What's with all the retro sweets and alcohol all of a sudden?
First we had cupcakes and cocktails at Pazo.
Then we hear about the same thing at Milan.
Now it's Bundt cakes and prosecco.
That's what designer Mitchell Gold is dangling before Baltimoreans to lure them to his book party Thursday night.
Gold will speak and sign copies of his new book, "The Comfortable Home: How to Invest in Your Nest and Live Well for Less."
He'll also offer Bunt and bubbly, a combo that apparently reels 'em in.
"Early on, he discovered that two food items -- Bundt cakes and prosecco wine -- drew great crowds, so he ended up featuring a Bundt cake on the cover of his new book," says Vicki Aversa of Aversa Communications, who was promoting the event. "So now, every book party ... features all different flavors of Bundt Cakes from Las Vegas-based Nothing Bundt Cakes and prosecco."
If you're seeking home design help -- or just free cake and wine -- the event is 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday at The House Downtown in Belvedere Square.
