Just had the very last bite of my peanut butter on warm, crispy toast – but I promise it tasted like a cupcake while looking at all the mini delights from Kumquat Cupcakery.
Oh Brooklyn, we are meant to be. Brooklyn, New York, cupcake (and graffiti) hunts = my life.
These are real cupcakes and you will know when you find a real cupcake. A real cupcake is made with love and that is exactly what owner, Keavy Landreth, had in mind.
“Kumquat Cupcakery was born on October 15, 2007, when a dream, a sweet tooth, and a love for pleasing aesthetics were combined. With education from the Culinary Institute of America, The French Culinary Institute, and a BFA from Parsons School of Design, owner Keavy Landreth has set out to change the look and taste of cupcakes in NYC. Taking inspiration from the many gourmet patisseries around Manhattan, Keavy creates cupcakes that are enjoyed like a truffle or bonbon. Each one is appreciated for its bite sized stature, bold flavors, and specialized look.”
With flavors like Vanilla, Banana, PB Banana Honey, Lemon & Lavender, Strawberries, Orange Poppy Seed, Maple Bacon, Coffee Caramel Bourbon, Carrot, Pumpkin, Red Velvet, Dark Chocolate, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate Pstachio, Chocolate Orange and Chocolate Blueberry – I would not know where to start. Luckily these bite-size treats are small enough and that (of course) makes it okay to have a few. Now the most important question of them all; which one do you have first?
