For the most part, this summer has been about experimenting in the kitchen and trying out new food places. Food never fails to give me that satisfaction. For today, my good friend Chass and I tried out this new pastry shop at ATC. I've been hearing a lot of people raving about it and I must say, what really caught my interest was the cutesy interior of the shop which, you all will find out upon scrolling down on this post.
We met up past lunch time this afternoon despite the heavy downpour. We both needed comforting and what better way to console each other's ails than through cupcakes? :) It took us around 30mins to find the place because a.) all I know is it's on the 2nd floor; b.) the guard we asked directions from misled us; and c.) it's been awhile since I last went to ATC so I no longer know how to maneuver through it (esp. now that Metro point mall also recently opened there). Lesson learned? When visiting a new place, never forget to look it up. Knowing how to specifically go there won't hurt. tsk tsk... Although being lost at a not-so-big mall seems stupid, through all the reasons provided and much more, I beg to differ. Haha So anyway, we found the place, and whoala! Vanilla Cupcake Bakery was everything I expected it to be and waaay more. ❤
I must say, the owner must have such an amazing taste when it comes to furniture. The interiors were really amazing. I'm sure all young girls and young-girls-at-heart out there once dreamt of a room with such a splash of pastel colors. It was really refreshing and relaxing. Now I know what it must have felt like to sit and have tea in a little princess' room. It really gave a vibe like that. 😊
Look, even its ceiling gives off a super girly vibe.❤

Every inch of the little shop was well thought of that one will find little cute trinkets like these in almost every corner. Cute, no? 😊
See, even their menu is soooo cute. I must say though, this has been the biggest menu I've gotten hold of. Hahaha
Here's another interesting piece. Can you catch a glimpse of the cute refrigerator? No? It's the pink one. Yep, pink fridge. What girl wouldn't want that? Heeeeee
I'd have to admit though, it was really difficult to choose from the assortment of cupcakes available. Everything just looks so delish!!! I tried picking out eccentric flavors but to no avail - almost everything is! Hahaha I was kind of really tempted to order out one of each. 😁
So in the end, Chass and I ended up with Blueberry Lemon, Vanilla Peach, and Luscious Salted Caramel on our girly plates. I just have to say though that it was really interesting to find out that the cutlery and chinaware they are serving their cupcakes with are really high-end. And by high-end, I meant European brand high-end. Yep, you heard that one right. It was no shocker therefore that one of the staff followed us outside when we decided to switch tables. She must've overheard the remark I made jokingly of how I'm real close to taking home everything in the store. Yep, everything's really that cute! 😊😁❤
And just wow, even the tiniest detail as in tea bags weren't left off un-cute (if that's even a word. Haha). Bawal ang pangit sa store na to. Who wouldn't be enticed with these colorful teas? Not to mention, it tastes amazing!!! One of my two favorite teas so far (the other one's from India). ❤ *insert whisper here* Oh and btw, I think y'all should know, these teas are from Paris. No wonder I felt so bongga in an instant. Haha😄
Read: It's okay to die of cuteness any minute now. I really fell in love with this teapot. Someday, mate, somedaaaaay!!! ❤
Ahhhh... What a better way to drown everything from problems to worries to as simple as rain than with a soothing cup of tea? It really went perfectly well with the sweet pastries we had for the afternoon.
Chass and the lovely corner table. It was definitely one of my favorite things on the shop.
My outfit's color ensemble matched the whole of the cuteness surrounding me. Notice though how interesting their chairs are. This is the gazebo area already, btw. It had a garden vibe to it complete with artificial grass, archways, fake grass and fences. It was totally adorable.
All in all, it has been such a wonderful day with this strong, beautiful and amazing woman. Nothing can be more perfect than an afternoon spent with a well-trusted confidante. Until next time, love! Here's to more years of dates and cupcakes to be shared! ❤❤❤
