Now the sweet-toothed can get baked goods delivered right to their door with Dulcinea, a Manhattan-based business that delivers desserts on a subscription basis. Dulcinea operates in a similar fashion to Milk Made (remember them?), another New York business that delivers ice cream.
Every Wednesday, Dulcinea delivers ‘a wholesome indulgence,’ says Springwise, to subscribed customers who pay a fee per month. The so-called wholesome indulgences, which are made from local produce and organic, sustainably produced ingredients, include jumbo rhubarb muffins, blueberry lemon pound cake, and strawberry scones among other delights. I wish I lived in New York!
