My friend John wanted me to try this cupcake in the Baker's Dozen and Pastry Fair in Rockwell Powerplant Mall. So last week, during my lunch break, he fetched us at the Board of Investments and we went straight to Rockwell.
There were a lot of flavors to choose from; but in the end, I got a Red Velvet cupcake (Php 55, $USD 1.17) - It was unbelievably good. The light chocolate cake with vanilla cream cheese frosting with a red star icing on top was elegant and at the same time very yummy.
It wasn't anything like Sonja's cupcakes. It had this homey feel and it didn't taste too sweet. It's also cheaper compared to most of the cupcakes in the market, considering its taste and packaging. And considering that it's a newcomer in the cupcakes scene in Manila, for me, it's one of the best cupcakes I have tasted. I'll surely grab some more.
Too bad, after the Bakers Dozen and Pastry Fair event, which runs on all weekends of May in Rockwell, you'll have to go to Alabang Town Center to get a hold of this rich, feel-good cupcakes.
They also have Vanilla, Dark Chocolate, Raspberry, Blueberry, Mocha, Passion Fruit, and their newest flavor, the Chocolate Chai Cupcakes.

ReplyDeleteThe cupcake looks simple with just the white frosting. But looks moist too... and from your description, it's worth a try. =)
ReplyDelete@MrsLavendula: True! You have to try it! :)
ReplyDelete@Badet: It's really worth a try :) I'm sure you'll love it too.
I'm a regular at the ATC branch. I love their cupcakes, too. But, they're not really cheaper; Ienne's cupcakes are smaller than Frostings and Sonja's. I compared their boxes. Hee. :)
