Huascar & Company Bakeshop opened as H Bake Shop in 2013, the same year we won Cupcake Wars on Food Network. We have since moved to our new location at 453 West 54th Street, where my team and I work very hard to bring you small batches of delicious cupcakes, brownies, cookies, cheesecakes, flans, French macarons, coconut macaroons, brigadeiros, and custom cakes that are flavor-focused, using only the best ingredients! Warm regards, Chef Huascar XOXO
