyn is making the most delicious, local, mini cupcakes in NYC. The three flavors that you see above are maple bacon, pumpkin and vanilla. While I thought my favorite out of the bunch would of course be the maple bacon, the pumpkin cupcakes were simply divine. The pumpkin cupcakes, sold only [...]

I know that I haven’t updated the market of the week post for some time so I decided to bring the section back and show you a few things that I picked up from Dylan’s candy store over the past few months. I’m lucky enough to live next to Dylan’s candy bar which happens to [...]

You know how when you build something up in your head with so much anticipation that it basically guarantees that something will usually be a letdown? Well that’s what happened to me recently both with the film “Paranormal Activity” (more on that this weekend) as well as David Bouley’s Bouley Market in Tribeca. Let me [...]

So…….Because I’ve decided that Friday’s current feature (which is a throwback music video) is really easy to do and I’m having a ball doing some of the more in depth stuff on this web site that Friday would also be the food market of the week day. Living in New York City for thirty years [...]

This was part of my mom’s birthday present and although I can’t remember all the flavors, I know there’s rocky road, cherry jubilee, banana cream and cappuccino somewhere in there. Artie Lange and Baba Booey from the Howard Stern show each got to make their own cupcakes as well. I picked up a Baba Booey [...]
