Please go here and lavish Bakerella with praise for doing it, yet AGAIN!  She blows me away.

Bad Influence… OK, Not Bad

So, thanks to this post by Bakerella, I’ve been wanting to visit Retro Bakery for a little while.  

So, I went today.  The shop is just a few minutes from my house.  

Obviously not few enough.  Even on an overcast day with the AC blasting, the Las Vegas heat managed to melt my frosting off of a few of the cakes.  ~sniff~

I mushed the frosting back into place as prettily as I could (I know… not very).  Oh well, the melties didn’t take away from the flavor!  Retro bakery has a FANTASTIC selection of flavors.  The gentleman who helped me was SO nice.  I can’t recommend them enough.  Most importantly, of course, these little cakes are yum yum yummy!  The flavors I purchased were Creamsicle, Peanut Butter Cup, Chocolate Covered Banana, and Red Carpet.  Delicious! 

Since my mind is apparently a slave to Bakerella’s blog posts, I’m planning on making MY favorite chocolate chippers this weekend.  So, keep an eye out.  Mmmm…
