im mildly obsessed with sweet things. I have a sweet tooth that deserves its' own email so it can personally read all the newsletters it wants to subscribe to from bakeries, candy stores, and chocolatiers. but anyways.

OMG this is probably the king of my pile of guilty pleasures, sitting on a throne being held up by lady gaga and my desire to own a snuggie.
Yes, it's coporate and touristy and overpriced and is too clean and was made in an attempt to impress out of…More »
It takes a lot to impress me.
Crumbs impresses me.
I am so wildly over Sprinkles (trends do not always equal quality) and found this place while dodging far too friendly Indiana Jones. The store front is right in the front, but is kind of off to the…More »
Brilliant.
You know what they do? They sit. They wait. They're predators.
While you're shopping, getting dizzy on those weird escalators, you're thinking "man, I need a little boost!"

Ghirardelli is just an absolute San Francisco thing. The square is super cute and tucked away enough that its not as in your face tourist trap as other parts of the city. Their ice cream was very well flavored without being too sweet, as some…More »

Their pieces were BEYOND cute. Chocolate is always worth the splurge (please, you all know what I'm talking about) so even though it was a tad pricey, it wasn't too ridiculous. Their pieces were fun and my friend and I also tried out some that they…More »

I have been DYING to check this out. It's been on my East Bay hit list. I dragged my darling manfriend out with me and we were off.
It's kind of a hole in the wall (Billy almost wandered into a Domino's when he was trying to find the door). The shop…More »

I remember being a little girl and my daddy taking me to Hooper's and I honestly thought it was magical. All of their truffles are amazing and done so that they are completely filling without being too much. The flavor is great and gracefully stays…More »
Good service, cute items.
Prices are decent, and there's a decent variety.
They dip lots of fun stuff like strawberries, cherries, and oreos, among other things. There's also a lot of individual truffles and pieces in their case to choose from,…More »

So I found this place from getting a Groupon (the most wonderful site ever, for foodies, fatties, and frugals). Apparently, this place does get a lot of press, but is still in the SoCal shadow of the mightly Sprinkles cupcakes (which I think is a…More »
I took a break from the Macy's flower show to get my snack on with Papa. Apparently this place has been open for a little under a year (according to the cupcake man) and I have never seen it! They said they just got their sign a few days ago (which…More »

I worked at Godiva for a year, so I've learned a lot about chocolate over that time. Cocoa Bella knows what they're doing. Some pieces are very sweet (the milk chocolate truffles we tried because they're a standard, and they sent my friend and I…More »
Oh wow, this is pleasant.
My dad picked up a cupcake at the Berkeley Beehive market, and brought it back for inspection.
He went with carrot cake (what?), which is not notoriously the greatest choice of dessert, but this was done well.

You walk by, you see the bear, and you melt a little bit. admit it.

See's is an American chocolate brand, so it is bound to be more sweet and sugary than other brands. The pricing of it is basically next to nothing at $15 a pound. My friend and I stopped by last night and spent six dollars on a bag of chocolate we…More »

This results in being drunk in the middle of the day, which I am no stranger to.

American cupcake is freaking adorable.
They have an old school photobooth (!!!) and a bar that features sandwiches and a beer and wine selection.
