Laura and I took a nice drive to Quincy , Ma. yesterday ...12/9/08. I had gotten my hair done in the morning and was ready for a nice lunch . Our drive would eventually bring us to Gennaro's .....our favorite Italian restaurant . But first ......the reason I even put on my shoes that morning ...........BABYCAKES .

Babycakes is a teeny tiny bakery set on a little side street in Quincy . It's nestled in among a few other little shops and at first ....we drove right by it . We doubled back and finally saw the sign on their door .

We first heard about this place on PHANTOM GOURMET . It was HIGHLY recommended for their outstanding cupcakes ......and ONLY their cupcakes .....cause that's all they sell ..............CUPCAKES !!!!

But what fantastic cupcakes they are . Very moist and rich and extremely flavorful . PEANUT BUTTER , SNOWBALL ( COCONUT ) , OREO , PUMPKIN , CHOCOLATE CARAMEL , MOCHA and many others . We bought one of each regular variety and the day's specialties ( each day has different specials ) to make an even dozen . We even bought 1 of the only other thing they sell ......a French toast bread pudding . These little cakes don't come cheaply ......it cost $ 25.25 for my order but boy are they worth it . I've never had a more flavorful cupcake . Fresh ingredients and homemade taste ......YUM !

The very friendly woman working that day, informed us to make sure to let the cakes come up to room temperature to maximize their flavor . It was tough to wait ....but they were worth waiting for .

WE'LL BE BAAAAACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!! ........................................................
