International Pickle Day

Yesterday I happened to be in New York for International Pickle Day (my husband's favorite holiday). So we stopped by for a bite and to listen to some French pickle poetry (much more charming than it sounds).  And it just so happened that Babycakes had a special cupcake for the event - a pickled vegan cupcake.  Hear me out before you judge...a vanilla cupcake with a pickled raspberry center and Gingerberry Kombucha flavored icing.  I realize this sounds strange, but it was delicious.  Not strange tasting in any way...so inventive and fun!  I have been madly in love with Babycakes for roughly 4 years and they never cease to amaze me.

International Pickle Day is your husbands favorite holiday? Well, that is certainly saying something. Puts Christmas into perspective. All that aside, I would love to try that cupcake :)

As a child, my husband used to receive baskets filled with pickles for Easter...he doesn't dig on sweets, just pickled vegetables :) Very strange.
