I bought these cupcakes at Cup-a-cake in Chermside's Westfield Shopping Centre. Well, how did they taste I hear you say...not that good! They tasted like they came out of a box and the icing was too buttery and too peppermint essenty. I think that they looked good but taste wise they didn't work for me.
Chocolate Forest
Peppermint Patty (this was my daughters choice)
Because of these disappointments, i've decided to make my own Chocolate Forest and Peppermint Patty cupcakes. I'll post my success/failure on Tuesday :)
these look nice though :) Get well soon !
ReplyDeleteSnooky doodle: I agree,they do look nice:) Thank you, I'm feeling a bit better today.
ReplyDeleteyeah I have bought cupcakes from the Farmers Markets from that fancy cupcake place they look amazing.. but the cake is dry and the icing is like pure icing sugar ..ICK!! makes you sick.. the kids eat the icing and then leave the dry cake for me.. I havent bought one since.. I tried her twice and twice no good.. I love moist cakes
ReplyDeleteThis Girl Loves To Talk: I haven't bought any cupcakes from the farmers market but I have wanted to buy ones from their shop...hmmm.
ReplyDeleteThe cupcakes look very nice!!
ReplyDeleteMaria: It's a pity they didn't taste as good as they looked :(
ReplyDeleteI tasted these same cupcakes and I have to say I disagree...I thought they were wonderfully moist and nothing like out of a box?! I also luuuuve their gluten free passionfruit cupcake...YUM!
ReplyDeleteI have had cupcakes from Cup-a-cake at Chermside and I think they are brilliant...finally a cupcake shop with yummy cupcakes....and a beautiful shop too.
ReplyDeleteI only discovered Cup-A-Cake at Chermside yesterday and being a cupcake fan, I have to say I was so dissapointed. I went a plain vanilla capcake and it was... well, like a brick! I enquired if they were fresh and the girl sort of hesitated then said they were made 'locally' and decorated in shop. I'll go back and try other flavours but only one more chance!
ReplyDeleteI bought 2 of these on sunday and they were gross. Bad dry cake but the worst part is the icing! Whoever makes these cup cakes should realise that taste is more important than looks.
ReplyDeleteI bought a box of 4 today. They were terrible!! The cake was dry and unappealing. The presentation is fantastic but unfortunately, the worst cupcakes I have ever eaten. Never again.
