The Tribeca Treats Flavor Competition is back!

The downtown Manhattan bakery, Tribeca Treats, is back for another round of its cupcake flavor competition. From Tuesday, Sept 8 to Friday, Sept 11 for just five bucks (every penny of which goes to ACE Programs for the Homeless), the bakery will be doling out samples of tasty treats from three or four semi-finalists, sweet-savvy New Yorkers who love spending time tinkering with their KitchenAids. This year, flavors such as chocolate hazelnut with Nutella filling, orange creamsicle and key lime are in the running. Think you've got the best taste in Gotham? You can submit your concoctions to the competition through tomorrow.

Tribeca Treats Taste-Off Sept 8–Sept 11, 10am–7pm. 94 Reade St between W Broadway and Church St (212-571-0500, tribecatreats.com). $5 for the day's sampling.
