Am I imagining things or has there, since sometime last year, been a cupcake fad of sorts? No less than three chains have opened in Sydney selling overpriced and oversweet and overdesigned cupcakes, some of which I'm forced to eat because some one else likes one occasionally.
These new cupcake places don't just sell little things with pink icing and sparkly bits on the top designed for little princesses - the new ones look like they could be worn on women's hats at Royal Ascot..
In addition unlike their ugly big cousin, the stoic muffin, which generally gets thrown in a paper bag without much care and attention, these new creations are gently wrapped in an origami like paper box with cellophane window to show off your faffy purchase to the world.
So is this just a Sydney or Australia thing?

Update 23/10: Well I got an answer faster than I thought. It's all to do with Sex and the City is it?

an easy mistake made and me being pedantic and anal.. but 'their ugly big cousin' as opposed to 'they're ugly big cousin'
Did you do that photoshopping all by yourself Ronan? Good man.
Awesome photoshopping!
@alan - you sure I wrote "they're" ? - look again! Zing!
Yeah I thought the photoshopping worked out pretty well..originally those ladies were naked! Had to cover them up as this is PG blog after all..
