Cake Flavours
The Basics - Vanilla & Chocolate
Classic Milky Vanilla
Using the best recipe for a vanilla cupcake (as voted by the Cupcake Queen herself). The texture of the cake is soft yet moderately dense (so that you still get a bite of real cake), moderately moist, creamy but still on the fluffy side. Perfectly balanced taste of butter, milk and of course, vanilla. Just nice, just perfect.

Cookie Crumble Cupcake
One of the best loved kiddy snack in cupcake form. Lots of crushed oreos mixed in the creamy milky batter, yummy vanilla frosting and sprinkled with more crushed oreos. Kids will go gaga over this.
Classic Chocolate
Has the same texture as the classic vanilla, only chocolate flavoured. Not overly moist, yet not dry. Like I said, just nice. Perfect for those those who are not a fan of overpowering chocolate taste.

Meet Joe Black
Prepare for a burst of peanut butter filling when you bite into this cupcake. Close you eyes and imagine Brad Pitt deliciously licking that spoon of PB. Death by chocolate!
Cookies & Cream
One of the best loved kiddy snack in cupcake form. Lots of crushed oreos mixed in the chocolatey batter, yummy creamy fresh cream frosting and sprinkled with more crushed oreos. Kids will go gaga over this.
Chocolate Mocha
A wonderful variation of the classic moist chocolate cupcake, a combination of bittersweet chocolaty taste that coffee lovers would enjoy.
What's on the menu?
Little Black Dress
The chocolate cupcake is moist, tender, not oily. The recipe calls for coffee granules, contributing to a bittersweet, kinda 'adult' taste to it. Top it off with poured chocolate ganache that will harden, just a bit, resulting in a shiny, glossy finish. Exactly the vision of a classy lady with a string of pearls about her neck.
Fresh Chocolate Mint
Not everybody's favourite choice of chocolate combo, but for those who loves the fresh breezy taste of peppermint, they would swear by this flavour (yours truly included). Subtle, not overpowering, works best with light peppermint buttercream.

Macho Mod Mint
Chocolate Mud
I tell ya, this cupcake is wicked. With large amount of butter, eggs and dark chocolate in the recipe, the texture is very rich and dense. For each sinful bite of this cake, you'll have to pray for the Lord's mercy.

Mississippi Mud Cupcake
Imagine a hippopotamus sloshing in the muddy Mississippi River (in case you wonder, there are no hippos in the Mississippi River, but I can't help my wild imagination) Served with cream cheese frosting and mini chocolate chips.
Hershey's Perfectly Chocolatey Cupcakes
This chocolate cupcake is extremely moist and has a very rich and strong chocolate aroma. Not overly sweet, the texture is fluffy, almost muffin like, but melts in your mouth as you bite. If you like your cake SUPER moist, this is the best pick.

Black-a-berry (credit to
Zalin for the name suggestion!)
A deep contrast of the almost obscenely black cupcake and dark chocolate buttercream with a luscious strawberry on top.
Cinta Coffee (credit goes to Miss
Cinta Coffee herself)
Moist Mocha Cake with coffee buttercream. I just love the pure coffee aroma in the buttercream, as I used strong coffee to flavour it.
PB & J
The favourite flavour of a typical American kid's cafeteria lunches - Peanut Butter & Jelly. Moist choc cake, peanut butter buttercream & of course, strawberry jelly!
Haffa Jaffa
My own little twist of the Jaffa Cakes that is widely popular in the UK. It's simply a moist choc orange cake with orange buttercream and white chocolate sprinkles.

The Fruity Range
Sweet Strawberry
Has the same texture as the basic vanilla, but with subtle strawberry flavour. No strawberry paste is used, only a dollop of good old strawberry jam (and perhaps with some chopped strawberries as mix-in, optional). Pink colouring/paste for the substantial strawberry look is also optional. Do let the baker know your preference.

Juicy Vanilla Peach
Again, same texture as the basic vanilla, with the sticky sweetness taste of luscious peach syrup. Works best with chopped peaches.

The traditional dessert, an old time favourite. Simply served with whipped cream frosting.
Life's Just Peachy
Peachy cupcake with peaches mix-in, lemony peach flavoured buttercream and topped with a sliver of peach (sadly, of the canned kind). Do let me know if you want fresh fruits for the topper.
Zesty Lemon
Another fruity favourite. Fresh tangy taste, same texture as the basic vanilla. A good measure of real lemon zest is used. A delectable sweet tangy taste that makes you want to reach for a second one.
