I decided to make a quick stop here to grab a cupcake to surprise a friend the other day. It's underground at First Canadian Place in what must be like a bakers row or something because it's literally surrounded by four other bakeries. Haha. Anyways, the cupcakes are reasonable priced (3.40 something for the one I ordered) and come in a nicely made carrier and bag if you want. Makes a nice looking gift for the price.
In terms of the actual cupcake, I ordered a Chocolate Peanut Butter and it was pretty good...if not great. I don't understand the current trend of putting way too much icing on the top of the cupcake. It shouldn't be to the point that the icing has the same volume as the cake itself, but anyways someone must like them like this because they're pretty common. The icing WAS rich and delicious however: very peanut buttery and decadent. The cake, on the other hand, was a little dry and unimpressive and indiscernible from the made-from-a-box variety. Slightly disappointing.
2.5/5 for the cupcake itself and 4/5 for price and presentation.
