So my aunt turned me on to this new site...err blog (imagine that...I actually found a blog that I enjoy reading!) all about cupcakes!
And who wouldn't like a site about cupcakes? No matter if you like them, hate them, or are indifferent to them...they're still fun! Cupcakes are reminiscent of ones childhood, of all the parties attended and thrown. And if you think way back when to your childhood I'm sure you could remember going into your local supermarket or even corner stores and seeing decorated cupcakes for each different holiday. Christmas normally had green icing with little red holly shaped sprinkles. Easter had pink icing with giant jelly beans. St. Patricks day always had something green, whether green icing or green coconut. Halloween had chocolate cupcakes with bright orange icing and tiny bat sprinkles. Did I cover all the holidays? I'm sure I forgot something...oh yeah, Thanksgiving! I don't remember there being cupcakes for Thanksgiving but I'm sure there were...I just blocked that memory out.
Anywho, this site has another cool feature...it offers links to a bunch of different bakeries in different area (I specifically like NYC cause I'm closest to it). And as it turns out, I've been to two of the many listed bakeries: Billy's and Babycakes, both of which I would recommend to anyone, espcially Babycakes if you like the vegan cupcakes (honestly, I'm not vegan and these cupcakes taste better than most cupcakes I've ever tasted before! Imagine that!)
