Eleni's

I came across Eleni's back in October at the Chelsea Market. If you've never been to this store, you have to go! It's so bright and colorful! The cases of cookies, cupcakes and treats are extremely welcoming and enticing. I wanted to try them all! Eleni's is well known for their unique designs including movie quote cupcakes, politician cookies, and Oscar nominees collection.

October was the final leg of the presidential campaign so Eleni's had a display of democratic and republican cookies and Obama and McCain cupcakes. They were keeping tabs for who sold the most. Can you guess who was winning?

I wish I could remember the exact cupcake I tried, they have such a great variety of flavors, but I do remember enjoying it! I definitely recommend this bakery. You will not be disappointed.

What about that place Burgers and Cupcakes? I'm excited you're on a cupcake tour! Write about Sugar Sweet Sunshine. I'm curious to know what you thought of it.

And when you go to Buttercup, try the peanut butter and jelly cupcake!
