Crumbs

Another great food find in the Newark Airport area. The bakeshop is called "Crumbs" and we fell in love with their array of delicious goodies. It definitely changed the way I see “airport food.” I got the Dulce de Leche cupcake and here is what I thought about it.

What I liked:

Very moist chocolate cake

Cream cheese-frosting base really tasted like Dulce de Leche. It has that deep, caramelly, sugary flavor.

Moderate caramel drizzle on top is deep and dark.

Very simple cake – no fuss and frills, but the flavor is outstanding.

Perfect balance of chocolate and caramel.

Large, but not too large. Not overwhelming. Just enough. It is not an “on the go” type of cake. You have to sit down, use a knife, and enjoy every morsel of it.

 

What I didn't like: 

It seems to be a touch on the pricey side. But just one bite and you quickly forget how much you paid for it (as you contemplate getting three or four more cakes).

The verdict: 

Yes, a bit pricey, but really worth every penny. The cake was just so good, and NOT meant for sharing. I definitely recommend them, and will buy from them again. Enjoy your treat with your favorite cup of coffee. :-)
