My
stay in Brighton was only two days long, but it was literally as
sweet as the four days cake olympics in Dublin. The motto is “more
chocolate, less boredom”, and will soon be followed by “more
sport, less heart and weight related problems”. This post brings me
back to my childhood dreams of Hänsel and Gretel's marzipan house. I
strongly believe the Grimm Brothers inspired dark beauties such as
the Schwarzwald and the Sachertorte.

How
much chocolate can you imagine in the same plate? Well, they'll give
you more! Sit on a heart-shaped couch, listen to catchy Disney
classics, from the Jungle Books swing to the Aristocats's jazz, and
forget calories count. A lavish portion of chocolate surrounded by
chocolate and topped with chocolate is at the basis of the menu. And
if raspberry finishings and cream are the guests of honour at this
cocoa feast, just indulge in epicureism for a, alas too brief,
moment. Then visit the shop at 24 Duke Strret to admire the chocolate
sculptures (as seen on TV) or buy some edible souvenirs.

Angel
Food Bakery
The
name refers to the fact that their cupcakes probably come from
Heaven. And they sell the ingredients and the materials to realize
them, and also teach you how to bake them... real pro guardian
angels! The place isn't big, but once you're lost into tasting,
nothing else matters. Take the cooky and cream cupcake for example:
you start with an Oreo on top, and who doesn't love Oreos? The cream
is consistent but not heavy, delicious but not too sugary, and if you
think the base is the most boring part, you'll be surprised by a
chocolate touch. Looks like the staircase to Heaven is paved with
cupcakes!
