Pastries: Cupcake Love From Cupcake Lab

My colleague and I were out on one of our lunch (mis)adventures when we came across this cupcake place at The Podium. Usually a sucker for trying out new munchies, we set off to buy every flavor available in the store.

One of the things that surprised me was the very classy packaging - from the foil cupcake liners to the paper bag. I thought it's a present on its own.

Their serving comes in regular and bite-sized pieces.  I wasn't able to take photos of the bite-sized ones because we pretty much attacked in when we got back from lunch.

Can't wait to bring some home to A!

(from top left moving clockwise: Green Tea, Banana Wheat, Chocolate Chip, Ferrero, Cheesecake, Oreo Surprise)

Now for the lowdown:

The green tea was interesting. There's definitely tea there, the green cupcake base would show it. It's just that the taste is too strong...even for A.

As for the Oreo Surprise, it literally gave a rainbow out of every bite. The frosting was good, but the cupcake base had a dense element in it that made it a bit difficult to finish.

Of all their cupcake base flavors, I would have to say that my favorite is the banana wheat. Now, if we add on the Ferrero frosting on it, we got ourselves an absolute winner!

Here's a list of what they have to offer:

I recommend trying the place out. I shall make a return trip myself to try the other flavors.
