Title: M&S Chocolate Cupcakes
Post by: drterror666 on April 18, 2009, 06:38:19 pm
Today I bought a pack of four chocolate cupcakes from M&S in their new Cake Shop range.  They were really, really nice!  They're chocolate sponge with a semi-solid dark chocolate filling covered in thick, chocolate buttercream.  They cost £2.49 (usually £2.99) at the moment because they're on offer and they're definitely worth it.  There are also others in the range, like Carrot, Strawberry & Cream and Lemon Meringue flavours.

This isn't any cupcake, this is an M&S cupcake!  ;D

Oh, and not to mention the new layered chocolate cake from the same range.  It looks really yummy!  WOO, HOO!!!  :P

Today I bought the raspberry and white chocolate ones. Still on offer £2.49 for 4. These could be the best cake i've ever tasted.

I tried the Raspberry and White Chocolate ones today and they were yummy, but I still feel the Strawberry & Cream ones have the edge.  Of course, the chocolate ones beat them both!

I've only seen the Raspberry and White Chocolate and the Belgian choc ones. I may try the chocolate ones this week.

I had a Greggs triple choc muffin today. It was delicious! Gooey chocolate on the inside along with chunks of chocolate embedded in the sponge.

Greggs triple choc cookies are good too.  In fact most of what Greggs sell is good - I have to walk past on the other side of the road as there's one too close to where I work.

I pass three on my way to work so that's a jam donut, a choc crispy cake and a muffin. ;D

I have GC and i found them a bit sickly.
Is it just my local Greggs that have shrunk gingerbread men?

Bovril crisps were nice, but I can't remember if they were veggie or not.
