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.
