Sweet somethings

Starbucks Classic Coffee Cake

Like a grown-up Drake's coffeecake, Starbucks Classic Coffee Cake ($1.85 each) is addictive and comforting -- moist and rich, topped with sweet crumbs. At 629 calories (and almost half come from fat), Classic Coffee Cakes are not meant for everyday consumption. But, as an occasional treat, they're worth every awful calorie. One Starbucks worker claims that the same people who eat them on weekends have low-fat muffins during the week. Now that's planning ahead.
