culinary creations...

what are those you wonder? well, these morsels are actually foie gras lollipops. yes, that's what you read. and believe it or not, we had the pleasure of consuming them at picholine during our gourmet adventures in the big apple.  flavors exploded on the palate! 

on the other end of the taste spectrum, the confections below are an assortment of birthday cupcakes from sugar sweet sunshine (lower east side). no trip to manhattan would be complete without a frosting overload from sugar sweet, billy's or the ever popular magnolia. all 3 will get the job done but sugar sweet has the friendliest service and  the advantage of offering red velvet (center, with the candle) and luscious lemon (top row, middle), which launch it over the edge in our book.
