Hey, how are you? This is the third time I am going to be talking about cupcakes.
Is there a battle between Cupcakes and Muffins; Really? A Faceoff, no less.
What are the differences between one another and, which ones do we ultimately like best?
Ask anyone and they will tell you that the differences are that the cupcakes have that wonderful frosting which evoke childhood memories; the muffin, well it’s just a muffin.
But, no way, the difference is really about sweetness. The cupcake is a “small cake” and one individual portion; whereas, the muffin, while also an individual portion is often sweetened, but not necessarily.
Muffins tend to be more like breads. They are more dense and therefore, more flour is used. There is a marked difference in texture. The cupcake is much lighter and, of course, there is that icing.
I had mentioned to a couple of people that I was going to be visiting Cake Break located at 7 South First St., Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. Tel. 302-260-9264. Website www.cakebreakrehoboth.com. They are on Facebook and Twitter. E-mail is cakebreakrehoboth@gmail.com. They are open from 7:30 a.m. until 10:00 p.m.
Rachel Rockstarr contacted me through this blog and told me that I needed to try them. Some of the people I talked to had different opinions; I needed to check them out myself.
At Cake Break I met Eleanor, Samjeeb, Andriy and Jackie. All work in different capacities and all very eager to show me the shop.
It is not only cupcakes that are baked and sold here but they also have Surf Bagels, coffee, newspapers, cinnamon rolls, smoothies and breakfast cupcakes. The menu changes daily. You may choose to sit on one of their stools or outside on the bench.
Cake Break can customize any cupcake. They also bake special order cakes. Just give them a little bit of time and they will have them ready for you. You can also call Cake Break ahead of time and pick up your order at curbside.
Customers with food allergies should breathe a sight of relief. They offer Vegan, Nut Free and Gluten Free cupcakes. The Gluten Free and the Nut Free can easily be iced, but they are still in the developing stages of a Vegan free icing. Remember that vegans do not consume any animal products.
The chocolate gluten free cupcake got the best reviews in my household. We have tried many of them and by far this one was the best.
The Red Velvet with red cocoa, and cream cheese icing was delicious but I have to tell you that my personal favorite was the Rum Raisin Bread Pudding cupcake/muffin. It had cinnamon, raisins and a rum icing.
Eleanor loves to make coffee and I had an iced coffee latte and off I went to explore what else Rehoboth had to offer on a summer day.
The question by Cake Break to you is, “Is it time for you to take a cake break.?”
And, my question to you is, Will Cake Break make it into the Cup Cake Wars on t.v.? Stay tuned.
Note: If you would like to check my other 2 posts on cupcakes, then go to the left hand side of this blog and under Archives click on January and scroll down to the 5th. That was Sweet Sin in Baltimore, Maryland. You can check the other post by clicking on the month of June and scroll down to the 14th and that company, Cupcake Couture is in Delray Beach, Florida.
Have a great week-end!!
