munching on...

After having lunch in the city, I had to stop by Sprinkles to see if they have any new flavors for the Fall season. Although they didn't have anything new today, I still bought two cupcakes {triple cinnamon + strawberry}.

One of my favorite television shows I'm watching these days is 2 Broke Girls. It's about 2 girls who have a dream of owning their own cupcake business. On its season finale last year, they got Martha Stewart to try their cupcakes. This reminded me when I met Candace Nelson, founder of Sprinkles. Last summer in 2011, I got to meet Candace Nelson at Sprinkles {Chicago}! I baked her my apple custard cupcake for her to try. She said it was very moist and delicious!
