vegan cupcakes

ok. yesterday, i had a revelation. my roommate and i were lucky enough to both get out of work early. so without question, we headed down to the village for shopping and a cupcake mission. she has read about babycakes on a blog and we were excited to try it. i was particularly interested in this place because both my brother and his fiance are vegan, so i considered this research for a potential wedding gift . after a little searching we found the bakery, which is located on broome between orchard and ludlow. we picked out 6 cupcakes. red velvet, carrot and mint chocolate chip were among the selections. they were delicious. and hands down the best thing about this place is that these sweet treats are not only vegan, but not as bad for you as a regular cupcakes too! they are sweetened by agave juice and you can choose other options like soy-free, gluten-free or with spelt (a grain). all in all, it was a really fun place albeit incredibly overpriced. but i guess if that's the only downfall to the perfect, healthy cupcake..i'll take it. xox
