Key Lime Cupcake - $3.95
Available online (minimum order of 6), or can be purchased individually from stores.
"Moist and lush lime and coconut cupcakes topped with pale green icing and crystalised lemon and lime zest" - babycakes.net.au

Moist (almost sticky) cake, cannot taste any lime or coconut in the mix however.

I love the lemon and lime zest with the crystallised sugar - it makes for a beautiful crunch, and complements the softness of the frosting marvellously!

Unfortunately, the frosting has nowhere near the amount of lime flavour I expected, and it is hard to eat as the zest is all stuck together and doesn't like to come apart unless you break it with your hands.

Total Score: 3/5

Queen of Hearts Mini Mini - $2.00
No description available online. Can be purchased individually in stores.
NB: 2 bite size

Adorable mini tart (with soft pastry!), filled with a strawberry jelly filling, topped with a pastry heart. The pastry is soft and easy to eat - it doesn't crumble after the first bite. The strawberry filling is very sweet - almost too sweet, and for me that's very strange. No frosting on this one. I'm a little disappointed, but overall, not too bad. I don't recommend more than one though.

Total Score: 2.5/5

White Chocolate Cheesecake Mini Mini - $2.00
Available online (minimum of 6), or can be purchased individually in stores.
"Sweet pastry case filled with dreamy cheesecake and topped with a dark chocolate curl. " - babycakes.net
NB: 2 bite size

The chocolate curl has no fridge taste (thank god!), and is crisp and rather sweet for dark chocolate. The pastry is soft, perhaps a little too soft for a cheesecake filling, but it doesn't crumble. The white chocolate filling is decadent! Just as soft and smooth as the regular frosting! Overall, however, it lacks crunch of any sort, and is a little on the bland side, even if eaten with the chocolate (instead of seperately).

Total Score: 3.5/5
