At first, I didn't think much about it. Just cupcakes. Then I had one. Then two. Omg, the cupcakes were amazing. Without exaggeration or exception, these are the best cupcakes I have ever had - I especially liked the carrot cake! I highly recommend J Cakes for your cupcake needs!

I've been obsessed with scones/biscuits recently and one weekend morning, finding myself with no…read moreplans for once, I made the trek to Ipswich to Sandpiper, having heard that they had some of the best biscuits in the state. And, well, I won't keep you in suspense but that first bite of the salted honey butter and jam biscuit was transcendental. It was a little crumbly but so chewy and moist, and the jam and honey butter combo was incredible. Indescribable. They have so many pastry options, as well as breakfast sandwiches, but I really had eyes only for the biscuits. Also tried the cheddar scallion biscuit - amazing. I'm running out of adjectives to describe how good these were. The key for super flaky, tender biscuits is using very, very cold butter and not mixing the dough too much. It was cool to watch people baking in the back kitchen. Got the quiche as well. Tasty, with a nice mix of egg and veggies and cheese, with a well-made crust, but next time I would just get more biscuits. Lots of free parking spots in front and nearby. There's little space inside the store, which makes the queue a bit unwieldy, but it does move quickly and it's well worth the wait (and the drive).

Momdukes was with me, so I bought her an Almondless Joy. I got a report back from her today that she really enjoyed the flaky coconut topping. After viewing a gorgeous FB pic, I knew that I had to try the Pink Lemonade and also picked up a Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Both were amazingly spot on with flavor and presentation. The day-glo pink cuppy with lemon-yellow frosting and the tiniest pink sprinkles is just charming as all get out. The flavor is a home run reminiscent of that cool refreshing drink on a hot summer day. The CCCD had me perplexed upon observation. Chocolate cake, with dough colored frosting and a few chocolate chips on top. The frosting definitely tasted like cookie dough. The surprise was when I took a whole bite to find a healthy knob of actual cookie dough resting comfortably inside the cake! The combo of these elements together makes for a WHOP-BAM-BOOM EXPLOSION in your mouth! ....and Erin just sits calmly in the corner, in the zone...diligently whipping up another taste sensation. You GO girl. (:
