The Joycup Co.’s slogan is, “not your everyday chocolate cup.” I’m not sure that these treats could have a more fitting motto.
Chocolate and peanut butter are not subtle flavors. There’s a good chance that they could easily overpower whatever you mix them with. That being said, I’m not sure how Danna J. Dykstra-Coy, owner of […]

There’s a reason that I decided to write a blog about two flavors instead of just one: I like desserts with different layers and textures. Layers make each bite exciting and a little different. Madelaine’s new Duets chocolates are truffles with two different flavored fillings sandwiched together, creating a fun mixed flavor sensation. Given my […]

I don’t know how Too Haute Cowgirls came up with such wonderfully crazy flavors for their delicious buttercrunch popcorn but I am thankful for it! A small team of tasters and I tasted every type of popcorn the cowgirls make and were blown away. Check out each flavor below including their white chocolate peanut butter […]

I had first heard of Ethel’s Chocolates a few years ago while living in Chicago, where they had multiple shops. Sadly according to Yelp, it appears that most (maybe all?) of their Chi-town locations have closed. I never knew that they were based in Las Vegas but figured what better place to revisit them than […]

I’ve already raved about P.B.Loco’s Peanut Butter with Raspberry White Chocolate, but it’s now time to put the spotlight on it’s fellow spread, the Cocoa Banana.
Unfortunately I didn’t get to do anything fun with this peanut butter like bake cookies with it or drizzle it over ice cream - I was too busy eating it […]

Don’t be fooled by that picture - it looks small, but that cookie measures 4 inches across and 1 inch thick. That’s a whole lotta cookie!
Today is a very special day at The Chocolate Peanut Butter Gallery. I finally got to taste cookies from a bakery that I’ve been dreaming about for five years! FIVE! […]

Taste Tester found out about Brooklyn Kitchen’s Third Annual Cupcake Cookoff on Friday, three days in advance. Given the short notice, my immediate reaction was not to bother with it because there wasn’t enough time to prepare. But after a little more coaxing and a bit of obsessing over what kind of chocolate peanut butter […]

Okay, back to being a normal food blog now. What a crazy week though, hm?
I don’t know about you but I had a real good time on The Atlanta Cupcake Tour. Are you all cupcake’d out yet? Don’t worry we’ll get back to more of a variety of treats in the coming weeks.
The following […]

Lindsay and I wasted no time after our visit to Sweet Pockets, and drove right over to The Atlanta Cupcake Factory.
What’s that? Visiting one cupcakerie in a day is plenty? Who do you think you are dealing with here, amateurs?

THE ATLANTA CUPCAKE FACTORY
624 N Highland Ave NE, Atlanta Georgia 30306 (some days are by appointment […]

The timing for our Atlanta cupcake tasting wasn’t very well scheduled. Lindsay and I spent the afternoon visiting a few cupcakeries all at once and stowed our collection away for a tasting later in the day. However, before the cupcake tasting, we had a pizza tasting to attend. We were lucky enough to be invited […]
