Well, we're back from New York City and our hastily conceived search for the best cupcake in New York City (and possibly the world) has come to an end. Admittedly, we only tested three cupcakes but I can't imagine there is a better cupcake than the ones we found at Crumbs. First of all, make a fist. Now pretend you were bitten by a spider and your fist swelled about two inches. That is the size of these cupcakes. Now imagine the moistest cupcake you can think of and then inject "surprise" icing into the middle of it. Then think about all the fun things you might want to roll your cupcake in -- M&Ms, mini chocolate chips, Snowcaps, Oreos. And you have a small idea about how amazing these cupcakes are! Perhaps a photo will help you imagine:
Clockwise from Top Left: The Snowcap, the Artie Lange,
the Baba Booey and The Grasshopper
Yours Truly Having a Moment.
Someone needs to take care of those eyebrows! Yikes!
Oh, and did I mention, they are now delivering. And you can look for other Crumbs Bake Shops on their website, which I have helpfully linked to twice for your convenience.
Confidential To Crumbs Bake Shop: I am totally willing to promote your product with virtually no strings attached. I just want the opportunity to taste all of your cupcakes at least one to three times each.
Our trip was great but there is such a thing as too much family togetherness -- especially when you are driving home, exhausted from walking walking walking all weekend and the Little One asks every five seconds "Are we home yet? When will we be home?" in an annoying whiny voice. It is at this point that you just want to leave the family and start a new life elsewhere. (All right, I will admit that I personally did not experience this whining as I was passed out in the front seat of the car but Mr. Jenners tells me it was really really annoying. So sorry I fell asleep, dear.)
Is it wrong that I spent a good amount of time the other day Googling "Edward Cullen" and ogling photos of Robert Pattison in his "Edward" persona? And have you seen the GQ with Mr. Pattison in the cover? Holy Cannoli! I'm starting to come around on this casting decision.

Wow. Are there calories in that cupcake?
I LOVE NYC and those cupcakes - the best ever!!!!!!!!!
you have not read all 4 books yet??
I devoured all 4 in 4 days!!
I am SO drooling over those cupcakes! Yum!
Okay-I'm also SO drooling over those photos of Rob Pattison!
mmmmm cupcakes. It's like your own personal cake made just for you. hehe. these look yummy. And I agree Edward (Who really cares what his real name is...not me!) does seem to get hotter each day.
Mmmm....cupcakes!!! Those. Look. Yummy.
Happy RTT!
I think that should be your new profile picture!
The Edward thing. Gah. NOT a fan. the first book yes, LOVED. The rest.. not. The last one??? Oh you'll see.
And yummy cupcakes.. oh my have you looked through flickr for amazing cupcake photos? SERIOUSLY.
I was supposed to look up this 'famous' donut shop in portland this last weekend..something about cereal donuts.. we never found it.. but you have put me to shame for not finding it..
If you ever want a great brownie in DC though... Try Firehook Bakery in DuPont Circle... my work is done.
That Arte Lange... yummmmmmm!
Oh wow... those are 4 words I never thought I'd utter.
Sounds like a delicious trip to the big apple - or should we can "big cupcake!"
Great "Edward" photos!
I want cupcakes. Must have cupcakes now!
First of all, I'm glad you enjoyed your trip!!
Now, on to the cupcakes. Holy cow!!! Those things look delicious... but not quite as delicious as Robert. Yum. :)
ok, those last photos totally made me forget about the thing you talked about in the beginning of your post...what were you talking about?
Thanks for posting those! Those are some yummy pics of Robert Pattison. Now I have to go google him. Darn you Jenners. Darn you.
ok. I googled and hit the jackpot.....you HAVE to look at this........yummiest pic EVER!

I think I'm rethinking that casting decision, too...
I'm still not over the "sweaty sparkle" desicion, though. :)
i could use a cupcake...
Oh, how I wish I could find a cupcake in my house right now! They look so delicious. Imagine working at Crumbs Bake Shop? Way too much temptation:)
Oh my!! Delicious cupcakes and Robert!! Perfect!!! LOL Thanks for the link! I just may have to order some! Cupcakes that is!! :P LOL Have a great week! :)
Mmmm...surprise icing....
