Happy Birthday to me!

DSC_0007It’s my birthday and I didn’t have to make my own cake! This is kind of a first. Thanks to The Electrician and Sweet to Lick, Long Island’s all-vegan bakery, I need not spend my day baking my cake. It’s orange creamsicle. And it’s spectacular, as those gorgeous little pipings indicate.

With the soft dollops of orange and vanilla, it was a big-time crowd pleaser. I only let them eat one slice (evil laughter) and quickly packed it up so I could enjoy it during the week.

Luckily The Electrician knew I was hoping to nab these Halloween treats from Chicago Vegan Foods. I am a true sucker for confections.
