Iron Cupcake


And so I went to check out what this cupcake competition is about after being told by a friend while I was selling cupcakes at BrickLane. The theme this round was 'booze' and you only needed to pay 5 to get in with free tea and not forgetting tasting all the cupcake entries of course. A great value for dinner, heh. And after having them, we judge on which ones were the top 3.

I must say, the hardest bit was judging and tasting ALL the cupcakes! I really loved 6 of them and have to keep thinking bout judging them according to theme rather than taste. Haha. Met a couple of ladies who were from Japan and China and so I joined them so that I don't have to eat all the cupcakes myself. We teamed up to get all the cupcakes.

Prizes, and there was a proper camera man too

Had to leave before the prizes was given out but I was happy to meet the organiser in person and she told me next month's theme is spice. First thing on my mind is 'chai'. So yeah, I am inspired to participate the next competition :)

I walked all the way home just to get rid of all the sugar I ate and have been doing that more and more often lately before the weather gets darker by the day. It feels wonderful to enjoy the cooler breeze and familiarise the city more. And everywhere I go, I tend to see or spot nice restaurants with great deals and never knew how close they were!
