Cupcakes By Sonja - Riyadh

Cupcakes by Sonja is the first store that sold cupcakes exclusively. Now, they have extended their menu to cakes, doughnuts and beverages. We visited their branch in BGC, their place is really cute. It’s like those stores that you see in old movies. I specifically like their window shed. They have a couple of tables and chairs outside, then a counter with stools inside. Their walls were painted red and white then they have a display of their scrumptious cupcakes. I ordered their choco cream pie. It has three layers, an oreo cookie crust followed by silky chocolate mousse and then topped with pillowy whipped cream and a sprinkle of oreo bits. It’s bigger than the ordinary cupcake and they were generous on the fillings as well. The combination of crispy crust, dense chocolatey filling, and fluffy cream garnish was really good. You can have these delicious sweets delivered to your home. Just fill up and send an order form to their official accounts.

It was another lazy afternoon and I thought of eating something sweet. So I went out, stroll a little then I saw this shop once again and it has been a while since I've had their famous cupcakes and their complementary drinks. As I entered, the staffs are all smiling at me and I really felt very welcome (maybe because I was the only dine-in customer that time). The space inside is still quite small for me but they are tables and chairs outside to accomodate more customers. From their menu, I chose to try their cakes this time and it satisfied me being a sweet tooth person. I chose the rainbow cake slice with the cafe latte. The cake is moist, delicate and of course colorful. I really can say that cake and coffee blends with each other.

All the cupcakes in the world, so far, this is my favorite.

Yes yes yes! I love this place and their cupcakes. The red velvet rocks and the banana monkey cupcake is excellent! I also love the flourless chocolate cake. The cupcakes here are not as sweet and not as rich as M bakery.

How I missed Cupcakes by Sonja! I think it's been a year since I ever had a cupcake/cake from them. Glad that Ms. Gel agreed on this to be our breakfast! She ordered a reversed salted caramel cake slice cappuccino, while I ordered a rainbow cake slice hot chocolate. Both of the cakes are freshly baked plus chilled and scrumptious! I liked my hot pairing very muchhh. Ms. Gel even took out a red velvet cupcake since she missed it so much too. They also have pride cupcakes still available for this month!
