Johnnie Cupcakes

On a fairly last minute request for a baby shower cake, Johnnie Cupcake came to our rescue. Situated upstairs in the Arndale centre, we ordered on the Saturday and it was ready for collection on Wednesday. Costing £40 for a large cupcake style cake, this additional treat doesn’t come cheap — however, upon eating the cake, I would go back for cupcakes next time I needed a sugar hit.
The cake itself was gorgeously decorated, just as asked, with blue icing, a duck and two baby booties. They had even iced ‘Danielle’s Baby Shower’ on the base board, which was a nice little touch and unexpected. When I collected (an easy transaction — gave the name and was handed the cake, no need to hand over a reference number etc, simple!) it was presented in a pink striped box with a little peep hole, meaning we could show it to others but didn’t need to take it out of the box.
Brought into work the day after for actually eating (we had no room after the baby shower meal) it really was delicious; sugary sweet icing balanced with the plain sponge cake with just a streak of jam.
Great for a treat and a good option for that next event you’re planning.
