All cupcakes are not crated equal. Without question, there is at least one cupcake that stands out from the legions of the overly frosted and sweet nostalgia minded bakes. The dozen plus varieties of cupcakes (regular and premium) from CHICKALICIOUS DESSERT CLUB are lessons of exaction in baking perfection. With moist and flavorful cake topped with just the right amount of frosting (we estimate a 5 to 1 ratio), this is the don’t-overwhelm-but-satisfy-me sweet treat. Don’t confuse this shop with the cupcake stands and bakeries that abound - no amateurish Easy Bake home-economic endeavour here. The contemporary decor may be a bit off but, this sibling to the across the street ChikaLicious Dessert Bar uses top-line ingredients and a scientific diligence in creating cupcakes, puddings and its Signature Desserts. It is an affordable and unassuming indulgence without risk of an artificially induced sugar rush. CHIKALICIOUS DESSERT CLUB. 204 East 10th Street, between 1st and 2nd Avenues. Tel. 212-475-0929.
