Primrose Bakery Review

Primrose bakery is a cute little cafe bakery situated in West London foodie haven of Covent Garden. A second bakery is located in Camden. It's snug, bright and girly, with cute cupcakes on display. I wanted to try the more unusual flavours so I chose cinnamon, green tea and also a salted caramel and a carrot cupcake.

I had hoped

The Hummingbird Bakery Review - City Food Blog

I've been to all three branches of Hummingbird Bakery in London. All three are clean, enticing and stocked with the most delicious variety of cakes.

However my favourite branch has to be Hummingbird Bakery in Spitalfields London. The fact that it's across the road from Pizza Union is one major reason. I also like that this store has some outdoor seating. Hummingbird bakery in London Spitalfields isn't on a main road, or super busy London street.

Anyway I know you're interested in the cakes and treats, not necessarily the Hummingbird bakery shop itself. So I'll get on with it!

Ms Cupcake Review - London Food Blog

Ms Cupcake is a vegan cake shop located in Brixton, South West London. 

All products sold by Ms.Cupcake are vegan. This means there are no dairy or animal products used in any of their delicious looking treats.

Approaching her humble little store, I realised I had chosen the worst time of year to visit. Ms Cupcake was decked out for Halloween - such a Godless festivity!

Their oreo cupcakes had transformed themselves into bats, with beady little eyes and oreo biscuits for wings.

Lola's Cupcakes Review

The first time I experienced Lola's cupcakes was when I tied the knot. I ordered some red velvet cupcakes from Lola's. I didn't do a cake tasting. I just wanted reasonably priced red velvet cupcakes and Lola's cupcakes looked the part. It was such a hectic day for me - as you can probably imagine, and the taste of my wedding cakes didn't feature much in my mind.

Now that I run city food blog, I aim to provide fellow food blog readers with honest, in depth food reviews and advice on what to eat. That means paying more attention to what I'm shoveling into my mouth! So here is my honest Lola's cupcakes review.

Melba At The Savoy Review With Photos Of My Purchases

Not satisfied with yesterday's sweet treats I decided to check out Melba At The Savoy. I arrived at Melba just after 11am. A bit later than I'd initially planned. After going toe to toe with dull wet weather outside I was met with a frosty reception inside. Shelves were only just being stocked and the service I received was poor. One server looked over at me and it seemed she had dropped her smile on the floor!

Melba A The Savoy Eclair Boxes

Melba is small with three stools near a window - suitable for a quick stop. Melba At The Savoy is sleek and typically Parisian in style, with lots of black.

I scoped four eclairs at £2.95 each. A mango flavour eclair, salted caramel eclair, meringue eclair, and dark chocolate eclair with coconut. I had to literally ask both servers for information on the items and I received rushed through responses. I could say more about the service - or lack of, but I'll leave it at that. After all, things began to look up
