After hearing so much about Twelve Cupcakes, I was finally here last Friday to buy them! For the benefit of those who don’t know, Twelve Cupcakes was founded by former DJ Daniel Ong and former Mediacorp actress Jaime Teo.

Why twelve? Because Daniel used to be a bowler and 12 strikes make a perfect game. And also there are twelve holes in a baking tray! Although they are opened only for a few months, their cupcakes are selling like hot cakes with the first few days sold out by noon time! Jaime has created up to 30 flavours and everyday, there will be 12 flavours on display, two of which are Daily’s Specials.

For the coffee lovers, indulge in Expresso cupcake where moist coffee cupcake comes with Expresso infused buttercream.

The classic Red Velvet was so lovely with its swirls of vanilla cream cheese frosting. Yes the cupcake is very moist, not too light nor dense. Frosting used is adequate without being too sweet. But somehow it is so classic that there is no wow factor. You’ll be shocked, I actually like the Oreo Chocolate more!

I declare that I am not a chocolate fan. And I never like chocolate. If there are choices to choose from, anything with chocolate will never be my first choice. But, my kind boss actually offered my Oreo Chocolate Cupcakes from here many weeks back and it was lovely that I decided to buy it again. On the first bite, the oreo and chocolate flavours explode in your mouth in a pleasant mix. They have the right amount of sweet and saltiness, and the chcolate cream on top are not too overwhelming.

On the moist cupcake, is flavoured with lychee and a slight tint of alchohol. The Lychee Martini is very lovel with the lychee providing the extra crunchiness and refreshing aftertaste. The cupcakes cost $3 each, $17 for half a dozen and $33 for a dozen. Daily Specials cost $3.50 each.
Now I am tempted to buy an oven and make my own cupcakes!
