Can’t decide? If you head to Sugar Bakery & Sweet Shop, 422-424 Main Street, East Haven, you might not have to. Its September menu includes a coffee flavored cupcake with milk chocolate mousse, topped with chocolate butter cream and an Oreo cookie. Also on the menu for the month: The Elementary (peanut butter cupcake, jelly filling, marshmallow Fluff, and peanut butter swirled frosting); the Chocolate Salted Caramel (a Cabernet cupcake...what?!?!, black cherry infused ganache, and chocolate buttercream); Apple Pie (apple cinnamon cupcake, apple pie filling, vanilla butter cream); and a Razzle Dazzle (chocolate cupcake, raspberry infused chocolate ganache, raspberry buttercream). There are lots more to pick from, and several vegan and “gluten-free friendly” options as well. To check out the whole menu, and to find out more about the two cupcake trucks (one of which is usually at Clinton Crossing on the weekends), visit www.thesugarbakery.com.
