What sweeter way is there to spend a beautiful Sunday afternoon than with cupcakes? This Sunday, a Cupcake Crawl of four of New York City's most notable and scrumptious cupcakes spots will take place in Chelsea and Union Square.

The Cupcake Crawl starts at Cupcake Café, a celebrity favorite. Know for their moist cupcakes topped with intensely thick, rich buttercream frosting, it will be hard to resist having more than one.

The second stop takes you to Brooklyn's Aunt Butchie's Bakery (in Chelsea) where you will be able to sample their Cookie Dough Cupcake. First in ice cream, now in cupcakes, I do not think anyone could find a better place to put cookie dough.

Then, you will find yourself at Billy's Bakery. Once the owner of the legendary Magnolia's Bakery, Billy's Bakery brings nostalgia to cupcakes. If simplicity is what you are looking for, try their Traditional Cupcake - your choice of vanilla or chocolate cake and vanilla buttercream frosting.

End the tour at Amy's Bread in Chelsea Market. Known specifically for the fresh, daily baked breads, Amy's Bread also produces some of the finest desserts in Chelsea. Amy's cupcakes are also made daily, but only a visit to the bakery will reveal their selection.

If you decide to donate, 100% of the donation goes to the Food Bank of New York City, which helps to feed the hungry. So while you are helping yourself to cupcakes, help feed someone else. It will only set you back $5.00.

On the Cupcake Crawl, purchases of desserts are optional, but you would be insane not to!
