Daily Delish – Sugar and buttah make my heart flutter

Daily Delish

… what with my increased blood pressure and cholesterol ;) Just kidding… kind of. Everything in moderation — even moderation.

Our pizza lineup wasn’t the only only thing that improved after our NYC trip, our CUPCAKE “best-of” list also expanded!

Known mostly for their incredible, famous Black and White cookies, William Greenberg desserts also claims they have the “best” red velvet cupcake. Always looking for an excuse to make myself sick on frosting, I knew I had to make sure they weren’t making false marketing claims ;)

This was some of the best cream cheese frosting I’ve had. While the cake was incredibly moist and ever-so-sweet, my focus was on the frosting. Diiiiivine. Devouring this bad boy almost felt sinful. I’ll admit, I didn’t finish the “cake” part of it, but aren’t cupcakes just a big excuse to eat frosting anyway?

So I’ve gotta ask — how many of you prefer the CAKE part of a cupcake? Anyone? Bueller? I myself couldn’t imagine not focusing on the frosting, but I’m sure we have some cake-lovers out there, too!

    Haha! LOVE this :) Or anything cupcakes, really… lol

    The frosting really depends on who made the cupcake for me! Or the cake… sometimes it can be TOO rich… sometimes it’s just right! Most of the time, though… it’s the frosting :)

    I hate when there is an equal frosting-cake ratio. Too much frosting grosses me out. I like a thin smear and that’s about it.

    I love EVERYTHING about a cupcake but have to admit that the frosting is the best part. I’m definitely the girl who wants the corner piece of cake because it has two or three times the frosting. ;)

    The frosting is my favorite, but sometimes it’s the combination of the cake and the frosting that really does it for me. Like the classic chocolate frosting and yellow cake combo. Soooooooooo yummy!

    Maybe it’s because I just don’t really like cake but cupcakes are super duper boring to me without icing. I couldn’t avoid it!

    Although strangely enough I really like muffins.

    Me! It is a rare frosting that I don’t remove from the top of my cake in order to focus on the cake itself.
