You may think Halloween is the only time to indulge your sweet tooth but if you think about it, that day is only for candy. For something a bit more indulgent, the holidays are the perfect time to experience, share and enjoy some decadent desserts.

Godiva Parfait Chocolates

Crumbs Cupcakes

Continuing on the cupcakes road, Crumbs is another go-to for amazing cupcakes. The lines are usually long and one bite tells you why. You’ll feel like a kid again when eating a Crumbs cupcake. For this holiday season, they have introduced some delectable flavors. Some notables include the White Hot Chocolate

An angelic delight of Vanilla Cake filled with white chocolate mousse topped with vanilla cream cheese frosting edged with mini white chocolate chips and topped with marshmallows and white chocolate drizzle…yummm, it will indeed be a white Christmas. Or if you prefect something a bit more sinful, the Chocolate Snowball

Decadent Chocolate cake with chocolate fudge filling topped with chocolate mousse covered with chocolate ganache and edged with chocolate sprinkles. Other holiday must haves are Candy Cane, Egg Nog, Gingerbread, Peppermint Hot Cocoa and S’Mores. Did you know that Crumbs cupcakes come in four sizes? Get your favorite flavor in Taste (bite size), Classic, Signature (double the size of the Classic) or the Colossal (at 6 1/2 inches tall, its perfect as a birthday cake) .
