SWEETS TRUCK
The woman behind Lil Rae Cakes is Jenny Rae, who started the successful “cake-ball” bakery after prompting from friends and family. Taste one or two of her cake balls and you can see why. Biting into a Lil Rae Cake is like biting into a piece of your southern grandma’s secret family recipe. It is both immensely rich and dense but perfectly light and fluffy at the same time. The vanilla is reminiscent of the animal cookies of your childhood. The lemon inspires visions of a gorgeous lemon pound cake with vanilla frosting dripping down the sides. And, luckily for all of us, that is just the beginning.

If there is something the world needs, a high-end mobile cupcake truck is it. Thankfully, Lev Ekster, a recent law school graduate, has decided to put the law degree on hold for now and launch just that. Cupcake Stop, the first mobile cup cake truck of NYC, has embraced the newest form of technology, Twitter, to inform his loyal sugar craving fans where his truck will be parked and what he is serving each day. Ekster takes ordinary flavors to the next level, serving a black and white cupcake, chocolate peanut butter swirl, psychedelic tie die, and even peanut butter and jelly. This is not your supermarket-prepackaged cupcake. Ekster is dedicated to serving the people of NYC the most decadent treat possible as well as on the go.
