Mmmm! Birthday cupcakes from Babycakes! The two halves on the bottom are gluten-free carrot. The halves on the top are either gluten-free or wheat-free vanilla. I'm not sure. Either way, I was really happy to end my birthday with some cupcakes! Yay! These were sweetened with Agave nectar. Agave is a cactus, and one of the few sources of sweetener I can actually tolerate without negative effects. Tonight, I had one of the lemony ones and it was great! None of the cupcakes were overly sweet at all, and the flavors were nicely done. For those of you visiting New York, Babycakes is located on the lower east side, on Broome Street between Orchard and Ludlow. Conveniently near the great knish place.
