226 Front St., Financial District
Since I am never really in the financial district, I forced my friends to stop at Made Fresh Daily one day when we happened to be in the area. The décor, both inside and out, was very simple. White everywhere, including the tables. I approached the counter and saw two sets of cupcakes, regular sized and mini. They only had 1 type of large left, but 2 minis so I opted to have one of each of the minis. They were $1.50 each, even more expensive than Baked by Melissa! I tried the chocolate butterscotch and the chocolate cheesecake. The chocolate butterscotch was chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream topped with chocolate ganache. Not sure how they incorporated the butterscotch, but I tasted it only slightly. The chocolate cheesecake was chocolate cake with “cheesecake” (tasted just like cream cheese) frosting on top and topped with graham cracker crumbs. The only cheesecake-like part of the cupcake was the graham crackers. Both were average, overall. Now I know there’s no (good) reason to return to the Financial District for cupcakes.
peace, love, cupcakes
