Flavors: Wednesday, February 29th
I was planning on writing a big, quirky Tumblr post just for Leap Day, but today (Tuesday) has been one of the loooooongest days of my life, starting at 6am and involving lots of running around Manhattan like a crazy person. I’m totally burnt and need to go to bed, so you’re all going to have to wait another four years for the post. Sorry.
By this point, you know how much I hate...

So, Oscar night, huh? That was something, wasn’t it! Yep….erm….sure was great!
Ok, I didn’t watch. I haven’t seen a grown-up movie in the theater since “For Your Consideration”. The last movie I saw in a theater was Cars 2 this summer with my oldest son, because we were on vacation in New Jersey and had run out of things to do by day three. The cost for...

Lent is finally here! YES, I’m excited about it!
You heard me, shocked kitten!!! I said I’m excited about Lent. In fact, it’s actually one of my most favorite times of the year. I did a big blog post about it last year, but I’ll try summing it up real quick for those of you who don’t want to do the whole click-through sha-bang:
- When I can’t have meat on...

Flavors: Monday, February 20th and MARDI GRAS!
It’s Mardi Gras, it’s President’s Day weekend- it’s just madness over here! Yesterday, we drove from Brooklyn out to Patchogue to visit our only Long Island outpost, Queen City Cupcakes (GORGEOUS!!! A must visit if you’re out east). After Patchogue, we drove out to East Hampton to see my aunt, then to Maidstone, then back to East Hampton, then to Bridgehampton, then...

While our shop at DeKalb has been closed this winter, we’ve been doing LOTS of exciting back end stuff here at Robicelli’s. Like taxes! Setting up new accounting software to handle payroll! And (finally) finishing the book proposal! Would you believe that’s just the tip of the iceberg? Seriously!
One of the many projects I’ve been working on is finally coming up with a...

Today we’ve got an AWESOME cupcake coming out, but it’s not going to stores.
Sorry.
But I’m going to talk about it anyway, because I’m tremendously excited about it! And because it’s going to be one of our “new flavors” next month, so it’s kinda sorta like you’re seeing into the future right now. OOOOOOOOH!!!! SPOOOOOOKKKYYYY!!!!!!!

The Tumblr is 11 hours late today because I’ve been dealing with a migraine all night. Sorry America. And non-Americans, too- don’t think I don’t notice all you readers in Australia.
Here’s a video of the Swedish Chef making donuts. That should be enough to distract you from my total lack of content.
Now let’s get to the cupcakes

Ok, Super Bowl over. Now back to the real world, guys. Time to nag you about buying your special lady something sexy for Valentine’s Day. Something like…..cupcakes. (or Chambord brownies- they’re sexy too!)
Yes, there is a “Sexy Cupcake” Halloween costume. Because really, why the hell wouldn’t there be. I mean, I pulled off “Sexy Pepperoni Pizza”...

Our Urban Daddy Super Bowl offer was a HUGE success- thank you to everyone who helped us sell out! I got a few emails late today asking if it was possible to get any last minute orders in, but unfortunately we are completely booked for this weekend.
-BUT-
You’ll be able to pick up both the Chicken ‘n’ Waffles AND the Buffalo Chicken...

Matt was on Ink Master on Spike TV last night, and I couldn’t tell any of you to watch because we were under a contractual gag order! GYAH! AND I wanted to post up pics of his tattoo and video clips, but can’t because they haven’t put them on the official site yet! DOUBLE GYAH!
I know for a fact that his episode will be rerun next Tuesday at 9pm, so you guys should catch it....
