One of the things that I've enjoyed most recently about The Broke Socialite is the dawn of the
Sugar Coma series. If y'all will remember, it's a dessert crawl that started here in Atlanta about a year ago that I' ve now decided to take
*drum rolls, please* NATIONWIDE! Yes. My team and I have identified nearly 40 major markets with Sugar Coma and other lifestyle-centric and experience-based tours. You know, as easy as it is to go to the movies or grab dinner, I created this series,
The Broke Socialite Does..., out of sheer selfishness. You likely will not be surprised to find that I bore easily (smile); so these events are a representation of the things I'm passionate about and the things I like to do just toss a luxury shuttle bus and an element of social meeting (we're tweeting and Facebook-ing all the while). The next immediate tour, Sugar Coma Redux, will be held here in Atlanta on May 1. If you can believe it, the tour sold out in 36 hours. A.MA.ZING. If you're in Atlanta, fret not. Soon registration will open for the following:
- June 12 - Sugar Coma OTP (bakeries, cupcakeries and restaurants in Alpharetta, Roswell, Cumming, Milton, Johns Creek)
- June 19 - Freeze! (Atlanta's best frozen treats - ice cream, milk shakes, frozen yogurt, gelato, sorbet)
The first foray outside of Atlanta will be
Savannah, GA; so the team and I will be taking a trip there soon to explore our tour options. How awesome, right?
The May 1st tour will feature the dear Tami of
Running With Tweezers as our Sugar Mama/tour goddess. She is an amazing stylist, wonderful photographer and an all-around darling.

I'm an atlantan! How do I get in on the Sugar Coma action? Is it for baking bloggers only?
ReplyDeletePumped for you!! Great news!

ReplyDeleteTBS...Holla at me when you are ready to come to Philly. I would love to assist you with it here.
ReplyDeleteRALEIGH & of course we want Sugar Coma ; ) Who wouldn't!
ReplyDeleteWhoot! *fist pump* :)
ReplyDeleteWoot Woot! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteNationwide???? Uh-ooh does that mean MA could be on the tour map???? I would sooooo love that. Oh, please, Oh please, Oh please. I'm seeing ColdStone Creamery somewhere on that freeze tour.
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome idea - and a great way to promote small businesses (which so many desert spaces are). Great work!
ReplyDeleteIncredible tour; I've heard about this thing everywhere (Bakerella. etc), and if you don't bring it to Florida, there will be a host of very unhappy sugar-loving peeps! Rah! :) Bring it on, Socialite. We want SUGAR.
ReplyDeleteOh no! I missed another one (5/1). I have become your fan on FB so I will be ready for the summer.
ReplyDeleteHurray for Sugar Coma, thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteOk so when you're ready for NY I'm already drafting a list...I wish I was visiting ATL during one of the tours. Maybe in June!!! :-)So excited for you!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to thank you for the tweet about @Camicakes, but my internet connection wasn't quite right..I bought a few $1 cupcakes & the Raspberry, chocolate, almond..OMG!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see you in San Francisco! Absolute faves are Miette, Tartine, and That Takes the Cake (awesome husband and wife team bakin' up the yummiest cupcakes).
ReplyDeleteAwesome! As an original Sugar Baby I can't tell you how much I loved the first Sugar Coma Tour! And, I'm an ice cream gal so Freeze is so on my list!
ReplyDeleteDo your thang, girl!
Winks & Smiles,
Wifey
Dear TBS,
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned all my favorite hangouts starting with No Mas Cantina!! Your blog is quickly become my daily pleasure. Keep shinning.
What a fun idea, can you come to St. Louis?
ReplyDeleteSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO proud of you! Congratulations on the world tour—too fun. I HAVE to come to Sugar Coma here in ATL... perhaps June 12? Oh. Yeah.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Raleigh native, recently transplanted Atlantan and I think Raleigh would be a FAB place for you to stop! Let me know if you need suggestions - i'm somewhat of a Raleigh ambassador! :-)
ReplyDeleteTBS, how exciting for you to bring the Sugar Coma to Savannah. I live in Savannah and my favorite sweet treat spots are Back in the Day Bakery and Wright Square Cafe. Can't wait to hear more details!
ReplyDeleteLove it! South Florida, please :)
ReplyDeleteCome to Augusta, Georgia! It is only 2 hours from Atlanta, and we need all the fun we can get!
ReplyDeleteThe pageant was My 1st, so I missed the kick-off! I will be there for the next coma pow wow!!
