Cute little place in Times Square Plaza that does BEAUTIFUL individual cakes. Again it's a small place that I've told my friend about, but unfortunately it's not an ideal DATE place in his opinion.

I think a Cupid hit one of the local Oakville Elites with a cup-shape arrow.
Really cute. Really sweet. Really moist. No not him, I'm talkin' cupcake.
I wish I could be there to witness the $80+ purchase worth of cupcake.

Churros($0.50[?]) while 1/3 of the size of traditional and also doughier, it was good enough of a snack on it's own but that's like the X without the OXO. Combine it with Hot Chocolate Short Shot($3.75), Con Leche($5.00) or Con Cafe($5.75) and start…More »
