Top 10 Places to Get Sweets In NYC
Ryan Schare

My favorite thing to do is go into NYC and try all of the instagram famous desserts. My best friend and I share a food instagram (shout out @welive4food) and definitely get excited when we find out about a new place to try. Here is a list of some of the best places we have been to:

1. Black Tap Meatpacking

Black Tap is created for the Instagram world. While they definitely have juicy burgers, you’re definitely going to want to try out their “crazy shakes” and make sure to take a picture!

2. Max Brenner

Max Brenner is chocolate heaven. Chocolate is incorporated into every meal, whether you’re getting fries with cocoa powder dusted on top or going straight for the chocolate syringe, there’s no way a chocolate lover will be disappointed.

3. Baked by Melissa

Baked by Melissa is known for their bite sized cupcakes that come in an array of flavors. They have a new flavor every month but don’t forget about the classics like rainbow!

4. Jars By Dani

These handmade cakes in a mason jar are sure to make any dessert lover happy, between the layers of mousse, cake, sprinkles, and brownie there’s bound to be something for everyone.

5. Sugar Factory

Known for their gigantic goblet drinks, Sugar Factory has attracted many celebrities to come try their restaurant. If the drink menu wasn’t sweet enough, be sure to check out the candy shop in the front of the restaurant for a sweeter experience.

6. Magnolia Bakery

Magnolia is a classic bakery with a beautiful cupcake display. Many people love the banana pudding but I always go for the cupcakes with the light pink frosting.

7. Sugarfina

This candy boutique has the classiest candy around. Packaged in lucite boxes, Sugarfina is most known for their champagne gummy bears.

8. Momofuku Milk Bar

Momofuku is known for the birthday cake truffles, cereal milk ice cream and their crack pie. The bakery even paired up with model Karlie Kloss to sell her Kookies!

9. Big Gay Ice Cream Shop

Big Gay Ice Cream started as an ice cream truck with sarcastic flavors and finally opened as a shop 2 years after their seasonal truck opened. They’re known for their flavor “the salty pimp”

10. Dominique Ansel Bakery

Dominique Ansel was ranked as the number one pastry chef in the world. He’s known for the cronut, cookie shot, frozen s’more and blossoming hot chocolate!

Once you have tried these sweets, post a picture and tag #welive4food so we can see what you enjoyed!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
