Sweet Times at Sweet Cupcakes, Boston

As you probably already know, I have been out of town a lot lately on something magical called Book Tour. This is a journey I've been taking to support my awesome new book CakeSpy Presents Sweet Treats for a Sugar-Filled Life, which is conveniently available at Urban Outfitters, Barnes and Noble, and many other fine retailers.

But my book tour has been extra-special, because instead of conducting it at book stores, I've been going to BAKERIES. It's a Tour de Sweet!

And right now, I want to tell you about my first East Coast stop, which was at a magical place called Sweet Cupcakes in Boston. They have a few locations around town; I visited the one on School Street, downtown.

First off, I was greeted by a bevy of beautiful seasonal cupcake flavors in the bakery case:

...but things got far better when they brought out a tray of cupcakes with edible toppers featuring my artwork!

Now, you may think that it being that my artwork was featured on the cupcakes, it might be hard for me to eat them.

But this was not the case. They were freaking delicious. I wish I was eating another one right now.

Moreover, the aesthetic and color scheme in the place couldn't have been more appropriate.

...and as a bonus, I got to hang out with awesome people like Bethany and Tina of Scoopalicious;

and my buddy Phuong:

...Phuong is also going down as "favorite person ever"...because she also brought me some Boston Cream Pie from nearby Parker Hotel:

Shani, who collects my rubber stamp designs also came...and was packing her sweet supplies!

...and I got to meet Jill of Sugarbird Bakery, who came all the way from Providence! She rules!

My friends Dan and Kelsey also showed up from Rhode Island--making for a sweet treat on an extremely sweet evening. 

And I sold out of books, to boot. Best signing ever!

YAY! So glad you made it to Sweet Cupcakes! It's been a year since I was last in Boston, and a trip is way overdue. I distinctly remember Sweet's Chocolate Cranberry cupcakes... and how super freaking delicious they were. You're touring your way across the globe, my friend! :)
