The incredible Vegan Peanut Butter Cupcake posted above is from The Bleeding Heart Bakery in Chicago (from flickr user The Bleeding Heart Bakery). Drooling yet?
Taste Tester and I were only in Chicago for two days, and since we bought over a dozen cupcakes on our visit to Molly’s Cupcakes we didn’t get around to visiting […]

Back with a bang! A Review of Molly’s Cupcakes
July 30th, 2008
Hi people! I missed you during vacation, but I’m back to share some fun chocolate and peanut butter adventures from my road trip to Michigan and Illinois.
Taste Tester, Taste Tester’s brother, and Jackie Brown (our Chocolate Labrador) and I drove from New Jersey to the Canadian Lakes in Stanwood Michigan, stopping in Ann Arbor on […]
OCD Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake Decorating
July 20th, 2008
So remember yesterday when I said I was going away for a little while? Well… I wasn’t kidding actually. Though I’m going on vacation, I will be posting when I’m able to, and well… I’m able to (at least today). And these photos found on flickr were just too crazy not to share.
Next time you […]
Brb!
July 19th, 2008
Sad to say but it’s time for me to take a short little hiatus here at the Chocolate Peanut Butter Gallery. I will be away for a week and a half enjoying the sun somewhere in Michigan. I’m only bothering to write this by chance that I don’t have internet where I’m staying. If I […]
Necco Sky Bar Review
July 18th, 2008
The Sky Bar is a pretty chocolate bar. The design of the bar’s shape is very Art Deco, which makes sense since this bar debuted in the 1930s. According to Necco’s website, it was first announced to the public by means of a dramatic skywriting advertising campaign. Fun! It was the only candy bar to […]
Misha’s Cupcakes
July 16th, 2008
There has been an intense on-going debate for who makes the best cupcake in NYC. There are the Magnolia lovers and the Magnolia haters. There are lists upon lists and arguments upon arguments. Well, I’m here to settle the debate for you.
The best cupcake is NOT in NYC.
It’s in Florida. At a chain called Misha’s […]
Serendipity’s Frozen Peanut Butter Chocolate
July 15th, 2008
So there’s this little thing called “Frozen Hot Chocolate” at this little place called “Serendipity 3″ in this little town called New York City. Maybe you’ve heard of it.
It seems that the second a restaurant in NYC (or anywhere, I’d assume) gets featured in a movie, it’s the new tourist hot spot. Well Serendipity 3 […]
Xooro Churro
July 14th, 2008
This photo of a crazy looking churro and the tube it came in was found on flickr. It’s called the “Mississippi” and it costs a mighty $4. It’s a peanut butter filled churro covered with chocolate and peanuts. The photographer calls the tubes “wasteful” and while I appreciate good package design, I have to agree… […]
No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars
July 11th, 2008
It’s a sad thing to admit, but these bars look better than they taste.
The words “no bake” in a recipe have always scared me a bit. It generally seems to mean that you end up with some kind of cold, raw-ish tasting dessert, and what fun is that? But again, the other day it was […]
Hero Sized Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie
July 10th, 2008
The above cookie is from Columbine in NYC.
This picture found on flickr kind of made me re-realize how much I love cookies. I think cookies are the sweet treat I crave the most. And this one looks just about my speed - lots of chips, some nuts thrown in… it’s hard to tell from the […]
