Their Cupcake of the Week, the Sno-Cap cupcake, reminds us of chilly days where we can just sit down, drink a cup of hot cocoa, and gobble a piece of delicious cupcake while basking in the Christmas breeze. The Sno-Cap cupcake uses devil’s food cake as base with peaks of meringue icing, topped with white nonpareils. It will be available in M Bakery’s store until December 20.
Available for: Take-out, pick-up, and delivery via Lalamove or GrabExpress.
