Says Lipster:

Honestly, I think that sweets need a little more air (or word?) time here at Cafe Society. Every other day includes a post about green chile, but you can only squeeze out two measly dessert posts within a span of 7 months? As a local dessert professional (both in creating and eating them...ha!), I know for a fact that there are FAR more desserts worth taking note of in the Denver metro than the 10 you've listed here!
