For the holidays, someone got us seats at Formaggio Kitchen’s Cheese 101 class. By far THE best present we received so far this season!

December 9, 2013 Crumbnut

Well, we tried Cafe de Boston’s version, and now, here is the Crumb’s knockoff of the cronut, the “crumbnut”. While I was bummed out that we were only able to snag the plain version, they were out of the cream or jelly filled kinds, I still ate this pretty happily. The crumbnut was light and […]

November 19, 2013 Wicked Good Cupcakes

I haven’t watched Shark Tank, but mother daughter pair Tracey Noonan and Danielle Desroches appeared on the show in 2013. They partnered with Kevin O’leary of O’leary Ventures and opened up two retail locations, one right in Faneuil Hall. I just happened upon them while walking the mall, and I’m glad I did. The idea […]
