Gateaux Rose - My Thanksgiving sweet potato/whipped cream iced cupcakes! Made using the online recipe.

Gateaux Rose, I want to give you 5 stars yo, you're everything I like in a consumable product:…read morelocal, up and coming, and you make cupcakes! So, here's the deal with Gateaux Rose as far as I can gather: They are a new bakery in Halifax currently operating without a shop front HOWEVER they have a kick ass website where you can see all sorts of details pertaining to their own unique cake menu (past work), pricing and my favorite: recipes! Having stumbled upon the Gateaux Rose website a couple days ago (and with a trip to see the extended familia in my very close future) I decided to venture a go at one of their recipes, and more specifically: Thanksgiving browned butter sweet potato cupcakes with whipped cream cloud frosting. Bitting off more than I can chew you say? You might be right... Gateaux Rose, I could have really used a 'yield' amount. ie- this recipe will make so many friggin cupcakes that you will run out of little 'cake tins to cook them in and will be flogging cupcakes at random strangers in the hopes of keeping your weight to within 10 lbs of whatever you weighed p.c.e. (pre-cupcake endeavor) Really... i'm headed to see family and this is still an obscene number of cupcakes to have around even dispersed amongst a group. Come to think of it, there's one more detail that would have been really relevant: a bake temperature and bake time? Assume this detail didn't quite make it onto the website but that's ok becccaauuuseee... THESE CUPCAKES ARE AMAZING!!! My icing didn't turn out as pretty as yours G.R. folk but I appreciated your little tips about how to tell when my sugar was done cookin' and such: 'it'll look like a gummy ball at the bottom of a cup of water' was surprisingly accurate. Gateaux Rose does all sorts of speciality orders whether it be a birthday, baby shower or any other celebration this is definitely the new spot in town to try out! The thing I liked a lot about the orders pictured on the website was that they were all unique and individual and seemed to have been created with a specific person in mind. ie- no stock 'this is how we do a wedding cake' sorta stuff. The folks at G.R. can also be found some Saturday's (check their website) at the Brewery Market! I really love your online recipes too G.R. but a simplified version of some things would be useful for those of us that don't tend to have: cream of tartar and honeyed dates hanging around. Great cupcakes! Can't wait to try a market morsel of your own baking!

Gateaux Rose makes the best cupcakes in Halifax. They're made with imagination and a lot of love…read more Try walking by their Brewery Market stall and turning down one their perfect, pretty desserts. It's near impossible. They made me a batch of cupcakes that really stole the show at my family's Christmas dinner. Turkey? Great. Veggies? Tasty. But then I produced a tray of cupcakes FILLED WITH SALTED CARAMEL and topped with a citrus mousse. Holy Cats! Gateaux Rose is also different because the ladies who make the goodies are NSCAD grads. Their cupcakes look as good as they taste, with intricate designs and wee marzipan accessories. Basically, I'm in love with these cupcakes and want to marry them and have a life-long, fulfilling relationship. We'd be so happy together!

It didn't take me long to decide what I wanted bc I saw the word s'mores so it's no contest for me after that lol! I got the Gimme S'mores fog cup which has their signature creamy soft serve mixed with graham crackers and chocolate sauce, and topped with toasted marshmallow merengue and their giant cloud of fog cotton candy!! If I was a kid, I'm sure I would've eaten the entire thing haha!! It was delicious but insanely sweet as you can imagine. I could only manage a couple of nibbles on the cotton candy - it had a great flavor but is just straight sugar so I couldn't handle more lol. But the rest went down too easy and was a fun choice. My hubby wasn't feeling as childish as me and just went with a little scoop of his go-to mint chocolate chip topped with chocolate sauce - excellent flavor and texture in this one as well and the small scoop was just right. If you're not feeling the ice cream, they also offer cookies and donuts - ample choices of flavors and they looked fabulous as well. The shop is sleek and clean with benches inside and some whimsical patio seating outside to take advantage of their harbor views. Prices are reasonable given the quality and portions. Staff were very friendly. Location is excellent - right along Halifax's popular Harborwalk. Very easy to get to as a pedestrian and tourist but I imagine driving here would be a nightmare bc parking is difficult in Halifax imo and there's so much construction going on at the moment.
