Mmm mmm...

A day initially planned to go birthday-gift shopping (for a girl friend's glorious 21st birthday) ended up being a day of Ikea-food splurging and...

CUPCAKES!!!

After miles of hunting for a perfect present to leave a lasting impression (and satisfy a longing sweet tooth), I stumbled upon cuppacakes by +wondermilk! Go visit their site and you will fall in love (drop-dead) with their OMGawd-SO-PRETTY!!! works of art, which will end up in your tummy somehow!


They are almost, too good, to eat! ;P

As of 1.00 p.m. 30th January, they are fully booked till 16th February!!!

So, we got a pretty rosey garden themed box for the Girl-Who-is-Turning-Legal-Tomorrow!


Cos she farking doesn't want politely declined alcohol.

Since we were already in the area, the hubby and I went to the Curve to err... jalan-jalan, cari makan? and ended up in the Ikea Restaurant for lunchie.

Walking down the aisle between the payment counters and the snacks place ... is a distinctive olfactory stimulating experience:

The smell of new furniture and other household appliances + The aroma of fresh currypuffs and hotdogs!!!!~!!!@!!@!!!


Anyways, I terjumpa the cupcake chic place... so decided to pop in for a peek then the people there tried to stuff me with shortbread and err... encouraging me to join the store's facebook group for exclusive discounts!

WTFDOT.



So this is what I we bought.


Dono what the names were.

Got one CNY special with lychee, apple, 24 karat (which is a carrot cake! *COUGHS*), some apple thingy, envy (green tea...) and the red velvet.

Tasted fine. Didn't hate it. Don't love it either. Passable.

Appearances - Not flattering. The names however, are a tad too imaginative.

Anyways, I googled and found their site... And I quote and unkuote:

"
When we started Cupcake Chic in early 2007, we decided we would bury the rampant "dumb blonde" cupcakes (which looked pretty but lacked quality) that had started to flood urban Kuala Lumpur and bring back THE cupcake to its original heyday."

DUMB BLONDE???

WTFDOT.

Is that why the cupcakes from YOU are so ... unglam?

'Nuff said.


Today was not a productive day from the perspective of my upcoming Finals though.


P.S. Back to studying Drugs Affecting Gastrointestinal Motility.


Hmm. How appropriate.
