September 29, 2015 Sugar Sweet Sunshine
Probably one of my favorite cupcake shops in New York. I always try and stop here to grab a cupcake or six. The shop is tiny with only a few tables – but it’s cozy, decorate in 60’s and 70’s decor. The shop opened in 2003 by two friends, Peggy and Debbie. The pistachio is […]

August 11, 2015 Baked Brooklyn
We took the water taxi to Brooklyn. It’s such a great idea – no hour long, hot and sweaty subway ride for us! We hopped on near the South Street Seaport area and took a leisurely cruise to Brooklyn – it was the second stop and it drops you right off at the Fairway Market. We […]

July 28, 2015 Umpleby’s Bakery and Cafe
Every time we head up to Vermont we stop in Hanover, NH to grab a bite to eat. We usually stop at Lou’s but this year decided to mix it up a bit. We tried out Umpleby’s Bakery and Cafe. Owners Charles and Carolyn Umpleby opened the bakery originally in Vermont in 2000, and then […]

July 10, 2015 Tatte Bakery
Owner Tzurit Or opened Tatte in 2007 after moving to the US from Israel in 2004. The small shop in Brookline led to 4 additional locations around Boston/Cambridge and you can even buy Tatte’s pastries online. Brookline’s location has a few tables inside which are a little cramped on most days, but what’s great is […]

June 22, 2015 Cupcake Charlie’s
Cupcake Charlie’s seems to be taking over all of the old cupcake bakeries. In the Natick Collection they took over the old Crumbs and in Falmouth they took over the old CupCapes space. We brought a few home to taste test for dessert. Pictured above is the “Vanilla luvs vanilla” a vanilla cake with vanilla […]

October 2, 2014 Cafe Madeleine
On our way out of town on a Saturday morning, we stopped back in at Cafe Madeleine to try some of their delicious pastries. The almond croissant was by far my favorite. Just perfect – the right amount of sweetness, a little crunch to the outside while being soft and light on the inside. I […]

August 29, 2014 Cafe Madeleine
I was able to pop in to the newly opened Cafe Madeleine on Thursday after work. At 6:30 they were almost fully sold out, a great sign after only being open for 4 days! The space is open and bright, designed by EMBARC studios, the same architecture firm that designed Liquid Art House. I had […]

August 29, 2014 The Standard Baking Company
We spent the day in Portland, getting lunch and walking around. We stopped into the Standard Baking Co. and I was in love instantly. With so many delicious things behind the counter, it was hard to choose what to get. I wanted one of everything! The chocolate hazelnut tart was sweet but not too sweet. […]
