Diamonds May Be a Girl’s Best Friend, But Milk Bar’s Red Velvet Treats Are the Key to My Heart

02.02.2023Author: The Suite Staff

This is a PSA For All My Secret Admirers (I’m Sure There Are Many of You)

I figured I would just make it easy for you, and let you know exactly where to find the key to my heart.

No, it’s not in a diamond ring, or a bouquet of red roses, or a heart-shaped box of chocolates. It’s not in a Shakespearean sonnet (though, sure, you may compare me to a summer’s day), or a boombox outside my window playing Peter Gabriel’s 1986 romantic hit “In Your Eyes.”

No—the key to my heart is baked right into the unapologetically sweet and deliciously indulgent collection of Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake treats from the iconic and award-winning bakery Milk Bar. These babies really up the ante on decadence and are a guaranteed way to sweep me off my feet. But if you somehow aren’t familiar with Milk Bar, let me fill you in.

Milk Bar: To Make Me Your “Butter Half”

The brainchild of dessert mastermind Christina Tosi, Milk Bar was started in 2008 in New York City. Since then, it’s grown into a full blown bakery empire with over a dozen locations across the country and a cult following that includes celebrities like Taylor Swift and Chrissy Tiegen.

And now, they offer nationwide 2-day shipping for their delicious offerings, which can be scheduled in advance up to 30 days. This means everyone can try confections from the world-famous bakery from the comfort of their own homes. It also means I can be wooed from afar.

Milk Bar rolled out the Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake collection on Valentine’s Day and everyone loved it so much that they decided to extend its availability. This red-velvety-goodness comes in the form of a cake or mini-cake truffles, and I will be accepting either or both of them as ploys for my love.

Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake

Rich, layered, decadent, one-of-a-kind… (and I’m not just talking about my ideal date). This Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake is the ultimate way to say “be mine”: perfectly-moist double chocolate red velvet cake is layered with red velvet frosting, cheesecake filling, and topped with red velvet crumbs. 

If sweets are my love language, then this cake is the dictionary. I’m thinking of a dimly lit room, scattered rose petals, and a bottle of Veuve Clicquot with this baked masterpiece as the only thing between us…

Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake Truffles

When it comes to bite-sized treats, these truffles blow a box of chocolates out of the water. Filled with chocolate cake, chocolate chips, and cream cheese, coated in a barely-there chocolate shell, and rolled in red velvet crumbs, these beauties are everything delicious about the Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake rolled into irresistible cake truffles. 

Save the cheesy pick-up lines and opt for these cheesecake truffles instead. They’re guaranteed to sweep me off my feet (just let me finish eating them, first). 

And If That Mockingbird Don’t Sing…

Then get me a cake. I don’t need the diamond ring. This Milk Bar collection really adds a whole new meaning to “irresistible.” But that’s no secret, and I’m not the only Milk Bar devotee out there, so these treats won’t last long. Luckily you can pre-order up to 30 days in advance, so I’d suggest getting a move on!

If you’re looking to win me (or, fine, anyone else) over, check out the Red Velvet collection now to order these deliciously decadent desserts while you still can.