Evil Cupcake Woman!You are tempting me with those cupcake pictures.....
OOOH! Gimme, gimme, gimme!
And welcome to the world of Twilight addicts and Edward-lusters.
I was just talking with my (married, 6 kids) sister about Twilight today. And she said that she thinks about it such an inappropriate amount, that she is convinced that there must be some kind of subliminal message in the books/movie.
I am drooling!
Is it wrong that I just licked my monitor to try to get a taste?
You REALLY made my mouth water! I felt like I suddenly had so much saliva in my mouth I had to swallow quicker. I've got to find a location near me!
And yes...Robert has started to grow on me too. I give.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVE JUST FINISHED ECLIPSE and HAVEN'T READ BREAKING DAWN YET!!! NEW MEAT! MAKE SURE AND POST ABOUT IT WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED!!!
A double delicious post... cupcakes and Robert... SCRUMPTIOUS!
A cupcake that looks that good can't possibly be bad for you.
You had me at cupcake...
Those cupcakes look too damn good! Every time I hear them talking about them on Howard Stern my mouth waters...
Edward also looks too damn good.
I would like to dip him in a cupcake.
Without cupcakes life is not worth living!!!
Ok, well it is but still CUPCAKES!!!
I am glad you had fun in NYC!! It is a fun place huh???
I'd have to walk back home to northern California if I got anywhere near those cupcakes. What do you think? 700 calories a pop?
Oh, cupcakes are like little bits of frosted heaven. And Twilight.......I think I read all four in two weeks.
oh you people...
i'll stick to the cupcakes, thank you very much. lots and lots (and lots) of cupcakes.
Ok, now I want a freaking cupcake! I'm never going to lose 20 pounds, if I keep reading about all this delicious food! And, Mr. Pattison is quite dreamy, isn't he?
Do you really have to show pictures of, and write about cupcakes? I mean, come on! I'm on a very strict diet but now all I can think about is a big, sweet, cupcake!
I'll blame the next pound on you Jenners!
:-)
OH MM GEE! Those look so fabulous! And I think I gained weight just looking at them! I would be surprised to find there were 1000 calories in one cupcake! I better work out a lot if I wanna taste one. :)
There is nothing like Crumbs. They are the very best cupcakes (mini cakes!) on the planet. The icing alone is to die for. HMMMM. I have to go find one now. :)
yuuuummmmm! cupcakes are my favorite! :)
Please tell me those cupcakes are healthy and calorie-free.
Ok...who cares. They look awesome!
Give me those cupcakes and no one gets hurt.
Um, wow. Do those cupcakes have their own gravitational force? I mean, they each get their own NAME.
I think they're big enough to just be considered CAKES. But I'm okay with that. I wonder if they deliver to Canada?
What a yummy post. In every sense of the word. Yum, yum, YUM. Thank you. :)
It's almost midnight and you've made me hungry for those cupcakes...wonder if I'll be dreaming of cupcakes tonight... :)
Happy RTT! :)
Those cupcakes look divine - well worth the whiny road trip...
Mmmmm....cupcakes.
The answer to the infernal question "When are we going to get there?" is "Just looking for a parking space, honey."
And, you're no more wrong than I am when I google my imaginary boyfriends. And, if that's wrong, then I don't want to be right!
Wow - those cupcakes are making me drool!
I love cupcakes and I love Edward. A perfect day would be to share a cupcake with Edward and so that I don't feel guilty that I'm with another man than my husband.
I'll have RM sit at another table.
I would pretty much give my left arm for one of those cupcakes right now. And I'm still not sold on that casting decision.
A sno caps cupcake! Yum! That looks so good.
I would just about die for those cupcakes!! Especially the grasshopper.
i'm about halfway done with Breaking Dawn! have you started it yet?!?!
i love Edward "Robert" Cullen too!!!
glad you had such a great trip! can't wait to try cupcakes! Are they as good as Mom's brownies?! LOL!!
Yum...what a tease. I live in NY so I better head over there!!!
I love this line:
"I am totally willing to promote your product with virtually no strings attached." I think they should seriously consider it.
Yep, the cupcakes DID wink at me - now pass it over!
Ok. Now I want to go back to NYC, JUST for those cupcakes!
