Jumbo "Hostess" binary cupcakes

December 17, 2009 – 5:22 pm | by admin

72f5b1684akes1 t 150x150 Jumbo "Hostess" binary cupcakes

From the blog Not So Humble Pie come these Jumbo “Hostess” binary cupcakes (go there for the recipe). Via @notsohumblepie on Twitter . But be warned…she writes about some of the travails of making the filling: Let me tell you all, there are some really gross filling recipes out there! One that I tried was basically sweetened country-style gravy. I gave it a shot because it was reminiscent of pastry cream–minus the egg yolks–and although I was skeptical, the recipe’s reviewers seemed to like it. So I gave it a shot, and wow… it was so incredibly vile. That was failure number one. Two and three were much better but they either lacked the right texture or the filling absorbed into cake within 24 hours. Eventually, I figured that whatever was inside a hostess cupcake was not man-made and was created with technology on par with CERN’s new Hadron Collider. So I gave up. That is, until I had a breakthrough while making fudge for the holidays… I was going through a lot of marshmallow creme and while noshing on a spoon it came to me….this stuff is pretty close! Really close, actually. So I decided to give the cupcakes one more…

I heart Spot Dessert Bar

December 15, 2009 – 11:05 pm | by admin

87b8ef163142e5 d 112x150 I heart Spot Dessert Bar

Spot Dessert Bar is the new home of former Batch proprietor Pichet Ong. Melissa posted about their cupcake offerings , but I finally got to check them out over the weekend and am so excited about this cozy spot on St. Mark’s Place. I will post more about all their cupcake offerings and constantly-updated desserts (Vietnamese coffee ice cream!) but for now, this photo of their green tea cupcakes will have to suffice (jam filling not shown). Cupcakes are $2.75 each and well worth it (and when I was there Sunday night they were thinking of starting to offer mini cupcakes, which I highly encourage!). Follow them on Twitter (@SpotDessertBar) too. Another post about Spot will be coming very soon, but I wanted to share this because it’s so good, you should check it out (though I caution that Saturday night it’s very crowded, but you can still walk in and get cupcakes to go). See more photos in my Flickr set . Spot Dessert Bar 13 St. Mark’s Place New York, NY 10003 212-677-5670 contact at spotdessertbar.com
