Box of Treasures

We have already mentioned Sweetcake in our cupcake expose, but their small bites are worth another look. When you open their box, tied with a brown ribbon, the confections themselves are jewel-like, delicate and inscrutable. It is hard to know, just by looking at them what they are, but you can be sure they are delicious. There are small flat round cakes, with mod decorations that are really just small versions of their cupcakes, there are tiny lemon and chocolate tartlettes. There are chocolate "boxes" filled with wonderful custards, topped with berries. A personal favorite, is a round marzipan "basket" filled with chocolate, topped with a fanciful wedge of pink striped chocolate and a blueberry. It's not cheap, but every bite is worth it.
