They were fluffier and although it was still butter cream frosting, it was also fluffier. And their cakes were just fabulous. But the last two times were disappointing. Because of the publicity and the show, people who come from out of town always want to try it. Next time, I'm taking them to sticky fingers in Columbia Heights. Their sweet treats are really yummy, especially the cinnamon rolls and those chocolate with Peanut butter, mmm, makes me want to go up there right now and get some.

Most of his cakes I really love and they are made with the finest ingredients. My neighbors are in LOVE with the CakeLove cakes and can't wait for me to try the next one. I have made 10 different cakes so far. The Vanilla pound cake with all the background flavors of brandy is heavenly.

But who gives a ?:$%^^& about where to buy them in NY or even more randomly, Seattle??? Before I knew just how chic they were, I bought some cupcakes at Cakelove for a party in May. They were admittedly so-so --- dry and slightly tasteless. But the cakes I have had from Cakelove are excellent --- buttery and moist. So I am afraid I cannot join in on the tag-team-trashup of Cakelove at this particular juncture. So glad to know that cupcakes are chic.

One of my co-workers mentioned this place to me, and made it seem like the greatest bakery in the world. After my visit, I was truly disappointed (and thirsty because the cake was dry). The "cakes from scratch" motto seemed to bother me also-I ALWAYS make my own from scratch. I'll have to find a new place, or just stick to my own, moist cupcakes!

CakeLove (cakelove, Cake Love) used to be good. Or at least the experience was good. Or maybe it was the story that was good ... but today when I went online to see about getting a blueberry cheesecake (I'm not a desert person), I was surprised to see how CakeLove the business has changed. I guess they lost the bakery in the process. wow! CakeLove (cakelove, Cake Love) used to be good. Or at least the experience was good.

This cupcake craze seems to be a favoirte topic for elitist write-ups. I hope they find a new subject to bash soon.
