From luscious red velvet to tempting toppings aplenty, cupcakes are going strong as the city’s dessert of choice. But has your family tasted the exceptionally wide variety of them? Dig into the sweet obsession with Sugartooth Tours, which is hosting a new Cupcake Crawl Across Manhattan tour. Groups are brought beyond the mass bakeries to some of the lesser known bakeshops where they can taste a total of six different treats and enjoy fun cupcake trivia in between. Available most Wednesday through Sunday afternoons, this tour is a great way to explore a very sweet side of our city. Tickets are $50 and include all tastings. Guests must bring their own MTA cards. Appropriate for children 8 and older (or those capable of a three-hour tour using public transit). sugartoothtours.com
