My cupcake-loving friend Colleen told me that we were honored with a mention on The Ron and Fez Show the other day on XM Radio. Thank you!
I'm especially excited to try the Ron Bennington cupcake at Molly's Cupcakes at our Meetup this Sunday. Or, more specifically, via Wikipedia:
Bennington has his own cupcake at Molly's Cupcakes in Chicago, Illinois called the "Ron Bennington's 'I've Got My Own Cupcake' " cupcake, which is made with a combination of peanut butter, butterscotch and chocolate. It is the best selling cupcake at Molly's.
When I do my Molly's Cupcakes interview, I'll be sure to ask about this one...when I'm done eating one. Or three.
And look at this New Yorkers, from their message boards. In celebration of Second Annual Get off the Internet and Get into the Sun Day:
September 12, 2009
Sheep's Meadow (hopefully under the big tree on the field)
11:00 AM - 5 PM
Bring your own picnic items, blankets and games!
Leave the Internet at home!
There will be Ron Bennington Cupcakes, courtesy of Foster (or Rob B)
Here's what The Chocolate and Peanut Butter Gallery had to say about it (actually, they had lots more to say about it, so see their site for the full review):
The filling: The peanut butter filling didn’t taste like there was any sugar or butter mixed in, as is the norm with most peanut butter fillings and icings. If there were other ingredients, they did a great job hiding it because it tasted very, very peanut buttery. I’m a little confused by the cupcake’s description - it looks like it says PB & Butterscotch filling, but I could have sworn they were filled with straight peanut butter. Whatever the case, the filling was great.
The ganache: The ganache topping was wonderfully chocolatey and thick. One thing that’s hard about loving very dark chocolate is that most of the time when I order a dark chocolate dessert from somewhere, it’s too sweet, and not dark / bitter enough. Half the time I need to chase my dessert with a bite of real dark chocolate to satisfy my sweet tooth, which is sad. But halfway into this cupcake I was ready for a glass of milk and a nap. It was awesome.
This sounds beyond delicious. So, Ron Bennington, if you're reading this, let us know at cupcakestakethecake at gmail.com - I'd be happy to bring home some of your namesake cupcakes and drop them off at the studio on Monday!
