Some people have a sweet tooth and some have a savory tooth. Lucky (or not so lucky) for me, I have a serious sweet tooth. When I visited Buttercooky Bakery on Jericho Turnpike for the first time last weekend, I was very excited to try a variety of their sweets.
One of my go to desserts is always a cannoli. I chose the chocolate covered shell. Did I mention I had a sweet tooth? For some reason, I didn’t manage a picture of the cannoli… Let’s just say it was solid. However, if you’re into crumb cake or biscotti, I wouldn’t say Buttercooky is your first stop (more about that in another post). Can’t resist paraphrasing a Godfather quote to sum this up: “Leave the crumb cake and biscotti… Take the cannoli.”
I met a fellow GC customer at Buttercooky, who confessed to being a regular. He told me I couldn’t go wrong with the Grand Marnier Chocolate Mousse cake. I may have to come up with an occasion just to order this in the near future:
I spotted these on the way out and since Superbowl Sunday is coming up, you may want to order a few when you’re planning your menu:
Buttercooky’s cupcakes all looked picture-perfect. They would make a great addition to any party or shower. Who could resist these?
They also have a Manhasset location. But it’s time for a trip to the gym before I visit that one!

I like the picture of the last cupcakes which would be great for two of my grandchildren who have birthdays coming up next month. Sounds like a great place.
