New York is my favorite city in the world, so instead of jetting around in public transportation or taxis, I like to walk around so that I can immediately explore anything that looks interesting. I loosely base my routes around bakeries and stores that I want to check out. When I have a whole day off, I actually like aiming for places that are far away from each other, b/c it gives me exercise and a chance for my palate and stomach to relax between tastings.

You can’t walk 50 feet in New York City without running into a cupcake. Over the past eight years, the one-handed gateau has taken over not just ours, but several other urban centers, toppling the scone, the muffin, and the danish as the new baked good of choice and driving the replacement of old-style bakeries with colorful boutique cupcake shops. If nothing else, the 2000’s are going to go down in history as The Cupcake Decade, mark my words.

Five co-workers and I did a taste comparison. One day I brought in cupcakes from Bay Ridge, the next day a co-worker brought in Buttercup, so the cupcakes were not eaten side by side. Still, there were clearly some differences.
