Baked By Melissa (Cupcakes)

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 (Ooey Gooey Cupcake) (Max’s Pick)

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. [...]

Check Out The Internets (Chocri Custom Organic Exotic Chocolate Bars)

This is pretty fucking cool. Basically the site lets you customize your own chocolate bar. We’re not just talking about the wrapper, we’re talking about actually deciding what goes into the bar. You’ll start off with an organic Belgian chocolate base of white or dark chocolates and then choose from over 100 gourmet gourmet organic [...]

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 [...]

Market Of The Week (Dylan’s Candy Bar)

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 [...]

Bouley Markey (Grilled Bacon Sandwich, Salad/Hot Bar, Fresh Lemonade, Gold Chocolate Tart And Macaroons)

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 [...]
