Year 2008, the year where donuts frenzy invaded the market when J.CO Donuts and Big Apple Donuts were competing each other for their market share. The que were so long till it makes a big trend in the market where make all the people who pass by curious about it.
Now the trend has slightly changed. Cupcakes is slowly pick up its pace with more and more players came in to the picture. A cupcake or fairy cake, is a small cake designed to serve one person, frequently baked in a small, thin paper cup. Compared with larger cakes, frosting and other cake decorations, such as sprinkles, are common on cupcakes.I am honored to be invited for a cupcake decoration session and tasting on red velvet cakes which is pretty rare in Malaysia. The latest cupcake bakery that come in to the market is A Taste Boutique …. YES! You heard it right. The shop name is called A Taste Boutique …
Cupcakes are getting more popular to replace occasion cakes. It looks much pretty and easy to serve to the guest. You can write what ever you want on the cup cakes. Let us see the baking of cupcakes.

All the cupcake muffins were baked with variety of flavors ranging from raisins, chocs and vanilla. Here, they emphasize a lot on the overall balance of the whole piece of cupcakes. The muffins need to be taste good and not too sweet so that the icing can merge in nicely.
At the price of RM2.50 allows you to choose the flavor of the cakes rather than just the topping like some others. The flavors that they carries is like orange, vanilla, chocolate fudge, cookies & cream, chocolate chip, well so on so forth, its not just a name, its the actual ingredient itself. You also can choose between “Fondant & Butter Cream frosting” for the cupcakes design/decor whenever you wish to order.
With that kind of combination, no more “oh the same flavor kinda cupcakes again” .. which most of the bakery practice the same cupcake that come with a different flavor frosting. They don’t use normal fresh cream or those plain icing which is pretty boring ….. For the meantime, they are trying out to bake the cupcakes by using butter cakes too.
