After a month of eating the most delicious cupcakes New York has to offer, here I am, back in Oberlin with broadened horizons. I have learned that a cupcake is not merely a miniature cake with icing on top--there is much more to them than meets the eye. I went into my cupcake adventure almost positive that my favorite cupcake (from Fairway) could not be beat, but I was quickly proven wrong by all the delectable goods my home city has to offer. Overall, I must say that my favorite cupcake is from Sugar Sweet Sunshine--it was so tasty that I had to go back a second time (I highly recommend the strawberry cream cheese flavor, which I was able to try on my second visit)! Billy's was another favorite, along with my long-time love, Fairway Cafe. And let's not forget the mini cupcakes from Baked by Melissa! In the end, I have learned that there are many, many delicious cupcakes to be had in New York City and there is no way to choose one as the "best," because they are all so different. My cupcake adventure would not have been possible without some help along the way from some dear friends, so I would like to give a special thanks to Harlee Ludwig, Ruby Dienstag, Sophie Zucker, Nick Plett, Sam Asheim, Michele Harris, Emily Glaser, Jeff From, and Tybie Etoy.
