I'm going to take a moment from our regularly scheduled program to bring you this breaking news...New York Cupcakes is by FAR the BEST cupcake shop in the WORLD!
Located in the Crossroads Shopping Center in Bellevue, Washington, New York Cupcakes is not a chain folks, it's truly a one-of-a-kind cupcakery, owned by Lisa Johnson, who's eye for whimsey and talent for cake, has made this a "destination cup-ca-tion." Yep, a cup-ca-tion...because one bite of her delicious, moist, rich cupcakes will transport you to Eden...Nirvana...or to whereever your personal happy place is...mine would be a 90% off sale at Nordstrom...hey, a girl can dream! I love their "frosting to cake ratio"...just the right amount...but, if you're a frosting freak like the Blonde Bombshell, they also offer up daily "frosting shots" for a buck...so you can have your cake, and eat it too, with all the frosting your little heart desires! If you're in the neighborhood and your sweet tooth gets a hankering, stop in and say hi to Lisa -
