    Black Velvet
    Conor D.

    Black Velvet Cupcakes is the place where dessert dreams have become a reality thanks to the creative founder and owner Orlando. The store is located a few minutes walk from Kings Cross Station and the store is absolutely stunning inside. It truly defines what Black Velvet is all about, it's luxurious and it's a step into an imaginative cupcake heaven. The store offers cup cakes in over 100 flavour and the menu is constantly changing thanks to their need to experiment. The signature flavours include lemon vodka, black velvet, salted caramel. They have unusual flavours on offer too such as bacon, hot dog, salmon among others. I had one of the salted caramel as well as the cookies and cream flavour. They were both fluffy and fresh and made with love. The concept of the store is share the love and trust me you will find that hard to do because you will want to eat all the cupcakes yourself. Black Velvet also offers amazing hot chocolate. It's a must for any connoisseur of fine chocolate. The specialty hot chocolate here is Ivory Coast 40% chocolate and it's truly splendid. It will blow your mind. They offer 5 flavours so will have you coming back to try them again and again. Black Velvet Cupcakes offers hand made candles and luxury chocolates so it's perfect spot to visit if you would like to spoil that someone special. I bought one of the Handmade sit candles that are designed specifically for men. The great thing about the candle is it doubles as a moisturiser. Black Velvet is a master creation that brings something beautiful to Sydney that needs to be seen and celebrated. I recommend a visit and Share the LOVE.

    A friend bought me a cupcake from this place as a lovely gesture. And what a tasty surprise! With the perfect amount of sweetness to hit the spot, and not make you overly sick, these cupcakes are sure to put a smile on your face. Additionally, all cupcakes are beautiful, a work of art!

The first thing you notice entering My Little Cupcake is the sugary smell. The second thing is the beautiful gifts. It's not just a cake store but also a specialty cup cake accessory store and baby gift shop. Prices are not outlandish but expect to pay for quality. I couldn't help myself and walked out with some stripy circus cup cake holders, a floral apron and gorgeous material bunting flags - all for under $50. The website doesn't do the cake decoration skills of the baker justice. They look much more scrumptious in real life as do the lamingtons - best looking lamingtons ever ($4). For traditional size cupcakes you pay $4 each, for min size you pay $54 per 2 dozen. They do make gluten free cupcakes but you need to order more than six. 10% discount for orders over 100 pieces. If you fancy making your own professional looking cupcakes My Little Cupcake sell party packs with all the edible decoration bits and pieces for $45. Yum and fun!!

    Classic Cupcake Co, located in Mosman is a beautiful cupcakery selling cupcakes, coffee, ice cream…read moreand baking products. In addition, they also host cupcake decorating classes. If you're there just to buy a cupcake, you'll see they sell a wide range of flavours that rotate so you'll find that you can try different flavours each time you visit. Anzac, apple crumble, banana bread latte, banoffee pie, carrot, choc vanilla, chocolate, cookies and cream, maple, red velvet, rocky road and strawberry to name a few. Using locally sourced free range eggs, organic vanilla, pure butter and Callebaut chocolate, these cakes look pictures perfect are delicious to boot. The cupcake classes are are a brilliant idea for something fun to do or as a unique gift for a friend or family member. I tried out the 2 hour Buttercream succulent class where I learnt how to pipe two-tone buttercream flowers using whipped buttercream to make the cupcakes look just like the succulent plants! It's a good little class with an intimate setting of 10 people (over 16 years of age), it gives the host time to work around the group. Absolutely suitable for beginners, because I certainly was a beginner, as were most people in my class. It gives you tips how to work with buttercream, piping techniques and learning the basics which you can then buy some products if you so please and hone in your skills at home. I found this class to be a great introduction to decorating your cupcakes using a variety of piping techniques. When joining this class, the cost includes the host / teacher for the class, teaching you how to pipe different types of flower buds for 6 different cupcakes. The host, Joyce was fun, informative and took the class through the lessons at a good pace. You learn how to prepare and fill piping bags with butter cream, how to pipe different leaves and delicate petals, how to work with different colours and two tone piping to create beautiful arrangements on the top of preprepared vanilla cupcakes. At the end of the class, you also receive a certificate and the recipes to take up to replicate. Your cupcakes are packed into a box to take home to show off your masterpieces. The store hosts Buttercream flower cupcake classes, cake pops, cupcake baking and decorating masterclass, kids parties and team building. Book online for your preferred class and you'll receive 10% discount on all items purchased in the shop on the day of class. Even better, you can use your "dine and discover" voucher for the class at $25 off! Book now, for a fun activity, either for yourself or as a gift.

They mostly make large cupcakes with cute little designs which are put in a little box when you buy them. There are also mini cupcakes packages up to take too. Great location in waverley, not many other businesses like this (one other up in charing cross). Tasty and fresh. The only negative is they don't have eftpos, though the kind lady was trusting for my friend to go back and pay later in one instance. Check it out - good for birthday gifts

The makers of cupcakes and special occasion made to order celebration cakes - if you don't find something here that will instantly brighten your day then you are probably against sweets or you simply don't like fun. The cakes themed to your choice and you should definitely pre-order as there is always a steady stream of people through there collecting their delicious baked goodness. With its availability of parking in the side streets and on a bus stop it is also a great place to grab your morning coffee. The staff are friendly, will have a chat and most importantly remember your order if you visit more than once. Ask yourself who would complain about perking up to the smell of fresh coffee and freshly baked cupcakes.

    I'm a foodie, NOT a shopper!…read more After walking around Sydney's CBD, we visited the famous Queen Victoria Building, a late 19th-century Romanesque Revival marketplace that is now a shopping mall filled with high-end boutiques and eateries. We crossed George Street to The Strand, where we were in search of the world-famous patisserie, Black Star Pastry. Although I don't use IG or FB, I heard about Black Star Pastry's Strawberry Watermelon Cake while reading an old New York Times article about this Australian patisserie, which declared this signature cake and most-requested cake as "The World's Most Instagrammed Cake." So, I made Black Star Pastry a destination during our pre-cruise stay in Sydney. We followed the directions posted on The Strand's directory to Black Star Pastry and ogled the artistically and attractively decorated cakes while zeroing in on the Strawberry Watermelon cake slices lined up next to the Raspberry Lychee and Mango Yuzu cake slices. Honestly, all of the cake slices looked lusciously delicious, but our taste buds were craving a refreshing slice of Strawberry Watermelon. We selected the cake slice, and the amicable countergirl neatly packaged it and asked if we needed eating utensils. Of course, we needed and wanted eating utensils as we dreamed about digging into the cake at their dining counter right away. My husband rushed me to finish taking photos, and he jabbed his fork into the tender yet juicy cake. Before I knew it, he unassembled the cake slice to reveal a fresh-cut slice of juicy, ripe, and sweet watermelon, light rose-scented cream, tender cake, and was topped with fragrant rose petals and fresh strawberries. He claimed it would be easier to eat because the cake slice was about 3" high and looked like it would've toppled when pierced from top to bottom. Yeah, it was HIS "thing" about eating this cake, I decided to take a bit of the top layer, then a small slice of the watermelon bottom layer together. It truly was refreshing, light, and not overly sugary. The lightness and flavors of this cake seemed like it might have been low-cal, but even if it wasn't, who cares when you're on vacation?!

    Came here to try the most instagrammed cake, the watermelon cake. I thought it was good. It wasn't…read moreoverly sweet and not dry. I would recommend to try a small slice. Lines aren't too bad and it goe by quick!
