Bear with me as my entries are mostly long overdue... *shy grin* I just couldn't let this one passed away.
Joh and I discovered this place by serendipity, while on our way to meet Joy. Without having second thoughts (as both of us have sweet tooth), we happily dashed inside this eye-catching haven ---- Vanilla Cupcake Bakery.
Allow me to give my verdict:
PLACE (3rd flr, Glorietta 4,Makati Branch) : 5/5 stars!
The place is so awesome! I was dreamy for some time; it gave me a very distinct feeling like I've just entered a wonderland. The interior is somewhat Victorian-inspired and every surface were ornately decorated like that of a playhouse. ( They got authentic Daphne chairs too... hmmm, expensive, isn't it?)

CAKE: Texture: 3/5 stars. A little bit light as it tends to fall apart so easily when you take a bite or make a slice. Taste: 3/5 stars. Taste was just ok; nothing really very special.
FROSTING: 4/5 stars. It brings out the best in the cupcakes we had; texture and sweetness just compliment each other. Taste was heavenly however, they could improve more in decorating the top.

Though we quite lose track of time as we're busy for a "selfie" pose, we never forget of our order. So, could you bring them in the table, pretty please??? Dismay. Dismay. We've waited for almost 20 minutes for our cupcakes ( coffee haven't served yet) which were just sitting contentedly on the rack.
Staff are ok though, and they never seemed ashamed of sweeping the floor every time customers leave. :)
PRICE: 3/5 stars.
Quite expensive. Cupcakes range from 60php- 90php per piece. For menu and prices, you could check it out at munchpunch website.
EXPERIENCE: 5/5 stars.
If you really really just want to relax while enjoying sweet goodies over brewed coffee or a tea, this place is for you. Well, just try it to experience the magic in this place... :)
OVER-ALL VERDICT: 3/5 stars! Will definitely visit this place again! (BIT OF ADVICE: If you're a kuripot like me, forget the price and just enjoy the place. *winks* )
(Vanilla Cupcake Bakery has branches in Glorietta 4, Trinoma and Alabang Town Center.)
