If you’re a sweet-tooth and desserts are your thing, then you definitely need to appease your taste buds in Frostings. With twenty-five different cupcake flavors to choose from, all brought in FRESH from Bulacan everyday, it is indeed a haven for dessert lovers. It also has a cupcake of the month, with the Sans Rival as the September highlight for cupcake number 25. My fiancee and I were doing our wedding registry in Rustan’s and chanced upon the kids section on the 3rd floor and could not take our eyes off this small nook. Who could with a dessert display with cupcakes that look like this?

Their commitment is that their cupcakes are labors of love, baked fresh daily using only the finest ingredients from the freshest milk to the purest Belgian chocolate, and the freshest seasonal fruits. That I could not disagree with as every single cupcake I saw looked amazingly delicious. They also separated their cupcakes by category, with the cheapest ones at 35 pesos called Regular, made with boiled icing. Their Premium cupcakes are at 50 pesos made with butter-cream icing, Fruit at 60 pesos, and Extra Premium (those with liqueur) priced at 70 pesos. A rather delectable treat at a very good price for the quality it is made from.

I had wanted to try the Ube Macapuno fruit cupcake, but when I went back for it, there were none left! My fiancee wanted to try the Sans Rival flavor of the month cupcake, but it was also gone when we came back! That’s probably the only downside as there are going to be 8 cupcakes each displayed, and it didn’t look like they could re-fill when one flavor is finished. So my Ube Macapuno craving will have to wait until my next visit. What we did try out was the Mango Caramel and it tasted divine. There is nothing like food that looks absolutely delicious but then taste even better than you imagined it to be. So I can barely wait to get a taste of the actual ones that I wanted to try out. That should be an even better experience.

So for those of you who are sold with the pictures you see above, hehe, they have three current branches as they moved from The Block in Quezon City before. The have one in the 3rd floor in Robinsons Galleria, another in the 3rd floor in Shangri-la Rustans, and the last branch also in the 3rd floor of Rustans Makati. There’s something about 3’s here that seems peculiar, hehe. They can also be contacted at 983-3880 and 983-7064, and they even do special order cupcakes designed for particular occassions. Definitely a MUST for everyone who likes a good, sorry, an awesome dessert, and I can guarantee that you won’t be disappointed
