Cupcakes have a special place in my tummy. And it’s always a wonderful time when I see and eat a cupcake. Last week, big sister invited me for a sweet afternoon merienda at J.Cuppacakes located at SM Jazz, Makati.
Love love love the ambiance in this store. It has a Victorian and dainty feel, perfect hangout place for girly girls out there. It’s a nice venue for birthdays and baptismal parties too.
I chose Birthday cupcake while big sister ordered her favorite Brazo de Mercedes Cheesecake. I instantly fell in love with the Birthday Cupcake. I don’t know the correct term but it’s like a sticky boiled icing that is usually used for children’s birthday cake. The floral design on it gave me so much joy in my heart.
Oh I love to take this Birthday Cake home. Maybe, on my birthday?
Aside from cupcakes, J.Cuppacakes also offers coffee, tea, shakes and frappes.
They have delicious pastas too!
The mother of the owner, who is in charge of operations, arrived when we were about to finish our meal. She, then, offered us a free slice of cheesecake and La Passione wine – new additions to their menu. It’s a sweet red wine which is imported in Italy. For a minute, we became food critics for J.Cuppacakes.
Who knew wines paired up pretty well with cupcakes?
She said that French and Italians love their cupcakes paired with wine and she wants to start that hype here in the Philippines too. It’s one of the best introduction to French culture you are likely to find anywhere.
My tummy is filled with so much joy and sweetness. I’d love to try their other cupcakes next time!
