Hellooooo!
If you didn't know, I am on vacation in Hawaii visiting family. I have been trying to try new foods and treats, ones that I haven't tried before. It's not as easy as it sounds! You would think there are all kinds of local bakeries, dives and diners to try and there are, they are just not that easy to find.
This time, I found a coffee shop/club/deli of sorts in Honolulu called the Fresh Cafe. What caught my attention, as my mom and I were stuck trying to find way throough back roads due to what can only be described as a HUGANTIC traffic jam, was the beautiful mural painted on the front of the building. Then I noticed the cute and plentiful outdoor seating and that there was a sign for espresso, my crack if you will. So, today, before hitting up the Honolulu Zoo, my sister, nephew, mother and I went to try the place out. It was delicious! Great sandwiches, coffee and CUPCAKES! They have a couple, from what I gather, suppliers of cupcakes. Cupcakers, like me, selling their goodies to the hungry public tummy. One local cupcakery, called 'Rise Up Cakes' bakes locally and vegan-ly. Another, (the cupcake I tried, I can't resist chocolate) was 'Frosted.' Let me tell you, it was fantastic! A very moist chocolate cake with a fantastically velvety vanilla buttercream icing. It went perfectly with my hand tamped creamy mocha.
Check them out!
