Coffee Meets Cupcakes

Jack’s Stir Brew Coffee has entered into an unusual partnership with Baked by Melissa, which is known for its bite-size cupcakes in a variety of flavors. Limited-edition Jack’s x Baked by Melissa cupcakes are available through Sept. 8 at Jack’s Amagansett and Sag Harbor locations as well as at Melissa’s retail outlets. It marks the first time Baked by Melissa cupcakes can be obtained on the East End.

The cupcakes are caffeine free.

Wines From the Loire

East Hampton’s Park Place Wines and Liquors is hitting the road again, this time to France’s Loire Valley. The next wine workshop, set for next Thursday as 6 p.m., will feature a lineup of wines from the region — zesty whites,

Tickets are $45 and nonrefundable.
