Title:

Sugar, Spice and Everything Nice

Post Text

Watching Cake Boss is a ritual in my home. My family and I sit in front of the television and drool over different desserts Buddy Valastro creates. Every episode something more delicious and elaborate is made. Of course sitting on the couch is nothing compared to the real Carlos’ Bake Shop experience. The shop is overwhelming. The line curves around the block and fellow pastry lovers are itching to get a glimpse of the bakery. I entered the bakery and the glass cases displaying and abundance of cakes, pastries, cookies, pies and deserts soon become overwhelming. They were beautiful. The air was delicious and warm. I breathed in cinnamon and vanilla. This was heaven, my vision of heaven. With so many deserts to choose from, when you are called, you begin to order one of everything. After trying all you ordered, there were no disappointments. My favorites from the bakery are the red velvet cupcakes and the lobster tails. The cake is soft as a pillow and the cream cheese is sweet. The lobster tails have a flakey shell that cradles a creamy filling. The filling is light like silk and has a hint of almond. When you take your first bite your head begins to spin and you find yourself enveloped in a blanket of deliciousness. Whatever you order from Carlos’ Bake Shop you are guaranteed to enjoy the delicious experience as well as the treats.
