Received
new
cupcakes
tonight,
which
perhaps
suggests
my
original
order
wasn't
up
to
usual
standards
(?)
Cupcakes
arrived
with
what
appear
to
be
the
toppings
I
expected.
Adding
second
pic
as
illustration.
A
little
late
for
the
intended
event,
but
have
to
appreciate
the
extra
effort
on
their
part.
I
assume
my
initial
experience
was
an
outlier
and
will
definitely
give
them
another
go.
Thank
you
cupcake
paradise
for
the
gesture
-
it
was
unexpected,
but
it
is
appreciated!

Have
to
say
I'm
a
little
underwhelmed
by
the
cupcakes
I
ordered.
They
appeared
nothing
like
the
pics
on
the
website,
and
couldn't
really
discern
the
flavours
I
had
ordered.
I
ordered
2
of
each
of
the
following
vegan
cupcakes:
Black
Forest
Salted
Caramel
Chocolate
Lover
Peanut
Butter
Jam
Lemon
Newtella
Every
cupcake
starts
as
a
plain
chocolate
or
vanilla
cupcake
--
which
were
moist
and
quite
nice
on
their
own.
The
flavours
were
left
to
the
icing,
and
with
no
sign
of
hazelnuts,
salt,
caramel,
jam
or
peanuts,
we
honestly
could
not
tell
which
flavors
were
which.
There
was
a
chocolate(?)
drizzle
on
a
few,
but
that's
about
it.
Only
the
chocolate
lover,
lemon
and
black
forest
were
discernable
from
appearance.
The
rest
were
all
just
"chocolate
adjacent
with
maybe
a
hint
of
nut".
Did
I
mention
there
was
zero
hint
of
jam
alluded
to
in
the
site
pics?
Maybe
it's
the
speckled
chocolate
one?
Or
was
that
the
salted
caramel?
8
of
us
putting
our
heads
together
couldn't
figure
it
out.
So
honestly,
for
the
price,
it's
hard
to
justify
--
especially
considering
you're
getting
pretty
plain
cupcakes
and
not
the
pleasant
looking
ones
pictured
on
the
site.
