Tired of going to a local ice cream parlor for desert when on vacation? Lucky for both tourists and locals Barrington Bites has the perfect treats to savor after a nice dinner, or even if you just have a sweet tooth. Barrington Bites specializes in making gourmet mini cupcakes and is located in the Chef Shop at 31 Railroad Street in Great Barrington, Mass.
Bakers and friends Sherri Gorelick and Wendy Weinberg spent months on perfecting their recipes and getting feedback from potential customers, which resulted in 40 unique flavors that were keepers. They have flavors such as “Chocolate Stout” made with decadent dark chocolate, infused with Guiness buttercream, or how about trying and “Elvis” made with a chocolate banana cupcake with smooth peanut butter buttercream and topped with…BACON! Don’t knock it till you try it.
They also have many ever changing season flavors like Pumpkin, Eggnog, Maple, Gingerbread and many more. For the month of August try some summer flavors that are light and tangy like ”Pink Lemonade” or “Fresh Strawberry”. Stuffed flavors such as an “Almond Joy” is a dark chocolate cupcake stuffed with almond/coconut buttercream and topped with fresh shredded coconut, or a “Creamsicle” which is an orange flavor cake stuffed with Madagascar bourbon and vanilla whipped buttercream.
The flavors all sound so exciting and the proof is there, all you have to do it try one! And don’t be too sad if you’re not coming to the Berkshires, because you can go online and order them to be shipped to you wherever “home” may be.
