123 Cake has just opened last year. It is in North Melbourne on my way to work and about 5 mins from RMIT and Melbourne Uni by tram. It is also near the MELD offices and Arrow on Swanston.
One day I saw the place and how cute it was and I really wanted to visit. I know I'm not a child but I love these cute quirky places.
I had bought a $9 Living Social voucher which entitled me to two cupcakes, tea or coffee, four decorating things and a huge bag of icing.
The lady who owns the place was very friendly
The coffee was meh and burnt, but I wasn't here for that. I was here for the decorating fun. A plain cupcake normally costs $3.50 ($4 for gluten free). On top of that you pay $2 for a big bag of icing ( you can choose between eight flavours). Decorations is normally $0.50 each or 3 for $1.50. Altogether its $7-$8. Throw in a coffee and it sets you back by $10.
The fun part you get to choose your own combinations and make it yourself. You can take pictures of your cake and post it to their Facebook page and you might be able to win a price.
The cupcakes tastes like the ones your mum makes at home. Yummy.
I loved choosing the decorations and making one with my initials on it. I used the cream cheese icing and loved it.
Verdict: Get in touch with your inner child and have some fun here. Its a great chance to get away from the books for a while.
Come here for experience not the food or the coffee
