Cupcakes in AD?
Not sure if the cupcake trend has taken off in the UAE but if it has can anyone recommend a nice bakery or cafe? I'm thinking of the large fluffy types you get in the Hummingbird Bakery as opposed to the overly gluey things you get in newsagents...

Every time I see the title of this thread I think of RoadKing. Strange.

A sweet and sticky end! Much like the bottom of my white chocolate cupcake.
Yum.

Recently saw a girl with two cupcakes tattooed on her back shoulder.

Re: Cupcakes in AD?
A cupcake tattoo is pushing the limits.
I don't like tattoos and find them offputting. I don't want to wake up every day to see a damn tattoo slowly fade and wrinkle and turn into an ugly blob over the years.
Whilst I've seen people with amazing tattoos done by talented artists, most are awful and getting a tattoo tells a lot about the type of person you are. Most of these women aren't going to be compatible with me.
