These cupcakes look stunning! In fact they look so good they make you think they even taste better then they do! I've been to Bibi's 3 times now. I'm not quite sure why. maybe its been the people I was with (different each time) or the fact that all those times happened in the first 6 months of living here in Scotland and I was just drawn in by the beauty of the cupcakes... But lets break it down. they icing taste more like harden lard with sugar. its not delicious, its not smooth, the texture is hard and I do not want to eat all of it ( which is ridiculous b/c I get icing shots at a cupcake place in CA. I LOVE my icing!) Next the cake... I know its Scotland and people like their cake her dry and crumbly, but listen theres no pouring cream for the cupcakes so make mine moist! Too dry or too dense. the only one I had which I would get again IF I HAD to go back, would be the Victoria sponge cupcake. The icing was better then the others ( probably b/c it was inside and not decorative) but still just meh, nothing to rave about. Sad b/c I like a good cupcake, but this is not the place for it yet there seems to be so many Bibi's around and I can't figure out why!?
