And I took these last Friday at their SoHo store. I bought their new June flavors, lavender Earl Grey and white chocolate raspberry, and a coconut and hazelnut crunch. I like their regular better than these new ones, though white chocolate raspberry was interesting (especially the only on Saturday only mint cookies & creme). I may give them another try. I also highly recommend the black and white cookie cupcake if you are a fan of black and white cookies; each color has a different taste and texture and they combine perfectly.

14 April Fool's Day cupcakes: lox, calzone, burgers, spaghetti and meatballs, mashed potatoes, lo mein and more!

Happy April Fool's Day! Do any of these cupcakes fool you? The bagel and lox one gave me a run for my money. For more inspiration, see the Karen Tack and Alan Richardson cookbook Hello, Cupcake!, which inspired many of these trick cupcakes, and they've got lots more examples on their site.
