Have you heard of Sweet Revenge in NYC? Better yet, have you eaten there? “Eat, Drink, and be Merry” is their motto, and they pair wine and beer with cupcakes. Ummm … yes, please! How does this sound: a crimson and cream cupcake with a bellini or a spice islands carrot cupcake with an IPA. I haven’t yet had the pleasure of indulging there (hint, hint husband!), but I did a little pairing of my own last weekend.
We hosted an apartment full of friends for Penn State football. Conveniently, it was also Nick’s 27th birthday. It was cold and rainy at the tailgate, and the Nittany Lions lost to the Hawkeyes, but at least we had stout cupcakes to consume!
Yes, stout cupcakes. You can find the recipe at The Culinary Couple.
Cheers!
Ohhhhh – I just went there last week -!- love the space. The little croque-monsieu cake w/honey mustard is amazingly good. They make a mean espresso too.
Thanks for commenting on ABCD Design today – because of it, I “found” your lovely blog! YAY! Great things all around.
Best of luck in the contest.
Warm regards,
