Love Bakes ♥

-

So not so long ago I was lucky enough to win a dozen cupcakes from the lovely Love Bakes! Based in Bedfordshire, this company is ran by a very lovely lady called Joelle who experiments with the most unique flavours to add to her cupcake mix! Yesterday morning I received a sweet little (or not so little!) package filled with beautiful and far too delicious Love Bakes goodies to tentalise my tastebuds! Want a peak? Here's my yummy delights:

Mmm, cupcakes for breakfast- does it get any better than that?? I have to say, the cupcakes were just as delectable as they were pretty, if not moreso! I'm usually not one for icing but there was something magical about the ones that topped these bakes: soft, creamy & whippy but oh-so-light at the same time, these were definitely the icing on the cake! What's more, it tasted like an intense blend of spicy but sweet flavours- truly mouth-watering stuff!!

Teamed with the moist, soft, luscious sponge, the icing made for an amazing treat! Packed in my big pink box were six spicy mango flavour cupcakes and six chai (Indian tea) flavour cupcakes. The chai-flavoured cupcakes tasted a bit like carrot cake with a hint of subtle spice- so like normal carrot cake but with a twist and since carrot cake is one of my favourite cakes ever, this yummy treat really made my day ♥

The spicy mango-flavoured cupcakes were equally as flavourful. What I particularly loved about this cupcake was the fact that once you've worked your way to the bottom, you'd find some fruity mango jelly- how delightful!

Asides from the fact that the cupcakes were absolutely heavenly, scrumptious, rich in taste, and every other word that sums up delicious (and beyond!), Miss Joelle Eyeson definitely deserves credit for the effort she went in decorating these tasty treasures- I mean, how beautiful can a small cupcake get?! So much so that I almost didn't want to bite into any of them for fear of ruining the gorgeous designs ♥ As you can see,half a dozen were topped with lovely roses that were sprinkled with a dose of glitter- wow!

But bite I did and my my am I already craving some more! Before you say it or even think it- no I didn't finish a whole dozen cupcakes in a day ;P My Dad and brother had their share too! Though it has to be said that sharing these beauties wasn't easy hehe

If you're interested in sending a loved one a sweet package or if you're just after some delicious treats for yourself then do visit their Facebook page for details of how to order and to check out some of Joelle's work! Not only does she bake yummy cupcakes (how does pistachio and white chocolate topped with vanilla bean buttercream sound to you??), but she also creates beautiful cakes and cute cake pops! Here are a few pics to tease your tastebuds:
