Hey Brooklyn [Episode 49: Robicelli's Cupcakes]

You bitches have this whole blog reading thing down pretty well now, but don't you think its time you expanded your horizons!? Like with a podcast? Like with the Hey Brooklyn PODCAST!? Each week, we'll tell you about the creative BK mofo that our buds over at Hey Brooklyn feature. On deck this week: Matt-n-Allison Robicelli from Robicelli's Cupcakes.

As you all know, we're big ass Robicelli fans around these parts. Dating back to cupcakegate 2k10 (which they discuss at length during the podcast), we've known that these folks are the real deal. These guys make dee-licious, quirky cupcakes (if you haven't tried them, I suggest you head out to Blue Apron on Union Street RIGHT NOW), and sometimes they even fry them! If you listen all the way through the podcast, there is even a bonus track where they talk about their wedding...at WHITE CASTLE!?

Listen to the whole podcast HERE (and subscribe to Hey Brooklyn in itunes).

[GUEST POST] ST. PATTY’S 2K10: BOMBED ON ROBICELLI’S FRIED IRISH CAR BOMBS

When I first read FIPS’ 40,000 posts about fried Robicelli's cupcakes, I thought, “This blog must have so many readers that they can spare a few, because Erica and Meredith are trying to kill my ass.” I mean, FRIED CUPCAKES. Really?

Yes, really.

GET DRUNK ON CUPCAKES: DEEP FRIED REDUX

St. Pat knows his fucking cupcakes. (Cupcake photo: Amber)

Unless you're totally illiterate actually blind, by now, you know that the FIPS staff basically come at the mere mention of Robicelli's deep fried cupcakes.  Lest you forget, they're like sex.  Or drugs.  Probably both at once.

Since you're already all going to be smashed to smitherines, drunk as fuck, or whatever collegeate-derived substitute you use to describe your incapacitated, alcoholic selves on St. Patrick's Day tomorrow, why not visit cupcake nirvana, too?  ESPECIALLY if you missed Part I at Union Hall.

Robicelli's will be instating the return of the deep fried cupcake at The Double Windsor tomorrow night, frying up Car Bomb cupcakes (chocolate Guinness cake with Jameson whiskey ganache and Bailey's buttercream, yes pul-leaze) from 6 p.m. until the cupcakes run out, or everyone at the bar is too gone to work a deep fryer.  Or stand.  Whichever comes first.

I'm not sure who else from the FIPS crew will be there, but this shit's right around the corner from my place, so I'll see you all there.  I'm boring and sober, but hand me your cameras, and I promise I'll document all of the things you don't want to remember on Thursday morning.  And I can tell you who won't be there - motherfucking babies.

FRIED ROBICELLI'S CUPCAKES: EVERYTHING I DREAMED OF AND MORE

photo: The Amber Show

Honestly, y'all: if you were not able to make it to Union Hall last Friday for our Cupcakegate 2K10 Resolution event with Robicelli's, I feel really, really, REALLY bad for you (sidenote: there were SIX FRIGGIN babies there when I arrived at 6pm).

I gotta admit, after all of this friggin build-up, even I was wondering if all this fried cupcake bullshit was gonna turn out to be all that-n-a-bag'o chips, but HOLY MOTHER OF CHRIST was that shit goooooood.
