The Bronx is Brewing!! Introducing Bronx Brewery

Photo credit: thebronxbrewery.com

Nestled in the Mott Haven section of the Bronx, Bronx Brewery recently debuted to the public with an American-style pale, which according to its website is " brewed with five different barley malts, generous additions of Cascade and Centennial hops, and a unique strain of yeast.  The British, German and American malts used to provide a blend of caramel, biscuit, and nutty malt flavors, providing a pleasant bitterness with an intense floral and citrus aroma.  It is dry-hopped, unfiltered and unpasteurized."

Since its launch a few weeks ago, Bronx Brewery can be found in 11 locations throughout the Bronx and Manhattan including Amity Hall and DBGB.

Meet the Newest Cake Mama

I recently worked with Lisa Santiago Nieves on one of my fundraising events.  Lisa, a native of the Bronx started baking at nine years old.  While most little girls dabbled in entrepreneurialism through lemonade stands, Lisa sold cupcakes and icees from her house in Fordham Road each summer.  One summer, she made $3,000!

Today, Lisa is based in New Jersey, but delivers across the Tri-State area. 

Below are some of her artistic works:

Pony cupcake

Lollipop cakes

Puerto Rico Cake

Sponge Bob Squarepants Cake
