Congrats Rachel Kramer Bussel! Rachel spent a week blogging here earlier this month and so I wanted to let you know that she was just quoted in a New York Times article about cupcakes. In case you didn't know, Rachel wears two hats - sex blogger and cupcake lover. Although I would love to see her quoted in the New York Times for something related to fetishes or erotica, I'll take cupcakes. Besides, there's nothing I love more than sitting around on a Sunday morning and reading all about cupcakes. It was so inspiring, I made muffins (close enough) for breakfast.The article is one of those New York Times puff pieces that explores something that only New Yorkers could possibly care about - the proliferation of cupcakes in our dear city and whether or not we should be eating them (empty carbs, blah blah blah). From Magnolia to the Buttercup Bake Shot to Sugar Sweet Sunshine to Billy's Bakery to Crumbs - New Yorkers argue about cupcakes the way San Franciscans argue about the best Taquerias or Bath Houses. From the frosting to the quality of the cake to the lines around the block, everyone weighs the pros and cons of cupcakes.I myself am a fan of the traditional buttercream frosting on a nice chocolate cupcake (Magnolia) but I can appreciate the merits of an Oreo cupcake (Crumbs), for instance.Where do you get your favorite cupcakes?
