Bellmore, Long Island
I “dragged” my friend to the newest cupcakery on Long Island-NY Cupcakery. As much as she loves me, I am sure she regrets going-more on that later. We finally spotted the small/hidden storefront amongst the thousands of shops on Merrick Rd. We walked in and noticed the décor was almost identical to Cupcake Corner’s in Garden City. Either both owners have the same taste, or I smell a copycat. There was a rather large selection of cupcakes BUT they weren’t labeled! You had to ask the woman behind the counter what flavor every single cupcake was. Of course some were obvious, but some you just couldn’t assume its flavor or well, you know what that makes out of you and me. It’s not like they had a big board up to where you could pick a name and they would get you the cupcake. Nope. Nothing. After pointing to 3 yummy looking mini cupcakes, I ended up with brownie bite, banana fudge, and vanilla/vanilla. They were $1.25 a pop…more than the mini cupcakes at Baked by Melissa! Very overpriced but I was willing to overlook it based on taste. The cupcakes were packaged in a regular plastic container-not conducive for cupcake carrying. The brownie bite cupcake was quite delicious, but it all went downhill from there. The other 2 were not good at all. Even though it’s the closest cupcakery to my house, I will not be going back.
peace, love, and cupcakes
