Tour de Cupcake 2010

Tour de Cupcake 2010: A day of cupcake joy.

My PIFC and I spent all of the 3rd of July eating cupcakes. We ventured from one location to the next, buying cupcakes and consuming them. In the end, we only had three cupcakes each, but that was more than enough to kill my desire for cupcakes for another few days. Now, it's not that they were bad or anything - in fact, quite the contrary is true. However, eating pretty much nothing but cupcakes for a day chips away at your sweet tooth.

At Wegman's, we sampled some silly-looking confections that were quite delicious.

Later, we visited Barnes & Noble, where we picked up a chocolate cupcake made by The Cheesecake Factory.

Finally, we bought "Fresh Bakery" cupcakes from a kiosk at Towson Town Center.

THE WINNER!!!In the end, the clear winner, by knockout in the third round picked unanimously by us was... Fresh Bakery. The cupcakes were both the most attractive and the tastiest!

Another day of delicious desserts...

The Falls Rd-Greenspring-Mt. Washington area is so rife with delicious dessert foods, I'm not sure if I can ever "collect them all". But, as long as they're there, the internet exists, and I'm alive, I'll keep writing about the best ones. Or the worst ones.[1]

Today, I'm writing about "Bonjour French Bakery & Cafe" on Fall Rd. This place is a quaint little building, adorned with cute things and drowned in purple paint. The color really makes it stand out from just being another little old house on Fall Rd. Once you drive by it, you'll probably never forget where it is... And, if you do, you'll find it again pretty easily. But I digress, as this is not called "the exteri0r dec0rati0n bl0g".

So, what does this place sell? All sorts of delicious dessert foods. They had pies, cakes, cookies, pastries - and even dog treats!

I got a delicious chocolate mousse cupcake, which was one of the most velvety soft chocolate things I've ever had. The icing part was smooth and full, and the cake part was chewy, yet mushy. But that's not even the beginning of how awesome this place is! You see, my PIFC got something so much more awesome than that.

My PIFC got some sort-of mocha dessert with whipped cream... That came in an edible chocolate tea cup.

I recommend this tiny bakery to anybody that likes delicious sweet stuff.
