Delighful, delicous, delovely...yes, this cupcake'n'coffee store looks positively edible…read more From its pink and white candy-striped walls, to the chocolate brown banquettes (complete with cushions and teddy bears); to the divine concoctions on display at the counter, it's a sweet tooth's paradise. I couldn't decide between a Miss Piggy cupcake, or the one with the strawberry cheescake icing (the latter ended up winning the coin toss), so I took it, along with my beautifully creamy cappacino, to devour on the small patio outside. And the cake? Well this is where I differ to most other people so far. I thought it was Ok...but I'm going to go off piste here and say that it was most definitely not the best I've eaten. (I've had better in...gasp...Shingle Inn). I was definitely more taken with the cuteness of the cafe than the cake itself. It should have been fluffier, the icing should have been tastier... Maybe I should have gone with the Miss Piggy after all???

As soon as I saw a shop called 'the Cupcake Parlour', I knew it was somewhere I wanted to visit. I…read morearrived at the gorgeous little shop after walking as fast as my legs could carry me. The pink and white theme only adds to the cute factor, along with making it quite impossible for straight men to frequent this place. Inside is just as adorable, with a cosy little booth to one side and a display cabinet full of various cupcake flavours. There are many flavours to choose from; more traditional ones like chocolate and some fancier varieties such as marble, each of which has a chocolate seashell perched on the carefully iced top. I absolutely love seashells but when it comes to cupcakes I believe it's the original and the best, so I chose a vanilla flavoured one. I have to say I was disappointed. The base was delicious and exactly what I would expect of a cupcake, even if it was a little heavy, but the icing was not. The main reason I love cupcakes is because of the amazingly creamy, buttery icing. The icing here is harder and can absolutely not be described as creamy. It's still a nice place and the cupcakes are presented so well that I'm sure I will be enticed into trying them again.

Bow & Daisy are high on my list of quality bakeries & cup cakes in Brisbane. Having purchased…read moretheir cakes several times now, they've been consistently fresh and flavoursome, light and fluffy, and offering many combinations of flavours. They are friendly and helpful and it's always a delight to purchase from them. I highly recommend buying from them, although I'm not aware of them having a store, they are always available from markets around town or ordering, and if you're lucky, keep an eye out, you might catch them in town at the One Eleven building on Eagle Street on a weekday selling their goodies :) Memorable cupcakes we've sampled are the cafe latte - injected with coffee and topped with a choc covered coffee bean, and the bannoffee - a banana caramel and cream cupcake with fresh bananas!

There are a wide range of tasty and beautiful cupcakes to take away or eat in with a coffee and have a chat with friends. My favourite is the gluten free red velvet and you would never know that it is gluten free. Never fear they also have full gluten cupcakes if that is what you prefer. Every time I have bought some of these they are a talking point at the get together. They are a good size so perhaps get two different one's and split them with your friend or date and you will get to try more. Simply Delicious.

At the end of the counter at Krusty Krab Seafood in Mcdowall, there is an adorable display case…read morefull of delicately decorated cupcakes, the owner of Krusty told me the brand of cakes is called 'Cake It Up.' I was drawn to these Cupcakes like a moth to a light, they are eye catching. We tasted one that had a peanut butter chocolate theme to it, the fondant was great and in the centre of the very well baked sponge cupcake, there was a gooey peanut butter chocolate centre! Oh wow! We thought this gooey surprise tasted like a 'Reeces Peeces' piece but we were pretty sure it was Australian Peanut Butter. So that means there is an incredible, genius baker lovingly assembling these gorgeous treats! It seems apparent that a lot of love and effort has been poured into these sweets, it certainly translates in the quality of the finished product. They would look glamorous mounted upon a three-tier rack for a special occasion or in a sweet box as a surprise for a loved one. I'm a little smitten with Cake It Up right now, especially knowing they are made by a local and sold in a local small business, I mean that's just wonderful! I urge you, give them a try- I promise you, you will not be disappointed..

There were actual steak pieces in the pie! I wish this place wasn't so far away!

I was a bridesmaid recently and after a five am wake-up for hair and make up, a long walk down the…read moreaisle, a few sneaky tears as my two friends got hitched, and a lot of toasting and dancing I was hanging out for cake. Okay, let's face it, I'd been hanging out for cake since the night before when as the bride got ready for bed and contemplated her future of wedded bliss I grilled her about the cake. 'What cake are you having? Oh, cupcakes, yum! What kind? Vanilla cake or chocolate? Vanilla, awesome! What colour is the icing going to be?' etc. etc. etc. Yes, the poor thing, I know, but I just love cake. When we walked into the reception venue my eyes were immediately drawn to the tower of pink and white cupcakes in the corner. I decided it would probably be poor form to stick my finger in the icing, but they looked so good that I had a hard time resisting (don't worry, I managed). When I finally got my greedy little paws on a cupcake (or three) later on I was very impressed. Definitely worth the wait. Fluffly, light cake. Smooth, sweet icing. Good cake to icing ratio. It definitely wasn't all the champagne talking, these were some excellent cupcakes. A few days later I asked her where she'd got them from because I wanted to give whoever baked these lovely cakes a good review on Yelp so here I am. Way to go, Cupcakes by K!

Cannot say enough great things about Sammy and her amazing cupcakes - have ordered now for our…read morewedding, a 30th, an 18th, a 50th, a 90th, 2 work functions and a baby shower - and every time, awesome. Each order has been customised - colours, designs, themes - based on my briefs, and nothing is ever too much trouble with the end result always looking and tasting amazing. It's also nice to swing by on the weekend to pick up a takeaway coffee and a sneaky 1 (or 5) mini cupcakes from the cabinet too, which come in lots of different flavours. The key thing with Sammy's baking is that the cakes are always vanilla or chocolate and the magic comes from the icing! Have never introduced Sammy's cakes to someone that had a bad thing to say. Am concepting fake parties & events now to have another excuse to do a new order...

They even have exotic flavours such as Lemon, Lime & Bitters, which, funnily enough, tastes exactly like a refreshing Lemon, Lime, Bitters and not some chemical concoction as I was expecting. My favourites would have to be: Red Velvet (duhhh, it's the best comparison cupcake too) Coconut Rough (I think that's what it was called) Plenty of seating, and a little hard to find if you don't know what you're looking for, but it's a hit with the locals. Catering is a large portion of their trade, and if you want something special whipped up for you, you'll need to book 2 weeks in advance to avoid disappointment. Quirky interiors too, with mushrooms, gnomes and colourful paintings everywhere!
