Vanilla Cupcake Bakery
September 26, 2013I first heard/saw Vanilla Cupcake Bakery from my friend Kath through her shared photos on IG and immediately fell in love with the store ambiance. Although we both live in Quezon City, she works at Makati and assumed that the store is only located within Makati area thus setting my mouth-watering mind away from the idea that I'll be able to visit the store the soonest possible. Since the universe love me that much, I found out that they also have a store in Trinoma. The happy kid inside me suddenly went to life and did a cartwheel for hearing the good news. Yes! I am that excited, LOL! Anyway, my sister-and-law along with Baby Sophia went to Trinoma to test it out for ourselves.
Photo above is one of the cutest things that will welcome you when you enter the store along with the counter and of course the different cupcakes displayed on their counter. Aside from that you'll also see their cutiepatotie waiting area which I wasn't able to photograph.
The store has this Cath Kidston inspired interior/theme which I think is really posh and girly. For the guys out there, have no worries because you'll still look good once you are inside the store.
Since we are in a rush to head home, we just opted for the cupcake instead. Yes, Vanilla Cupcake Bakery also offers other food such as starters, pasta, etc. Below is a photo of their menu which I got from their Official Facebook Page although I am pretty sure that prices are not legible.

Moving forward to my story, while waiting to have our orders taken. By the way, ordering can be done in two ways: a.) while you are already sitting on your designated tables and b.) over at the counter area. Anyway, Baby Sophia picked the Bubble Gum Cupcake, Gracyy went for the Carrot Cupcake, and I opted for the Classic S'mores Cupcake. Aside from the Cupcake we also ordered some drinks, Grace ordered Kiwi Passion Fruit Juice and I got Strawberry Iced Tea. I totally forgot the prices but cupcakes are sold below Php 100.00 while drinks are sold depending on the type of drink but the one I ordered is less than Php 100.00 too.
For the verdict before I photo spam you, haha!
- AMBIANCE: Posh/Girly and very laid back which is good if you want to catch up with what is going on with the lives of your friends.
- PRICE: Honestly, I find it reasonable although I only ate a piece of their cupcake but from what I saw the serving on their other food are very generous.
- TASTE: Their cupcakes are really delicious. Icings are not to sweet while the cupcake itself is really moist just the way I like.
OVER-ALL RATING: I will definitely be going back for more even if there is there is no WiFi, haha. Who cares about WiFi if you will be totally glued on the food at hand.

DeleteI think what strengthened Vanilla Cupcake Factory is pretty much, their store concept. I wasn't WOWd by their cupcakes, truth be told, but i just LOVE their interior that I'm willing to forgive their mediocre cupcakes hehe Kumiko Mae, Filipina Beauty Blogger

Deletenaw! I like the setup of the place! I hope we have one here. The cuppies looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteThe cupcakes are delicious :)
DeleteI love cup cakes and these are looking great.
ReplyDeleteI also love cupcakes :)
DeleteI actually love VCB's ambiance most among cupcake places in the metro. They have all things cute and Alice in Wonderland themed.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I'll pick other cupcakes like J Cuppacakes/ Sonja, when it comes to the cupcakes since they more or less are of the same price, but the latter ones taste better. :)
I haven't tried Sonja's yet but would definitely love too.
DeleteOMG!!! I love the interior of this place. It's super duper kawaii <3 What a cool place to photo shoot while eating cupcakes. The bubblegum cupcake is too cute to be eaten! I wish I can eat in here too.

It is indeed a nice place :)
DeleteNow I'm craving! It would be better if there is wifi though. :)
ReplyDeleteI also thought about that but with or without wifi I am still love to hang out in there.
DeleteThe place looks like pinterest in reality! I've read a lot of reviews and I honestly think that I should go out and check the place. :D
ReplyDeleteNice post!!!
You should go and check it out for yourself :)
DeleteI sense a "Sweet Tooth Party" coming. They're really craving me right now. :D
ReplyDeleteLet's parteeeeh! Hihi!
DeleteI have tried four of the flavors of cupcakes in Vanilla Bakery and liked them all. The one thing that hinders me from buying another set is the price. Whaha why are these little things so expensive? I wonder.
ReplyDeleteI don't know but honestly I find their price a little cheaper compared to others I know.
DeleteThey are like in the middle of many other bakeries. You should try Gigi Cupcakes in Eastwood. Theirs are like PHp 40-50 and each cupcake is super delicious!
Deleteoh em gee, I want I want I certainly don't need. Those look amazing! I can see why you kept your secret :D Glad you shared!
ReplyDeleteYou are must welcome :)
DeleteOMG so cute! i wish there's a place like that here! i'd totally go like all the time! hehe
ReplyDeleteHaha! I'm pretty sure you will be hanging out there all the time.
DeleteWaaaah! Now my stomach is growling! Your post makes me really hungry!! Amazing kid btw! =)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Kim :)
DeleteOhh I've been wanting to go here too. Kaso puno sila when we went sa SM Megamall ata un branch na un. Next time I'll make sure I'll dine in there :D I love love cupcakes <3 Nice interior!
ReplyDeleteYea! Punuan nga sila parati pero buti na nga lang naka-tyempo kami na saglit lang kami maghihintay.
DeleteThe ambiance is so homey and girly I guess! But I would love to go inside the store just to devour the delectable cupcakes! Got to taste the Smores! :D
ReplyDeleteYes, it is homey and girly too and just in case you got inside I salute you in advance because let us face it not all guys would be willing to go inside such cute place.
DeleteYou should have taken more pictures. I wanted to see the interior. Haha I guess I should go and see it myself, noh? Hehe
ReplyDeleteI thought this is like Sophie's Mom, but With the menu it's more like Banapple. I want to try the pasta! Hehe. Must drag bf here. Opps, I hope he'll agree to visit this girly place. Hahaha
Aww! Next time I'll take more pictures medyo madalian lang kasi talaga punta namin dyan.
DeleteTo be honest, I'm a sucker for cupcakes especially the moist chocolate cupcakes but i am most interested with Bubble Gum Cupcake!!! :)
ReplyDeleteDitto :) I'm also a sucker for moist cupcakes :)
DeleteTo be honest, I'm a sucker for cupcakes especially the moist chocolate cupcakes but i am most interested with Bubble Gum Cupcake!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThe interiors looked really cute. I'm sure my 2 y/o daughter would love having her cupcakes there. ^_^
ReplyDeleteMy daughter loved to eat there and even keeps on bugging me to go back, haha. I'm sure your daughter will love it too.
Deleteand here I was craving for cupcakes lately. I really want to experience being in a cupcake cafe (is that what it's called?XD)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your experience! It should be on my list now (this place)
I guess you can call it a cupcake cafe but I'm not so sure :)
DeleteI've been in Vanilla Cupcake Bakery's Trinoma branch and I found the ambiance really adorable. The cupcakes are quite good too, but I'll definitely be back again for its novel value! :)
ReplyDeleteI am definitely going back too :)
