Cake Ambiance




As you all know well, I have a major sweet tooth, more like a sweet bridge.

 

I was in Brooklyn and while walking down Flatbush and discovered Cake Ambiance. Boy do I wish I could have A) read the reviews on this property and B) have that time back.

As soon as I hit dean street, Lola, the fat girl inside of me saw a window case full of goodies, so I dashed over. But like the old saying, "all that glitters isn't gold". The place is small, there is no "ambiance" and two card tables isn't what I would describe as a "seating" area.

Another patron and I walked into Cake Ambiance and are warmly greeted. We're offered a bar, it was delicious, although, I'm not a bar guy. Since the bar was great, I think the cupcakes will be just as good. Boy was I WRONG.



 




I picked a cupcake and took it to go, I figure I would snarff it down on the walk to the bridge. I run into a friend so I put it away as we walk and talk. We part at Atlantic Avenue and I open the container and take one bit and realize, it's uneatable. The frosting tasted like, what I imagine, Home Depot joint compound would taste like and the cake like Lowe's dry potting soil.

This "cupcake" was undeniably the worst cupcake I've EVER had. I love sweet's and it really hurt to throw that $2.50 cupcake away. If I hadn't been so far away, I would have gone back to the store and asked for a refund.

Plain and simple, avoid this place.
