If you're anything like me, you're always in the mood for dessert treats. Ice cream, brownies, cookies, cake, maybe a mix of all mentioned. I often compare myself to the children from Willy Wonka, constantly snacking on anything sweet and never having enough of it. Living in the greatest city in the world certainly has its perks, including some of the best places to get a sweet and tasty treat. So if you need a fix of some sugar, here are some great places to consider!
1. Baked by Melissa
Now, this place isn't considered an actual restaurant, but it's definitely worth the stop in. These cute and tasty cupcakes are absolutely to die for, and they Coke in a variety of great flavors! They have a flavor of the month (this month is Tri-Colored Cookies flavored) and each bite-sized cupcake is only $1! Definitely worth a trip to one of their many locations in the city!

2. Dylan's Candy Bar
It says it in the name. One of my personal favorite places in the city, Dylan's is home to hundreds of varieties of candy and sweet treats, including an area devoted to cakes shakes and other indulgent treats. Their decor is so cute, as seen above, and it's definitely one of the sweetest places around. A little bit on the pricier side, Dylan's is a great place to stock up on some of your favorite candies or simply enjoy a delicious piece of cake!

3. Black Tap
Known for their crazy shakes, Black Tap is definitely worth the wait on line. With three locations in the city, Black Tap's lines can take over an hour to get inside but it's soooo worth it. Their crazy shakes are loaded with sugar, starting with a flavor of shake and topped with all sorts of other toppings, like a cookie ice cream sandwich, cotton candy, and one their newest shake- an entire piece of cheesecake! This awesome place will have everyone on your Instagram salivating and wanting some!

4. Sprinkles Cupcake ATM
If you need a quick and easy snack, this is definitely your best bet. This legitimate ATM dispenses over fifteen types of cupcakes, including red velvet and cookies and cream flavors among many others! I couldn't believe my eyes when it showed the process of the dispensing, using a camera placed inside the store itself! The Cupcake ATM is one of a kind and truly a great place for a fast and sweet snack.
See it for yourself!
5. Pop-Tarts Cafe
That's right, a place devoted to the anytime-of-day snack. This awesome pop-up show offers treats like confetti-cupcake inspired nachos and cookies and creme inspired burritos! I don't know about you but this place sounds like a childhood dream!

6. DŌ
If you've ever been told that eating cookie dough is bad for you, here's your opportunity to eat it care-free. One of the newest crazes, DŌ allows customers to make cookie-dough creations, without worrying about the health risks. The line for this place usually is pretty long (I'm talking three blocks, people) so make sure to get there early!

Happy snacking!
