Marshmallow Grove Cupcakes

Cupcakes are fine, but the owner is very rude. I only had a short interaction with her a while back during an extended stay in the UK, but it was enough to compel me to leave this review.

This was the first cupcake stall that I noticed in the bustling St George’s Market a few years ago. This is certainly not a place to visit if you’re worried about an expanding waistline or are on Atkins.
A small modest cupcake stall that has a multitude of sugary delights. The last time I was there with a few people we tried the Oreo cupcake which is based on and fashioned like an Oreo biscuity. Crumbling soft butter laden sponge with a rich dark chocolate bitterness sandwiched between a layer creamy butter filling. Superbly textured, rich and divine.
The company does a comprehensive range of cupcakes in small bitesizes and standard. They also provide catered services for events.
I’ve provided the full list available below. The range is extensive and adventurous. You won’t be disappointed with the range available.
I would say that you do pay for the privilege of home-​made quality baking but then again if you are going to treat yourself it might as well be something of the utmost quality.
Spiced Carrot Cake: Tender, delicately spiced carrot cake with golden raisins.
Red Velvet: Luscious red vanilla sponge with a dash of cocoa and vanilla frosting.
Orange Blossom & Vanilla: Zesty, melt-​in-​your-​mouth orange blossom sponge with vanilla frosting.
Chocolate Guinness: Crème fraîche and Guinness give this rich chocolate sponge an edgy finish.
Reese’s Peanut Butter: The most sumptuous brownie sponge with a shot of peanut butter inside.
Blueberries & Cream: Summery sponge with gushy bits of blueberry oozing everywhere.
Chili Chocolate: Subtle but scrumptuous chocolate sponge infused with homemade chili and a touch of cayenne.
Chocolate & Orange: An irresistible combination of sultry orange and rich chocolate milk.
Brownies & Cream: Swiss Meringue Buttercream frosting on our favorite fluffy brownie sponge.
Green Tea: Delicious and rare Japanese macha tea folded into a soft sponge.
Chocolate & Honeycomb: Dark chocolate sponge with honey cream frosting.
Chocolate & Peppermint: Chocolate sponge with mint cream frosting and chocolate chips.
Turkish Delight: Turkish delight chocolate bar folded into chocolate sponge, with rose frosting.
Strawberry Cheesecake: Fresh strawberry sponge with rich vanilla cream cheese frosting and a sprinkling of biscuit.
Lemon Drizzle: Zingaling lemon sponge with a double topping of crisp lemon and sugar topping, and lemony frosting.
Raspberry & Lemon: Raspberry and lemon cake, vanilla frosting. Simple and delicious.
Chocolate Devil’s Food: An American classic; hunky cocoa sponge with cocoa and cream cheese frosting

Before writing this review, I have to attach a bit of a bias warning to it as Marshmallow Grove Cupcakes is run by a good friend of mine. But being the foodie that I am, my stomach does not discriminate; it knows what it likes and what it dislikes. And it LOVES Marshmallow Grove Cupcakes. If I had one last meal to choose from, it would be Sarah’s (the owner) Reese’s Pieces Cupcake Special. anyways, enough drooling. These have to be the fluffiest, lightest cupcakes I’ve ever tasted. Along with the creamy icing, they just melt in your mouth and you just want to wait 15 seconds longer than you should before chewing so that you can savour the taste. I would order a batch of Marshmallow’s cupcakes every week if my thighs would let me. As well as being on sale at the Marshmallow Grove stall every Saturday, you can also find MG cupcakes in venues across the city such as Belfast Coffee and Co on Royal Avenue. Now: go, buy, eat and savour.
