4:00pm peanut butter cupcake

Don't you agree this dark and stormy peanut butter cream over chocolate cupcake is the perfect accompaniment to the darkening sky outside? We're on the cusp of a summer thunderstorm waiting to burst. Whatever frustrations may arise from Dean & Deluca's not-always-great service have been today tempered by the discovery of their "baked on premises" cupcakes. The chocolate cake was moist, the frosting light and airy. All in all, quite nice.
