MY MORNING CUPCAKE NIRVANA...

Put some colour in your life by eating a cupcake.


Today I woke up in the morning and I had this crazy craving for a freshly baked cupcake. So I got dressed in no time (usually it takes me forever to get out of bed) and rushed to Glyfada where few weeks back, I had discovered a small cozy shop called “I Love Cupcakes”.

Few days ago I also bought a “Giant Cupcake” to a male friend. He thanked me at least ten times and he was telling me how an awesome and fresh idea it was. Indeed, for birthdays, events, weddings etc. I think it is original to have a giant, GIANT cupcake instead of getting a classic dull cake.  


Anyway, I parked quite in the middle of the street; there was no time to drive round and round to find a proper spot, I was too hungry. While walking, I could smell things, various chocolaty things which meant I was real close. Ow god the walk was taking forever.

Finally! I am in! There were all sorts of flavours and a very smiley young man behind the counter. While looking at all those freshly baked colourful cupcakes, the one that striked me the most was the pumpkin one. I had a taste of it and thought it was a heavenly glimpse of Halloween.

The cozy shop...

The shop is filled with positive energy without any particular effort put into the décor. The idea started when two Greek student girls, Elli and Amalia, got attracted to the cupcake places in London during their after classes shopping. 

After hours of observing, smelling and analyzing, I left the shop with a box of a dozen of cupcakes, ranging from vanilla to dark chocolate, looking like a rainbow you just want to bite into. I’ll eat one (maybe two) and I’ll give the rest to my colleagues; Truly, I just wanted to go out with lots of them and look at the sparkly frosting on top.

My very own cupcake half eaten

My day started very colourfully and I am ready to go to the office and enjoy my very own “Vanilla Nutella” cupcake along with my coffee.

And remember, one cupcake a day keeps the bad spirits away.. and the calories close.
