{Scissors.Paper.Cake}

Thursday, May 27th, 2010

Introducing Aussie’s answer to New York’s Amy Atlas: Scissors.Paper.Cake. Just how cute are these cupcakes – way too cute to eat! This is a melange of two fab women of course – one custom invitations designer see Imprintables, the other a party styler and cupcake baker see Hello Naomi. The whimsy here is totally over the top and I just love to see a theme carried out to o-b-s-e-s-s-i-v-e perfection. I see how they are doing things down under and I am totally feeling their vibe. For more super cute party styling ideas from this dynamic duo see imprintablesblog.

{Sweetiepie Restaurant}

How cute is this! I can’t stand it. Sweetie Pie restaurant in the West Village is the perfect go to spot for a soiree out with the girls – us big girls and also the wee ones too. Part tea salon, part dessert bar, part ice cream parlor, part restaurant, part cocktail bar = a totally awesome experience. With bright pink couches, mirrored everything, marble floors, and a great bird cage that you can even opt to dine in - This boite is so charming and the small cute details are endless. Treat yourself to an afternoon of Alice in Wonderland followed by high tea at Sweetie Pie. Now that would be sweet!

{Wafles & Dinges}

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

New Yorkers are always looking for that next thing and in turn Gotham never fails to deliver. I wrote last year about how I was obsessing over the Van Leeuwan truck and oh I still get very excited when I spot it – but a girl of course can have more than one obsession – right now for me its …. alas the Wafles and Dinges mobile. I can spot that bright canary yellow truck out of the corner of my eye and O-M-G, the waffles are perfectly crispy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. If only they could find a way to sell Belgium frites from the truck … That would be just too perfect!

{The new girl in town}

Anyone who knows me can tell you that my all time favorite cupcake shop is Two Little Red Hens located on the upper east side. In fact all of their baked goods are pretty yummy. Another plus is that they are pretty – beautifully decorated with colorful roses and such. But WAIT, I have a new L-O-V-E. Sugar Sweet Sunshine in LES has stolen – oh ok, borrowed my heart. I ordered a few batches for my good friend Glenda for her 30th birthday earlier this year and I sampled 3 flavors just standing at the counter – washed down with milk of course. OMG, they are really really really good. They are just the right size, very moist, and great frosting to cake ratio. There was more than a pang of guilt knowing that I traded up my uptown trusty for a hip downtown tyrst but somethings are just too good to pass up.

{Promotional Quandry}

It’s show time again! I have a bridal exhibit coming up in the next few weeks and eeeek I need a great giveaway for all of my brides-to-be who will be visiting my booth. For my last show, I enlisted the help of rolling pin productions. And let me tell you they do A-M-A-Z-I-N-G work. This company creates custom cookies for any event and also makes great logo cookies. BTW, the goods taste fantastic! When I received my logo cookies I oogled them for a whole day and I really had a hard time giving them away at the show. I really just wanted to horde them away for safe keeping. I am going to be honest with you guys these babies are not without a price, I remember some talk about offering my first born as payment, but then you get what you pay for I always say.

So that said, I need a new promo item and fast. If anyone has any great ideas please, please, please send it my way!
