Budget Finds: Little Chinese Mini Cakes

There's a street vendor who parks on Canal and Mott who makes the most delicious little mini cakes. Every time that a customer comes up to visit, he whips up a fresh new batch--not only because the cakes taste better hot and fresh, but because each customer gets a whole tray's worth. That might seem like a lot of cake, but they're smaller than donut holes and are virtually addictive. On a cold day like today, it's just the right treat. And at $1 for a whole tray of 20, there's no reason not to indulge!
