🧁 Top Bread: Boston’s Budget-Friendly Cake "Mystery Bags"—Crusty Edges, Sweet Deals Who knew leftover cake scraps could be this exciting? At Top Bread, they’re selling "cake edge (mystery bags)"—a grab-bag of leftover cake bits for under $3. Curiosity (and the promise of a cheap sweet treat) pulled me in, and I left with a big bag of (surprises). 🍰 What’s in the Bag? Randomness is part of the fun! My bag had: • Plain "tiger skin" cake (that classic, soft, swirled sponge). • Rich chocolate cake edges. • A hint of coffee-flavored scraps. • Bonus: A whole strawberry "towel roll" (a fluffy, rolled cake with cream and fruit)—total luck! Don’t let "leftover" fool you. These are fresh, moist, and just as tender as full slices. No dry crumbs here—they taste like they came straight out of the oven. 💡 Pro Tips Go Early: These bags fly off the shelves. I snagged the last one mid-morning; afternoons are usually sold out. Embrace the Mystery: No picking flavors, but that’s half the fun. It’s like a sweet lottery—you might score your new favorite. 📍 Why It Works Location: 77 Harrison Ave, Boston—convenient for Chinatown or Downtown wanderers. Value: Under $3 for a heaping bag? It’s a no-brainer for cake lovers on a budget. Top Bread’s cake mystery bags aren’t fancy, but they’re a delightful, affordable way to satisfy a sweet tooth. If you love soft, fresh cake and don’t mind a little surprise, this is your new go-to. #BostonBakery #BudgetTreats #CakeLovers #ChinatownEats
