The different tints and shades of the yellow merge to fill the bucket with a heap of warm caramel-colored pudding. This yellow dessert is a necessary pause against the sky blue reflections that rapidly change its pace in the city. As I walked into the bakery, the sun cast a pale shadow on the mint green themed walls. Bright colors of icing sugar popped out of the trays hosting delicious cupcakes. Red and blue shavings added a pink tint to these treats. The dark brown chocolate cake on the stand created a lovely contrast with the pale pastel hues of the walls. These brown pieces of cake produced a grey nostalgia of home, my mother’s white and yellow vanilla cake. Diverse people from everywhere were absorbed into the blackboard that said ‘Banana pudding’. Bakeries evoke joy just as the luscious green parks and create a distinct memory in my New York Experience.
