Cupcakes, cupcakes, cupcakes | New York City, USA

Cupcakes were my daily treat while we were in New York. There’s something about popping into a small yet warm cupcake store, away from the icy breeze that made me an extremely happy little vegemite. Perhaps it was the constant whiffs of cinnamon dust, or maybe the freshly baked decadent cupcakes sitting in the cabinets were just too irresistible to ignore… but something made me kept going back for more.

The three cupcake stores that we visited most frequently were:

Billy’s Bakery Tribeca

75 Franklin Street
Btwn Broadway & Church, New York
Subway

Magnolia Bakery Bloomingdale’s

(Obviously no introduction is needed here, this cupcake brand was featured in SATC and the shop is always so busy)

Where were the bunnies?

Ten flights, three train trips, two ferry trips and countless cab rides in between, after almost one month of travelling around the cities of China, the bunnies are back.

Hotel-hopping (all twelve of them) and food-devouring, our motto was “eat till we drop, and then eat again”. It was the other travel bunnie’s first time visiting the mainland China and I did what I could to leave him with no disappointment. The planning of the trip was months in the making, from selection of hotels to which street stall has the best yak milk yoghurt, you name it and I was on it.

We took over four thousand photos and met a few friendly faces along the way, I’m excited to say that although it might not be the most beautiful trip that we’ve taken, it was definitely one of the most interesting and bizarre holidays.

I can’t wait to share our China trip stories with you, but before that I will need to put closure to the USA trip that we took at the end of last year. So stay tuned and thanks for reading!

Lots of love, from the bunnies.

The Bunnies are going to China!

So, the bunnies have packed their bags and we are ready to travel again. This time, the destination will be China.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to update the blog for a while due to internet restrictions over there. For behind the scenes in China, feel free to follow dolcebunnie on Instagram.

See you guys in four weeks!
