Hi I too have been disappointed with the Cupcake Bakery. I bought some for a special occasion and they were so bad I took them back the next day!! I was so disgusted.

I have found another place through its at Pyrmont called Crewz Cafe, its on Harris St. They make there own and they are they are great!! Really moist, toppings are great and the actual cake tastes fantastic too. Usually i get to the base and only eat half but these ones are worth eating.

We went to the Pyrmont Art festival and they were handing samples out, thats how I found them. They should advertise, they would do so well.

Hi Lisa - Ooh are you talking about The Cupcake Bakery? I saw red velvet at their QVB branch but have yet to try it!

Hi tummyrumble - yeah, don't you wish they would impart the flavours into the cakes themselves rather than just the icing?

Hi Shez - oh I've yet to try lemon meringue!

Hi Belle - my thoughts exactly. Now if we could get our tasty homemade ones to look like the pretty store ones then we have ourselves the perfect cupcake!

Hi Stephcookie - haha they're popping up everywhere aren't they?

Hi FFichiban - oh I didn't know that :) Boo indeed!

Hi Lorraine - yeah sometimes it's a little too easy to get lazy and buy instant instead of making it. Chemical icing? Travesty!

Hi Jo - gorgeous indeed. Taste? Not so much.

Hi Yas - hehe yeah I can't help but be lured by a pretty cupcake myself. Too bad they don't taste as good as they look!

Hi Simon - The Biscuit Tree only sells cupcakes at Epping Markets I believe. You'll have to confirm with Suze :)

Fancy cupcake thing? Hehe maybe it's a gender thing!

Hi Sarah - thx for the tip. Will keep an eye out for it!

Hi Alannah - thanks for the recommendation. It's on my list :)

I recommend Crewz Cafe in Pyrmont. They have just introduced cupcakes and they are amazing and will keep you coming back for more. They are $3 which I think is a bargain. I loved their choc fudge, banana banoffi, lemon meringue and cherry ripe. Their cakes are very moist YUM! It's 139 Harris Street Pyrmont near Union Square.

I recommend Sparkle Cupcakery on foveuax (near crown). Best cupcakes in sydney i think, not as pretty, but moist and delicious!

I never got the whole fancy cupcake thing and judging from your review, I won't be getting these ones either.

Didn't realise Biscuit Tree did cupcakes.

Woo cupcakes on pitt!
I think they used to be better before. It was disappointingly dry the last time I bought some :( But I go "Wooo pretty cupcakes!" every time I pass by!

Wow, these cupcakes look gorgeous and I am sure they were equally yummy!

Wow, $2 is a steal. I agree why buy it if you can make it but for $2 it makes the decision to buy easier. I tried them when they had the full cupcake and I wasn't particularly taken with the icing which tasted strangely chemically!

Cupcakes on Pitt used to be so much better when they were a decent size but now they are tiny but still charging the same price :( booo

2009-05-04T14:56:00.000+10:00

I had the exact same reaction to the passionfruit cupcakes that you had...it didn't taste of anything really! But I do like their strawberry cupcakes. They also seem to be opening up a store in Chatswood soon too!

I thought cupcakes were on the wane as well, but Cupcake Bakery still seems popular. Shame they always look better than they taste!

2009-05-04T11:00:00.000+10:00

oh yes. i'm not a big cupcake place f an but the lemon meringue from cupcakes on pitt is rather the standout. we were always battling for it at birthday times...

that's interesting because I've always found cupcakes on pitt to be much better in taste than all the others. Friday night I noticed a new one on York st, and got a sundae, peanut butter, black forest and lemon meringue. The peanut butter looked much nicer than yours as the peanuts were all caramelised with toffee..but yes the cake was plain. And the black forest was plain chocolate with cherry on top. Lemon Meringue my face though...

The cupcakes are pretty but I too found them underwhelming with the feeling I could do much better baking up a batch myself. If you do have a cupcake craving while in the city I quite like the new-ish place at the Ivy building on George St. They do a nice red velvet which is really hard to find in Sydney!
