They have a stall on Coppinger Row on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from morning time til 4pm each week. They have also been known to appear at the occasional other food fare from time to time also! They always have their standard selection of cupcakes, and then a few "specials". The specials are generally quite experimental flavours like Red Wine & Chocolate, or Coconut, Mango and Chilli. So good! The cakes are a very reasonable two euro each and you can get a loyalty card which means you get a freebie once you've had a baker's dozen.

What an amazing treat to find!…read more I actually don't really like cupcakes, I've always found them dry and boring and mostly about the pretty icing. However due to Graham's good will (and amazing marketing) with his YES equality buns, I couldn't resist at least paying a visit to his cute little stall on Coppinger Row. Guys, I've been eating the wrong damn cupcakes. These are AMAZING! Soft and *shudder* moist, with delicious icing that's just the right consistency and ratio to cake. I immediately went for the adorable Pride rainbow bun, and then lovely Graham went about telling me the other flavours. I was very close to buying the slice of rainbow cake but instead went for the WooWoo (complete with shot of vodka) and Pink Lemonade (with a butt on it, for whatever reason), along with the vanilla Pride cake. The lemonade was probably my favourite, but genuinely they were all so delicious, and really good value! I'm going to be back every week from now on. Fantastic stuff. Graham, open a shop!!

The ordering process must've been simple or else my gifters wouldn't have bothered with it. They taste amazing. Each flavor is subtle and perfectly nuanced without being overpowering. I've had mint cupcakes that taste like toothpaste. Not the case here. They are perfect with a cup of tea or a cup of coffee. I'm extra appreciative of the efforts out forth to keep open and continue delivery during the COVID pandemic and quarantine. So glad there's a kiosk closer to city center so I can get another one in the future, when life is a bit more normal.

I got over my disappointment when I inspected the goods. Beautifully bright cupcakes sat on the top of the counter in all kinds of delicious flavours. The treats made me think that I was at a magical tea party in some child's fantasy. I had a taste of the vanilla cupcake and it was gorgeous. Very sweet but name me one cupcake that isn't! Cupcakes would be a delightful present for a friend's birthday. Or again, they would be nice surprise at a dinner party. Any special occasion merits one of these round cakes. Buy an assorted box of 4 for 9.50 Euro.

Staff at the stall were lovely-really friendly and efficient. There was an array of beautifully decorated cupcakes with flavours including vanilla, chocolate, lemon with lemon curd filling, carrot and pineapple, red velvet, banana. After much deliberation I settled on the classics-vanilla and chocolate. I had a choice of pink or purple for my vanilla cupcake. I should not be given difficult choices like this! It took a full minute of agonising before I decided on purple because it would match my top. And they say women aren't logical?!? Prices are a reasonable/average €2.50 per large cupcake. The cupcakes themselves look beautiful. They're just like in the photos here-really cute and decorated with little flowers. Very girlie! The chocolate was very very good-a light sponge cake (not very chocolately though) with a very good buttercream frosting. The vanilla was a disappointment. It had a really strange taste...kind of like times I've accidentally thrown too much vanilla into mixtures and they ended up bitter and with a slight aftertaste. Maybe it was just this particular batch? I'll have to try more....just to check. The below average vanilla nets them a 4 star rating. Potential for 5 star if my next ones are better :-)

I got a selection of 4 cupcakes (lemon, chocolate, strawberry and passionfruit) that were all delish!! I got their card and was so impressed I placed an order for a party I was throwing. My guests were very impressed and they were the talk of the evening. It was a themed party and they were able to match my colours perfectly. They supplied the tiered stand and all. They both looked and tasted fab. Almost too pretty to eat! YUM!

Giovanni makes a lot of these cupcakes himself!…read more He's the lovely 30 something Italian guy that mans the cupcake shop most days. Ladies eat your hearts out! (That's actually kind of a weird phrase now that I've typed it) He serves you with a smile and a wave and will talk to you all day about his passions which are many and close between: Confectionary Art, Poetry, Juventus and Love Making. Some of his proudest designs include minions from the Despicable Me movies (which I still haven't seen and probably won't. I know people say they're good but the people who say that are usually really boring or annoying) and Oscar the Grouch which he has encased in a glass box and promises never to sell no matter what the price. Great cupcakes and a fun little seating area where you get a great view of Giovanni's buns (if you know what I mean)

If you go to Dublin, make a quick stop at the Ilac Centre to taste them!

I went here for breakfast and ordered their Irish Porridge with seasonal fruit, cream and toasted almonds along with a blueberry scone (can't visit a tart shop and not order a dessert). The porridge was huge. There was no way that I needed both the porridge and the scone but when in Dublin... It was creamy and had a great thick texture. The scone was light and fluffy and paired well with the butter and jam they give you. My only complaint was that I would have liked a larger cup of jam for my scone but only because it was so good! I would definitely go back and I highly recommend this place.

Staff were very friendly and helpful and I was talked through the basics of the business, which are that it's Irish-owned, has several stores throughout the land, and makes all of its own extensive range of icings. I can vouch that the ready to roll one is really easy to use and goes on beautifully - my only issue is that I was advised to get two and a half times the quantity I needed, having asked for enough for a medium Christmas cake. So I have a rather large surplus of sweet white stuff and foresee a year of much cookie and cake decorating for the kids - up to the point I get tired of it and chuck it out no doubt. A word to the wise - the prices here are looking very good indeed, compared to Stock which is on the expensive side. I bought the exact same cookie presentation box here that I bought in Stock a day previously, it was 2.50 in Stock, and 1.85 here. The assistant I spoke to advised that keen pricing is part of the company ethos - and given how expensive confectionery goods can be, you can't argue with that. She also told me they are moving to a bigger premises further along the north quay in the new year - perhaps nearer the Italian Quarter. I'll definitely be making this by first stop for baking stuff in the future.
