I'm not a big on sweets but here's a few places that I actually like to frequent when the cravings do come. I go to some more than others depending on the level of sweetness. Perhaps you've been to these places before, if you have please leave a comment below letting me know what you thought of the places!
Everybody seems to be on the cupcake hype and bandwagon, I personally find them too sweet- but Sprinkles in Newport Beach is a really popular place with the locals to grab a few on the way out. :)
I picked out the Coconut one, which I thought was pretty good. Here's a tip: Grab a bottle of milk while eating this. It balances out the sugar.
I'm a big fan of sweet waffles versus the savory ones. There are two places I'm just in love with, one is called Love To Go in San Gabriel and the other is Cafe Haus in Walnut. Both very good places!
Chocolate Toffee Waffles from Love to Go! Great pick and very popular. :)
Here's to ice cream sandwiches! Diddy Riese in Westwood sells relatively cheap cookies and ice cream for $1.75- It used to be $1.25. The price has been jacked up the last few years, but it's still cheap compared to other places.
My favorite: Cinnamon cookies with Cookies n' Creme!
And finally snow ice, it's been popping up everywhere these days, but the only place I like the best still is Class 302 in Rowland Heights. Although I like Class 302, Ten Ren's (Also in Rowland Heights) has some pretty snow, it's decent enough to eat with plenty of condensed milk. :)
Strawberry Mango Snow Ice from Ten Ren's-
Here's to all the sweet lovers out there! Cheers! Until next time!
Ciao!

Sugary Goodness!
Wasn't feeling too well last night, so we decided to stay in for the night. :) After a light chicken noodle soup with rice for dinner we decided to bake some desserts. We scoured the web to look for something I would want to eat and we fell upon a recipe for Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread. It looked delicious and we had all the simple ingredients at home already. So off to the kitchen to try it out!
We started out with all purpose flour and, sugar, yeast, whisked eggs, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Later made the filling with nutmeg, cinnamon, and more sugar.
Whisked it all together, waited for the dough to rise before rolling it out and putting the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar mix. We then cut the dough into equal strips vertically and horizontally.
We then stacked it together and placed it in a PAMed glass loaf pan and let sit for another 10 minutes for it to rise.
We preheated the oven to 350 degrees, wrapped the two loaves to let it rise some more for another 10 minutes. We then set the timer for 35 minutes and placed them into the oven after.
35 Minutes Later...
Warm, delicious and yummy Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread! :)
Here's the link to the recipe that we used: https://sites.google.com/site/foodsnotsprintablerecipes/cinnamon-and-sugar-pull-apart-bread. It only took us about two hours because of all the rising/waiting that needed to be done. But I had so much fun making this and I hope sharing this recipe gives you guys the same feeling. ^__^
