We wound up going to four bakeries on Saturday: Connie's in Mount Kisco, Perfect Endings Bakery in Armonk (they were sadly out of cupcakes but had some fun giant cupcakes on display and other yummy stuff - plus they are doing the cake for the Cake Wrecks Barnes & Noble event in October, oh my!!), Dream Cakes Bakery in Cortlandt Manor and Flour & Sun Bakery in Plesantville.
I can't do justice to them all right now but in the interest of getting something posted (will blog more when I have time, sorry, plus post video interview from Flour & Sun), and also didn't get to try all of the over 20 cupcakes we bought, but I will share some photos (have to get permission on the Perfect Endings photos, but can definitely say that they tied with Connie's in the cuteness department - both had very fun, well-decorated, inviting atmospheres that went far beyond cupcakes):
Inside the chocolate peanut butter cupcake from Connie's - rich, gooey, delicious, good for sharing
Cupcakes from Dream Cakes...that I didn't get to try. I guess I'm a bad blogger but maybe my friend can report on how they were. They look pretty but I didn't have such high hopes but who knows?
Cupcake cookies at Flour & Sun
Assorted cupcakes from Flour & Sun Bakery - different people had different favorites but mine was the chocolate raspberry.
Major lesson learned from cupcake crawl: Yes, there is such a thing as too many cupcakes! I had to leave so many in Westchester because alas, I love cupcakes but one thing they really aren't is portable, especially on a hot day when you have many stops. I also was honestly kindof horrifically full of sugar by that point.
