Ever since I opened a small home baking business, I've always taken the opportunity to patronize other bakeries and dessert stops as part of "research and development" (I know: excuses, excuses!). Baby Cakes, hidden in the basement of Evia Lifestyle Center, and seemingly out of place beside a hardware, a pet shop, a salon, ATMs, and the restrooms.
But it can't be denied that it's a pretty little store. True to its name, it displays the daintiest of cupcakes, cakes, cookies, and other desserts. My sister and I sampled the classic Red Velvet Cupcake, and it did not disappoint. I hate crumbly (as opposed to moist) cupcakes, and this one was moist, with a balanced frosting to cake ratio. It was not too sweet, too!
The next time you find yourself at Evia and you want a little something to satisfy your sweet tooth or to bring home to your loved ones, look for this tiny sweet shop and discover its treasures. read more
