Cupcakes and snowdrop

Last week a new cupcake shop opened in nearby St Andrews. Lor was immediately on the case and we set off with K to check it out.

K was doubly excited as we got to drive there in "Lor Lor's" new car!

Meet Snowdrop



Is this not the cutest little car EVER?! (sorry for the wheelie bin in the pic, it was collection day)

The interior is so retro, modern and super cute and just suits Lor's sweet personality down to the ground.








The shop was really nice. There wasn't a lot of choice as we got there too late, once it is gone it is gone. This is a good thing , I guess, at least we know they are all freshly made.



we ended up with 2 vanilla cupcakes, one after eight cupcake ( chocolate sponge with peppermint icing and an after eight mint on the top) and then another vanilla cupcake with chocolate sprinkles. No prizes for guessing who wanted the pink cake!

The cakes were nice, but not a patch on Lor's red velvets or vanilla cupcakes mmmmmmm









Here is K enjoying her cake in the back of snowdrop, I was frantically trying to cover her up with my coat so she didn't get sprinkles all over the interior! Not that Lor minded but I would have been gutted if we had been the first to make a mess in the new car!


We sat down by the west sands and enjoyed the sea views while we stuffed our faces   delicately nibbled on our purchases



Sorry it was freezing so you will have to look through the windscreen too :)


This week we are going to source a recipe to make the minty cakes. I will keep you posted if we find one.

What a delicious combination of the fun of having a new car, a tasty new cupcake and a cozy cold that makes us cuddle up. Thank you for it!

Oh! I want that car! You can keep the cupcakes--more of a savory (savoury for you-lol) person myself but I love that little car!!

That might be the cutest car I have ever seen and the interior is wonderful!

You should get free cupcakes just for showing up in that car.

I have been trying hard to win a Little Debbie Cupcake car. That would combine your 2 best things! It is a tragedy to be the first to mess in a new car, but I think sprinkles would be forgiveable.
