“So during any downtime in the kitchen I experiment. “I get bored making the same recipe all the time,” explains McKenna. and Disney World (of all places!), they’ve also added their versions of Thin Mints and Chocolate-Covered Oreos, in addition to waffles and cinnamon buns hot from the oven every morning. As they’ve added bakeries in downtown L.A.
When McKenna opened the first bakery seven years ago, on New York City’s Lower East Side, Bab圜akes had mostly cupcakes, cakes, muffins, and teabreads eventually they expanded to chocolate chip cookies and cookie sandwiches (my personal favorite). Sure, Bab圜akes has celebrity cred ( Zooey Deschanel is a fan) but it’s the ever-growing inventory of treats that people come for. I was trying to remember what I was doing, hold a conversation, and breathe.” In the video, available on the just-released app, the two make gluten-free waffles, with blueberries, bananas, and chocolate chips, and we learn that Shipka would love to host Saturday Night Live. “Kiernan arrived for the shoot wearing an outfit that looked just like a Babycakes uniform!” says McKenna, who was visibly pregnant. When her mother chatted up McKenna, revealing that she and Kiernan bake from her cookbooks, the baker got bold and asked the actress to appear in her app she said yes. “I knew her from Mad Men, of course, but I didn’t want to embarrass her and say so.” Shipka came in again, and again that week.
“We opened the Larchmont store on December 30, 2011, and Kiernan came in with some of her girlfriends a week later,” reports Bab圜akes NYC owner Erin McKenna, referring to the most recent addition to Bab圜akes’ mini-empire, in the Larchmont section of Los Angeles. Dinosaur Jr.’s J Mascis even contributed a new Bab圜akes theme song.
Amidst videos with food writer Mark Bittman and Momofuku/Milk Bar’s Christina Tosi, the app sports recipes and shopping lists for cookies, cupcakes, sandwich bread, pretzels, pies, and donuts–all organic, vegan and gluten-free–all set to the music of Bubbles, Bleached and Cult. The iPhone/iPad app, available in the iTunes store, costs $3.99 and captures the essence of Bab圜akes’ happy hipster homemade vibe.
