Best Cupcakes EVER !



On my recent trip to New York City, I got to pick up some of the best cupcakes to date.  The perfect cupcake has a moist cake on the bottom with a flavorful icing on top. The perfect idea for the cake to stay moist was to put a filling inside the cake. These cupcakes came from Crumbs Bakery. They have many locations throughout the United States. Even though they mass produce cupcakes they still put attention into every cupcake that they make.  The flavors that I picked up were Cherry Blossom, Cookie Dough, Dulce de Leche, Apple Cobbler, Blackout, and Cosmo. Cherry Blossom is vanilla cake filled with cherry preserves, topped with their signature vanilla cream cheese frosting mixed with cherries and a candied cherry. Cookie Dough is a vanilla cake with chocolate fudge filling covered with their signature vanilla cream cheese frosting mixed with soft chocolate chip cookie pieces and topped with a chocolate chip cookie. Dulce de Leche is chocolate cake filled and topped with caramel cream cheese frosting drizzled with caramel and chocolate. Apple Cobbler is an apple cinnamon cake with apple preserves filling topped with vanilla cream cheese frosting and covered in streusel crumbs. Blackout is a rich chocolate cake filled with fudge mixed with vanilla custard, topped with chocolate cream cheese frosting and chocolate crumbs drizzled with chocolate. Cosmo is raspberry cake with lime accented cream cheese frosting with pink sanding sugar around the rim. It’s Crumbs Bakery’s form of Sex and the City. I will admit I had no specific one that I liked because I loved them all. Their cupcakes are massive and you definitely share them with a friend. They are definitely worth trying and sharing. The shop is very small and when I walked in there was a long line out the door. It was a place that everyone was stopping in when in New York City. The only sad part about their display was they list how many calories are in each cupcake because they have more than 5 locations. I have heard they are opening a location in Philadelphia which I am super excited about.

                    


Check out their website at www.crumbs.com because they have so many locations you can go to.
