About cupcake shops
Cupcakes had their big British moment in the late 2000s, when pastel-painted shops with towering buttercream swirls opened on high streets across the country. The craze has calmed, but the cupcake has settled in as a staple of birthday parties, baby showers, office celebrations and weddings. Specialist cupcake shops still do it best, with flavours rotated through the week and decoration ranging from simple piping to hand-sculpted sugar figures.
What to order
- Vanilla with vanilla buttercream – The plain test of a cupcake shop – sponge should be moist and light.

- Salted caramel – Caramel-filled sponge and a salty-sweet buttercream swirl.
