Cupcakeland

Editorial Review

Williamsburg's inevitable cupcakery, run by two Polish girls who wish to "make you high on sugar." Less gauche than certain forerunners (cough, cough, Magnolia), think smaller, airier ‘cakes and tooth decay-lite cream cheese icing. Daily flavors like strawberry-studded vanilla cake swirled with whipped cream. Rotating specials of raspberry-dolloped lemon, vanilla cream-filled dark chocolate ganache. Or baker's choice: indicate only fruit, chocolate, or nuts and let her do the frosting. Light and bright shoebox also boasts a surely diabetic goldfish named Gary.
