sugar sweet sunshine bakery


new york, ny

website

i've never really liked frosting (in contrast to my brother, sister, and nephew who could eat tubs of the stuff.) at weddings or birthday parties, i always scrape off the frosting before eating the cake. i'm the kind of person that walks into a cupcake shop and requests unfrosted cupcakes. (the usual response is "um, isn't that a muffin?"). then JINNY (she deserves all caps for this one) introduced me to sugar sweet sunshine bakery cupcakes and i've been a frosted cupcake fanatic ever since.

sugar sweet sunshine's frosting is amazing - it has just the right amount of sweetness. when fresh, the cake is extremely moist and tasty. even derek likes the cupcakes here. my favorite cupcake is bob. he's a yellow cake with chocolate almond buttercream. the frosting tastes like rich chocolate ice cream, which can be a bit intense but it is balanced out by the yellow cake. skip magnolia bakery and its ridiculous line and sugary frosting. in my humble opinion, bob is the perfect cupcake.
