Crumbs Can Be Pretty And Sweet

Absolutely! And please believe me because not all Crumbs are the same. At least, not these crumbs. I may have been a little delayed on taking a trek to a Crumbs Bake Shop, but at least, now I know that I will no longer be under the mercy and be dependent on my friend’s assistance on sending me some Sprinkles Cupcakes – the cupcake store in Beverly Hills that we discovered when we stayed at the Four Season’s Hotel in 2006.  Yes, I used to get Sprinkles cupcakes shipped by my friend to me via UPS same day service. This is something that I haven’t done  for a long time because I thought that it was already becoming a burden on my friend.

As I mentioned in my previous post, a visit to Crumbs was on our itinerary last Saturday. They have several branches in Manhattan, and although, the store front is quaint and tiny, it was loaded with yummy treats inside.

I was very excited to finally ‘test drive’ these cupcakes. Since, I didn’t bake last Friday, Saturday and Sunday night’s after dinner treat was of course, two flavors of these cupcakes (one each for us for the two nights). They offer a lot of flavors, it was not easy to decide which ones to try first.

I will let you know which flavors we picked on my next post. Of course, I assume you are also curious to know how we rate these treats based on our tastes. I’m just thankful that there is no branch right within our vicinity because I doubt it if I can control my cravings for these cupcakes if they are available close by. I don’t want to be dependent on the best weight loss pills available in the market just yet, or should I say not ever. But at the rate I’m going (stuffing myself with all these decadent treats) it won’t be a surprise if I find myself retracting that statement  “not ever” in the near future.
