    If you're a fan of red velvet, they definitely mastered it, however if you don't love red velvet, there are many other tasty options! The 'black bottom' was delicious!!!!

    Crayz good-freshly made! Red velvet is the best! Also they give the rest of the cupcakes that left to homeless people, such a good place! Highly Recommended!

    Best bakery in town, simple as that. Personal favorites, the red velvet and the special edition cream & cookies cupcakes. I can't but, absolutely recommend a visit.

    The place for cupcakes in Notting Hill. Red Velvet and Salted Caramel are great but how come no true chocolate cupcake on the menu?

    If your mouth runs dry and your mind down, treat you with either the chocolate cheesecake or one of their strawberry cupcake.

    Get a slice of redvelvet cake, not the cupcake. The cake slice is better value for money and the cake to I icing proportion is perfect!

    Store manager says black bottom is the employee favourite, but red velvet is best seller. I'd gladly have both in one sitting if I could. :-)

    The rainbow cake was too good! The smell of the cases wafting in the air just makes it worth it. A definite pit stop.

    Went to this bakery last weekend for the first time. Really enjoyed it but couldn't finish my cupcake; the frosting was very overwhelming! Also, there's always a massive queue - worth the wait though!

    They are most known for their red velvet. I tried the caramel cupcake. It was dry and overly sweet

    Dunno what all the fuss is abt. Red velvet is just so-so. The frosting is too sweet fr my liking. Try something else other than red velvet.

    Over-rated. Tried the red velvet cake and the icing was way too sweet and the cake itself wasn't as moist as it should be. Disappointed!
