The Cupcake Project Part Two

Like what we've said the last time, we had this hunt for cupcake bakeries that could satisfy our hunger for those cute little cupcakes – and guess what? We found another one, and that would be Vanilla Cupcake Bakery! The lovely bakery is located in G/F Glorietta 3, Ayala Center, Makati City  . The place was downright cozy, the ambience was great, and the vivid hues were already treats to the eye! In our opinion, it’s the perfect place for a girls’ day out because of the lovely interior design, but well, it’s a place for everyone! You’ll love the  Shabby Chic interiors.But of course, the colorful walls were no match for the cupcakes they serve.

We have this secret, okay? We have this unfathomable devotion to red velvet cupcakes. Every time we go to cupcake shops, a red velvet cupcake would always be on the top of the list! Deciding what to order is always one of the hardest things to do, but we’ve came up with a decision after a few minutes. We ordered a Red Velvet Cupcake (duh!), a Vanilla Blue Cupcake, and a Strawberry Cheesecake. It was heaven in a bite! Four thumbs up for Vanilla!

Basically, that’s the end of our little cupcake-bakery-hunt, but make sure to comment down your suggestions! Like what we’ve said before, these cupcakes are perfect gifts to everybody – and since Mother’s Day is fast approaching, don’t forget to buy them cupcakes (red velvet would be nice ha-ha)!

The Cupcake Project

There are three things in this world that we can never live without -- and that would be books, music, and most importantly, cupcakes. We have a terrible sweet tooth, you see, and we suggest that don’t even dare place your cupcake within our range of sight or we’d devour it, with or without your consent. Ha-ha!

So anyways, we decided to look for cupcake shops that could satisfy our inexplicable hunger for CUPCAKES, and guess what? We found  Larcy's Cupcakerycafé.

 Larcy’s Cupcakerycafé is located in 178 Aguirre Street, BF Homes, Parañaque. When we first entered their place, we were immediately welcomed by the cozy colors and the sweet fragrance of mocha.

 The shades of pink and brown were a treat to the eye, but nothing could be compared to the cupcakes they serve!

Resisting a cupcake is difficult, but in our opinion, choosing a cupcake from a pool of mouth-watering cupcakes is way harder! It was hard not to order every cupcake on display! After contemplating on what to order, we decided to order their bestselling Pink Velvet, Cookies & Cream Cheesecake, and Valrhona Choco Nutella. After that sweet treat, we decided that we should come up with a word to describe their flavor: Divine.

In short, Larcy’s Cupcakerycafé is surely a place for cupcake-lovers of all ages! And now that Mother’s Day is fast approaching, why not try heading to Larcy’s? A little snack would be nice, but before you leave, make sure to buy a cupcake as your Mother’s Day gift to your mom! :’)

FANGIRL

Hello! First of all, I truly apologize for being inactive. School was really pressuring, you see. Now that it’s Summer, I promise to make up on that!

April 26, 2014 was one of the most adrenaline-filled days of my life. Do you want to know why? It’s all because I met three of New York’s Times Bestselling authors! Tahereh Mafi, author of the Shatter Me trilogy, Veronica Rossi, author of Under the Never Sky trilogy, and Ransom Riggs, author of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Hollow City had a book signing event which was held in Glorietta’s Activity Center, and I was one of the 2000+ fans who attended the event.

 The place was surely filled with hyper bookworms, all excited to see their favorite authors, and to have their books signed.

The registration started at 10 a.m., and I made sure to be there at 10 sharp. Upon arriving at the said mall, I thought I was early, but I was wrong! More than 500 people already arrived before me, and I was surely shocked. For an hour, I waited in line just to have my books registered! 

At 2:30 in the afternoon, the authors showed up, and my, the noise was deafening! The fans screamed and squealed, hoping that their idol would notice them. And of course, I was one of them. We waved our books like madmen to show our support to the geniuses that stood a few meters away from us. The emcee interviewed the trio, and the authors answered the questions giddily. One of the highlights of the event would be the Ransereh kiss! Ha-ha. You could just imagine how the crowd went wild when it happened! Another highlight would be the fans who were summoned to the stage because it was said that they have been waiting for the event since 1:54 a.m.! The authors hugged those girls, and of course, they were the ones who were called first. I was envious.

 

At almost 4 in the afternoon, the book signing started. I was the 640th in line and I waited for three more hours. But well, the waiting was worth it! Not only did I have my book signed, but I also met two fangirls and actually made friends! 

When it was my turn, I was star-struck and I couldn’t form any words! My, Tahereh laughed at me!   

I handed her a letter I wrote and asked for a hug, and before I left, she said, “It was so nice to meet you!”

Believe me, I was close to tears.

 

That day was so overwhelming. I mean, meeting your favorite author, creator of your favorite characters, is a really great experience. It was fantastic! To be honest, I cannot find an adjective that is capable of describing what I felt that day! That day was surely memorable, and I am really thankful that God made that day possible. Also, I really want to thank my parents and my little sister who endured the 9 hours of waiting with me. 

Before I end I just want to share a quote from one of my favorite authors.

“Books are easily destroyed. But words will live

 as long as people can remember them.” – Tahereh Mafi, Unravel Me
