Tonnie’s Minis
I was walking down west 3rd street the other day, and I know I cant walk down third street without getting a cupcake from Tonnie’s Minis. I walked up to the mini store window, peered inside..AND IT WAS EMPTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I almost passed out! I thought I would never get to taste those moist, sweet, heavenly cupcakes again! I started plotting! Thinking maybe if I find the owner, he would give me the recipes so I could make my own. I mean if HE wasnt going to use them, no sense in letting them go to waste!
Now, I know there are plenty of other cupcake places and bakeries but they arent the same! A lot of these fancy gourmet looking bakeries put too much emphasis on decorating their cupcakes and not enough emphasis on making them taste good! Im not going to be looking at it long enough to care that much if it has bells and whistles on it! And who cares about a pretty cupcake if its dry? That’s like having an ipod with no songs on it.
Tonnie’s minis are cute, quaint little cupcakes with beautiful but simple designs and swirls. They make you feel like it’s your birthday, and your grandmother baked you cupcakes. I LOVE THEM!!!! Every single flavor is yummy but my favorites are Strawberry Twist, and Lemon. The other flavors include Death By Chocolate, A Taste of Coconut, Golden Heart, Chocolate Kiss, Carrot and so many others.
I bet you’re sitting there wondering “If theyre closed, why is she being cruel to us by telling us how delicious and pretty they are”. Well guess WHAT! They MOVED they didnt close! Of course the west village was a trendy location and a convenient location for some of us, but if you feel like trekking to Harlem, you can STILL get your fix! Im on my way RIGHT NOW! What lucky devils those Harlem residents are! Dont you just wanna slap em?
I cant wait for you to taste them! Nobody should go through life without experiencing these little rewards.
