Some things, like Victoria Beckham’s hair colour and the Hurley love triangle, are dull.
Other things, like Lola’s cupcakes, are not.
Made from a delightfully light sponge, with no preservatives or colourants, the fluffy little mounds come in coffee, banana, chocolate, carrot, lemon and vanilla, along with specials like strawberry cloud, rocky road and choc ’n’ cherry.
Each cake is smothered in rich butter icing and topped with chocolate shavings or candy hearts and stars. You can also have your own wording dribbled skillfully on top.
Order a box from Lola’s Kitchen and it’ll be delivered to anywhere in London (possible charge for some postcodes) or buy directly from Raoul’s Deli and gobble them up at Raoul’s Cafe across the road.
Go on, admit it.
You can hardly contain your excitement.
